Description

Mihama Academy - on the surface, a closed learning environment established to nurture students who find themselves at odds with the world around them; in actuality, an orchard-cum-prison built to preserve fruit that has fallen too far from its tree.

Whatever the circumstances behind its establishment, Mihama Academy is at present home to five female students, all with their own reasons for "enrollment." For better or worse, each girl has established a routine obliging of her current situation; life moves at an idle, yet accommodating pace within the walls of Mihama.

Yet with the arrival of the institute's first male student, the nearly preposterously opaque Kazami Yuuji, the students at Mihama begin to fall out of step with their predetermined rhythms. Will Yuuji prove to be the element the girls around him needed to take hold of their lives once more, or will the weight of their pasts prove too steep a wall to overcome?

And in the first place, just who is Kazami Yuuji? While the true nature of the "job" he is wont to alight to at the most haphazard of moments remains shrouded in secrecy, one thing is for certain - his encroachment upon the quiet orchard known as Mihama Academy will prove itself momentous in one way or another. And of course, one cannot discount the possibility that perhaps Yuuji himself carries the weightiest past of any of the students...

<report>Grisaia is one of those VNs that is difficult to quantify in a single review score. It's nothing short of extreme - I've seen it summarized as a "harem on cocaine", which feels very accurate. Most plot elements are ballooned out of proportion onto a scale you rarely see with other VNs, especially not harems. And while, for the most part, many more people seem to like rather than hate it, Grisaia is a very polarising VN. I don't think I've seen a single person say that it's just "okay" - it's either an extreme love, an extreme hate, or an extreme love/hate relationship.

My recommendation here differs based on how critical you are as a reader. If you're emotionally focused when it comes to... Read more »

<report>While Fruits of Grisaia is a highly regarded VN, I found large parts of it aggressively bad. It's ostensibly a romance/drama VN with a premise and heroines that seem interesting at first, but things are quickly brought down by probably the worst protagonist in any VN I've read and tedious pacing issues.

Yuuji, the protagonist of Grisaia, is by far the biggest problem with the experience, and he reads like a Mary Sue dreamed up by a 15 year old redpill in training. In addition to making him a super spy who can do anything and an edgy dick, Frontwing takes almost every opportunity to highlight how cool, brooding, and aloof he is, and it quickly becomes cringey. Most of the common route is... Read more »

<report>First played this game in 2015, finishing only Michiru route. Finally managed to replay and complete it... 7 years later.

Common route was so good. But it's not like the routes are bad, it's like they are a different game. Short review for all of them (in the order i played them):

Makina: Very solid route. Tons of action to keep you engaged and well done dramatic moments.
I did feel like the romance was a bit forced, but not as much as other routes. Also not a fan of both finales.
Sachi: Pretty good route overall. Nothing too bad but nothing that excels. Late second half was boring af, but the finale is probably the best out of all routes.
Amane: Boring and non-existent first half. Then... Read more »

<report>(Warning I suck at English so plz excuse any grammar/spelling shenanigans)

This is certainly a long-ass VN (68 hrs~) but since I did finish the Muv Luv trilogy in 1 week, this isn't too bad.
The common route is where I think turns people off the most, not because it's bad, but because it's long and prob not the main reason we are all here.

Non-spoiler:

For the common route, I heavily recommend taking your time and enjoying it. The joke and the shenanigans are just great and I find myself grinning and laughing the majority of the time. So far prob the best comedy so far that I read from a VN. Yuuji's deadpan humor and the girls' ridiculous act are just the best combinations for comedy.

<report>The game so divided let’s say into two halves I’ll say it’s best to describe it as “common route” and "character routes" the former being mostly goofy jokes to build a fun atmosphere and grow your attachment to the girls , the latter varies on the character but is mostly a drama.

The story is in my opinion very good there’s a lot to unpack and there’s a bigger story under in the background that you must piece together as you finish each route which adds a bit a mystery to the game that for me helped drive me forward never growing board of what I was reading.
I’m sure I could nit pick a few things like certain things drag on a little bit when reading but at the end of the day these things... Read more »

<report>I got around to reading Grisaia no Kajitsu.

The common route was quite a lot of fun and surprisingly didn't drag on at all for me. I often heard about how long it was, so I was worried since I don't have much of an attention span, but it was over before I knew it, and when getting into the seriousness of the routes, I found myself kinda missing the comedy.

And there is the problem I had with Grisaia; the writing of the routes was quite a letdown. They basically all dragged on too long with the "setup", and just when things started to get exciting, the route would end. Or it wouldn't get very exciting in the first place, and I'd end up thinking "Oh, it was all resolved just like that... Read more »

<report>Half of the visual novel is a telling of shenanigans, while the latter half splits to five heartbreaking stories where 'the fire really hits the fan'. The gist of it is about a protagonist being played the fool by students with abnormal personalities, having the most sane personality out of the rest of the students of the school. You are led to solving a trauma for one of the five students you decide on, the trauma that resulted in their abnormal personality..
The shenanigans portion of the game before the route splits off might seem like your normal everyday conversations, but there are a huge number of hints being dropped from each and every character's lines as the conversation flows on... Read more »

<report>I don't think I will ever forget this visual novel its a masterpiece. Starting with its litterally the funniest ever visual novel ive read for the entire common route, I do feel there is also some very funny moments in the heroin routes too. As this was a visual novel where you could do the heroin routes in any order I opted to start with Yumiko's Route and I have to say its very good and I really enjoyed it. Yumiko is a very good character and I was instantly drawn to her as a character so I opted to start with who's route I thought I would enjoy the most.

Yumiko's Route gets an 8 from me.

I then moved on to Michiru a charachter I found extremely funny but wasn't sure how id connect to... Read more »

<report>Grisaia is highly original and an absolute stunner. I read this VN in 2019 and it was by far the longest one on my list. It's the fourth VN I've read and I can safely say it's the best one yet. Grisaia is nothing at all like the other VNs on SET 1 of my list; it's SET 1-4 and the ones that came before it were all moege. In fact, I'd go as far as to call Grisaia an elite, and even the "wolf in sheep's clothing" which plunges into topics near which most moege fear to tread.

This game is set in Mishima Cape, a fictional town in Kanagawa Prefecture. Mihama Academy, unlike most VNs with highschool setting, is a private dormitory which is home to five, later six students who have all had a... Read more »

<report>The Fruit of Grisaia is a highly entertaining story of a pragmatic military-type character who attends a high school with only five students in it (girls), and how he gradually forms a connection with them.

For me the strongest aspect of this VN is the comedy. The banter between the characters is pretty great, and the characters are really likeable and funny. There is the wonderful, sarcastic yet naive maid Sachi, the energetic kid-type Makina, and a bunch of other great girls.

The serious sides of this story can be pretty emotionally draining, and explore the traumatic backstories of the girls at the academy. For me, they were a bit much at times and I much prefer the lighter sides of... Read more »

<report>The Fruit Of Grisaia is one of the biggest visual novels out there, both in size and production quality. The script is around a million words long and the novel takes over 50 hours to read through. However Grisaia suffers from some pacing issues, and a lot of the filler content feels repetitive. In my opinion the game would have been better off with about a third of the script cut out or compressed.

The game begins with a lengthy common route, after which you will get one by one choices, that will ultimately set you off to a character route with one of the five heroines. All of these routes will then have two endings, which you'll get based on a choice you make towards the end of the route... Read more »

<report>These are my initial thoughts of the game as I played through each route. This is not necessarily a review or a recommendation, but can be taken as such with the volume of text and minor spoiler nature of my thoughts. They are not polished or edited like an essay, and it may read rough because of that. Also, this is my first review so the reading could be rough because of that too. Starting with general info like UI/UX, movies, cg/bg work, music, and character art. Then in order are my thoughts on the common, mitcher, yumiko, sachi, amane, and makina routes. After that is a reflection of the overall game, and my rating of each route/heroine.

Menus are all working and good, no extra content... Read more »

<report>Ah, the Fruit of Grisaia. Quite a game, apparently.
I played it because a friend of mine recommended it. Now, I didn’t have high hopes. Nor did I expect utter garbage. One can say that I was correct to expect something in the middle. To keep it brief: I didn’t like the game. I did not enjoy it. Some people did. And I wouldn’t want to invalidate their experience. However, I found myself dreading the game. I beat the common route and then Sachi’s route. Couldn’t go further than that. Why? Well…

1) I didn’t like the characters. That’s the most serious blow that can be dealt to a VN centred on inter-character interactions. I hated Michiru (I did hear that you stop hating her after playing her... Read more »

<report>Don't get me wrong the game is great and all but, What the F?! How f-ing long is this game???? I took me literally a month to finish the common route! Though of course it was entertaining to read, but still it took me a MONTH! I'm not a hardcore VN player, I don't play VN that long, only 1-2 hours per gameplay.

To be honest with you, this is one of the longest VN I've ever played. I have never played such a long VN games in my life, good God this is why I don't want to play a very long visual novel games, why? This is why

The main reason why I played the game is because I was just curious, I actually already watched the anime years ago and never get a chance to play the VN version. And of... Read more »
