Other games with simultaneous dual English/Japanese?
I've never played a visual novel, but I've been very seriously learning Japanese lately, and feel I'm just about ready to start reading simple novels. The simultanous English/Japanese text in this game is perfect for me - I can read the Japanese, and if I don't understand it, I can look immediately above it and read the English.

Does anyone else know of any other games with this feature? Preferably non-18+, since games for younger readers will likely have easier Kanji. Also preferably with furigana-support (does this game have it?)

The Nekopara Series also lets you display both at the same time. If you look for it you should actually find quite a lot.
From my experience, if you can read Hiragana and Katakana you can identify them in the text. Obviously there are quite a lot of Kanji in it too. You can also match what is spoken with what is written if you can read a little.

Well I bought Nekopara and Go Go Nippon for Japanese practice.

Unfortunately Nekopara Vol 1 does not have the simultaneous English/Japanese text, only Vol 2 does. And apparently you need to play Vol 1 first to understand the storyline :(

Edit: Nevermind, Vol 1 does have it! It's hidden in a menubar at the top of the screen.
