AIKAGI ~After Days~ is a visual novel. More specifically, it is a kinetic novel, without any branching routes. It takes place after the events of AIKAGI. AIKAGI ~After Days~ depicts a young couple enjoying their college life together. They go on casual dates, work part-time jobs, and their sweet life is filled with happiness as they cherish every single moment they spend together. Some scenes take place in the apartment they share, while other scenes take you to campus, to the mall, or even to the restaurants nearby. There are plenty of new situations that weren't in the previous game! This time the game's story is set in summer, and the shy childhood sweethearts' relationship has been growing bolder since the busy spring. In AIKAGI After Days, every aspect of Nozomu and Shiori's life is dyed in summer colors as they get out of their swimsuits and yukatas to enjoy their summer vacation together! If you enjoyed their blossoming love story in AIKAGI, you will love this summer full of dates, swimming, fireworks, travel... and maybe just some studying. Steam
This is a cute romance kinetic novel series with only one heroine. Being kinetic, you just read to the end and have a good time, without stressing over choices or branching paths. It’s recommended to read its prequel first.
The game’s setting is during summer vacation, taking place several months after the original’s winter setting.
