Our take on Bokuten - Why I Became an Angel
The focus on subjective relationship choices gives the story emotional ambiguity, but it limits direct control over outcomes: decisions must be weighed without a clearly correct answer, and consequences extend into the protagonist’s own romantic life.
What is Bokuten - Why I Became an Angel?
Bokuten is a dramatic visual novel about a cynic assigned to carry out an angel’s work after accidentally knocking the angel from the sky.
Each relationship presents a choice: restore the couple’s bond or allow it to end, with consequences for everyone involved. The stories include classmates, an internet-based romance, and a couple divided between love and personal ambition, alongside three additional pairings. The protagonist also develops relationships with each heroine. Choices shape the course of the protagonist’s own romantic story, while the game presents happiness as a subjective judgment rather than a clearly defined outcome. The soundtrack includes 9 vocal songs composed by OVERDRIVE.
