Tsukihime: A Piece of Blue Glass Moon Review - A Captivating Remake for Visual Novel Fans

In an age where Type-Moon's presence is often attributed to Fate/Grand Order above all else, releases like Tsukihime A piece of blue glass moon communicate that the company still shines abundantly beyond those free-to-play confines. Aside from being a stellar remake that introduces new natural elements appealing to both longtime fans and newcomers, the core identity of Tsukihime is still intact, instilling a rebirthed sense of nostalgia.
This standout visual novel experience excels at emotive character writing, tense battle scenes, and gripping lore that coalesce, displaying Type-Moon at its best. Even though the two routes aren't equal lengths, they accomplish their intended jobs splendidly while setting up an even more ambitious sequel I can't wait for.

I am SO GLAD we now live in a timeline where Type-Moon's visual novels are getting high quality official releases outside of Japan! I still can't believe it. Thanks for reviewing this gem, Noisy Pixel.

[@andypayne6358]

I was introduced to Witch Holy Night off the strength of NP's review. This, i've already preordered. Keep doing your thing NP xx

[@brian728]

I am proud of you Noisy Pixel.

[@insertchannelnamehere7154]

My only complaint with the remake is that not enough was done in arcs route to naturally integrate the new characters. Due to them just replacing her with Mario and Noel for a few scenes and avoiding her to try and see how many Satsuki scenes there were the only times I saw her were the Train scene, the scene at the battle field, and the two after returning to the school. While it was due to my choices it felt like they wanted to have these emotional scenes with Ciel that just left no impact. Otherwise everything felt like an improvement on the original. The Ciel route was such a massive improvement on the original that it makes up for any issues with Arcuieds route though. Can’t wait for the far side to come out.

[@TheLastDaysOfSorrow]

really don't need to be sold on the VN. Just here to show my appreciation~

[@bilditup1]

Would be interesting to see a comparison of the Tsukihimates translation and this one

[@Turbo_Waitress]

Picked up the deluxe edition yesterday and was quite happy with it. I played a little of it so far and it does feel like they took great care with the release.

[@baziworld]

i am just so much surprised a Review over Tsukihime: A Piece of Blue Glass Moon in less than full day of its official release , that is even more impressive if anything, Very Touching and Impressive Review, Truly a must play visual novel for any type moon fan, (9.5! Truly a right Score , i hope other also enjoy as much)

[@Crylhound]

I support this request!

[@DieselJT]

Me too!

[@a_vivi]

Please please please

[@TheMinchio]

The games are pretty good, a must-play if you are into the original manga/anime. And I’m impressed how they have not reviewed those games here, but in general, they have not been promoted much in the west also, it’s a shame.

[@DieselJT]

@@TheMinchio I wish we got a ohysucal release for them here.

[@TalkingAboutGames]

Bring to PC nao!

[@Flaris]

I have no regrets on getting this. Well somewhat a shame the only physical version I could see was super expensive. But I guess that's how it goes when all that's out there is effectively the collector's edition! Still I didn't want to miss out like with Mahoyo. Besides I do love Type Moon stuff. Totally worth it so far. The story is good (from what I've played), the visuals are really strong (remake showing its stuff here) and it's just engaging. Only downside is that when I eventually get through this that I'll be desperate for the remake of the rest of the routes!

[@GamingNightsNeoMasaki]

I’ve been waiting for the sequel ever since the jp release, now en version is here surely they’ll give us the sequel soon….right?

[@gundambassexe31]

It's finally here . Tsukihime Remake English release tomorrow by aniplex USA and type moon!

[@Deus.Grande]

It's darn Neko Arc! Lez go!

[@writersharp]

Fantastic to see a classic VN brought over into English, even if it’s not in its original form. Do you have any intention/plan to review the recent Kara no Shoujo II retranslation and release (The Shell Part II)? You covered the first part last year, and the third part, which has never been translated should release sometime next year. I just hate to see a kamige like this get overlooked.

[@HanSDevX]

I'm actually reading kara no shoujo 2 right now, it's really good.

[@S_Hyde]

[@hasseo195]

Question: Has the game some fanservice stuff, similary to the fate games? i only heared, that sony was cencoring 2 pictures in the art book for the game, who is uncencored by the switch version. And was wondering, if that stuff is in the game itself.

[@winster32]

Yes. Very so. If you want to stay safe: Don’t buy any games from Sony or ports to Sony systems.

[@hasseo195]

@@winster32 Have looked into the switch Version, but: Why the f has it 23 GB, while pokemon and many others are only around 6-9 gb? That is half of my sd card^^

[@ViApp0]

@@hasseo195 As far as I can tell it's a combination of having a TON of assets and maybe suboptimal compression. All sprites and CGs have variants (like a normal character and a blurry one to represent distance or Shiki's worsening vision) and the variants are treated as separate images, not the base pictures with effects applied to them, so all the HD pics take a lot of space. At least it's not in the hundreds like in the AAA industry.

It's only getting a digital release in Europe. It's already available on PSN UK. I pre-ordered the US PS4 special edition from Amazon, though it won't be delivered to me in the UK until July 5th...

[@MrInuhanyou123]

Seeing western official reviewers review nasuverse works is still so surreal. Great job however. Although as an arcueid Stan I feel attacked. I hope one day arcueid gets what she deserves

[@ostrichesandgin8570]

Do I need to play Witch on the Holy Night first or can I just jump right in?

[@EpicPoggersSigmaMale47]

Two separate stories

[@ncp9095]

You can jump right in. Enjoy.

[@Bargadiel]

Either one will give you different insight of the other. I think its fine to jump right in since that may make witch on the holy night more interesting for you later

[@MobikSaysStuff]

Review Amanatsu perfect edition

[@kcold3277]

As an OG Tsukihime reader, I don’t agree that Arcueid's route is lesser than Ciel's. At a higher level, while it does indeed serve as a foundation for future routes, the strengths of what it uses from future routes make it a standout, especially fron a structural and thematic standpoint (OG Far Side ontext adds multiple layers to the Remake).

[@Outlow2400]

Yeah same, I will never understand complaints about the routes being different length and stuff It is painfully obvious that they wanted to stick to that OG Tsukihime experience while modernizing it a bit. Arcueid route is probably one of the most legendary route of all time. It didn't need anymore than what it already was. Plus the ending setup the future for the Tsukihime 2 we'll see in 2047 Ciel route on the other hand definitly needed heavy modifications so they could go all out with it

[@MrInuhanyou123]

For someone who was waiting for a long time for remake, I was hoping every route would be like ciels. Drastically expanded and made better. It's nice to say it was already good but that won't stop the far side routes from definitely being different in their own ways with all this set up. All I can say is I hope there is more for arcueid down the line than a retread with better art than the original. If that's all there was one might as well stick with the manga

[@Dimeric]

Still would rather play and read the original full story. This is only 2 of the 5 stories, it's too expensive for a VN that's not even complete.

[@Zhuk-zc8es]

Love this game, and the original too

[@DeadApostleAncestor10]

Blud might have a rather indifferent taste

[@daytwentytwo]

Give it a try. Tsukihime is more action-focused.

[@Kurto.]

I didn't love Witch on the Holy Night, it's probably my least favorite nasuverse visual novel. Tsukihime:remake is without a doubt my favorite. I would highly recommend giving it a chance.

[@Crylhound]

I bought a Switch again because of this game. I do NOT want to give Sony any money for their censorship on this game ('s Artbook)!

Remember when FFXVI did not meet sales expectations from the exec? Most likely because it was console exclusives... I really, really hate that i'm gatekept from playing the games that I want to play. Detective Raincode, 13 sentinels, tsukihime and many others... Guess i'll wait for it to come to PC.

[@MrInuhanyou123]

Has nothing to do with console exclusivity and everything to do with PS5 having half the sales so far as PS4. Ff7 remake had good sales according to SE even as sony exclusive

[@drowningin]

You bought a pc which means no physical media, constantly having to port beg, and what you do get is just consolized games… Maybe don’t be a pc gamer? The platform died 20 years ago when physical died and steam took over

@@HanSDevX nope. I’m a Nintendo guy only now. No physical, no sale. DRM, no sale. Cope is port begging because no one makes games for your dead platform, and when they do it’s full price with no physical media and loaded with DRM.

Ok so its less a sony and nintendo problem than you may think. An oft unnoticed yet surprisingly well documented issue with modern japan is for a first world country in the digital age computer literacy rates over there are rock bottom. If you are planning a game for a japan only release putting effort into deving a pc ports actually a shockingly bad financial idea. This was probably started as a mandate from aniplex contrary to nasus statements as more people have consoles in japan than have any form of home computer.

The most interesting thing about this English release is that, in the decade wait to get this, you could have learned Japanese and played the original release years ago. It's always wild reading complaints about translation inconsistencies and censorship from Western fans of Japanese games. There is an obvious solution to the problem that none of them have decided to do because they *think* that it would be too hard, despite them having ample time to chip away at the challenge.
