What makes Yumefumi different
Editorial, not algorithmic
Discovery runs on human voices — curator highlights, hand-picked shelves, tagged directories. No AI-generated recommendations, no feed ranking algorithm, no engagement optimization.
Spoiler-aware
Reviews carry a three-tier spoiler system and progress-gated reveal. Readers choose when to see route-specific or ending-specific content. Respect for the journey is the default.
In service of VNDB
Catalog data comes from VNDB under ODbL. We commit 2% of gross revenue to preservation. Yumefumi is an editorial publication with tracking; VNDB is the catalog authority. Complementary, not competing.
Thoughtful reading
Reading sessions, velocity, route-journey visualization, twelve-week heatmaps. Tools for readers who want to see their own history without them becoming a performance surface.

New to visual novels or tracking?
Visual novels are long-form interactive fiction — books that branch, with characters, choices, art, and music. Some are short (four hours); some are epic (a hundred hours across a dozen routes). They reward the kind of attention novels ask for.
Tracking what you’ve read gives you a personal catalog and a record of your own taste developing over time. Writing reviews helps you hear what you actually thought. Following curators helps you find the next one worth your time without the algorithm picking for you.
