Nov. 2024

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 .

Oct. 2024

I haven't played the additional Ecstacy routes/content yet, but I just finished the main game, and I just have to get this off my chest. Little Busters as amazing. Simply fantastic. It's not for the feint of heart though. There is a LOT of content to play through. It's a very long game, and I will say that the game didn't hook me as hard as others early on, and while I was kept pretty engaged through most of the game, and I had a lot of laughs and tears, it just seemed to be missing that special sauce that made me love its sister game, Clannad, so much. Well good things come to those who wait, and, it's really hard to explain what makes Little Busters 1000% worth it in the end without spoilers, but just rest assured that all of the character development, world building, and silly antics are worth it, and add up to an extremely emotional and satisfying conclusion that had me giggling, crying, and smiling all at once as those final credits scrolled by. I recommend to the highest degree if you enjoy something long with a lot of jokes, a lot of wholesome friendships, perplexing mysteries, and incredibly powerful emotions 10/10, would shed tears while writing the review for the game I cried 43 times during again.

July 2024

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.

July 2024

A story of friendship, loss, and finding the will to keep going. Little Busters made me cry so hard. The only other piece of media able to do that was Clannad: After Story, which were both written by Jun Maeda. He knows whats up... But in all honesty, this visual novel is worth the hours. It was funny, thought provoking, and simply one of the greatest stories I've ever seen. I would recommend this visual novel to anybody who is interested in the Visual Novel genre or is looking for a comfort game. Jun Maeda, you truly are the goat.

83 hours - time it took to complete main story (refrain) If you like Key you absolutely should play this If you don't know anything about key you probably should try this it's great
