The first visual novel that I remember to play and enjoy plenty was Hakuouki for 3DS in english. (I'm very sure that this not was my first visual novel, but it's the first that I remember playing until the end and win the finals.) So, Tokimeki Memorial Girl's Side, but for the gameplay so active, I don't consider it a visual novel. They are otome games. Then, Amnesia Memories, Ijiwaru My Master, Hotokenser, and so many others that I can't remember.
I'm so excited because recently was released Hakuouki Edo Blossom for PC. I need to play it urgently!!!:76:
