GINKA STORY The story is great. It gives you enough roller coaster rides to enjoy the story itself due to how bittersweet the story is at some point until the end. Although the story is kinda off in some part, which makes the story less. The first part of the story is actually so cute it is unbearable, some kind of slice of life romance-comedy, and then the next part it added action into the genre, making it great for me personally. Although some might not be able to bear the difference, it is still a charm to the game. The story is not exactly too long, but going into the real plot might be too much for some people. CHARACTERS I love the characters. The dynamics between each character is enjoyable and somewhat well written. Small Ginka is Cute, Adult Ginka is a beauty and cute, and all characters are likeable. I love how well written the teacher, Araragi is, especially after reading through the stories. Also, Ginka's VA is overwhelmingly great, to the point i can collect all Ginka's "HMPH" sound effects and play the first part of twinkle twinkle little star. SOUNDTRACKS The soundtracks are well composed. When the tense music plays, it really intensifies the high tension scene. The same could be said during emotional scene. Yume no Ukihashi (Ending) is one of my favourite song, but the title theme, Cocoon of dreams, are more memorable. VISUALS The CGs are well-made and straight beautiful. The background art is enough to be made as a great wallpaper. The SD art is also cute. Rating: 7/10 Thoughts: Although Ginka is a great work and has the charm of its own, it falls short compared to ATRI -My Dear Moments-. Overall, great one.
GINKA Recommended Length: Short (5-10 hours) Number of Routes: 1 (in 3 parts) Choices: Yes Failure Possible: Yes Character Rating: Good Story Progression: Good Music Rating: Decent Achievement Difficulty: 0 Additional Thoughts: Overall pretty good, it strikes a good balance between its themes and its mood without any of it feeling out of place.
