Gameplay

An example of what gameplay looks like in Imouto Paradise! Here, Sōichirō is conversing with Rio, Aya, Michika, Koharu and Hiyori.

Imouto Paradise! is an erotic visual novel that takes incest as one of its major themes. In Imouto Paradise!, the player assumes the role of Sōichirō Nanase, who is the main protagonist of the first visual novel, and the older brother of the five date-able heroines presented in the game.[6] In Imouto Paradise! 2, the player assumes the role of Sōichirō's future son, Keiichi Nanase, who is also an older brother of five younger sisters. Much of the gameplay is spent reading text that appears on the bottom of the screen, which represents the story's narrative and dialogue. Text is accompanied by character sprites, whom of which Sōichirō or Keiichi can converse with, over background art. Throughout the game, the player will encounter CG artwork, which replaces the background art and character sprites. Imouto Paradise! offers a branching plot line with multiple endings, and depending on the decisions that the player makes during the game, the plot will progress in a specific direction. There are five plot lines for each heroine that the player will have the chance to experience, and in order to experience all five plot lines, the player will have to replay the game multiple times and experiment with different choices.

The player will also encounter various background music (BGM) throughout the game, different BGMs will play depending on the atmosphere or tone of the scene. All characters are voiced in the game, with the exception of the protagonist, Sōichirō and Sōichirō's father.

Throughout gameplay, the player is given multiple options to choose from, and text progression pauses at these points until a choice is made. Some decisions can lead the game to end prematurely and offer an alternative ending to the plot. To view all plot lines in their entirety, the player will have to replay the game multiple times and choose different choices to further the plot to an alternate direction. Along with choices, the player will also have to select a heroine from the map select screen, which can also affect the ending the player attains. Throughout gameplay, there are scenes depicting the protagonist and a given heroine having sex.

Plot and characters

School has recently just let out for summer vacation, and due to business trips, the main character's parents are overseas. As an older brother, Sōichirō Nanase (七瀬 総一郎) is to spend the summer vacation alone with only his five younger sisters for company, the first being the motherly Aya Nanase (七瀬 綾 Nanase Aya, voiced by: Toa Yukimura). Aya is a cheerful, always smiling, gentle little sister. She enjoys cooking, doing the laundry, cleaning, and other household chores. With both parents away, she looks after everyone. She’s always loved her older brother as another guy, and thinking about how she’d want to be lovers with him, it appears that she’s interested in sex. ”But I’m his blood-related little sister!” as she takes a step back while worrying about that every day.[7][8] The second sister is tsundere Rio Nanase (七瀬 理央 Nanase Rio, voiced by: Yui Ogura), she is the stern little sister who watches after the studies of the others. Completely unaccustomed to anything related to sex, she’s a late bloomer in that subject matter. Whenever her female siblings start to talk about anything lewd, she gets completely red in the face. Whenever her older brother is in front of her somehow or another she’s always angry at him. Though that is the attitude she takes, she actually really likes her older brother. She tries her best to show those feelings of love towards him, but before anyone knows it, she hits him with an elbow. A typical tsundere who can’t be honest with herself.[7][9]

Thirdly, there is mild-mannered Hiyori Nanase (七瀬 日和 Nanase Hiyori, voiced by: Yoshimi Yoshida), Koharu’s younger twin sister. Among her siblings she’s the most timid. Quick to get flustered. She’s always worried about something. Even when there’s nothing there she trips and falls. When she was younger, anytime there was a problem her older brother helped her so she is rather pampered. She relies on her older brother so much that she believes that what he says is completely true to the point that when he tells total lies she totally believes him. Hiyori has no experience in sex, but is rather curious about it.[7][10] Another sister includes spunky Koharu Nanase (七瀬 小春 Nanase Koharu, voiced by: Saori Yukito), Hiyori’s older twin sister. Among her siblings she’s the most energetic. With few worries, when something crosses her mind, she’s a girl that blurts it out without any hesitation. She’s open-minded about sex and is a type that is frank and okay with dirty jokes and indecent topics. When her parents are away, she boldly tempts her older brother with sexual advances. It’s an established fact that she always outmaneuvers the others. Multi-skilled, she participates in both the tennis and swimming clubs. Due to that, she always eats a lot, but unfortunately none of those nutrients go into her chest.[7][11] The last sister is the quiet, mysterious Michika Nanase (七瀬 みちか Nanase Michika, voiced by: Shiho Nakaya), a little sister who shows very little emotion. Her expression generally doesn’t change. She appears to love books as she’s always seen walking around with one. Her room is filled with books. She’s a bookworm whose thoughts can’t be read. But if there’s anything sexual going on, she goes after the protagonist relentlessly. This is her way of expressing affection. Believing in the absurd information she read in a book that said, ”In order to become lovers with the person you love, it’s best to train your target,” her aim is to make her older brother her own. She has learnt several sexual techniques from what she has read in books.[7][12] It just so happens that Sōichirō is constantly having perverted thoughts, and on top of that, his sisters are acting oddly assertive.[13]

Episode list

# Title Original release date
01 "Onii-chan, Fuck Me First"
"Oni-chan, Watashi to Shiyō yo" (お兄ちゃん、わたしとしようよっ) 		December 9, 2011

Sōichirō is woken up by Aya, after having a very erotic dream of her and Rio. Hiyori asks him what masturbation is, which leads to an awkward conversation at the breakfast table. Sōichirō accidentally catches Aya masturbating in her room, whilst she is fantasizing about having sex with him. Soon after, Aya realizes that Sōichirō saw everything. Later, Koharu walks in to Sōichirō's room when he is watching porn, that leads to them both having sex. Aya admits to Sōichirō, that even though she's his sister, she thought about him while masturbating, and apologizes before confessing her love, which leads to the two having sex. Whilst the two are laying down together, Sōichirō says that he loves her, and that they are all his precious sisters, which makes Aya question the word sisters in her head.

When Hiyori wets herself, she asks Sōichirō if he is going to punish her. He first says no, but then considers this and tries it. Koharu later asks him if he wants to play with her again, and he denies this, saying "the devil made me do it". Aya overhears this, and wonders if he did it with Hiyori and Koharu too, before coming to terms with the fact that he loves all the sisters. Later that day, Rio agrees to let Sōichirō see her breasts, and they end up having sexual intercourse, Rio reluctant at first. The episode ends revealing that Aya was outside the door. 
02 "Onii-chan, Let's Do it More!"
"Oni-chan, Motto Shiyō yo!" (お兄ちゃん、もっとしようよっ！) 		April 20, 2012

Sōichirō has yet another erotic dream, with Hiyori and Koharu in it this time. He is once again woken by Aya, however, this time, she has noticed that he has had an erection and wants to please him, by having sex. But before long, Sōichirō has had enough and thanks her. Aya pretends to her sisters that nothing has happened, but she has realized that since they had sexual intercourse for the first time, Sōichirō started to change a little bit, and notes that even if she asks for it, he is never in the mood. She feels like she is being avoided, and doesn't know what to do. Michika notices Aya's strange behavior. After asking to see it, Sōichirō shows Rio what a porn site looks like. She confides to him that she doesn't know much about sex, and wants to know more about it. This leads to Sōichirō and Rio having sexual intercourse.

Sōichirō wakes up to find Michika who has tied him to the bed, and she tells him that what he desires is also her desire. They have sex, but Sōichirō avoids coming inside of her, and says that it was really close, to her confusion. He tells her why, and she answers back, "What a shame." Presumably the next day, Sōichirō asks Aya where the others are, and she tells him that Michika is at the library, Koharu is at her club, and that Hiyori and Rio said that they were going to a friend's house. Aya and Sōichirō are alone together. When asked if she was going anywhere, Aya tells him that they are rarely alone together these days, which he agrees to. She tells him that she has a favor to ask of him, which is to take a video of her masturbating. It is shown that it is embarrassing for her, but she wants to turn Sōichirō on. One thing leads to another, and they have sex. Afterwards, it is revealed that the sisters left the house so that they could be alone. They all come up with the conclusion that he won't come inside any of them because he is concerned about Aya. Rio tells them that they suit each other, so they should cheer for them both. In the end, all of the sisters end up fighting over him.

Reception

Imouto Paradise! and Imouto Paradise! 2 has had good sales overall. In the month and year of its release, Imouto Paradise! came No. 6 on the monthly sale ranking of January 2011, on Gethu.com, a major redistributor of visual novel and domestic anime products.[31] In the following month of February, the game came No. 12,[32] and in March, it ranked No. 19.[33] On Getchu.com, Imouto Paradise! was voted as the 3rd most recommended visual novel game to play, as of January 2011.[34] Astarcube reviewed the game and gave it a score of 79 out of 100.[35] Merchandise for Imouto Paradise! and the game's sequel Imouto Paradise! 2 has also been presented to Japanese market, before and after the games initial releases. Merchandise for Imouto Paradise! and Imouto Paradise! 2 include dakimakura covers,[36] pillow covers, pin-ups, telephone cards with illustrations on them, and several sexual toys.[37]

The anime of Imouto Paradise! was reviewed by Timeenforceranubis of SLC, a hentai review site. It was a generally positive review, saying, "The girls’ voices are spot-on, each having her own manner of speaking (“Tsundere,” “Playful/Seductive,” “Loving,” etc.), but all of them eventually ending up at “desperate and horny,” which they all pull off masterfully." The critic also praises the character designs, facial expressions, and visual styles. However, they criticized, "The visual style isn’t without it’s problems, however. Very specifically, Hiyori’s eyes are very large, which could be an issue for some people. In addition, the erratic “camera,” while providing a sense of intensity to the sex scenes, doesn’t have nearly the same effect outside of them. Rather, it makes the characters hard to focus on." They concluding the review positively, saying, "If you like incest hentai, Imouto Paradise is an absolute must-see, full stop. Those just generally into high-intensity ero-anime, as well as Teruaki Murakami fans, should check it out as well."[38]

Cultural impact

Imouto Paradise! and its sequel Imouto Paradise! 2 are often compared to anime/manga such as Night Shift Nurses, the Bible Black series, Mai-Chan's Daily Life, and other works that are considered 'gross' or 'immoral', this is due to Imouto Paradise!'s depictions of incest. This could also be due to the fact that the Imouto Paradise! 2 manga was designated as an "unhealthy publication" by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government for "glorification of incestuous acts".[39] The title was included on SLC's 'A Beginner’s Guide to Eff’d-Up Hentai', which also includes Night Shift Nurses, Bible Black, and Mai Chan's Daily Life.[40]

Imouto Paradise! has made appearances in other media. In the Houkago☆Eroge Bu! ~Eroge Seisaku no Tame Onnanoko to Ecchi Shimakuri na Mainichi~ visual novel, there is a poster on the wall in one of the rooms, depicting Aya from Imouto Paradise!. There are posters depicting characters from other Moonstone games, including Icha Pri! ~Ojousama to Icha Love Ecchi na Mainichi~, and Princess Evangile. In the background of one of the classrooms, there is a collection of Imouto Paradise! figurines and nendoroids designed to look like the sisters.
