idk why they changed the art up so drastically but they really did my mans kouya dirty. other than that its a decent continuation of the story and honestly a fun revisit to a classic. I'd love to see someone mod in the original artworks tho ngl.
I have a theory about Kouya: They don't like him. At least, that's it. The change on the protagonist for him to be a fox is also not good on my eyes.
That being said, the design of the game is something you get used to, I prefer the Torahiko of this version better than the original, but Kouya on the original is better designwise. The personality though is the same.
This is in the end, a fan free of charge project with artwork, music and all of that complete, so we cannot complain. Let's just be happy they are trying to finish the original game with their own version of it and trying to be original. The script of the story is also good, and there's no more horrible questionable rape endings too, which is good. And no one is way underage now, everyone above 17.
I can't say I'm too fond of some of the character design changes. For example I know Shin was originally supposed to be black, but I liked him a lot being purple. Another is Kouya.. I don't know how but he's gone from very attractive to unattractive.. It's great work otherwise, it's nice to see people working on this!
I understand your feelings towards the current Shin sprite but the more I played through the game, the more I actually came to really like the sprite. It might just be a case of getting used to it. But if the case isn't the same for you, then that's just as fair. Different tastes and all that.
As for Kouya, his sprite (along with Torahiko's) were drastically changed in order to fit their backstories. As an example, Torahiko with his original build and him being a swimmer doesn't make much sense. Swimmers usually have leaner body types. For Kouya, I don't quite remember but I think it was related to his lifestyle and eating habits that didn't line up to the build that he had in the original game. This is what I remember from a post that the developers have made in the past, anyways.
(Also I do think I should apologize, I didn't intend to create a wall of text lmao)
Do you mean his name being the same as Midoriya Izuku from My Hero Academia? In that case it definitely is a coincidence as Morenatsu is far older than MHA; goes way back to 2010.
Or did you mean his name matching his character well? Of course it does, Japanese writers love to pick kanji that apply to their characters (like how Western writers like to look up meanings of names to apply to their characters).
I think it's probably because Midoriya is a Japanese surname meaning "green valley". Both characters have green as a prominent color in their design. If you really wanted to read further into it, you could say that "valley" is appropriate for Izuku because it indicates depth, and his potential was far greater than what it appeared on the surface. Also, Midoriya is a fairly old surname in Japan, which makes it appropriate for Tatsuki, since his family runs a generational business. And now I feel like a weeb.
For anybody else reading this, Midoriya Tatsuki (翠屋 辰樹) is a different spelling of the Midoriya surname compared to Izuku's (緑谷 出久).
Tatsuki's name means: 翠(Midori- green), 屋 (ya- shop, house) 辰 (Tatsu- Chinese zodiac dragon) 樹 (ki- wood, tree). Clearly purposely picked to fit his character.
They are honoring the previous (original) Morenatsu creators with not making any profit either of the game. I suggested Patreon, but only their secondary team, which is working on Santa Lucia, is using it.
Question, do you guys want to follow the original script for the more... Sad/Creepy and sometimes Sick situations of bad endings of the Original or you pretend to change something?
I really love the content, some of it remembers me of the original events and some not which is good. I mean, at this point, if I want a OG morenatsu I can just play the original game that was ported to ren'py after all. xD
We're gonna be removing a lot of the questionable content that the original had. There will still be a few bad endings, but we won't be keeping in the worst endings that involved the more sickening elements.
That's good! I mean, if I want to see something sick I could just play some Corpse Party XD
I know a lot of Japanese games has some weird content, but in the end, a bad ending doesn't need to have traumatizing stuff especially on a cast of characters that are mostly 17's.
I asked Nova about that, since it completely escaped my attention. Considering he tends to draw nipples, he said it's likely he forgot. He will be working to adjust that at his earliest convenience.
Also, regarding Kyouji, I just hope you liked his content.

Hey, we are on our 73rd playthrough trying out all the routes and absolutely loving it! Some of the surprise um, 'omg Konusuke, where are your clothes' have had us in stitches. So much good fun!
Just letting you know that in the beach scenes, Shun has lost his bathers - well they kinda have shifted all the way off his legs lol - so just in case you hadnt noticed :P
That was a bug in build 6.1, and was fixed in 6.2.
If you haven't downloaded the newest version (which was uploaded about 20 hours ago from the time of this post), I recommend doing that, as not only is the bug fixed, it also includes Shun and Tatsuki's beach routes, as well as day 9.
OOOOOOO we just tried shuns beach day last night and realised it wasnt done! thanks for the heads up! me and my bud are absolutely loving playing through it together! Keep up the good work :)
I have been writing the guides as I go along, because there is always the potential to have changes made in the future. However, I can provide you with what you need so far to get a perfect ranking for them. Just hit me up on Discord. Frostclaw#0548 is my user name.
Shun's beach event is almost completed. I'm just working on the finishing touches, and I will be providing the team with a test build for QA. Once it passes/I receive feedback on what adjustments should be made, I can get ready to release it.
I appreciate your patience and support, and hope to get it out soon. :)
At the moment, I have small guides for each character for their events so far. Feel free to reach out to me on Discord (Frostclaw#0548) and I'll provide the optimal guide to you.
I have to say that I cried playing it, because the wave of nostalgia that I felt. And the way you did your own thing too. I have to thank everyone involved. Thank you everyone. <3
If I can help in any way, shape or form, just say the word and I'll be ready !
Loved it so far. I noticed there's an option to choose the language. So I was wondering if you guys plan to translate this game to spanish? I think it would be awesome if you do that and it could get atention from spanish-speaking countries.
Keep up the amazing work, and thanks for this~a mexican fan
The language option is there as a placeholder, and no translations will be available until the game is completed. However, once we do complete it, we will likely be seeking translators.
For the time being though, it's not something we're concerned about yet.
My only complaint about the game is why do they need hair its like saying they have fur for hair i'm questioning that. Everything else is really good love the characters and the background art
I wish Torahiko's route won't be that short like in the OG Morenatsu. They could more until they reach the end of the month. Though still this is a great game including the OG Morenatsu.
Somewhere in the comment chain (may have to scroll through for a hot minute) they confirmed that Ten will not be getting a route. It was just a fun thing that was added to Revisited only as far as I can tell.
As said above, the developers commented that there won't be a Ten's route, but they are going to implement elements of his route (since it was well received) in other routes of the main cast (it was not specified as to which character or characters)...
Thanks! At least he's going to have more screen time. I'm looking forward to that. I'm sure it could be either Shun (as he's her sibling) or Juu (as he's his senpai), but we'll see.
I played the OG Morenatsu a long time ago and decided to look it up again and was surprised to see this game, and I have to say that it is awesome! It is great how you guys are covering all the characters stories and filling in the spots the original game left behind. I would say one of the best differences is making the player character a anthro-fox as opposed to simply being a boring human in a world of beastmen. I am really looking forward to seeing more of Torahiko in his speedo and of his great story, left on a big cliffhanger on what he is holding back from telling Hiroyuki.

well said buddy.......well said, im with you......
Give the people some time its only been two months also one of them has been in and out of the hospital.
Bruh the game is not dead, it will probably take some time cuz they are working on Santa Lucia for the time being.
There is something off about that crow...I just don't know what...
The backgrounds being morphed from photos with some weird filter makes my eyes strain pretty badly.
I can't say I'm too fond of some of the character design changes. For example I know Shin was originally supposed to be black, but I liked him a lot being purple. Another is Kouya.. I don't know how but he's gone from very attractive to unattractive..

Is there nsfw pictures in the game btw? :D
In Tora's route the only nsfw(don't wanna spoil much) thing I saw is a otter.
Idk maybe there are more in other's route also.
There's also one in Kouya's, if I remember correctly.
Ahh, what a great visual novel. 2 months are completed, really happy the update will be soon here :)
Wow the credit soundtrack(Homecoming) is pretty awesome.
Just found this out. I've played the original before. Is Shin's route gonna be mostly the same with some changes or has it been rewritten completely?
Wait a minute i love this by the way its amazing- but I just noticed tatsukis name is Tatsuki midoriya- COINCIDENCE? I THINK NOT.
Really not sure what you're on about bro?
Do you mean his name being the same as Midoriya Izuku from My Hero Academia? In that case it definitely is a coincidence as Morenatsu is far older than MHA; goes way back to 2010.

amazing game and how can I download the new builds in a wat that my over progress will be saved?
I have a question will there be a rivalry between soutaro and Hiroyuki for kouji?
Gotta ask when the next update 😅😆
Heyy~~~ Good Idea to make this content anyway,
Can I suggest something?
Who don't want spoil, scroll down~.
Spoiler?
No need to quick do it, just want to know.
Time never escape me. :)
I know it's hard and long, he can be done after everything.
When time pass, many fan may ask so I remind you that`s it.
what is this VN thing?
Visual Novel maybe? uwu"'
no thay said something like being in testing
No, it simply stands for "Visual Novel"
It's DEMO Version
i cant wait to play it owo
I really love this game, I hope the complete game is ready quickly
Same nwn
will have sex in the game
Let's hope together man🤣
yeah thats what im want
are there any sex scene or naked scene pl
The VN still in demo version after all...so it may take some time to finished it.
very tr
Yo! Is well be there another route? Like Ten's route upcoming on the homecoming?
I'm wondering if this VN was finished?
No. We're almost 1/3 of the way through as far as story goes, but it will likely be a while before it's fully completed.
will the full game cost money or no just curious
It will still be free. We are not and will not be making any profit from this project.
They are honoring the previous (original) Morenatsu creators with not making any profit either of the game. I suggested Patreon, but only their secondary team, which is working on Santa Lucia, is using it.

Anyways, thanks! Loving the content so far. =)
I've got a question, why don't Juuichi and Kouya have nipples?, I mean the others have them, it just struck me as odd...
Also I wasn't aware Kyouji was crushing so hard on Hiroyuki, definitely didn't saw it coming...
I asked Nova about that, since it completely escaped my attention. Considering he tends to draw nipples, he said it's likely he forgot. He will be working to adjust that at his earliest convenience.
Also, regarding Kyouji, I just hope you liked his content.
So far, yes. Considering what happened in the original Morenatsu and Revisited in Juiichi's route the urge to throttle him is less urgent...
Heheh, we have a lot planned for Nanafuse, but I'm not divulging what it is.

Heheh, thank you so much for your support. :)
Hi, I can't wait to play new update ^^ I wanted to ask if is there any guide for perfect Tora, Juuichi and Kouya routes? Love your work guys <3

im unluck im was doing shun route and hes not have beach event (kk)

Hello Stormsinger/Frostclaw
Can you give the mega link for android? Can't download from here for some reason.
There's no MEGA link, however, you can download directly from our official website. http://stormsingerstudios.com/homecoming
I made sure to upload there as well, since itch can be a pain in the ass at times.
Hey Stormsinger/Frostclaw
I can swear i saw Haru nude in an earlier version
Was nudity patched out until you release the game or do i have to focus on Tora and do some specific choices?
Haru only shows up nude once (for now), when you first meet him on August 5th (provided you have NSFW activated).
If however, you're playing on Android, Demo 6.0 and onward enforced a SFW only status.
Yep, i play on android
Thanks for letting me know
I love the game so far can’t wait for the next update
Me too, I wonder when they will update the game. Check out their other game too called "Santa Lucia"
Loved it so far. I noticed there's an option to choose the language. So I was wondering if you guys plan to translate this game to spanish? I think it would be awesome if you do that and it could get atention from spanish-speaking countries.
Keep up the amazing work, and thanks for this~a mexican fan

I wish Torahiko's route won't be that short like in the OG Morenatsu. They could more until they reach the end of the month. Though still this is a great game including the OG Morenatsu.
Yeah, one of the reasons for the remake is to exactly give our beloved Tiger a route like the others had ^^
yeah, tora was one of the reasons, there were many others...
Will there be a route for Ten? I'm really hoping for his route, even if it's a branch from Juu's route like in Revisited.
Somewhere in the comment chain (may have to scroll through for a hot minute) they confirmed that Ten will not be getting a route. It was just a fun thing that was added to Revisited only as far as I can tell.
Thanks for the info! That's unfortunate, but I can understand.

Thanks! At least he's going to have more screen time. I'm looking forward to that. I'm sure it could be either Shun (as he's her sibling) or Juu (as he's his senpai), but we'll see.
Note: Ten isn't a girl and not Shun's sibling, but Shun's cousin or relative or something (dunno if it was ever specified)
I played the OG Morenatsu a long time ago and decided to look it up again and was surprised to see this game, and I have to say that it is awesome! It is great how you guys are covering all the characters stories and filling in the spots the original game left behind.

I've always wanted to try playing the OG Morenatsu but i never could find it do you have a link to it by chance?
