My name is Mint Monster Readings, or simply Minty_Readings here and... Well, I'd like to discuss this idea I've had for a while now.
Like many of you here, I am a rather creative person. I love writing and telling stories, drawing, making simple animations, and programming in general. But one thing that I love the most is playing interesting, compelling, and cute visual novels. As a big fan and contributor in the shadows of the visual novel community, I always thought it would be nice to create a YouTube channel that acts as a visual audio-book for visual novels that do not provide with full voice acting or those that have a Japanese cast instead of English. As a voice actress myself, I thought it would be a good opportunity for me to practice and enhance my skills. There are a handful of people to whom I am acquainted with that have told me that they would play more visual novels, however, they simply don't have the time to sit down and enjoy it; preferring to listen to Let's Players or audio-books as they work and/or exercise.
For free visual novels, I would play it in its entirety. For commercial visual novels, if they have multiple endings/love routes, I'll only play one good ending (and/or one love interest) completely so that viewers can be encouraged to buy and play the game themselves. I know that there are a lot of people here who are working or have worked very hard to make a visual novel but not many people even play them due to lack of interest and/or advertisement. It makes me very sad to just think that all that hard work is not even acknowledged. I'd like to be a helpful service to all of you creators and qualify as a good channel to advertise and read visual novels to help advertising your projects!

I would be lying if I said that I wasn't a little hesitant to do this... Would it be a good idea? Is there anything that I should keep in mind when I end up playing the visual novels? Any suggestions to make it entertaining/enjoyable?
If there is a visual novel that you (or a team that you support) have recently or have finished a visual novel that you would love to hear narrated, please feel free to leave a suggestion down below or send me a private message...! :'D
