I stumbled upon this series pretty randomly even though it has been almost out for a decade, nonetheless it is quite under the radar at least here on Steam based on just the review numbers.

What stands out right away is the E-mote system, you can see it was early years because the sprites are still a bit stiff despite being animated but they do their job properly.

Art and voice acting are great, while the story was not super deep, so far it is decent and fun, lenght is roughly 5-7 hours.

The only part I disagree with are the H-scenes, do not get me wrong, the scenes themselves are really good but let me elaborate.

They are outside the main story in a menu (if you got the patch) but the biggest issue with them is that none of the main story refers to them, it is hinted that MC is close with certain girls but not in a girlfriend and boyfriend kind of way.

It feels like they are just made up scenes for the sake of it at which point why even bother?
A very strange design choice in my eyes.

Maybe I could be wrong and they just take place in the future or something (although that would contradict certain plot points), I have not played the other two volumes yet but I am curious if the scenes remain in this format or not.

Anyway, this probably will not bother the majority of people so I recommend diving in.
