ReviewWELL WELL WELL IF IT'S NOT FUCKDAYS

Schooldays no masterpiece, a decent vn without stalled animation and a common route I did so many times that watching tiktok videos is ten times funnier now.

Only worth endings are the bad ones for me. It captures the greatest badness of all toxic relationships, over amplified character reactions by making them going dere-dere, and that is quite entertaining.
H-scenes are what I would call a shame, 恥恥. NO really why do you care about making a anime-vn and adding no values to the most beloved parts of an eroge ? H-scenes are loops of loops inside a loop.

the bad :
- I first thought they would consider serious relationships/connections between characters, they try do dramatize every piece of it.
-+ MC is a disgusting douchebag with his own thought process, the sins lead him in the call of booty and lewdness.
- Strongly linked to the above point, our choices matter. Or do they ? The devs tease the player by giving them choice forks, and then it's crushed, sometimes by the mc, sometimes by the route.
- Followed a walkthrough, but black magic happened and I forked on another route for no other reasons than the game is faulty, and bugged
- It crashed, a hell lot.

The good :
+ Characters are no cliché, they grow and all of them are blend in black and white, they are plausible. I admit Kotonoha is a little too simple, innocent, causing the game to have misunderstanding too many times.
+ Hella lot of endings, the good ones are so-so, the bad ones are great. Even the harem endings can't really satisfy my persona. I can only worry on the future of their triangle love.
+ Sekai's mother best girl.
+ In reality there are some variations of the common route, the map is not clear though. The more important chapters are five and six.

fav endings :
Pushed too far = To my children > Forever = Bloody Ending > Setsuna's Feeling = Christmas Eve = All Hers = Eearnest Feeling Requited = Two Lovers
