About the game

A classic visual novel about a demon-slaying ninja. Yukikaze is an up-and-coming young Taimanin with a suite of deadly lightning powers, but when she embarks on a mission to rescue her missing mother, she just might have bitten off more than she can chew...

What players say

I still rmb fapping to this everyday 10 years ago. The reason why it took so long to be on steam coz this game is heavily against the (modern aka WOKE) ethics and rules. (LGTV HD+ people with mental illness dislike this review lmao)

This is significantly better than Taimanin Asagi. The art is much better, it has a lot more content, a lot more animated scenes, bonus scenes, almost exclusively human scenes and lets you make the text box less visible this time. Yukikaze is the star of the show but Rinko is along for the ride. Flat chested and tanned a first for the series. This is a NTR fest so if you don't like that stay far away. These two girls...

Probably the only Taimanin entry I enjoyed so far, Personally I think Asagi was too extreme with too many monsters stuff meanwhile Yukikaze was more just NTR plotline (Which I'm more fine with), Will be there for Yukikaze 2!
