NEVER DATE A LIGHTSKINNED WOMAN, WORST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE! I had a rough couple of times trying to get through this visual novel a lot and that's the only reason why it took me so long to finish this. However, its not a lie when I say that this story is heart gripping and well written in a manner that allows you to get very attached to the characters, making the finale much better. For a studio's first game, this is really good. The art, mainly just the character art since everything from background assets to just the backgrounds are photoshop jobs. The character art presents a really unique art style that I haven't seen at any other visual novel, so maybe the artist did work elsewhere. The very few CG scenes you'll get are really good looking. Lilun has the best design but she has to due to the current context and being the main character. The story will go back and forth from very serious to very comedic and loving but the entire story is about a relationship between the two characters. It then taking detours to solve the other cast members internal issues, before returning to a main issue. The finale is the best part, bar none, but the stuff before is great. the music, I really don't have much to say on, its stock music they bought, I think but I'm unsure, the point I'm making is that regardless its still really good. To this point in time, I have one of the OSTs stuck in my head. Also to note, there's not a lot of music, 4 songs, that's it. I really really really recommend this if you want a well made linear visual novel, trust me.

good story & great art need more cgs and less sound effects (the explosive one is awkward sometimes)

9.7/10 Best Love VN I have played. GP: Daily talk and touched story, especially during the character POV change you can see the story more deep which let you under the totally story better. When I play EP3 every emotion burst in a sudden and can't help myself. The most I like the topic the story wanna show : Fate. Nothing is decided unless you have said no to yourself. The story about friendship and fighting I still will pay for that with tears. No BP: I just reduce this 0.3 because I wanna the music collection badly, please. And hoping the Append will have the EN version soon.

An indie visual novel that was so well received, that it got an English translation and release even on consoles. The plot has magic and Okinawan folklore, but the focus is on the relationship between people. Akari chapter is the weakest, I didn't really like it. Especially when stupid, absurd, silly nonsense began to happen. Fortunately, it was only in this chapter. Tsumugi chapter I liked very much. It was touching and sad. And next Lilun chapter. It didn't disappoint either. Finally we learn more about her and protagonist. Some questions have not been answered and there are some strange plot twists. I guess people who analyze and theory crafting will find holes in the plot. But I'm not like them. I just read and enjoy. Not everyone will like this VN. I have a friend who didn't like it. As for me, I don't consider it a 10/10 masterpiece. It's just a good VN which I didn't mind spending time on.

If only there wasn't so little art, as others have said before me the game truly lacks in sprites, and the backgrounds being IRL pics could've been an interesting choice if not for the unfortunate lack of diversity, the slice of life moments which are the core of the game, while fun, end up being kind of repetitive in nature due to the background almost never changing. I will say though, the story itself is great, I geniuenly really liked it, outside of some more technical issues about the composition of the story, I kept feeling like I wanted more "visual" in this visual novel, so why do I recommend it ? Because of how touching I very deeply felt that the story was and how interesting some decisions were form the authors, though I fear I cannot comment further in fears of spoiling the best parts. If you're new to Visual Novels this will most definitly be a great first.
