Release: A Kyudo BL ― Story
Release is a choice-based BL (boys love) visual novel set in a college kyudo club, with three love interests and multiple endings. Japanese archery, club politics, and three men who each need saving in their own way.
Synopsis
Your dream is finally real. You've been accepted onto the Imagawa College kyudo team, where you'll train alongside the archer you've looked up to since you were a kid.
But the club's prestigious reputation is covering something. Secrets sit under the surface, and they're capable of tearing the team apart, along with the relationships you're only starting to build.
Falling in love was never part of the plan. It might also be the only thing that saves the club.
Characters
Ito — the prodigy
A once-in-a-generation talent in kyudo, and someone who has been buckling under the pressure that came with it. He's fallen out of love with the sport and is searching, desperately, for a reason to keep drawing the bow.
When everything around him starts to come apart, who's going to be there to pick up the pieces?
Goichi — the easygoing senpai
Friendly and well-liked, Goichi is the one who helps you find your footing on your first day. Underneath the easy manner, though, he's straining under the weight of his new role as club captain. He stays cheerful, stays approachable, and keeps every one of his own problems bottled up.
Until they don't stay bottled.
Yamaguchi — the determined marksman
Bold and proud, and set on seeing the kyudo club destroyed. He was a member once. Whatever happened since has curdled into something bitter enough that he now leads the campaign against the institution himself.
Can he ever make peace with the club, or will he carry that grudge for good?
