Time period covered: The last ~3 weeks of January 1999
More decent comedy/romance/slice-of-life seen from the perspective of the new guy in town--or at least the guy who hasn't been to the town since a dimly remembered childhood.
Too damn cute: characters with trademark whines like "uguu~" or "auu~".
I enjoy it quite a bit, but
Bad points:
- Deus ex machina endings
- Text skip mode is nice and FAST, but too nondiscriminatory. I liked that the equivalent in Katawa Shoujo had the option to stop skipping when new text was reached. So if you're playing and taking different choices here, you might accidentally skip over something new while trying to quickly get past the old.
- Main character Yuichi gets TOO DEEP into romance too quick. The story doesn't give a lot of time, but it's pretty awkward when after knowing someone for, say, a week's worth of afternoons he's ready to say he wants to spend his entire life with them.
My order of route completion: Mai, Shiori, Ayu, Makoto, Nayuki
