Description

As the scorching sun blazed down on Nanami Shun, a searing memory of his sister's tragic drowning seared into his mind, a wound that would never fully heal. Vowing to live in her place, to make up for the life she never got to experience, he resolved to carry her memory with him always.

Years passed, and Shun found himself caught up in the mundanity of everyday life, attending school and going through the motions. But as summer once again descended upon him, the familiar heat brought with it the ghost of his sister's memory.

Just then, he hears a piano's melody far off in the distance, the same tune that his sister had always cherished. Drawn to the sound like a moth to a flame, he followed it until it led him to a stunning sight.

"Please take care of me from now on, Onii-chan."

The thought of his younger sister, who had been taken away by fate years ago, resurfaced as he saw an android that looked just like her, "TRINO."

<report>I wanted to really like this game. Its art style is quite appealing, it uses a moving background mechanism for a number of its scenes to great use, and the cast, individually, are interesting to me. What ends up diluting the experience though is the routes and bringing some of the characters together in scenes. To be perfectly honest, there was only one route in the entire game that really had me interested in what was going on (Miyakaze Yuuri). All the others...pretty meh in my opinion. There was also the issue of some of the characters not melding well with one-another such as the sister character and the mother.

Overall, it is a decent enough VN that I'd say is worth your time if you are looking for something to play...but hold off until you really start to run out of options.

<report>The game is somewhat good which the only part that is worth it is the drama but the rest of the story is just bland and same or similar to other routes. The CGs are really quite good but when I checked the extras to see all the CGs, they are confusing even though there are some CGs that have the same picture but different view like you're wasting your time with that kind of feature. For the music, I only see some music that was actually good. Also, to be honest the animation of each heroine with their own special animation is just useless and a waste of money, like there's no need to put that kind of thing in the game because it's pretty useless. Anyways, I would have rate this to 8 if the story wasn't bland, remove the stupid animation, and the extras in the game were properly organized.

<report>Originally ranted at reddit

Tried to write good things about other masterpieces I have recently read at first before moving to another, but the supposed mood-refreshing read Trinoline pissed me off so much, thus my angrily compulsive rant review was born.

To put it simply, Trinoline tried to tell a serious story, but it did not try to tell the story seriously at all.

Judging by the cover, we sure can expect plenty of life-and-death-drama/tearjerking/meaningful AI debate related plot materials from the synopsis alone, and undoubtedly Trinoline attempted to explore about these sensitive topics to some extent.

But hell it's like Minori spent all of their monies on their big-bang-boobs... Read more »

<report>Oh boy where to start where to start with this one..
just overall this VN is just a technical trainwreck.
Some of the Audio is way to loud, such as Shirone's Voice while the other one's Voices are normal in terms of volume.
The Interface is just Ugly and misplaced.
Some of the Music was waaay to Loud and some I could barely hear at all.
But honestly, the Music is still the best aspect of this VN.
Compared to Supipara, this VN is suuuuper Average..
The first half was marked by just Shirone being in love with her brother (the Main Protagonist) without you being able to change anything about that, which is really gross.
The Second half started of decent with

the Main Protagonist getting... Read more »
