VN - Others - Completed - My Girlfriend Is a Blue-Collar Worker [Final] [Elf]

Can't believe that this game has such high reviews.
Walls of text with bare minimum of even slightly decent art.
Another absolutely "flying in the clouds" spineless MC.
Story that makes absolutely zero sence for even a little bit sane person.
Don't waste your time, lads

Really good VN, but be prepared to invest a lot of time in reading and diving into the story and plot as that is where the game shines.
Art and the scenes are unique and really well made. There is a lot of replay-ability if you make wrong choices, so be ready for that.

unlike many others here who actually did finish the game, i only played for like 3-5 hours and just consists of me skipping through like 80% of the dialogue and just reading the summaries on the forums.

this game is PLOT HEAVY, definitely not your run of the mill NTR or even any game for that matter.

not heavy fan of NTR but i played this cause the girl looked cute and i love me some UB action. even then i'd still rate this VN a 5/5 for daring to go to such lengths in a NTR game. i'd say even skipping the dialogues and going for FIN 2 is worth it for any NTR fan. that route the best scene ive ever seen in a hentai game
with that said, i don't want to play this again.

1 of my favorite VN's even though im not a huge fan of them this 1 had me immersed. I highly recommend it. The wife is very lovable and its has pretty good animations as well. I love a story with twists and turns and this 1 has a major 1.

Great story! Well done! I love it! I wish we could have had even more content to answer all the various questions that arose as I played this, as well as some key events that I would have loved to see to clarify some points and satisfy my own curiosity. Unlike most NTR stories, the protagonists wife consistently loves the protagonist and never willingly breaks up with him despite being violated, manipulated, tortured, and humiliated both physically, mentally, psychologically, and emotionally by other men for years, that doesn't change. So she does have exceptional loyalty compared to other heroines in this genre.

Amazing game. One of the best ntr. But unfortunately I didn't like the protagonist at all. But I guess that's exactly why this is such a good ntr. This game has definitely exceeded my expectations though. Also this is a slow burner and needs to replay multiple times to get the next scenes. Which was kinda weird to me ngl but probably because I am not really familiar with these kinds of games?

I was somewhat torn about my final rating for this game, there were at times where I was considering giving this game five stars, and at times I dabbled on the thought of giving it three stars, so I finally came to the conclusion to meet it in the middle and finalize my opinion of this game as four star worthy.

For the newcomers that are hovering over the review section dabbling over whether this NTR game is worth the time, let me first and formost advise you that this game is an extremely slow burn. It takes time to setup the characters and the story in this one which is a positive for those of you that like build-up and obviously a negative for the ones looking for a quick fap, I found this element good but it eventually led to some issues which I will explain further as to why I couldn't give this game 5 stars.

I'll start with the positives first. (Some spoilers below)

Pros -

+ The H scenes themselves are beautifully crafted and are visually very appealing and erotic to look at. The artwork in general in this game is sublime but the H scenes stand out in particular as for why this game is quite well received.

+ The MC's character has a great balance as far as his personality goes, which is quite nice to see because most NTR games struggle to give their MC's any backbone and instead make them complete spineless pushovers. The MC is kindspirited and is extremely emotionally attached to his female partner, so much so that you really get a sense of his frustration and heartbreak when things start going south.

+ The routes that are avaliable through the choice system in this game are quite interesting. It should be noted that while there are some rather unfortunate and sad endings in this game, there are routes which also allow the MC to come out on top and stand up for himself. A plus for those that like to have the element of control in the visual novel.

+ The corruption of the female protagonist is nicely written (up to an extent which I will touch upon a bit later in this review) and I like the general context of how the plan to blackmail her was thought out. I also do like that her descent into corruption did not lead to her completely shredding her personality completely like some other NTR games tend to do. She is still a thoughtful and caring person and while she struggles to maintain that demeanour as the corruption gets worse, she does not completely abandon those characteristics.

+ Voice acting of the female characters is nicely done and appealing to listen to. You really get the sense of emotions in some of the lines they deliver, even if you don't necessarily understand Japanese.

Now for the negatives, and personally I actually need to emphasize that these are actually quite annoying negatives and it almost made me consider taking off a star for this game but for the sake of the efforts put into the pros I decided against it.

Cons -

- The corruption of the female protagonist takes a turn for the worse because while it got off to a good start it started bordering on the verge of ridiculousness with some of the demands the main antagonist was making on her. Normally, I wouldn't have found an issue with this because NTR games require a certain suspension of disbelief in most cases. But this game wants to come off as relatable, realistic and contextualized so I will criticize it for falling short of the mark.

I mean really, the female protagonist really falls for the "my blackmailing friend is threatening to expose you unless you suck my cock" gimmick? That was the point of the corruption path where I started to roll my eyes at the fact that she still thought the main antagonist was genuinely on her side and not in on this whole scandal. There's being naive and then there's falling for tricks that would only be possible if you're severely mentally handicapped. This is not the same female protagonist we had gotten to know at the first part of the story. And the trend of these tropes and convenient plot points seems to continue from that point on, with every H scene that follows emerging out of a situation that sounds straight out of a poorly written adult movie.

- While the artwork is great, this game has definitely sacrificed a lot of quantity for quality. I really would enjoy seeing some more scenery or at the least see the faces of a few more background characters that play minor parts in the story. At times it really feels like you have to drag yourself through mountains of text and there's not much incentive to do so because visually there's nothing much to look at.

- The main antagonist's two henchmen/friends feel like they were written into the story for pure plot convenience once the corruption part starts. And the worst part is that they offer no unique personalities either, they just sound like clone copies of the main antagonist and their motivations for being involved in the corruption of the female protagonist are poorly written and seems very much like a classic porn trope. It's a bit of a nitpick but again I'm pointing this out because you are made to go through so much worldbuilding and good writing at the start of the story only for it to get somewhat tainted by these two characters.

- The constant back and forth timeskipping and occassional protagonist pov swaps is honestly very annoying after a while and it really just gets confusing to even remember where we just get thrown into all of a sudden. It is a good tool if you use it sparingly to showcase a different characters POV, and I did like what it did when we got to see the main antagonists POV when his true intentions were revealed, but imo this writing approach was spammed way too much for my taste.


tldr; Overall, it is definitely one of the better NTR games out there and the story is immersive and the H scenes are hot. However, it falls short of a 5 star game for me because midway throughout the game the writing starts getting inconsistent and it feels like there is a lot of plot convenience driving the corruption forward. A must try for those who enjoy slow burners in the NTR genre but prepare for some disappointment if you expect this to be the best NTR game out there as other reviewers have said. IMO, it falls short.

It was a nice experience. It's not the best I've ever played, but... It's been a while since I felt that thrill in my chest before an NTR game and it was great

Considering that I more or less skipped the "lots of text" because I'm not a big fan of that... Although I did get the idea of certain important details (I mean, it wasn't THAT lots of text), and that they do it that way to make us empathize with the characters and all.... And I managed to do that. Personally I'm not a fan of the drawing style, but thanks to empathizing with the characters and understing the story.... I was able to enjoy the H-scenes and the situations that were going on

I really hope to find some other similar NTR game.... In the sense of the blackmail and psychological manipulation that a certain character does to the FMC to make him do certain things.... That's what I liked the most. Highly recommended if you like NTR games (it's a pretty straightforward type of NTR... I mean, infidelity without the MC knowing and so on)

Don't mind the basic title and cover, this game is a masterpiece. It has all flavors of NTR you can think of.

It's a long ride with many routes but don't worry, the replay menu is the best I've seen. Every self-respecting porn game should have an animation mode like that.

I don't recommend it if you're weak minded because pretty much all routes will hit your feels. But if you're ok with that, go in blind and stop reading other reviews or guides. Once you reach an ending the game will show you what choices you picked to end up there, so you can go back and pick something else without getting spoiled by anyone.

TL;DR One of the better NTR VNs in the history of mankind, marked by its fluid H animations and really good writing (compared to all other NTR media in recent years)

Visuals (5/5)
+The characters and background art are nicely drawn
+Simple animations in sprites while reading (e.g blinking)
+Lots of H scenes; about 30 animated ones (though one of them is really just the sprite jumping to show her titty physics) and a couple of static CGs
+Really good animation even when compared to its contemporaries in the current year; animation is so fluid and well-done that you could see the ripples in the flesh
~Art might be considered "dated" for some
~Didn't really get confused by the main menu UI but I could see how some might be confused by it

Audio (5/5)
+The two main heroines are fully-voiced and their performance is good
+BGM is well composed; developers really know which one to use to set the mood
+Copulation SFX is always a nice thing to have and it does its job decently

Writing (4/5)
+The writing is overall good; the dialogue sounds natural and majority of the cast is interesting enough (e.g your subordinate is actually one of the most fun characters in the VN due to his...unique circumstances and motivation)
+Good build-up to the actual cuckolding; about half of the entire game is dedicated to building up the relationship between the MC and main heroine (definitely not just a nukige if you came in here just for the H scenes)
+The characters are fleshed out well enough that you give a damn about them
+Lots of different endings (though some of them are just a variation of the many others)
+Overall, it's just plain "fun" to read
+"It's NTR! We're gonna have a good time you NTR loving cuties!" (me by the way)
~At the end of the day, no matter how fleshed out the characters are, some of them still felt like they were plot devices written in not because they inhabit the world, but because they need to be there to move the plot
~"It's NTR, and it's not avoidable but eh I don't mind" (some other guy, probably)"
-"Fucking hate NTR and I still do not get the appeal of it. Is the NTR avoidable in this game?" (Protip: it's not; it even says in the cover that his wife is stolen by that bastard ;_; *sobbing noises)
-Well it's NTR so by default there WILL be some illogical bullshittery and chicanery so some suspension of disbelief is required if you really have to make sense of an NTR story

Gameplay (4/5)
+Good length (about 20-30hrs of reading); pacing is also done well enough that you won't think that the writers have stayed for too long in one particular part
+Gallery is chock-full of goodies: static CG viewer, scene recollection (not limited to H scenes), animated H scenes player, BGM player, sprite viewer (limited to the two heroines), and endings player (also shows which choices you took to lead to that ending so in theory you could do without a walkthrough)
~Flags are unified across saves and are retroactive. This isn't a pro/con per se but it's something unique enough that I need to mention it. It goes like this:

• You make a SAVE-1 with two choices, A and B
• You choose A
• Later on, you make SAVE-2 with two choices, C and D
• You choose C and it leads to END-1
• You reload SAVE-2 and choose D, and it leads to END-2
• You load SAVE-1 and choose B
• The flag for choice B is now raised for all your save files
• Just load in SAVE-2 and it will be as if you choose choice B and not A so choosing either C or D might now yield different results

~Due to the former, there are some "tricky" events to see since a choice (or flag that you raised) in the future will change a dialogue in the past:

• You make a SAVE-1 with two choices, A and B
• You chose A
• Game goes on as usual
• Myriads of events later, you chose choice G between the two choices G and H
• You decided to reload SAVE-1 just for the whimsy of it and chose choice A
• Wow choice A now led me to a different ending instead of continuing the story all because I chose choice G in the future!

-Loading a save and checking the backlog doesn't show the previous dialogue that came before that point so you'd need to do a mental note of your saves
-Minor bug in which you would need to do some workarounds to write notes into your save file
-Settings are pretty limited and the resolution isn't the greatest

Would I recommend it?
If you're into NTR, insta-rec'd to you my guy. For many years, this has been one of the most top-rated non-tl'ed VNs and I could see why this has been one of the chart-toppers for a long time. This stands out greatly in the stagnating cesspool of NTR media and reading this is truly a breath of fresh air.
If you're indifferent to NTR, I'd still recommend it to you since the writing in it isn't just your typical NTR fap-bait and there is some (for lack of better word or because I'm just not the greatest in writing) artistic merit to it.
If you hate NTR, then you'd better pass on this one. No matter what, the MC gets painfully cucked and the amount of endings that can be considered "good" can be counted on one hand. Even the "true" endings left me pretty bittersweet.

This is the best NTR game I've ever played

But firstly, this won't be for everyone. The writing is indulgent and there's too much like always in any Japanese VN, you better be able to read fast or skip a lot of useless inner monologue.

However. This is the best NTR I've experienced. There is a base story told about a loser-ish man (you) getting with a hot tomboy-ish girl, and a cast of bad men that surround you that can and will get her to cheat.

The game spends over half of the time telling a mildly interesting story about you and the girl getting together, but all the while with subtle elements that seem off here and there.. these elements are used in incredible call backs down the road to make the betrayal even more visceral. Used to pervert everything that ever happened in the building block phase of the game. The genius of some of these callbacks is the first great thing about this game.

I think the key that holds this game together is plausibility. Look, this game does have some outlandish NTR scenarios play out, BUT ONLY if you let it. This game features a number of endings (using the guide is mandatory), and if you choose certain choices in the wake of early game NTR you can swing the outcome in your favor. And this game basically has 90% of people in the world be horrible people, but how you and the main girl respond in light of these people remains.. convincing, through the use of some clever plotting and writing. Enough to keep immersion for sure.

The last positive thing I have to say about this amazing game.. it has heart. It's a given that this is about NTR so it's about cheating. What the game examines is the best and the worst things that can arise from that, how it can make people evolve and adapt.. And yes it's a massive exaggeration to reality in most cases, but there are bits and pieces that will touch you.. and bits and pieces rooted in the reality of the situation, always.

If there's one thing I dislike about this genre and this game.. it's that blackmail is used heavily in this game to establish the NTR premise. I would much rather that games try to explore 'shades of grey' in people's ethics rather than pit characters against impossible choices such as blackmail. However.. once the game gets going in its earnest in the back half, I was able to stop focusing on that, and simply focus on how the game was perverting all the premises it established in the front half.. and that's the game's strength.

This is… kind of a giant waste of time. Not worth the 20 hours.

What they did is they took an average romance story and made it meet the world of NTR (failing awkwardly, in my opinion).
Positive about the romance is the protagonist's intense inner monolog through repetition or exaggeration which displays his self-pity creating opportunities for both partners to connect. This and the plot around that area is written well enough. Negative is that the exact same intensity makes you believe everything serves the purpose of erotism, since in-between that, a mysterious, hefty erotic element is thrown in out of the blue.
In reality, relevant things take place when you expect it within MC's naive POV and the female is never actually corrupted (ending "FIN 2").

Every now and then, you sense there're people behind this game who understand some aspects of writing, the craft, yet it falls into pieces when it comes to most of the actual sex scenes or transitions. Characters turn into plot points and seem more and more like a joke, the mystery is too much because it doesn't fit the original character, the inner monolog is at times annoying or completely unnecessary like the recalling of the entire first part of the game after the big reveal. You can't tell me the team who constructed the romance was the same who tried the NTR.

On the other hand, there are one or two sex scene ideas out of the few that are quite intense regardless of context, and some simple animations. What would have made everything better is more visuals, of course, especially the image of the antagonist when he's going at it with his overboard, sadistic remarks: Otherwise, it sometimes just feels like a stupid developer typing it. It would have been such an easy fix.

In a nutshell, what this game needed was people who are completely fucked in the brain: 100 hours of romance into "Hah! It wasn't like that all along!" should have been the model. The way it is now, it's set for players who aren't experienced in NTR and don't mind going with weird story strings into only few interesting or intense ideas.

Top notch storyline. I am new to this kind of game and i thought the story end happily when the mc wife is pregnant and talk about their future. It makes me wonder if i download incomplete game as there wasn't any ntr. After a quick research i realized there's lot of ending and holy shit, I've never read any h manga that have this kind of story.

The music and writing are top-notch, but the game tells a terrible story. The bastard destroyed a loving relationship through a mean and nasty way. There's a lot of mental self-narrative in the game. This game is not for the vulnerable. In terms of the characterization, the author clearly harbors malicious intent, all in the interest of crazy sex scenes and bad endings. And the author does not give a reasonable explanation for the motives of the characters' behavior. After the first chapter, the characters become tools to promote the development of the plot and lose their personality and soul. I would say that applying realistic logic to the motivations of characters in games can be particularly painful and confusing. In short, it is a memorable and frightening VN for adults.

One of the best hard netorare games on the site. It reminds me of Hangover Cat's A Promise Best Left Unkept/Edge Of. The type the hits you right in the center. It's a long slow burn, plenty of time to see how the MC and heroine meets, grows together, have kids.. I admit when you play the side of the rival it kinda takes away from the hard hitting feeling, although those scenes are when it actually gets good.

The animations are great! The voice acting is superb. The writing is *chef kiss*. The music is good and fitting with the scenes playing out. Also I must add something about the animations, some of the creampie's totally surprised me with how its animated, never seen something like that in a game yet it beautifully adds to the scene.

Thanks for translating this masterpiece!

Without a doubt the best NTR VN I have come across. Thanks to Saikey for translating this masterpiece. While yes, this game is a little dated visually (still a 7.5/10) compared to more modern titles the story could not be written any better. 10/10 game overall

This is the contender for the Best NTR game on this site :-

- An actual love story properly developed between our main couple.
- Multiple route leading to multiple bad ending and 2 final ending.
- Decent artsyle with animated H-scene.
- NTR that really hit hard emotionally

If you are an NTR fan, this is a MUST try. Just remember that it take a while to build up to the NTR part, but that make it great

My Rating of is:

Pros:
+ Nice Graphics
+ Active Play
+ Hot Scenes
+ Long Game Play
+ Different Game Play
+ lots of Paths

Cons:
- censorship

Conclusion:
Nice Game, its different than the rest, sometimes I had problems finding the paths, but I found them without outside help.

My Advisory:
Damn worth the Download

An absolutely amazing game and not for 0 reasons. Elf once again showed why it's the master visual novel maker company. Just look up the scores on VNDB. This game has an absolutely legendary status. The NTR bible.

Here's some reasons why it's great:
+ a slow-burn (the best) type of NTR story and a decently long VN
+ a cast of characters both male and female
+ narratively impressive! It uses unlockable chapters to focus the narrative and combines all three most popular types of NTR storytelling making it probably the only game which has netori, netorase and netorare in the plot
+ it's a helluva perverse game, some of the scenes you see here you will not see in other games
+ it is one of the rare games which uses the blackmail trope well. This is amazing because blackmail is absolutely abhorred as a plot device

I can only say thanks to the translator for bringing us this gem. Nobody can say that a NTR story cannot be elaborately written. I've yet to read it thoroughly but I've checked it enough to see the quality. My favorite scene and probably the hottest one because it's so unique is the shaved head cunnilingus. I recommend it more to story enjoyers because it is a story game more so than a fetish game. If you're looking for something simple and dumb to get your rocks off this isn't a game for you.

damn this game is the vn equivalent of thug hero party.
i feel emotionally drained af.
good shit.
The Art, just like most ntr is top tier.
Heroine is great too.
Not recommended for newbies to ntr.
This is hard ntr. You will feel dirty after finishing it.
unless you're a real Real degenerate. in which case, enjoy.
