Spoiler:
Tsukihime (2000)
is a visual novel about Shiki Tohno, a second year high school student of Misaki Town, who suffered a life-threatening injury when he was young. When he regained consciousness, Shiki was able to see "death lines", lines by which things will eventually break when they die. This includes the death of inanimate objects as well as living beings and undead beings. The story has him fighting various beings, including vampires and mages. It is lightly pornographic in nature, but the English language patch includes an option to disable the hentai. The game can be purchased online, or downloaded I suppose if you're into that, and the English Patch can be found on Mirror Moon's website. The game features routes for 5 females.Kagetsu Tohya (2001)
is a one-year sequel visual novel to Tsukihime. You'll want to have played the main game first. This too has a fan translation into English. Melty Blood (2004)
