Koboreochiru Shoujotachi ~Papakatsu JC Kairaku Ochi no Kiroku~ (零れ落ちる少女たち ～パパ活JC快楽堕ちの記録～) Review

Honestly, my life before high school was nothing like the cushy existence kids have now. I had zero pocket money.

Not “very little” — literally none. Picture my elementary and middle school years.

My parents weren’t completely against giving me money, but occasionally handing me one or five yuan was already the biggest concession. Going out to buy a shaobing or a youtiao egg pancake counted as a fancy purchase. I had no money of my own to buy what I wanted.

I used to envy friends who had their own wallets and allowances, who could just buy stuff. Me? Anything I wanted had to go through parental approval. Sure, I only wanted things like Mini 4WD cars, but obviously my parents weren’t going to buy them on a whim. Back then a pirated “Auldey” car cost 10 yuan, and I only had 1-2 yuan in coins. Out of reach.

“Man, if only I had ten yuan.”

That was my wish. Simple, direct, pure.

Then things changed.

I remember it was middle school when we got a computer at home. I wanted to go to a local flea market and buy pirated discs. (You know, around 2000 we couldn’t afford legit copies, and there was no channel to buy them anyway.) I actually wanted games, but since my parents wouldn’t give me pocket money, my dad always took me to buy discs — I’d pick, he’d pay…

So it was awkward. I’d always grab those compilation discs like “Cangjingge” that had Office, Windows 98 SE, and a bunch of games bundled in. And I’d tell my dad I was buying it for “Win98 SE”…

Eventually some games got too inconvenient to buy… I dug out my old coin piggy bank from childhood, found a bunch of coins, scraped together 10 yuan, and bought two games: 3DO’s Gulf War and NovaLogic’s Delta Force.

Naturally, my dad saw me playing… asked where the games came from. I said a classmate lent them, but he figured out I’d used my spare change.

He didn’t say anything. Just went to his room, came back with 20 yuan, put it on the table, and left.

“If you want to buy something, just say so. Don’t waste it.”

After that, my dad gave me a weekly allowance, around 10-20 yuan. That was a fortune to me back then. I could buy other stuff too — magazines like Popular Software and Computer Enthusiast… My miserable “no pocket money” childhood came to an end.

Actually, I left out a key detail. When I decided to raid the piggy bank, I’d once seen 10 yuan on my parents’ table.

They usually didn’t pay much attention to loose cash. If it went missing, my dad would just assume my mom took it. I struggled with it for a long time — should I secretly take it? It was only 10 yuan, they might not even notice. But even so, that act has a name: theft. Even if it’s from your own parents.

I’m glad I didn’t do it. If I had, maybe I wouldn’t have been able to stop.

I’m even more glad my dad didn’t keep strict controls on my allowance but gradually loosened up. Otherwise, extreme poverty might have pushed me into crime.

They say poverty stunts ambition. When you’re poor enough and desperate for something, it’s easy to go down the wrong path. I’m a guy, and my only option was stealing. But what if I were a girl? What then?

A game I played recently might have the answer.

The game is called 零れ落ちる少女たち ～パパ活JC快楽堕ちの記録～. Even if you don’t know Japanese, the kanji make it pretty clear. A literal translation would be “Fallen Girls: The Record of a Middle School Girl’s Joyful Corruption through ‘Papa-katsu’.”

What’s “papa-katsu”? I’m not sure how to say it in Chinese either. Basically, wealthy middle-aged men find schoolgirls, treat them to meals, have them chat, give them money — but make them call them “Daddy.” Kind of like the “sanpei” (escort) culture in mainland China, except the escorts are students.

In Taiwan it’s easier to understand — it’s a form of “enjo kousai” (compensated dating) in Japan. Some people think enjo kousai is all about hooking up or prostitution, but that’s not true. Some lonely old men just want someone to chat with or go shopping with, and they won’t force anything sexual.

Besides, the words “papa-katsu” and “enjo kousai” don’t inherently imply sex. It’s just that if sex is involved, the price goes up.

Anyway, what’s this game about?

It’s about two middle school girls, Reia and Suzuka. Both have busy parents and are often home alone. Reia feels lonely at school and wants to get along with classmates, but soon realizes they all hang out and party after school. These two girls want to join in, but…

They have no money.

Yeah, no pocket money. Going out with friends costs money. You can’t mooch off others forever. If you don’t chip in, people drift away.

The other girl, Suzuka, isn’t that interested in hanging out with classmates. She likes reading novels at home, especially “fantasy light novels” (ugh, of all things, that toilet paper). But she has no money to buy them. (A single volume costs like 400 yen and she can’t afford it — that’s just sad.)

The two poor girls get together and complain about being broke, parents not giving them allowances…

Then Suzuka makes a suggestion:

“I know a friend who does this papa-katsu thing. She says you just go eat and chat with old men and get paid. All you have to do is chat with them and call them Daddy.”

Reia gets excited immediately:

“As long as they pay me, I’ll call them grandpa if I have to!”

So these two genuine JC (middle school girls) change their info on Line, saying they’re students looking for papa-katsu.

Kind of like registering a WeChat account and saying you’re a pretty girl looking for a date, I guess.

They didn’t take it seriously at first — just posted for fun. But that night, someone contacted them…

The girls were surprised: “We’re this popular?” They decided to meet this “Daddy” just to see.

The “Daddy” was indeed a middle-aged man, but quite the gentleman. He just treated them to a meal, walked around shopping, and complained about how miserable his life was — balding, no sex life, probably a programmer. At the end, he gave each girl 5000 yen as a thank-you and left…

The girls were shocked. 5000 yen that easy? Do nothing but eat and shop with someone, get free food, and get paid? That’s amazing!

So they got happier and happier, meeting all sorts of “Daddies.” The routine was always “eat,” “shop,” “chat,” “dismiss,” “pay” — assembly line work. After three months of this, their wallets were as stuffed as the Chinese people’s, and they didn’t even have to pay health insurance or taxes. Life couldn’t be better.

Then one day, a new “Daddy” showed up. After dinner, he suggested “let’s go somewhere else, I’ll treat you to dessert,” and lured the two naive girls to a hotel…

Once at a hotel… well, no escaping it. The bastard had his way with them. It was their first time, and they didn’t even scream in pain — I’m speechless.

Afterward, the guy looked satisfied and gave them triple the money. (Holy shit, 15000 yen to deflower two lolis?) The girls saw the extra cash and figured, eh, whatever… didn’t call the police.

The next day, the guy came back, wanting more sex because they were “so good.” This time the price was triple yesterday’s. (15000 x 3?)

The girls couldn’t resist the money and went again. You can guess the rest — the guy kept seeing them, they got “developed” and started thinking “sex feels great.” Eventually they tried all sorts of things and started taking “papa-katsu with sex” jobs, getting deeper and deeper…

And then they realized this whole thing was unexpectedly great… They got money, satisfied their own libidos, had meals paid for, and more importantly, helped relieve the sexual frustration of balding middle-aged men… Four birds with one stone. Why not?

By the end of the game, the girls weren’t in it for the money anymore — they had plenty. They just went out purely for pleasure, completely fallen into becoming high-class middle school prostitutes, and proud of it…

Uh… okay, to each their own, but this ending caught me off guard. Usually I play dark stuff, but this one felt a bit like a Happy Ending?

Overall, this game is the first nukige attempt from the moe brand Amuse Craft. It’s neither good nor bad, but lacks any real highlights. The artist is decent, but the voice acting is subpar. A girl as wild as Reia should’ve been voiced by Ishihara Mai! Look at what we got — flat reading.

Also, too few CGs. Each scene has one CG and the moaning goes on forever. Sure, the two lolis’ chests are bigger than my wife’s, but there’s not much fap material. The dumbest part is the story. It starts with a slow corruption, but then the psychological shift is way too fast, and they just accept it. The theme can’t be elevated.

Honestly, it’d be easy to make this a masterpiece: hire a main artist like Shirako Mochizuki Sakura or Pero and it’d take off. Instead they used a nobody. The coloring and style feel vaguely familiar, like Koikari -My True Feelings for You-, but only vaguely…

Actually, Amuse Craft making nukige is unexpected to me. I always thought their sales were fine, but apparently not. More and more galgame companies are closing, and Amuse Craft has to resort to selling cheap nukige to make a buck. Just shows the economy is down, consumption is downgrading, everyone’s struggling.

In this world, only money is your daddy. Without it, no one survives.

No wonder the Warcraft 3 cheat code is “Whos your daddy.”
