About Nukitashi
The visual novel's publisher Shiravune describes it as:
“NUKITASHI, which first launched Qruppo’s explosive popularity in the visual novel scene, follows the story of the anti-copulation resistance fighters of No Love No Sex in their fight to bring down the draconian Pervert Law and its sex-crazed proponents on Seiran Island. Equal parts eccentric, humorous, and action packed, NUKITASHI remains beloved and highly acclaimed among Japanese fans, and took home the prize for Best Scenario—as well as Best New Brand—in 2018’s annual Moe Game Awards.”
Launched in 2018 as an adult title, Nukitashi was later made available internationally via Johren and Steam (18+). The sequel, Nukitashi 2, released in 2019, is also available on Steam as of February 16.
A manga adaptation by Mameojitan began on Beaglee’s Manga Ōkoku in 2020, and later continued in Shueisha’s Ultra Jump starting in 2021.
