Review | I finished the game only weeks ago and I just felt the need to vent my frustration here so other users won’t fall into the trap of expecting anything worthwhile or barely entertaining from this vn. There are very, very few good things about Harukoi Otome I can think of. Some of the sad bgm was ok but some was just annoying and often misplaced in bits where characters resume their ‘slice-of-life mode’. The one barely decent route, in my book, is Riru’s with her constant fights with Arise Yuuki, who by the way was probably the best character of the entire game - yes, a side character turned out better than the heroines. Ayaka’s route was ok too, though that doggy bit was waaaay too dramatic. Played all but one routes and believe me I don’t regret not reading it. If anything, I regret wasting so much time on such an atrocious game. Oh, and for Christ’s sake DON’T go for Sonya’s route. It was awful, nonsensical and the most dragged-out BS I’ve read. If they can’t cook up a good plot for said heroines, just make them side characters. It was so bad it actually felt like a CHORE to read. If you’re still not convinced, check this out. Out of the fifty, yes, FIFTY choices you get on Sonya’s route, I got a bad ending, why’ for screwing up on ONE CHOICE which had absolutely no relevance in the story, or so I thought. Last but not least is probably the worst character in the game, Oikawa with his recurring ‘attempts of a British accent’ and his 180-character change on Yuika’s route. So out of place. Stick with the hentai version and move on. |
