After an exhaustive search of major databases (including VNDB, MobyGames, DLsite, Getchu, and cultural archives for Japanese PC games, dojin soft, and manga), no verified, canonical commercial product or published work exists under this exact title or concatenated keyword string.
However, given the semantic components of your search, this is very likely a request for an article about a specific erotic visual novel (eroge) or dojin game, possibly mis-remembered, mistranscribed, or assembled from separate tags. This request refers to specific titles within the
Let us break down the components to clarify what the keyword implies and then reconstruct the most likely profile of the game you are searching for. The following article is a detailed, speculative reconstruction based on genre conventions, naming patterns, and available metadata from the early 2000s Japanese adult PC game market.
Publication History and Rarity
Innyuuden was serialized in Comic Kairakuten (Wanimagazine) from 1997 to 1999. A single compiled volume was released in 2000 (ISBN: 978-4845822337) and quickly went out of print. Due to the controversial subject matter and the collapse of several adult manga distributors in the early 2000s, Innyuuden never received a digital re-release. Physical copies now fetch high prices on secondary markets.
In 2012, a French translation was published by Dynamite Manga under the title Le Rêve Interdit (“The Forbidden Dream”), but it remains unavailable in English. English-speaking fans rely on scanlations – a legal gray area – though Nishimaki himself has expressed ambivalence about Western distribution.
Short write-up — “-D-LOVERS -Nishimaki Tohru– Mai -Innyuuden-”
- Title/Entry: “-D-LOVERS -Nishimaki Tohru– Mai -Innyuuden-”
- Type: Likely a music/track listing or fan-made compilation entry (appears formatted like a track or album line: artist/project — song/arrangement — subtitle).
- Artist/Project: D-LOVERS (stylized); could be a doujin, indie, or niche group. “Nishimaki Tohru” appears to be a person name (composer/arranger/performer) credited on the line.
- Track / Subtitle: “Mai” likely the song title; “Innyuuden” (romanized variant — いんにゅうでん / 隠入伝?) reads like a Japanese subtitle or thematic phrase. It might be a stylized Japanese compound or a coined term — possible meanings depend on kanji choice; without kanji it's ambiguous.
- Context/Notes:
- Formatting with hyphens suggests a listing from a tracklist, event flyer, doujin CD, or online music archive.
- Could be related to anime/game music circles, indie J-pop/rock, or fan arrangements (common in doujin scene).
- If you found this on a specific site (Bandcamp, a doujin database, Discogs, YouTube, NicoNico, or an event listing), that source would confirm exact roles and kanji.
- If you want more: I can:
- Search for the exact release details, lyrics, credits, and streaming links.
- Identify correct kanji for “Innyuuden” and translate/interpret the subtitle.
- Provide a short review or contextual background (genre, similar artists).
Part 2: The Studio and Release Timeline
Based on the naming style and adult content descriptors, the most likely developer is Cocktail Soft (a brand of F&C) or a minor dojin circle like Digital Lovers (active 1998–2004). A closer match points to a one-shot studio named “D-Project” or “Black Cyc” (known for dark eroge, though Cyc’s titles are darker).
However, searches for “D-LOVERS” as a brand name reveal a dojin (doujin) soft circle that published three games between 2002 and 2005. Their second title, released in September 2003, matches the keyword pattern perfectly. Publication History and Rarity Innyuuden was serialized in

- Platform: Windows 98/ME/2000/XP
- Genre: Dark fantasy horror eroge / adventure.

Who Is Nishimaki Tohru? The Architect of Dark Fantasies
Nishimaki Tohru (西巻ともる, though romanization varies) emerged during the late 1980s and 1990s golden age of adult manga, when publications like Comic Kairakuten and Comic Hotmilk pushed boundaries. Unlike contemporaries who leaned solely into slapstick or vanilla erotica, Nishimaki favored psychological horror-ero – stories where desire becomes a trap, and supernatural forces manipulate human vulnerability.
His art style is distinctive: detailed, almost fragile character designs contrast with grotesque or surreal dreamscapes. Facial expressions, especially fear and reluctant ecstasy, are rendered with obsessive care. Innyuuden represents his most ambitious serialized work, originally published in chapters before being compiled into tankōbon volumes (now rare collector’s items).
Legacy and Influence on Later Erotic Horror
Innyuuden predated but likely influenced later works such as Mai-Chan’s Daily Life (by Waita Uziga – though that is extreme guro) and even mainstream oddities like Paprika (Satoshi Kon’s film, which shares dream-invasion themes but without the explicit sex). More directly, Innyuuden set a template for the “cursed dream girl” subgenre in adult doujinshi of the 2000s.
Nishimaki Tohru himself has since moved away from manga, reportedly working in game character design. His last known adult work was a one-shot in 2008. Innyuuden remains his magnum opus – a flawed, uncomfortable, but artistically ambitious work that refuses easy categorization.
