ReviewWorst thing I've ever had the displeasure of reading. Terrible plodding exposition dumps, awful characters that are only there to be attracted to Takeru, and some of the grossest stuff I've seen in my life with the twizzlers. Also the entire vn is just imperialist Japanese propaganda the whole way through. Never read this if you value your time.

< report >The fact you say it's "imperialist Japanese propaganda" says a lot about your reading comprehension ability.

< report >So a mod will delete my comment calling out bait but won't delete the actual bait review. Good job guys, big thumbs up, you're doing great

< report >I prevented this "bait" form getting bumped to the home page with your pointless reply, but I guess you like the review so much you'd rather bring even more attention to it. Fine, have it your way, back on the home page again. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

< report >If you didn't want it getting bumped to the home page, you know what's an effective course of action? Deleting the review itself - especially when it's coming from a blank account with no other activity, aka extremely obvious bait that contributes nothing to the overall community.
Not to mention, you had no issue leaving Dogouji's reply up, so this supposed explanation is pure nonsense.

< report >You're right, I deleted your post because it added absolutely nothing of value. This review is fine, though.

< report >If the review is fine, why try to prevent it from getting bumped? You're literally contradicting yourself

< report >Shit makes no sense, but as a big tough moderator-kun, I'm sure you don't care in the slightest. Have a great day

I disagree, the review is talking about the game. Regardless of it's nature, what the reviewer said is relevant criticism to various parts of the game.

You can feel free to challenge that criticism, like what #2 did. That comment is relevant to what the reviewer wrote down, and challenges a point that they made. It questioned the reviewers understanding of the game, against an assumption that the reviewer made.

You did not do that. You made a statement that has no relevance to the games contents, or to any point that the reviewer made. It was just an expression of dislike for a review that is negative criticism and a 1 rating. To put it bluntly, what you posted was completely pointless and did not add anything. What you continue to post is more of the same.

I understand your dislike for this review. I rate this series highly and strongly disagree with the reviewer. However I am not about to demand that the review gets deleted just because it's opposite to my opinions. That would be petty, and childish. I simply ignored it and moved on with my life, like I imagine most people did due to how contrarian the review is. People can judge for themselves if they want to take the review seriously or not.

Further on the topic of deleting the review, and it being a 'blank account'. By that logic this would also mean deleting every short paragraph review that rates the game a 10 as well. Or to be more extreme any review with 1 paragraph and opinions, it makes no sense to do this. While we are at it lets delete anyones review if it's the first review they have ever posted.

Not agreeing with the criticism or how the reviewer expressed such criticism is not grounds for deleting a review. Neither is it grounds if it's the first and only review they ever posted.

One last thing, you do realize that the person to bump this thread again to bring attention to it was you right? a whole 5 months later.Last modified on 2023-07-09 at 03:04
