Review | Should you buy? Yes. This is a good VN with impressive art, production values, and a decent story. The characters are what make it, largely, and some routes are better than others. Ayase - best route, with the best story. Ayase as a heroine is hilarious. This route contains MASSIVE spoilers toward the end with startling revelations, so you may wish to leave this for the last. Nanami - decent route, and Nanami as a character is an absolute cutie. Has probably the biggest "tug at your heartstrings" scene in the VN, in a poignant flashback. Mayu - 2nd best route. Mayu is awesome, and this, combined with Ayase's route, are pretty much the main meat of the story. Hazuki - This route is cancer. Seriously, what the HELL where they thinking with this one?! Avoid reading, unless you want to waste time on a terribly written pile of crap. Chisaki - This one is just a relatively short unlockable. Nothing of major consequence happens, but it's a nice little addition and Chisaki is a likable character. All in all, a very good experience, with Ayase, Nanami, and Mayu's routes making it all worth it. Loses a point for the awful Hazuki route. (The character herself is okay as supporting cast and garbage as a main heroine) Overall score: 8/10 |
