Jan. 2025

The best Visual Novel I've ever played! Personally I played RB too and I hope they will release it on steam. Got 900 saved files on RB version, every scene is just so important to me. This VN is the company through my hard times and gave me a push to try something different in life. Oh yea enough about me, here's what I thought on the game Story:10/10 (Im biased cause I loved this game so much) Character Route:There's actually a route that I find kinda lacking in the development of the character, but they all memorables.. Timeplay: Infinite, I found myself re-playing this masterpiece every year Note:If you are new to visual novels, this is a good start. There are some kinetic novels like ATRI but it's kinda different. Just buy this one and find the RB (Reflection Blue) ver online

Dec. 2024

I purchased this visual novel in December 2024, and I must say, it remains a highly enjoyable experience. The VN boasts stunning visuals, exceptional voice acting, beautiful music, an engaging and exciting story, and fun mini-games to keep you entertained. These mini-games provide a refreshing break from reading, ensuring you won’t feel bored. I’m writing this review gradually, so please forgive any typos! Review Summary: Visuals: 9/10 Voice Acting: 9.5/10 Story: 8.9/10 Music: 10/10 Mini-games: 8/10 !Spoiler Alert! A girl searching for herself: Tsumugi Wanders (9/10) I started with Tsumugi Wanders’ scenario She loves collecting toys and treats them as her friends. Her first friend is Shizuku, then Hairi, and the three form a close bond. Tsumugi has a unique way of speaking, often saying “mugyu,” and she adores sugar candies. I wasn’t sure how to navigate the scenarios, so I jumped straight into Tsumugi’s—and unknowingly, I stumbled upon an emotional rollercoaster. The story alternates between moments of happiness, warmth, and heart-wrenching sadness, leaving me emotionally invested. As I progressed, I felt the urge to protect Tsumugi, much like Hairi does. A girl who has forgotten how to enjoy summer vacation: Naruse Shiroha (8/10) Naruse Shiroha is the first heroine Hairi encounters. She’s a peculiar, shy girl who distances herself from others due to a personal reason. Despite her reserved nature, Hairi persistently tries to communicate with her, breaking down her walls. This scenario truly captures the essence of a summer vacation! It’s both exciting and romantic, though it also left me pondering and curious with each progression. For now, however, I feel content and happy with how the story unfolded. A girl chasing the island’s legend: Sorakado Ao (8.5/10) Sorakado Ao is a girl chasing an island legend. She’s a tsundere, but in a charming way. This scenario beautifully portrays the romantic journey between Hairi and Ao, with their bond deepened by the constant presence of Inari, who adds a delightful touch to the story. I found this scenario breathtaking and masterfully crafted. Every moment feels meticulously planned, right up to the satisfying conclusion. I highly recommend this storyline—though, of course, you’ll want to experience all the scenarios eventually, hehe. A girl searching for treasure: Kushima Kamome (9/10) Kushima Kamome is a mysterious girl who always carries a suitcase. Her scenario takes you on an exhilarating treasure hunt on Torishirojima Island alongside Hairi. This storyline inspires a spirit of adventure, making me want to craft my own epic tales and bring them to life! It’s unlike any story I’ve read before, with unexpected twists that kept me on edge. The surprises and heartfelt moments made my heart race and left a lasting impression. Alka & Pockets (10/10) Fried rice. That’s all I can say. This visual novel is a treasure trove of emotions, and each scenario offers something unique and memorable. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an immersive, beautifully crafted experience!

Aug. 2024

As someone who has never played a Key visual novel before, the experience was a breath of fresh air. I particularly enjoyed the mundane summer vibes and wacky fun shenanigans going on, and I adored each route of the game. However, as much as I liked it, I have mixed feelings upon certain elements upon finishing it that left me feeling a little sour about it, but I still enjoyed the experience nonetheless and hope to visit other Key visual novels someday. The soundtrack is also a banger. Tsumugi is the best. Mugyu~

July 2024

Good game, but i reccomend downloading the Reflection Blue version of the game which can be found on DLSite, it has a fan translation (which is very good) and adds a bunch of new story to the game (new routes for the girls, better ending, more history of the island, more ost)

June 2024

very good story with amazing and interesting characters with great and touching music, and after going on a binge of reading through this visual novel im sad that i finished it and want more
