The game's story is surprisingly engaging, featuring the quirky kotonoha sisters and a mix of humorous and serious elements, which adds depth to the narrative. Despite the lack of English translation, players found themselves invested in the charming storyline, appreciating the boldness of its development and the immersive setting. Overall, the storytelling is a standout aspect that enhances the game's appeal.
- “There's an actual legitimate story told, and despite starring the often wacky Kotonoha sisters, I was surprisingly invested.”
- “Sure, most of the antagonists are borderline jokes themselves, and there's always something to lighten the mood (with the exception of the main villain, at least!). To me, it feels like it was a bold move to flesh out the story and setting as much as the game did, and it's one I strongly feel worked out very well in the game's favor.”
- “Its good turn-based RPG, only problem with the game is it has no English, so you can't tell what they're saying or the story unless you just want to make it up from the pictures in the beginning of the game.”
- “Whilst I could not understand the language, believe it or not, I was still very invested in the story and thought it was very charming, as weird as that may sound.”
