Our take on ChuChu
The bounce point arrives when the 72-hour survival cycle becomes central: players must accept repeated kissing as the story’s condition for staying alive. Those looking for combat or broader role-playing systems will also hit a wall at the choice-driven visual novel structure.
What is ChuChu?
ChuChu is a supernatural romantic comedy visual novel about an office worker who dies in a traffic accident and learns that a problem in the afterlife may be responsible.
An investigation will take about 20 days, during which she can remain among the living by attaching herself to a living person. Every 72 hours, she must kiss that person to obtain the energy needed to survive. The story branches through dialogue and choices as she approaches possible partners, including a former boyfriend, an unfamiliar young man, and a violinist she admires. The protagonist’s name can be changed. All romanceable male characters are adults.
