Ironically, I like Saimin, but I'm very specific about which type of characters are involved on it. My only complain with the genre is that penchant to ruin it with addition of scat. This is why I'm ambivalent with Fudegaki Soft. Their last game avoided using scat, which I'm grateful for.
However, there's a genre Japan has not exploited to its fullest potential: Femdom.
I usually don't like Netori games, and generally all games with main goal for protag to fuck girls with their consent or not. But i remember liking Saiminjutsu 2, i felt it was different from just hypnotize girl then use her in any way you want. I vaguely remember plot now, should probably replay it with fandisc at some point. But if i remember right, orange haired gal's (Rie) sex scenes were told from her PoV, like she loose consciousness while being hypnotized, then her body does all the things by itself without her will. Also there were another male opponent, and possibility to lose mother to him or something like that. Personally i think having a rival(s) in those game make it more interesting, at least for me. Also in one of routes protag realizes what a horrible things hes doing and just stops using itHypnosis is one of the genres I like the least, for me, knowing that the girl is faking her actions and is not conscious of what is happening takes away the enjoyment.
I'm more interested in hypno themed games where hypno is used against protag and not by him. Like in pure netorare game with netori guy who uses it against our protag and heroine. We can have holes in protag's PoV or some "fake" memories with some big reveals and plot twists. Not just some short route with some elements like in Ore no Kanojo ga Shuushoku Shita Kaisha wa, Black Kigyou Datta... and Kanojo ga Mimai ni Konai Wake but a whole game like that and told from protag's pov. Sadly i don't know if such games exist :(
Speaking of Black Rainbow and Fudegaki Soft. The only "recent" game by them that i liked was Saiminjutsu Re and mostly because of a Rival and "harder" scenes.
Wizard Links for me was very disappointing - art was so good, story was interesting in the beginning, but game itself is mostly too vanilla, especially compared to some of their previous games, and filled with too much incest, and I'm pretty much indifferent to it :(
I didn't play Saimin Gakuen - their latest series, but judging from CG gallery and description i think it lacks variety and ambition of previous Black Rainbow games like Saiminjutsu 2 or even aforementioned recent Wizard links. Play as a creepy dude - hypno-fuck students & female teachers - profit. No rivals, no interesting story elements, sex is pretty tame :(
Sorry if i insulted games\genres that you like, its just my opinions and i wanted to vent my frustration with those games :)
Speaking of femdom.
Herencia have some nice game of this genre ;). What i don't like is how femdom used - its either 100% of the game is femdom or its like 1-2% (just a few scenes). Why not make it like 20-30%? Dedicate one of ending to it or a whole route, or make heroine being femdom to protag after she has been "corrupted". Some of netorare games like Netorare nurse 3 would be much better if they included more scenes like that. Another way is to add some dominating females as side characters.
Edit. I remembered few games that fit my themes.
Netorare Osananajimi ~Saimin Nikubou Chuudoku~ netorare game with heroines being "stolen" with hypnosis. But i wish some elements like sex scenes, art and scenario were done better.
Okaa-san to Na-i-sho ~Bijin Oyako, Bessou Kankin 7 Nichikan~ - some good femdom not only by gorgeous looking Villainous Heroine but also by "corrupted" normal heroines in some routes. But again plot could be a bit better there too.
