Please Bang My Wife 2

Release date: 2018-11-30

Developer: Atelier Sakura

English publisher: asehpe (as a fan-patch)

"My Dear Wife, Mariko's Report" is a sequel to the 2012 visual novel "Please Bang My Wife", released more than six years after the original. While I wasn't a fan of the prequel, the sequel is an improvement in multiple areas, showing that the interim period did some good to the developers and they managed to improve on their formula.

Please Bang My Wife Mini-Review

 

Title: Ai Suru Tsuma, Mariko ga Rinshitsu de Dakareru Made ~Anata ga Shiranai Koto, Kare ga Takusan Oshiete Kuremashita~

Alias: Please Bang My Wife

Release date: 2012-04-27

English release date: 2016-09-30

Developer: Atelier Sakura

"Please Bang My Wife", as it is known in the West, is yet another NTR-themed nukige from Atelier Sakura, though this one does something different with its premise. It doesn't really save it from the mediocrity, but I appreciate the effort.

Marina's Cuckolding Report 2 Review

 

Title: Kashidashi Tsuma, Marina no "Netorase" Houkoku 2 Case. Moto AV Dan'yuu & Binkan Tsuma

Original title: 貸し出し妻、満里奈の“ネトラセ”報告2 CASE.元AV男優＆敏感妻

Alias: Marina's Cuckolding Report 2

Release date: 2014-08-29

English release date: 2021-07-12

Developer: Atelier Sakura

English publisher: Capu Translations (as a fan-patch)

"Marina's Cuckolding Report 2" (MCR2) is the second part in the netorase-focused Marina trilogy, and incidentally the last in the series to be translated. The latter happened due to the game changing the engine for the second iteration, and none of those who showed an interest in translating it had any know-how of how to crack it. Eventually the problem was overcome, and now the whole trilogy has been translated for the fans.

Marina's Cuckolding Report Review

 

Title: Kashidashi Tsuma, Marina no "Netorase" Houkoku Binkan Tsuma to Zetsurin Daigakusei

Original title: 貸し出し妻、満里奈の“ネトラセ”報告 敏感妻と絶倫大学生

Alias: Marina's Cuckolding Report: Sensitive Wife and Great Fuck College Student

Release date: 2013-09-27

English release date: 2017-08-11

Developer: Atelier Sakura

English publisher: MangaGamer

"Marina's Cuckolding Report" (MCR) is the first entry (not counting the side-stories) in the Marina trilogy - a Japanese visual novel series, which itself is a part of a much larger collective of stories centered on netorase (or "cuckolding", as it is translated in the official English release). Sadly, only the first game in the trilogy (and another title from the larger series) has been officially translated in English, however fan-translators came to the rescue. The other parts of the trilogy recently received unofficial translations, which prompted me to pick up the first title to check it out.

What's Mine Is Yours: Season 2 Review

 

Title: What's Mine Is Yours: Season 2

Release date: 2020-09-27

Developer & publisher: VitalSigns

 

Sometimes when writing a review it's a good idea to observe the developer's perspective about his creation. That gives us some insight into the creator's mindset and how they feel about their game. So, let's go and see what VitalSigns says about the continuation of of his cuckqueaning adventure:

Season 2 is probably the worst part of the series, it quickly became a case study in "what not to do" as I systemically fell into every pitfall new writers make.

Okay... Hmmm, I didn't expect that, but at least the author is self-critical. Let's see if his criticism has a basis in reality, shall we?

What's Mine Is Yours: Season 1 Review

 

Title: What's Mine Is Yours: Season 1

Release date: 2020-08-29

Developer & publisher: VitalSigns

I am hard pressed to think of another fetish as underrepresented, both among the English translated and originally English language visual novels, as cuckqueaning. Up until now I was aware of only one translated VN dealing with this subject, so I'm really glad that a developer by the name of VitalSigns is making a series of short novels specifically revolving around this fetish. Let's try the first of those novels, and see if there is anything worth reading within.
