Review	This review is solely based on the remastered version. This game is completely different from the typical Visual Novels we see today. Every day, you have to choose your own actions. You might think it's a bit troublesome, especially in a multi-route scenario. But it's precisely the accumulation of our daily choices that allows us to understand who we truly love, and this is precisely what the game intends to convey—the entanglements of love. There is no love without reason, and everything we do has meaning. I started playing this game because I was interested in the character design of Ogata Rina, while Yuki's image seemed too one-dimensional to me. However, as the days progressed, I gained a different perspective on everyone. Each heroine has distinct characteristics and charm, and the quality of the animated drawings and music is also exceptional. The protagonist already has a girlfriend at the beginning, which means everything you do pushes you closer to infidelity. I couldn't bear the pressure of betraying Yuki, so I kept wandering in and out of other heroines' routes, only to end up in a not-so-good route with Yuki. You have to hurt some people to love some others. There's no perfection. It reminds me of some unpleasant things in reality. The pain etched itself into my heart, conflicting with my daily expectations. If there's any flaw in this game, it's that the male protagonist lacks a distinctive personality portrayal. He only has a weak heart and a tendency to escape, which resonates with some young people's psychology, include me. Fin,The music is extraordinary. It provided half of the atmosphere in the game.

Here's a couple of examples (There are more). "I started playing this game because I was interested in the character design of Ogata Rina, while Yuki's image seemed too one-dimensional to me" What does this mean, for instance? Is it the character design, the personality, or both? How about this? "The pain etched itself into my heart, conflicting with my daily expectations". Wouldn't it be the other way around, and the pain resonates or goes hand-in-hand, with each daily option? It's your style, no arguing there, but I feel like being clearer would be helpful (assuming you want to be helpful).Last modified on 2024-08-04 at 07:06
#2 by skydoodle 2024-08-04 at 07:15	< report >#1 I use AI translators so my thoughts may not be expressed well...I am sorry for that. Now let's solve the problem. Obviously both. btw, This is just my impression when I first started playing the game. Ordinary kindness, ordinary lack of characteristics. “The pain etched itself into my heart, conflicting with my daily expectations”.This sentence needs to be considered in the context of previous sentences, as I found Yuki to be too bland and thus chose to interact with other heroines every day. However, the ultimate decision I made was unable to accept completely betraying Yuki, which led to harming everyone and ultimately the not-so-good ending.
