Machine translation, like DeepL or Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.
Do not translate text that appears unreliable or low-quality. If possible, verify the text with references provided in the foreign-language article.

VR Kanojo gives the player a virtual girlfriend and several scenarios with which to spend time with her.[4] The player interacts with Sakura Yuuhi – a young Japanese girl[4] – in her bedroom.[5] The game is played through a virtual reality headset,[4] with VR controllers simulating the player's hands in-game.[6] The player can answer questions by nodding or shaking their head.[1] The player can customize the girl's appearance with various outfits,[6] can touch the girl and can engage in virtual sex through explicit sexual scenarios, including handjobs, blowjobs and vaginal intercourse.[4]
The rendering in this work is structured across five levels, with the highest level, "high quality," offering detailed mapping, including the texture of Sakura's skin.[7][8]
Collaborations
In May 2018, Illusion adapted VR Kanojo to work with ANTVR's "MIX" headset, to provide an augmented reality experience.[9][10] Illusion and Tokyo-based startup Vaqso collaborated at Unite 2017 to allow VR Kanojo players to use the odor emitting "Vaqso VR" attachment to smell the game character's stockings.[11]
Reception

In a review for Kotaku, Kate Gray writes: "And VR Kanojo gives you what you want: full-blown sex, slightly pixelated but still realistic. But it gives you more than that: it gives you a feeling of intimacy. [...] Perhaps it's possible to virtually replicate intimacy and love. When I'm lying in a virtual bed with a virtual girlfriend, maybe I can believe that."[4]
Successor
In September 2024, Illusion started crowdfunding for a new game building on VR Kanojo.[12]
