@Zero Kiryu07
They sound like they would be a similar thing dont they, but in actual fact they aren't even close to the same thing. A visual novel is a computer program that features a story (hence the 'novel' )which usually appears in a text box on the bottom of the screen.
Above that, there are sprites of the characters in that particular scene which change in pose and expression depending on what is occurring on the story. The game will also usually have audio tracks for their voices, as well as a large assortment of BGM to set the tone of each individual scene.
Most, though not all****'s are non-lnear stories, and branch out from the games 'common route' as the story goes along by presenting your with a series of choices. Depending on which choice you make, you follow different story paths until you arrive at an 'end', at which point you get some pretty CG images (often of an 18+ nature
) as a reward and start again (sometimes, having a specific ending finished changed the game the second time around).
Though not true of all games, they can also feature stats and mini game aspects which will alter the story in the same way as a decision depending on whether your win or lose, or wether you have specific parameters or items.
They are also known as Eroge, Bishoujo games and various other names, depending on the type of game and content in question.
Manga, im sure i dont need to explain.
@King Hero37: Asura Cryin is...weird. I was watching it back when it was released but i dropped it at about the 6th episode or so becasue the story was non-linear, didn't make any sense and it didn't look like they where going to be explaining exactly what was going on in a hurry.
@Tru Tears: Well, there are a lot of anime this season, so surely theres at least one worth watching, even if you dont watch them all. I mean, you cant honestly be planning to study 24/7 for the next 3 months are you?
Hell, i completed college with no trouble by cramming

I liked Pokemon up to the Johto region (the anime, I mean).
Maybe it's because that's what I watched growing up. Anyway, I decided not to watch One Piece because I can't find it subbed and I can't stand Luffy's voice in the English dub. So, I'm watching Sekirei: Pure Engagement (season 2, basically) which is also really short at only 13 episodes, and on the side, Case Closed or in some places, I think it's called Detective Conan.
I've tried watching Bleach on Adult Swim a couple times, but I couldn't get into it. It seems like something I'd have to watch from the beginning to really understand.

Yes, Mimi is dead. No, Shiro is not a clone (won't go any further since that would be spoiling
). He probably thought about Mimi at the time due to similarities with his friends or something.
The difference between a prison and jail is that jail is for incarcerating people for a short amount of time (about a year) or until their trial, while prison is for longer periods of time.
As for Asura Cryin', the story starts to explain everything on the second season.
