This is part two of the game, Kyoto is part one. For anyone confused it's because this was ported to PC from PSVita. I always will love Hakuoki as it being the first otome game I got into when it released NA for PSP. I still own the box set I got. Now, this game has issues, and a lot of them are tech related because of it being ported over and them not caring that much about fixing those issues. Black screens, game crashing ect. Most of them got resolved for me by running in admin and changing the games compatability mode to win 8 or older. If you are interested in getting into otome as a whole, this story is a great starting point, you can even persue the villian. I'm strongly biased because of his voice actor being my fave japanese voice actors ever. I just wish the two games where listed as one and connected because for PC it doesn't make sense to have them seperate, it's just a waste of time, especially for those that buy one not knowing. It's not clear unless you jump into the reviews.

The original Hakuoki was one of the first Otome games I played back on the PSP in 2008 and boy did it ignite something in me. Once I finished playing the OG game I swore to support EVERY single otome game released in the united states and I did. This game holds such a HUGE place in my heart and I have played every version that has been released in English. I'm a sucker for the original boys, especially Heisuke. His and Chizuru's romance is adorable and the one I keep going back to. I wasnt TOO much of a fan of this game being split into the common route and then the romantic route but I get it. This isn't my favorite version but the new romance routes add a freshness to the game. I really need to go back and finish it ^^;

Edo Blossoms is better than Kyoto Winds , but still has some issues that take away from the enjoyment. The issues - While the translation is better in this game, it's still fairly subpar. Sentences are overly interpreted (making them unnecessarily vulgar and misogynistic), some sentence are simply added in English that don't exist in Japanese, there are errors, there are typos... It's good to have a translation of the game, but the quality just isn't there. - The UI was better adapted to a controller, but some actions still needed to be done with the mouse, because not all actions are mapped for PC play. Also the game window still doesn't fit most screens so you need to play in windowed mode. - The audio balance is weirdly weighted against speech, so some characters are hard to hear, even after adjusting settings. - If you don't play the games back to back, you may have forgotten what happened in each route. Splitting Hakuouki in half is definitely a mistake. - The routes' quality vary greatly in this game. In Kyoto Winds there was a lot of common events so most routes had comparable story beats, but in Edo Blossoms there are more differences and some routes just seem rushed or underdevelopped, and it's jarring because there are also very interesting and immersive routes. The good points - The feelings. That has always been Hakuouki 's strong point. In this game the story lends itself well to nostalgia, regrets, bittersweetness... you'll feel the sadness and longing in your soul. Very cathartic, very well done. - The music is great, and an integral part of the experience. Sometimes the text doesn't even need to describe what's happening, you hear the music and you're like "oh this is going to end badly". It helps immerse you in what's happening. - The voice acting is still great with great voice actors. It's always a pleasure to let the characters talk even if you're done reading. - I feel like the art was even more beautiful in this game, with more vibrant colours and cleaner lineart. (Or maybe it just accomodates higher resolutions ?) Unlocking CGs felt extra rewarding. - Since several characters follow different paths in this game, the routes were more varied and focused on different aspects : some more on the history side (best routes in my opinion), some on the supernatural/demons side (some very good surprises here), some on character development (variable quality) or more simply romance. So no matter what you prefer, you will have plenty of what you like, and plenty of variety too. So in conclusion : Hakuouki is an ok game, but a really good story. If you like the Shinsengumi and/or the bakumatsu, definitely go for it, you will get plenty of feelings. (Mostly painful, but real XD)

Play it if you enjoyed Kyoto Winds (the first half of this story that you should buy and play first), but prepare yourself emotionally first if you are sensitive to sad moments. I feel this title is more heart-wrenching than Kyoto Winds.

A masterpiece, that's what I would say in short. If you are wondering whether you should buy this at a full price, I would say go ahead, as considering the big amount of the romanceable characters, and different interesting plot and ending. It is absolutely worth at the full price. Not to mention, the voice acting are great too, they even done it for each and every characters; including those side characters who didn't have a drawing.. Some other or most otome games, will charge you at a ridiculously high price for a short plot, and only the main characters have voice acting while others don't, prolly only shouting and screaming or none at all. This game is a little different than the first game "Kyoto Winds" as in the first game, we need to go through the first 5 chapters of "Kyoto winds" to get different characters or to date the characters that we want by making the correct choices. However, on this second game "Edo Blossoms", we can choose the characters that we want straight away. But, I recommend to choose the character according to your first game ending. Furthermore, from what I've heard from most of my friends, the DLCs are not a necessity, but if you guys want it, then go ahead. Lastly, I hope that Idea Factory will bring more otome games to steam, desperately wishing for all of the diabolik lovers or the rest of the Amnesia games here >/////< ~
