Kyonyuu Fantasy Gaiden/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • All There in the Manual The game has plenty of recapping and nods back to the first game.
  • Alternate Continuities This, like the first game, has a couple of alternate routes/endings and one true ending.
  • And the Fandom Rejoiced You bet your ass they did when it was announced this sequel was coming out west. Now all we need is for them to announce the next in the series too!
  • Babies Ever After Given the fact that Lute is said to have sex with pretty much all the girls in his harem on a daily basis AND the fact that he has been doing this nearly every day since the end of the last game (at least a year or more), the only way to explain how none of the girls have become pregnant would be if they have magical birth control in their world and nobody mentions it.
  • Color-Coded for Your Convenience The Cardinals and assassins all look the same except for the color variation of their outfits.
  • Come for the X, Stay for the Y Come for the Fanservice of the fantasy nukige brimming with beautiful women with massive knockers, stay for the once again surprisingly well developed plot and ever-expanding cast of entertaining characters.
  • Hijacked by Ganon Somewhat similar to the first game, Marquis Cuvier is considered the Big Bad of the story, except that he works through others to pull off his schemes. What makes him different, and possibly even MORE dangerous than Bernstein ever was, is the fact that even though everyone knew from the get-go that HE was the actual mastermind behind everything, he covers his tracks so thoroughly that nothing can actually be used against him directly to prove him as guilty until the very end of the final route when he tries to force Lute to sign a military pact using soldiers he had smuggled in on his own in order to exploit Edelland.
  • Pandering to the Base Gladys was one of the most popular characters in the last title, but had relatively little screentime and few h-scenes. In this sequel, she's arguably the most important heroine besides series poster girl Shamsiel.
  • Same Character New Actor Inverted, all characters returning from the first game are voiced by the same people, much to the appreciation of the fandom.
  • They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character Isis. Despite her huge role in the previous game, in this game, she gets the least time on screen and just one H scene for herself. Instead, most of the work that she WOULD have been expected to do (guard the king) is taken by Motaire. Similarly, while the last title worked hard to establish Roxanne as an extremely intelligent woman with strong political skills, upon marrying Lute she's mostly withdrawn completely from public life and instead concerns herself entirely with running the household and kitchens. Luceria ends up being treated practically the same as Roxanne with the two of them being shown together just about every time they're on screen.
  • They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot Every day that there ISN'T an anime adaptation of this series beyond the first 2 episodes. Seems more and more like a waste.
  • They Changed It, Now It Sucks The main characters all got upgrades to their character art, which includes new outfits. There are those who like their old ones over the new ones better and vice versa. There's also a split with people regarding the game's use of Ye Olde Butcherede Englishe. Some think it helps make the different nationalities stand out, while others have trouble understanding what the hell people are saying at times.
  • What Could Have Been As great as the first one was, it at least got a 2 episode anime adaptation. Although it didn't exactly finish covering the full storyline, it was at least something. Meanwhile, one has to wonder what it would be like if they ever went ahead and picked up making an anime adaptation again to finish the first game's events AND cover this one's.
