Sol Press, along with MiKandi Japan, is crowdfunding a Western release of Newton and the Apple Tree.

If we had a nickel for every time anime rewrote history to turn an important historical figure into an anime girl, we’d have a lot of nickels. Earlier this year, Laplacian did that once again in the comedic eroge Newton to Ringo no Ki. Starting today, Laplacian, Sol Press, and MiKandi Japan are attempting to fund a Western release for the visual novel Newton and the Apple Tree. You can support it now on Kickstarter.

In Newton and the Apple Tree, protagonist Syuiji Asanaga inadvertently ends up traveling through time while trying to find his missing grandfather. Upon arriving, he finds a young girl who just happens to be the historically famous Sir Issac Newton. Syuiji’s actions begin to have an impact on time. Now he must try to undo what he did, and get back to his home in the future.

Story

“’Newton’ was actually the pen name of a brilliant-minded girl!?”

Protagonist Syuji Asanaga and his childhood friend Yotsuko Utakane, whilst tracking down Syuji’s missing grandfather, unexpectedly ended up travelling through time.

What they witnessed upon their arrival was the presence of a single girl right in front of them.

This particular girl would go on to be dubbed as the father of modern-day science, Sir Isaac Newton!

That’s correct, Newton turned out to be a small, flat-chested girl!

Unaware of this, Syuji loudly crashed into the apple tree right in front of the girl.

“Just now… I came up with something that might be incredibly ground-breaking, you know!?”

It was at the moment our main couple travelled through time,

right then and there, that Newton discovered universal gravitation!

And just like that, through Syuji’s witless conduct, the great scientific discoveries of that century had all crumbled to ashes.

What’s more, like the domino effect, this would gradually end up altering key points in history.

It is now sometime during the 17th century!

The story is set at a prestigious English university called “Tenbridge University”, named for the fact that it spans a total of ten bridges!

Will Syuji ever be able to rectify history and return to the present!?

“an extremely funny, but also slightly touching”

time travel adventure!
