“Love the artwork, but not a fan of the violent themes.”

Reviews highlight a disconnect between the protagonist's actions and the deeper emotional connections typically found in dating sims, suggesting that while players may feel like a romantic figure, the character lacks true understanding of love and emotional attachment. This creates a mixed emotional experience, where the fantasy of romance is present, but the depth of genuine feelings is absent.
“I've seen a few label this as a dating sim, but I don't think the protagonist is capable of comprehending the emotional attachment and endearment that is love.”
