What is Wind -a breath of heart-?
Wind -a breath of heart- (referred to as Wind from now on) is a visual novel by minori. It is their second feature-length visual novel, released on April 19th, 2002. The game’s main claim to fame was that its two short cinematic sequences were created by Makoto Shinkai, director of the critically acclaimed Voices of a Distant Star and The Place Promised in Our Early Days. The game itself was successful enough to spawn multiple vocal compilations, a three-part anime OVA (lit: original video animation AKA miniseries), and a sixteen-episode television anime series. Wind was also ported to the Sega Dreamcast and the Sony PlayStation2. This site provides an unofficial English localization for the PC version of Wind. For those of you who are new to the genre, the bishoujo (be-show-joe, lit: beautiful girl) game is a Japanese phenomenon. Each year, there are more bishoujo games released in Japan than the number of games released for all of the major English gaming consoles combined. Visual no
