grinding1 negative mentions
  • Stunning artwork and beautiful character designs that create an immersive visual experience.
  • Excellent soundtrack and voice acting that enhance the emotional and atmospheric depth of the story.
  • Strong writing with elegant prose, meaningful themes, and emotionally impactful routes, especially Mary's and Sayo's.
  • Steam version is incomplete, requiring external patches to access full routes and content.
  • Inconsistent pacing across routes, with some feeling rushed or repetitive, particularly in Mary's later route and the true ending.
  • Certain routes contain problematic content such as incest and non-consensual scenes, and some character motivations feel nonsensical or underdeveloped.

  • story

    41 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    24% positive mentions, 69% neutral mentions, 7% negative mentions

    The story is generally praised for its emotional depth, meaningful parallels, and well-written routes—especially Sayo’s and Akari’s—though some find the pacing rushed and certain plot points abrupt. While the Steam version is limited, requiring patches for full content, the narrative blends drama, supernatural elements, and humor effectively, with notable focus on character development and plot-integrated adult scenes. Despite some uneven storytelling and repetitive aspects, it remains engaging and richly crafted, appealing to fans of Purple Software’s unique style.

    • “Sayo's and Akari's routes were especially well written, and the story's parallel to the blue bird is meaningful.”
    • “It is exceptionally well-written, setting up the emotional stakes perfectly and leaving a profound, lasting impression that draws you right into the story.”
    • “The reference to the Bible, various Shakespearean plays, and other works added a depth to the story that made it stick.”
    • “The pacing becomes noticeably rushed, and several plot developments feel quite abrupt without enough buildup.”
    • “There are reasons they took the approach they did, but it makes the story come off a bit more stilted and repetitive than it should.”
    • “It also has an abnormally high amount of focus on plot important sex scenes, has some outright strange storytelling decisions, and while the writing can be clever there are unfortunate details that are under-explained or purposefully skimmed to move the plot along.”

  • music

    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    64% positive mentions, 9% neutral mentions, 27% negative mentions

    The music is generally praised for its captivating and immersive quality, featuring standout piano and synth tracks alongside lovely background and vocal songs. While some users find the soundtrack phenomenal and a major highlight, others view it as more mixed but still a valuable part of the overall experience. The soundtrack complements the dramatic and supernatural themes, enhancing the visual novel's atmosphere.

    • “The music is phenomenal, the piano goes really hard and there are some amazing synth songs.”
    • “This is a Purple Software game, so it's pervy, the music is pretty great (both BGM and vocal songs), and the engine is unique (CMVs).”
    • “Regarding the music, the tracks are lovely to listen to.”
    • “The music isn't that great.”
    • “If you grew up in the 90's and heard that song by Radiohead 'Creep,' it pretty much summarizes the main route.”
    • “The rest is a mixed bag, but I believe it is a great price for the amount of content and music.”

  • graphics

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 17% neutral mentions, 33% negative mentions

    The game's graphics are praised for their stunning, impeccable artwork and character design, particularly reflecting Koku's signature style. However, some users find the background graphics grainy and lifeless, and certain character sprites appear awkward or "bug-eyed." Overall, the visuals are seen as a strong point despite minor criticisms.

    • “Stunning artwork: visually, the game is a masterpiece.”
    • “As expected from Koku, the art style is absolutely impeccable.”
    • “I'm looking forward to reading more of PurpleSoftware's works as I love the usual art style of Coq, the characters, and particularly the writing.”
    • “I'll just put this out here: I didn't like the art style of the backgrounds, and the sprites for Risa and Mikako look bug-eyed to me.”
    • “The background graphics just look grainy, dark, and lifeless.”

  • humor

    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The humor in the game is generally well-received, offering funny moments and relaxing, slower-paced scenes that fans of Japanese visual novels may appreciate. While the comedy is enjoyable, some users find it occasionally excessive. Overall, the humor complements the dramatic and supernatural story without overwhelming it.

    • “The stories and situations are really funny at times.”
    • “However, I enjoyed these slower moments, as they're relaxing and full of humor.”
    • “If you're a fan of Japanese visual novels, you especially want a story that leans towards the dramatic and supernatural (with some humor and slower moments in between), then this is worth taking a look.”

  • emotional

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The emotional aspect is praised for its exceptional writing and powerful storytelling that deeply engages players and leaves a lasting impact. While some plot elements, such as controversial themes, may be off-putting, the narrative still evokes strong emotional moments, including surprising and well-executed emotional arcs.

    • “It is exceptionally well-written, setting up the emotional stakes perfectly and leaving a profound, lasting impression that draws you right into the story.”
    • “The common route starts off with a very surprising emotional prologue, arguably the best emotional arc in the whole visual novel.”
    • “They do have some sweet moments and made me cry, particularly related to the character Mary.”
