But these three are not alone, in fact, every year dozens of visual novels are released both for PC & consoles; but, in the last few years, a new series appeared carrying a huge amount of love and happiness to all the fans of this genre both in Japan and abroad… its name is Grisaia. The first chapter of this long and successful series was Grisaia no Kajitsu; developed by the Japanese company Front Wing, it has been released in 2011 for PC, PSP, and two years later for PlayStation Vita.
