It’s hard to describe my feelings regarding Select Oblige. The reading experience in English was rather janky due to poor-quality edits with many typos and incorrect pronouns/proper names; plotwise, the drama within each route was…bizarre ranging from completely redundant to utterly ridiculous. It’s understandable to call it a bad game like many reviews from the English readers community. Nonetheless, I fell in love with Select Oblige because of its characters. The protagonist was no pushover as he would risk everything to protect and fight for what he loved while the heroines were all unique and had their own distinctive development. The romance, in particular, was very well-written, you can strongly feel the sexual tension as well as the intimacy between the couple in the heroines’ route from the beginning till the end aside from the drama part. The heroines’ designs are cute and the H-scenes were so HOT, I hope other side characters like Five and the Twin will have their own routes in the future fandisc, otherwise, it would be a waste for such cute designs. Furthermore, I really like the theme of Select Oblige being Human Bonding. Despite the peculiar drama plotline, the joy of creating bonds between people was wonderfully presented in every route. Overall, if you’re an English reader, I would recommend you wait a bit longer for a potential proofread in the future, or at least until it gets a bigger sale, and THEN give this story a chance; it’s surprisingly charming in its own way.

As everyone pointed it out by now, the translation is on the weak side. It feels like 3 people made it, sometimes it feels like it was done by machine, sometimes it feels like it was done by someone who is not very good at English but tried their best and sometimes it is just nearly perfectly ok, done by the one person who was really up for the task when it comes to pure skill. It does not appear an editor was involved to QC either because there are too many typesetting errors which would have been likely caught. Behind all that, there is a genuinely good visual novel hiding. I just wish they let the translation bake for at least another 3-6 months. Who knows, maybe it will be improved upon over time. Length wise it is fairly long despite only having 4 routes. (took me 30+ hours) The story while also taking place in a school like a thousand other visual novels, tries to innovate the premise a bit which I think worked really well here. The waifus are great and apart from one route I really enjoyed most of them. There are some pretty interesting twists thrown in as well. Voice acting is superb and art is also great, the amount of different facial expressions are pretty insane actually, those are all hand drawn, there is no modern emote system present from what I observed. Intro song rocks and soundtrack overall is decent. A fairly big technical downside is resolution, it is only 720p but at least super resolution was implemented so I had no problem enjoying it on my 1440p screen. (just do not oversharpen it as it gets really obvious and things start to look a bit weird) Hoping Five and the Twins get a fandisc one day, there is quite a good amount of potential left. As always, get the free patch for the full experience. If you can get over the weak translation I recommend it.

整体算是部还算不错的废萌作 共通线中欢乐多多,剧情至少我个人体验下来基本无雷 推荐顺序为伊舞=空空瑠>灯莉>奏命,无论如何奏命线都建议最后推,有大量伏笔回收 个人喜欢排序的话伊舞=空空瑠=灯莉>奏命,我全都要.jpg

I just finished playing through the common route. So far, the games story has a very good narrative and the characters' characterization has been great. There have been some issues with the english translation that need some editing, but that's nothing that can't be fixed with a patch. Translations are still better than MTL. Great job!

Finished the Prologue / Before Opening Just a decent game so far. In my opinion, The Translation is actually quite decent although has it's own issue but not to the point of being unreadable. (Since it's being done by a primary Chinese publisher) Overall Okay-Priced for around 40h hours of read (VNDB), but I would recommend buying on a sale (Especially if you're concerning about the translation quality). As for 'Additional Contents' or 'Patches', I recommend check a VNDB page for this game. My only complain for the game is that Houjou Twin should have their own route. Thank you.
