Character development is noted for its quirky and unconventional design choices, with unique and often odd hairstyles and outfits that contribute to a distinctive aesthetic. However, the variety in school uniforms and unusual character traits may detract from a cohesive narrative or relatability.
“The character development is incredibly rich, with each character having a unique backstory that adds depth to their personality and motivations.”
“I love how the characters evolve throughout the game; their interactions and choices really shape who they become by the end.”
“The game does an excellent job of making you feel invested in the characters' journeys, as you witness their growth and transformation over time.”
“Character design is cute but mostly leans toward odd; everyone has a different school uniform for some reason and hairstyles are strange. One girl has what looks to be a bag on her head with a gigantic safety pin, one has her hair cut at five different lengths, and another tied her hair together in front, resembling a beard, to name just a few.”
“The character development feels shallow and lacks depth; I couldn't connect with any of the characters on an emotional level.”
“There are too many characters introduced at once, making it hard to keep track of their backstories and motivations.”
