STORY
At the start of the game, Misato has sex with Kaji. This infuriates Asuka who can smell Misato’s perfume all over him. Desperate to prove she’s an adult, Asuka fucks the first guy who’ll agree: Shinji Ikari!
The only problem is that Shinji is already dating Rei Ayanami! When Rei walks in on them having sex, she realizes that Shinji is a cheating scumbag and storms out! The rest of the game explores this love triangle between the three Eva pilots!
There are eight chapters in total. Each chapter tells a different mini-story in the Evangelion universe. In one story, Asuka seduces Hikari into lesbian sex-play. In another, she fucks Toji against Hikari’s wishes. That’s right, the class president Hikari gets cucked! The game ends after the main trio are separated. Asuka must return to Germany, Rei must return to Lake Hamana while Shinji is left alone. They have a threesome together before departing.
Although the English translation is an official release from DLSite, it is incomprehensible. The game frequently spoils upcoming sex acts so nothing feels spontaneous. At least the novelty of watching Asuka act like a whore is super fun to watch.
GAMEPLAY
Asuka Training Plan is a visual novel created in its own special engine. You click the screen to advance the story. The gameplay may be difficult to understand until you read the manual, which is a Readme-file in the game folder. Outside of game functions, it also includes character summaries and an image gallery. The game is basically a kinetic novel since there are no story routes and the choices have no real consequences. There is only one ending available.
GRAPHICS
Art in the game has no consistency. Sometimes faces are rounded while other times they are pointed. Sometimes characters are short and stout, other times they’re tall and long. If not for hair color and dialogue, it would be impossible to differentiate anyone.
The artwork in this game is distinct from the titles in the “Evangelion Training Plan” series. In particular, Hikari is given a more consistent design than in “Misato Training Plan”. The constant visual changes between games makes it difficult to enjoy playing if youโve already used to playing other titles in the series.
Little things like coloring are done horribly. Sometimes Asuka is pale, other times she has a realistic skin tone. Penises are sometimes tanned or have a reddish hue. Whether itโs her dance outfit or Eva plug-suit, Asuka usually appears in each outfit only once throughout the story. This is disappointing. If you think her skin-tight red uniform is the sexiest, you’ll be sorely disappointed to find it in one scene only. More disappointing is that Ayanami Rei has three scenes even though this isn’t her game.
VOICE ACTING AND SOUND EFFECTS (SFX)
Asuka Training Plan has full voice acting for all characters. Misato’s voice is incredibly sexy in this title. Rei still talks like a doll while Asuka sounds like a high-maintenance girl. The voice acting has clearly improved since “Ayanami Training Plan” and is believable enough to make up for the mediocre visuals.
Sound effects are rarely used outside of sex. When they are, itโs mostly a wet sex sound similar to a wet slipper being slammed against a wall. Itโs pretty unrealistic but the virgins in the audience will not know the difference.
MUSIC
The soundtrack in this game is identical to its predecessor. Since these are two very different games and the music wasn’t very good in the previous title, itโs practically a trainwreck here. Itโs better than silence, but it feels more like a placeholder than a valid soundtrack.
HENTAI
Asuka Training Plan has 15 artworks spread across 8 chapters. Rei and Misato have some scenes but the main focus is on Asuka. She slowly turns into a whore as she fucks Shinji and Toji. Eventually she lets herself get fucked by every guy in their class. Seeing her become a free-use slut is nice, but the lack of proper dialogue keeps this from being a believable scenario. The game feels largely like a wasted opportunity. Asuka never gets to fuck Kaji even though this is the entire premise for the game.
Despite there being 15 CGs, direct sex is rarely depicted. Dialogue indicates a penis is inserted, but the lack of variation in CG artwork makes the game a disappointing experience. Evangelion fans who want see hardcore porn will have to settle for an ecchi light novel.
CONCLUDING WORDS
Asuka Training Plan is a one-of-a-kind experience in the hentai market. As an Evangelion porn game, there are plenty of fan fiction scenarios, but the lack of meaningful choices makes this more of a movie than a serious game. For a quick fap itโs a good time.
