Sažetak:Japanese Adult Computer Games feature a plethora of setting and themes, ranging from science fiction and fantasy to romantic comedies set in present-day Japan. A subset of these video games features historical or pseudo-historical backdrops for their narratives. An illustrative instance of this approach is the bakumatsu period in Japan, characterized by its unique societal mores and representational affordances.

This brief contribution explores how these industry practices take precedence over strict adherence to historical accuracy, and what this means for approaches based in Japanese studies.
