Welcome to 9-nine-
I just wandered in, what is this?
This is the home thread for the visual novel “9-nine-”. See the visual novel book club home thread if you need an explanation of visual novels themselves, but 9-nine is a murder mystery story with supernatural elements. You can learn more about the VN here on VNDB (links to Episode 1).
Episode 1 was read as part of the Visual Novel Book Club. The rest of the episodes are currently planned to be read as offshoot clubs on a separate schedule.
Where to buy
Steam, PC → Episode 1 | Episode 2 | Episode 3 | Episode 4.
Switch (only available as a bundle of all 4 episodes)
PS4 (only available as a bundle of all 4 episodes)
DLSite (also PC but, if you prefer, the larger all-in-one version)
Discussion Rules
Please spoiler tag / collapse all spoilers, and keep refrain from discussing happenings beyond the current week’s thread (a new thread for each week will be posted every Friday). Don’t be shy to ask any questions at all about the language, freely give your thoughts on the content of the writing so far, etc. Just remember usual forum and etiquette and it’s all good. And please do chime in, the more the merrier and all that
And if you drop off the schedule, that’s no problem either. Often someone is still watching these threads, so (as is true with all clubs here) feel free to ask or comment even after the end date!
