She states early on that she owes him her life. She’s been assisting Mutsuki in his work as a sorcerer for some time and takes care of him, almost like a loving housewife would. Midari (also known as Miranda Lust) is a succubus, but a rather innocent one which is a key part of her story. Amusingly, she’s willing to share Mutsuki in every route but her own. She’s quite an amusing character at times, coming off as serious at times, but occasionally doing off-the-wall things like stealing the Principal’s streaming service access. Hanako is awkwardly trying to get her feelings across, using things seen in dramas since she has no experience with humans. There are certainly cute moments in this route though. Hanako even ‘kabedons’ Mutsuki at one point. It felt like it came out of nowhere though, and she can then become forceful. In a way, this makes sense as she’s not human and doesn’t really understand them in many ways. It does have some plot outside of the romance, but it’s quite minor.Īt one point, Hanako suddenly starts talking about love and wants Mutsuki to teach her about it. She plays a role in giving him information about the conflicts between the local spirits but doesn’t have many other appearances and there’s not much relationship development. In the common route, it never feels like Mutsuki has any interest in Hanako. Actually justifying her behavior this way made her character a lot more interesting.Īs the ‘weird girl’, Hanako is the character I thought I’d like the most but ended up as last on my list. Her relationship with Makina and her difficult past are key parts of her character and why she can come off as harsh at times. In terms of personality, Yukina is a classic tsundere and puts on a haughty air at times. It kept me hooked until the end, and I felt like it wrapped up nicely for the most part. There are many secrets to reveal and quite a lot of twists in this plot-filled route. Along with this, it shows some of the history of how Mutsuki became a sorcerer. Her route isn’t just a romance between her and Mutsuki, but is more about the relationship between Yukina and Makina and their history. Even in the common route, Yukina seems very much like the main heroine of Tamayura Mirai due to her involvement and the amount of screen time she gets in comparison to the other heroines. Both can see spirits and have had problems all their life due to it. After a rather unfortunate first meeting, events end up tying them to one of Mutsuki’s cases. Yukina and her close friend Makina are new to town. That’s not to say the heroines don’t have time focused on them, but most of the fifteen-hour playtime did seem to be spent on moving the story along, over the more casual moments with the heroines. There’s very much a focus on lore and a build-up to reveals here. Tamayura Mirai is a moege, but it feels like the plot takes center stage over slice-of-life romance. This is something that Tamayura Mirai does particularly well, along with sneaking in little hints for future events, that I often only realized in retrospect. These early cases are used to work in a lot of worldbuilding too, which is used well to set up later plot points. Each individual case has more to it than I expected, with history to uncover and occasional unexpected twists. The common route has him solving ‘cases’ such as finding out why a werewolf is hiding in the local school, or getting involved in a conflict between the local water and mountain spirits. It does a brilliant job of introducing us to these duties by having Mutsuki be approached for help by the local spirits. Unlike many visual novels, Tamayura Mirai rarely lingers on school life, instead focusing more on the duties of a sorcerer and the stories of each heroine. Mutsuki is still studying sorcery, though he’s a regular student outside of that. Tamayura Mirai by developer Azurite follows Mutsuki, a sorcerer and the one who keeps the peace between the spiritual residents of this rural town. While most can’t see it, it’s a place where spirits are easily found for those with the ability. Spiritual power flows from the very ground in Fukano.
