About

Under the Moon: Tsukiiro Ehon is a visual novel that follows Ashe before the events of the main game. As the demon kingdom’s sheltered princess, she navigates mundane royal duties like dance lessons and courtly obligations while confined to the castle walls.

The story blends slice-of-life moments with gentle character interactions, offering a quieter, character-focused experience compared to its predecessor. The game stands out for its charming art style and lighthearted tone, which contrasts with the darker themes of the main series. With minimal combat or complex branching narratives, it prioritizes dialogue and relationships, making it a relaxed pick for visual novel fans. While its 2007 release date means it’s showing its age technically, the endearing cast and cozy setting still resonate with players seeking a low-stakes story.
