| Review | If you want to read some dark cult stuff like I did, this is an appropriate choice. The mystery is interesting, although can feel repetitive at time through the first 3 routes, as many pieces get repeated. Luckily the text skip feature in this is the most accurate of any VN I've read to date. The characters are mostly well written, although at least one of the main routes, felt very shallow, while another had whit written throughout. The final two routes range from tasteful to disgusting, to a large amount of interesting story developments. The romance at time felt tacked on - which was fine, as it let the mystery stay the focus. The sexual content was easily skippable, besides the 4th route where it was pervasive. I had hoped to learn more about the individual it revolves around in that route, but was left with some questions being left open. While that was appropriate for this story, and the mysteries surrounding God & demons, it left me hoping for a bit more, especially given the time it had to deliver the mysteries' conclusions. Overall, it was a fun story that I probably would have enjoyed more as a more succinct Kinetic Novel format. Here are some stats about the VN for other Japanese readers: All routes with most of the bad ends was around 1,000,000 characters. The first 3 routes are around 230k characters with around 100,000 common between them. The final two routes are around 120,000 characters. |
