    the best Girls and Animation. i really love the train scene, it keeps me wanting more of it.
    Well to be HONEST this game has far more better Quality of Animation and Models than the other games. it makes me love them all. i might support the creator if he will update more consistent and not over delayed. I like the story very straightforward. All in All I really love the Game. thankd Irpaheus

    My usual disclaimers when writing reviews on here are that A. I am here for the "plot" not the plot and B. I generally dislike visual novels. So take both of those into consideration for my review when thinking about this game.

    So, first off, anyone on here saying the writing and models are amazing are just wrong. The models and animation are all fairly mediocre. Don't get me wrong, there's nothing bad here, it's just nothing to write home about. The writing is generally okay as well, but it's a porn game so some suspension of disbelief is required and it's not like there's really incredible depth of character on display. It's enough to keep you invested though (I do wish the creator would have made a bigger deal of the supernatural elements earlier though so they don't come as such a surprise by 3/4 of the way through the current version). There are, however, a few sections where there is a bit more of a focus on "character development" and honestly those sections were just more boring and really dragged on.

    The real draw of this game is that there are a lot of sex scenes. They are extremely regular and with a lot of different girls. It's a proper harem game where instead of just one sex scene with different girls (who are then ostensibly in your harem) you will repeatedly come back to them as time goes on. Also, this is why the lacklustre model/animation quality isn't really an issue because it's a case of quantity over quality and I'd argue that in this case it actually works out. Plus, while they're not SUPER amazing, the models for the girls are all hot, so that's also a positive.

    A final positive is that the kinks worked into the game are all things I specifically enjoy. There's force/rape, impregnation, master/slave elements which are all excellent (although actually a lot of people in the reviews seem to say it's "too rapey" but I actually would have preferred it if there were more instances of genuine forceful stuff). So for fap material, which again is why I'm here, this was pretty great.

    Now, downsides: there are four really big problems that I take issue with. As I said, I dislike visual novels in general, so I automatically remove a star for that anyway. And unfortunately I think this game rather demonstrates the worst aspects of visual novels in that currently there is basically only ONE route through the story. The interaction is few and far between, and when you are ostensibly given branching choices for the most part (aside from one or two instances) they actually either lead to a game over or don't have any affect on the outcome. Essentially, there is very little interaction, which is a big downside for me.

    Second is actually more technical. I really hope that when the game is finished that the creator goes through it a few times to clean it up and actually decide what sort of game he is trying to make. On more than one occasion it feels like he was originally planning a dating sim type game. For example you are told "X girl can now visit you every night" but there is never an option for that, so it was like he initially wanted to have time-slots and actions in those time-slots but completely forgot about it along the way... Except this happens on more than one occasion. I just want him to commit more to actually making a game that is a visual novel and not a dating sim. Similarly there are a lot of instances of changes in the UI and QOL issues which just need smoothing over and can be jarring to experience (for instance, why is there a shop that requires money for the first 5 hours and then the requirement of money vanishes, because you can't actually earn money in the game).

    Third: there are a few instances of straight shota involved in the game. Not in very sexual scenes, but treading the line just enough to make me uncomfortable (for instance the "sexual education" scene was really awkward and I genuinely believe should be utterly cut from the game).

    Lastly, and this for me is the really big issue that knocked it down from mediocre to poor. While the writing is mostly fine, the humour is absolutely gawdawful. The creator fills just about every second line with forced "punny" references to everything from Warhammer 40K and anime to memes and current events from the last few years. I have no issues with this happening occasionally, but good lord is it overdone here. Particularly when it's in the middle of sex scenes and the like as well, it just grated on my mind... He really, really, needs to tone that down and remove about 95% of them to allow the game to actually have a bit more flow and MAYBE it might actually get a laugh from me. He also has a really weird habit of occasionally trying to show off how intelligent the MC is (and presumably show off himself) by shoehorning really obscure art and science knowledge into dialogue which again was just massively jarring and out of place. I have seen one other review describe it as "self-aware" and I genuinely take issue with that. "Self-indulgent" is the better phrase.

    Tl;dr the game is great for fapping because of how regular the sex is, which is the only reason I could get through it all because of just how absolutely dire the dialogue and internal monologue can be.

    Well planned plot, serious dialogues that one do not skip, beautiful girls with well balanced characters. Japanese atmosphere like one in "Your name" cartoon.
    Suggest to anyone who likes school settings and immersive games with a certain level of unpredictability.

    Funny as hell, pun-central, meme-centric, historic and current-event focused... I've played sssooo many adult games nothing even compares to the text in this game. Oh, yeah, forgot... woman are smokin, sex-a-plenty, great animations, and story has all kinds of twists. 6 stars IMO!

    Very funny, very sexy, very well written, and an interesting plot. There aren't a whole lot of animations, but when there are they're well made. The story can be a bit confusing to follow at times, but there are helpful recaps at certain points in the game. Can't wait for the next update!

    I gave it a 2 because some of the girls are decent, likeable characters.

    And that was about all I liked.

    I hated the MC. Self entitled, whiny little shit with daddy issues getting "revenge" on a group of girls who have no fucking clue what's going on.

    I admit, I went in knowing very little and that is my fault. I saw the word Waifu and a bunch of attractive models and expected something far different than I got.

    That word is so misplaced here.

    Waifu, a term commonly used to describe a character that someone has great affection for, sometimes romantic. Neither of which are shown in this game where the girls are pretty much rape bait.

    From raping his step sister in his sleep to being followed onto a train by a girl only for her to get assaulted by 3 guys. You can stop it but if you try too soon you fail so you have to let her get sexcually assaulted before you can stop it going further. Doesn't matter though she completely loses her mind later anyway.

    Throw in a girl sleeping on a bench being assaulted, rape in the toilets and the absolute worst mother character i've ever had the misfortune to lay my eyes on in a VN. She gets nothing right, it's like she's a lost extra from a slapstick b movie.

    And this is the good karma route by the way. Rape, sexually assault, mind fuckery and turning these "waifu's" (so out of place) into drooling cum dumps. All in the name of good karma.

    This is one I just struggled with. On the one hand it does have a lot of candidates for "waifu" material but on the other the MC is just a fucking douche and it's so damn rapey for a good karma route I know damn well i'll never see the bad karma one. This was enoguh for me.

    I'm sure plenty of people will enjoy it and I urge people to make their own minds up, reviews are just personal opinions after all.

    This is the best-made sex-game I played until now.
    +Simple Visual Novel Point&Click-Gameplay with option to 'rewind' after you chose an option
    + Huge cast of characters all very attractive and different
    +Sex scenes are fluidly animated
    +Nice story about revenge with a MC who is at the same time competent and flawed and will not annoy you
    +I also like the use of dreams and horny imaginations to fullfill certain fetishes without it impacting the story instead of forcing it in and so lowering the quality.
    +But nothing beats that wonderful entertaining and self-aware writing with tons of old and modern pop-culture-references. You read those lines and think to yourself: "those guys have fun making this game" ^^
    You don't the sex scenes to want to continue playing, which is in my opinion the sign that you did everything right in game of this sort.

    I also have no problem with the missing of impacting choices or the Karma-system as I think the devs want to finish one whole storyline first and then implement minor changes to it.

    Awesome job until now, do your best in the future.

    It is rare that I enjoy this kind of game but this one is really good. The characters are varied and well modeled. The story is fun and not too complicated (enough to make you want to follow it without going through all the dialogues). I can't wait for the rest to come !

    TL:DR: Amazing game, full of content, really nicely developed characters and storyline, and best CGI i've seen in a game so far.

    Extremely compelling plotwise, it has some really dark moments and some very memorable endings (game overs), that add a lot of flavor to the experience, as well as some really funny puns. Very nicely balanced character personalities, with unique and identifiable traits. The development may be slightly quick for some of them, but it also makes it nice and fast paced.

    All the characters are hot, not an easy feat. Shitload of joke and real life event humor. Funny noises. Complicated backstory and plot for a porn game. ATM 0.7.1a lots of content, easily over 10 hours, if you read the story, and you should.

    I've played almost every game on the site and this was amazing, cannot wait to see the finished product. Thank you for this game. Sexy characters, great scenes and the story is nice.
    5/5 excellent please don't abandon

    Pros:
    -Lots of really hot girls
    -decent animations
    -potentially fun story if karma system gets refined

    Cons:
    -"fake" choices. Silly use of game overs force you to rollback or reload so there really is only 1 way forward
    -karma points make no sense as they are and have no impact on game anyway
    -having so many characters means each one gets less content. If you like one of the girls who hasn't got content in a while, you're pretty much out of luck.
    -It's called Waifu Academy but the MC really doesn't treat the girls like "waifus", it's more about getting revenge against them.

    This game is probably the best renpy game
    -the story is great and i haven't really skipped much of the dialog
    -the character art is very good and pretty all of them are very well made

    -only downside is probably the gallery since its pretty buggy and the name is set to bob but i usually make saves for all the h scenes anyways

    Oh damn...this game is good fun and exciting. Looking forward to see more content. It is very interesting coz I am not much into hentai and this game is mixture of so different ways of telling erotic scenes and situation. Great work so far!

    REALLY good renders, good animations (looks like it's from Honey Select though, so it loses a few points there) and lots of content. The story is interesting enough, however the hardcore memeing in the dialogue gets to be a little old and distracting.

    Overall I'd say it's worth playing.

    I've been with this game from the beginning, when I had my first profile. Got BANNED, hahaha. Whatever. Slight changes to the mechanics and a redeemable story line. For those who can't stomach REVENGA! Onward so, your storytelling with these (semi) relatable characters is pure gold. You should have an animated series or something I would be there. Praise the writers for this fantastic ride. I usually don't call this Visual Novel like genre a game so to speak but in your case it doesn't have to be. I'll be here waiting and believe me, I don't praise things that much. Until the next update, ttfn

    I am going to up date this as I go along but so far the game is off to a bad start. It first begins with just a bunch of exposition nothing wrong with that but the command of the language and the flow is mediocre at best. Next the game gives you some choices nothing wrong with that the more choices the better. The problem though is the game gives the illusion of choice by making the choices loop repeatedly until you choose the one the game wants you to choose. Other times they give you just one choice which is even more frustrating as it is the only option meaning the developer putted it there just to make the game feel interactive.

    Oh and the MC just comes of as a narcissistic self entitles brat. In the beginning he keeps going on and on about how he will have his revenge and have what is "rightfully" his. Which just makes him even more unlikable in my personal opinion.

    Ooh

    Pros
    - Everything. This game is one of the best games on this site
    - Every girl is a Waifu as the title states.
    - Every scene is animated. One of which (Sheila Bathroom scene) is the best scene period. Also best girl.
    - This game ticks off every fetish box. And although it's Linear, allows you to explore what would happen if you branched off the beaten path.

    Cons
    - Hypocrisy is ridiculous at times. You save a girl from a rapist thug just so you can assault her in her sleep later.
    - Repeat Scene Filler
    - Too Rapey at times.
    - Magical Roofie Drug
    - Forced Sleep Molestation
    - There should be subtitles for the slang and references at times
    - Dev should go back and update from the beginning, all of the new updates ruin continuity. When the game is complete it will be obvious when the game received updates.
    - The underage content and NTR moment. (Only a couple of instances)

    Wide range of cast, not everyone's a slut, the dialogue is intriguing, and the story is decent.

    It gets a high praise from me though because I laughed pretty hard at some of the jokes, and because it's stayed away from NTR so far. Hope that remains so, would seriously sour the mood.
