Starts off with ATRI vibes but distinguishes itself after that. Unrequited romance, supernatural mysteries, great voice acting, characters, soundtrack and art. Yes yes yes

This VN is really good, really REALLY loved the ending of the main story. ginka my beloved The extra story, in my opinion, was not the most well written story I have read though. I like the idea, but the execution was lacking.

A nice VN if you had finished ATRI -My Dear Moments- and then wanna play another VN that has similar vibes with much more choices. Ginka is a story rich VN which heavily focusing on romance. It has a quite complex story with some plot twists. There are also a lot of fighting scenes to make the story more engaging. If you liked the Atri VN, you should like this too!

Just finish read this takes 10 hours+ I gotta say ( this still can't beat ATRI ) but it is still good read and unique in it's own way. The plot twist is good tho or maybe like too many twist? Sometimes idk like where are we again? The artwork amazing! The music i must say- it's not really memorable but there's some piece that makes my heart feels.. it fit n time really well. but overall it is good read- i love Ginka. Special mention to Best Cat at supermarket-

Initially, I expected Ginka to provide a similar experience to Atri, one of my favorite visual novels, but the story turned out very different and surprised me in various ways. Ginka, despite having “Love” as the driving force of the story, isn’t romantic-centric like Atri; it’s more of a mystery, intriguing, action type of story with romance as an afterthought. Foreshadows are provided throughout the story that all come together at the end, bringing a satisfactory conclusion. All remaining questions were answered in the after-story which is rather nice despite taking more than half a year since the release day to do so. The CGs are terrific, the OST is good but not remarkable. I wish the writer expressed the romantic aspect of the relationship between the main couple more colorful since the “pureness” of their love was established too early and remained unchanged even when the story ended, to be honest, it was frustrating that the couple didn’t express more affection despite so much hardship they went through together. Overall, Ginka is a truly engaging story that can keep your eyes glued to the screen till the curtain falls. Definitely check it out if you’re a fan of mystery, devoted love, and mythology stories.
