< report >Completed 2 routes Mayas and Yukino's.

Both of these routes are playing with themes of
jealousy and netorare which I find extremely cheap and unoriginal. Drama is build up on these with an MC who is as dumb as rocks.

Drama also doesn't develop naturally its created because of an MC, who's dumber and more ignorant than the biggest shut-in around the globe. You can't even self insert in such moron, because this imbecile is an insult to all blank slate characters out there.

Alot of foreshadowing and minimal character development in both of these routes.

Is this the kind of stuff, I can expect from the rest of the routes or does it'll get better sometime? Why do people rate this VN so high?

Apart of art style and bgm, this VN doesn't win any awards from me. VA is okay, nothing more.

< report >I never knew it has netorare since I don't see any related tags. I've read only until some Maya's first H-scenes. I hate NTR tbh but still I want to read this again one day. Mind if I get some minor spoilers about it?

Apart from it, it has a really good vocal soundtrack that you should check out right away while it doesn't count to how it affect the main game anyway. (not to mention other tone works' games' vocal too)

< report >The NTR isn't executed so don't worry but the drama is build upon the feeling of it.

Only cheap romance VN's, Animes etc. are rely on such pathetic measures to create artificial drama to fill in plot. It works incredibly well because the MC reaches alarming levels of "hetare" and "donkan" behaviour.


Maybe im biased because I came stright from AOKANA, and even the little romance there is in AOKANA is better executed than this right here.

Sprites first romance VN -Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate- is also better than this. So I would rather suggest people to read that.

Other routes are basically the same as Maya's); very heavy-handed draggy drama mixed with a theme in each (There's another NTR-ish route you haven't read yet). If you don't like this, think you might wanna put it down and read something like Giniro Haruka as that's a great mix of this VN plus Hoshi Ori Yume Mirai imo

thx for answering question.

So from 5 heroines routes we have 3 with NTR'ish elements and jealousy.. wow, makes me believe the author had a kink for this kind of drama.

However, I don't, so I'll drop this for good. May request this to people who are liking crap from atelier sakura or something. I mean, there are no NTR h-scenes but at least they can jerk off to all the drama here.
