* RomanticizedAbuse: In their first sexual encounter, Miyabi ignores the notion of consent on the part of the protagonist. He undresses and touches her, while she shakes her head frantically in protest and tells him no/to stop more than once. Their relationship progresses from that point, playing out along the lines of the fantasy of being claimed by a strong alpha male. It is notable that when [[spoiler:Nishiki]] tries the exact same thing later in the route, the protagonist feels only revulsion (as opposed to her strong physical and emotional response to Miyabi), and has a LoveEpiphany.

I have issues with this. Moving to discussion.


* AttemptedRape: Miyabi tries to "seduce" the protagonist, but it is clearly rape. He undresses and touches the protagonist without her consent. She shakes her head frantically in protest, tells him no/to stop more than once, and has tears in her eyes. This experience is, however, [[RomanticizedAbuse romanticized]].

Spelling,


* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The first we see of Shinra and Kyouga in the prologue is in the library. Shinra is causing a disruption by loudly complaining about the depiction of demons as villains in folktales like "Literature/{{Momotaro}}." Kyouga, meanwhile, protests the depiction of the wolf in "Literature/LittleRedRidingHood"... because [[HandsomeLech he'd rather go for a sexy lady than some little girl]].

* LittleBitBeastly: Most of the main cast's ayakashi forms involve the addition of some animalistic traits added to their normal human appearances. Miyabi and Kyouga in particular sport furry ears and tails.

* {{Youkai}}: The game calls them "ayakashi" in its modern, synonymous usage, and the plot revolves around the protagonist suddenly becoming aware of the world of such supernatural creatures following the awakening of her power, which is very attractive to ayakashi. Miyabi is a {{Kitsune}}, Chikage is a {{Tengu}}, Shinra is an oni (translated as "demon" in the prologue of the English localization), Kyouga is a wolf (presumably some flavor of okami), and Yukinojo is a yukibito (a male version of a yuki-onna).

Bah, forgot to add: I\'m on the fence whether the last edit makes her a Phlebotinum Girl or a Living Mac Guffin. Feel free to change to whatever suits better.

* PhlebotinumGirl: People with "special blood" are only born every thousand years or so, which makes the protagonist a tempting target for ayakashi of every rank and moral outlook. Not only will any child of hers be extraordinarily powerful, but her presence alone empowers and heals her ayakashi lover.

Adding for clarification, since they\'re pretty consistent about the \"oni\" thing once you hit the actual story. Also, I say \"presumably\" in Kyouga\'s case, as the guys are all clan heads, and okami are explicitly present in the mononoke village.

Freezing in panic is a common reaction to sudden, unexpected danger, and the prologue presents the protagonist\'s reactions in that manner rather than as reasoned responses. That\'s not really enough to qualify as too dumb to live.

* ArtisticLicenseAnimalCare: It turns out to be a moot point since he's hardly a normal fox, but upon encountering Miyabi in his fox form during the prologue, the protagonist feeds him some of her fried tofu and then takes the apparent ''wild animal'' into her bathroom and strips naked in order to give it a bath. Had she done this with a real wild fox instead of a transformed {{kitsune}}, it would most likely have quickly become a painful experience.

''Enchanted in the Moonlight'' is a RomanceGame VisualNovel by Creator/VoltageInc for iOS and Android devices. In it, the player takes the role of a young woman who, although she lives at her family's Shinto shrine, works as a librarian and considers her life completely ordinary... until she begins having strange dreams about monsters trying to kill her and waking up under a red moon.

After a series of strange, life-threatening accidents from which she only narrowly escapes harm, she's approached by a group of strange men who claim that they are not human but ayakashi, and that she has "awakened" to an inborn power that makes her a magnet for all kinds of supernatural nasties hoping to use it to their own benefit.

These five ayakashi are the only reason she's lived through the day, and they promise to continue to protect her... but not for free. Their help comes at a price: her body.

In return for their protection, she'll have to bear one of them a child.

----
!!''Enchanted in the Moonlight'' provides examples of the following tropes:

* {{Kitsune}}: Miyabi, complete with shapeshifting abilities and trickster attitude.
* ParanormalRomance: The basis of the game is the human protagonist's romance with one of several supernatural beings.
* {{Tengu}}: Chikage, though he lacks the long nose which is characteristic of tengu in folklore (this is a romance game, after all).
* {{Youkai}}: The game calls "ayakashi" in its modern, synonymous usage, and the plot revolves around the protagonist suddenly becoming aware of the world of such supernatural creatures following the awakening of her power, which is very attractive to ayakashi. Miyabi is a {{Kitsune}}, Chikage is a {{Tengu}}, Shinra is an oni (translated as "demon" in the English localization), Kyouga is a wolf, and Yukinojo is a yukibito (a male version of a yuki-onna).
* ZashikiWarashi: [[spoiler:Samon]] turns out to be one.
