Скачать или смотреть A Triumphant Return for the Series? | Memories Off Sousou Not Always True (Review)

This is a video review of Memories Off Sousou Not Always True (メモリーズオフ 双想 ～Not always true～), a visual novel developed by Mages and released in 2025. This is the latest entry in the long-running visual novel saga that began all the way back in 1999, with this installment marking the series' 25th anniversary. The Memof games are VNs that excel at depicting romance while also including its fair share of mystery. I personally became a fan of the series after discovering it through the Historia Collection, and having played every single mainline title since, I was quite looking forward to this new release. But did it manage to recapture the soul of the series?

In addition, this video includes a section where I discuss on whether it's necessary to play the previous titles beforehand, and how much this entry relies on your knowledge of earlier events.
