This made me ugly cry. A lot. Stellar storytelling, characters and soundtrack. While I'm praising the game, I'm mostly talking about its main course - Case 0, which is an emotional rollercoaster and one of the best pieces of fiction I've ever read. I found Steam version preferable to 18+ patch which ruins emotional buildup of some scenes, its content feels out of place and tacked on. Other than that? Peak fiction.

The story was emotional and very beautiful, yes it had some flaws in Case 0 and especially in the Epilogue. I have a lot of questions, but not gonna lie, I was more focused on the main characters Kaito and Yonagi rather than questioning the plot. After all, I am fond of them. Overall the music, art, and story are good. The characters for me are well written. One of the best. I really really enjoyed it.

To get this out of the way, I don't support censorship. It's why I didn't buy it until a fanmade patch was available. It's out for a while now, so I bought the game and finished reading it. It definitely did not disappoint. Case 1 felt like a modern romantic drama, I quite liked it. Rin was definitely a very memorable and fun character. But I can't really add anything else without spoilers. Case 2 was my favorite by far. Not only Olivia has an insane presence and an amazing character, pretty much all of the side characters were great and super fun. I even liked the male lead, Shakespeare here the most. How the characters in the trope became almost like a family by the end and improving, it was truly amazing to see the progress. But besides the story, what truly stole the show was how well Olivia and Shakespeare suited each other. The way they helped developing each other, fixing their weaknesses and bolstering their strengths left a big impression on me. Case 3 was decent, but the only thing I really liked was the friendship between Sumomo, Azuki and Kanna. It kinda felt like a summer adventure full of youth which I liked. Also interesting how it was in the same setting as another VN developed by the same studio, The Future Radio and the Artificial Pigeons. Now for Case 0 . It had some ups and downs, with some unnecessary and very forced drama at some point and without spoilers. There were two things I didn't like. I can't say much without spoilers, but Yonagi having not only one, but two "misfortunes". And one of them was felt like it only needed to happen was to move the plot forward. The second is the ending. It's not exactly a bad ending, but it feels inconclusive. Admittedly, it does fit the title of the game nicely. But it left me wanting more, something beyond this. Perhaps a game in the future will help. For example, the setting in The Future Radio and the Artificial Pigeons actually is canon in this game and now we know what happens after with the state of the world. I can see why a decent amount of people call it a masterpiece. At the very least, this was an amazing read and definitely one of my favorites, even with some of my gripes. The writing is brilliant, how everything just comes together in Case 0 and how Case 1, 2 and 3 connects to Case 0. The female leads were amazing and a huge props to Asakawa Yuu, who voiced all 4 female leads, but had the vocal range to sound different enough to feel like they were different people. Rin is soft spoken, but with a harsh tongue at times, Olivia speaking in a loud, confident and clear voice, like a true theatric star and Sumomo like a cheeky, aloof gal who's honest about the things she likes and dislikes.

Gonna say my experience was positive since I genuinely enjoyed the storytelling, but I got a pretty big gripe to express too. The Good - The setting is probably the biggest masterwork of this novel. The way three separate settings were re-contextualized in the end felt really well-written. - There were times where I found myself emotionally mirroring the main characters, which I don’t normally do. - Music design was on point. Surprised they captured “medieval” (case 02) and “semi-apocalyptic future” (case 03) so easily. The Not As Good But I Think Deserves A Highlight - The epilogues were quite sweet. I have some weird feelings about their existence relative to the initial endings of each case, but sweet nonetheless. The Grievance - The romances of each case have a severe age gap, which isn’t everyone’s thing. Case 1 has the most egregious example, being of a cap of ~20 or so years (even higher in the unchanged version that you have to patch in). Take caution if you don’t have preference for or dislike age gap romance. Overall it’s a nice read, but take caution what you read it for.

For the sake of what this game meant to me, I'll ignore the censorship drama regarding Case 1, but if that bothers you, there is a very easy to find fan translation. This is not only my favorite game of all time, but my favorite story ever told in any medium, and something I would consider to be a life-changing read. A story of star-crossed lovers across time and space, this VN is something I would consider a must-read for any visual novel fan. It may not hit you as hard as it did for me, but if you are someone who enjoys character-centric drama, love stories; especially star crossed lovers, this VN is a no brainer.
