The Little Busters are forever. I was very surprised by the soul within this game, I had fun every route and enjoyed the entire cast of characters. Refrain is an amazing end and the EX routes add some of my favorite characters. It really is just a game that reminds you of the importance of friendships

I have to say I first got to know Little Busters through anime, and only later discovered the game on Steam, so I played it with a basic understanding of the story. To be honest, neither Japanese nor English is my native language, and during the game, I used a dictionary to learn English bit by bit. Nevertheless, I felt incredibly happy. "Like a fleeting dream, upon waking, the lingering sorrow and tenderness still tugs at my heartstrings." I'm glad that this story has touched the hearts of others as well. --------------- I used to drop out of school and stay at home, full of disappointment in life. It was Little Busters who redeemed me and gave me the courage to face life again. I wholeheartedly recommend this game to you .

I only completed the main story (refrein). One day I might come back to do the extra routes. It's an extremly emotional story, I really enjoyed it a lot. One of my fav VNs from the key studio that I have read, its up there with clannad for me. It has a lot of slice and life and goofy scenes when not much happens, you gotta learn to enjoy them to like this game. They make all the heavy things hit harder later down the line.
