Plot

The story is set around the middle of 19th century. The protagonist is Guise (often misspelled as "Guys"), a young boy around 14 years old, being a bit of a street rascal like nearly all the young boys from poor families. One day, Guise gets caught for a mere candy theft. While he waits for the official to scold him and send him home, things suddenly get an unexpected twist. Guise finds himself accused not of stealing candies, but of murder - the murder of a man he didn't even know at all. In a very Kafkian scene, everyone seems convinced that he actually commit that murder, and no one really bothers to find further proofs or even to make the boy understand what is going on. So, as if in an absurd nightmare, Guise is locked up in the worse prison one could imagine; his normal everyday life destroyed without logical explanation. From that point on, 95% of Enzai's place setting is inside the dark, claustrophobic, dirty prison. In there, Guise experiences humiliation and tortures of various kinds; sometimes actually reaching peaks of bad taste quite unusual to be seen in a Japanese game for girls. The inmates of the prison are a bunch of quite unreassuring people, most of the characters Guise will meet there are mentally twisted in one way or another, and those who aren't psychos aren't fully trustworthy in any case. However, the people living around the prison who aren't jailed aren't any better. From sadistic, cruelly insane jailers to drunken and apathic lawyers, it seems that just all of Enzai's characters are either unreliable or plain dangerous, making it quite difficult for Guise to decide whom he might trust or find help from (if ever). The player, leading Guise's actions, must find a way to discover what has really happened, and must also try to keep the hero's body and mind as less damaged as possible. Alternative meaning: Nineteenth Century (periodical) (18th century — 19th century — 20th century — more centuries) As a means of recording the passage of time, the 19th century was that century which lasted from 1801-1900 in the sense of the Gregorian calendar. ...

Legacy

Enzai has become overly popular also outside Japan, mostly due to its unusually dark and twisted atmosphere and to such surprisingly bad-taste scenes as have been already mentioned. No BL game had gone to such bounds, so Enzai was the first girls-oriented videogame that showed not cute love scenes or charmingly perfect characters but blood, rape, insanity, and abuse - not in the romantic "shoujo way" but as rude as such scenes actually are. Also to be noted as a quality in that game are the psychological details of the characters and of the situations. In the first half of the game, the player is led to have the feeling of despair and hopelessness; the feeling of not knowing what is going on even if everyone else seems to, but knowing only that the events cannot be helped. The authors manage to convey such feeling by the constant repetition of similar scenes and phrases, nearly to the point of getting redundant. Another thing to be mentioned is the accuracy in portraying the different kinds of mental illnesses that the various characters suffer from. The various disorders afflicting Enzai's cast are efficiently represented in their real symptoms (mostly paraphilia such as pedophilia, S/M, bondage, voyeurism, urolagnia, but also non-sexual psychologial diseases, such as schizophrenia, madness derived from long periods of cell isolation, and apathy). Enzai is full of German imageries. The title itself is written in German ("eine falsche Beschuldigung"), and so are all the titles of the background musics, even if theorically they should have been in French.
