The story in the game is largely criticized for its vagueness and lack of coherence, with players expressing confusion about the plot and its progression. While some appreciate the irony and find the storyline acceptable, others feel it is minimal and repetitive, detracting from the overall experience. Overall, the narrative seems to be a mixed bag, appealing primarily to fans of anime aesthetics rather than those seeking a robust story.
“This game combines good irony, entry-level hentai, and a compelling story.”
“Definitely worth playing if you are a fan of anime; the storyline is pretty good, and the characters are appealing.”
“The mission of the prison (which I suppose is the final mission) has a unique structure that loops itself, adding an interesting twist to the narrative.”
“Based on the achievements, I'd guess I'm about 75%+ of the way through, and I still have no clue what the story is supposed to be.”
“Between that, the shortness, and the story (if there even is one), I can't recommend this.”
“The mission of the prison (I suppose it is the final mission) doesn't really end and loops itself.”
