A Visual Novel for Educating Culture: Sensitive Topics

Abstract

Sex is a topic that is sensitive for Thai citizens in general. Visual novels (VNLs) are similar to adventure games (ADGs) but with dominative use of static anime-style images, narration, and a few interactions. Manga and anime are popular media forms for teenagers in Asia. Thus, we aim to introducing sensitive topics, such as sex education, in a media form that is common among Thai teenagers.
