I haven't played much thus far, but that is only because of outside circumstances. So far really enjoy this game. The characters are lively and funny. It's shows through the art as well. So playing this visual novel is a bit more like reading a comic/manga than others I've played. I find that quite enjoyable. I will update my review later as I play. But so far, this visual novel is worth the money. I've played a bit longer, and I'd say this is the most animated visual novel I've played, and it's pretty darn hilarious.

The plot is simple, easy to understand and the time in the game is not long, only about a few months (the real time to complete all the endings is about 6 hours). The game is quite humorous with the addition of chibi segments and some very funny expressions of the characters to surprise the player. The general atmosphere of the game is quite pleasant and gentle (except for some segments of the character Zhi Kong). The main content also focuses on love and marriage, not mentioning much about other factors such as politics or career like some other visual novels, so it is quite easy to understand. The game's voice is quite good, the characters are all voiced separately, giving a different feeling. The background music is also gentle and suitable, the bell sound every time the chapter changes is quite rich in traditional culture. The game has some 15+ scenes, although a bit harsh with the content of male characters following religion =)) but it brings a feeling of entertainment to the player. To achieve the endings is also a bit tricky, because although there is a favorability bar in the game, after making choices the favorability bar does not change immediately, causing some confusion for the player. The game has 2 options: bald or with hair. However, for normal players, perhaps the option with hair would be more reasonable because the feeling of flirting with the monk is quite strange =)).

Is ok, is fun a bit much on the s. assault theme for me, it doesnt matter if its a good or bad ending, your MC are going to get s.a by someone but ive seen weirder shit on other otomes. The fun part is actualy how bad is everything xD.

I absolute love VTML, so I decided to give this a chance. And man, this was a surprising win! The character development was great - surprising, full of depth, and not at all ridiculous (as I saw some mention). There's a ton of joke, quirks, and parody moments (and more than one throw to Gintama, to boot), sure - but there's real, serious life-drama going on, too. I thought the story was really well-done given the subject matter, too. Beyond that, the music and voice acting are easy standouts. You will not find better value just in that, alone. The art, UI, and setup/config is all well-done. The glossary was also extremely helpful. The writing isn't "flawed", as some have said - not being your cuppa doesn't mean it's inherently flawed or poorly-done. It just means it's not your jam - that doesn't mean it's not somebody else's. Anyway, I loved the depth of each character, not just in their own routes - but in the others', as well. There's a little bit extra of each in each, if that makes sense - so it's not just a bunch of repetition. In the end, the only real complaint, if you could even call it that - the bad end's for the first two came with an alt/dark-styled CG - whereas the 3rd was in the style of the other CGs. I'm not sure if it was intentional, or just oversight - but it would've been kind of cool to see how they'd style such an alt/dark bad end for him, is all. All-in-all - this is some amazing bang for your buck! Between this and VTML, this Dev/Pub is on my shortlist, for sure. I love it.

This game had been sitting in my library unplayed for probably around a year or so and I finally decided to play it. Honestly? Ended up being pretty good. Full-voice acting (which is rare for games under $20) and partially animated cgs, which is pretty unique and I can't really say I've seen many other otomes that do that- its a shorter game, but I feel like those features justify the price tag. That and the fact you can LITERALLY turn the characters' hair on and off. 100/10 innovation. Story-wise... I mean for as short as the game was (similar length to a Dogenzaka Games otome), I feel like the relationship between the MC and the LI's were established pretty decently; not exactly a slow-burn, but reasonably paced given the overall length of the game. It could also be pretty funny or serious when it wanted to be without feeling forced, which is always nice. Oh- and the mild spice wasn't bad either, heheh... All that to say- honestly not a bad game. For what I paid I was expecting a lot less so I was pleasantly surprised.
