March 2025
I love the characters so much that I just can't give this a bad review but it doesn't feel like I'm playing a game, more like reading a book there's barely any choice at all like, in 7.5hours I've had a grand total of 5 choices

Yes......I would be the last person you would expect to play a game like this. But in all honesty i love a good story with different paths and well designed characters. I also love Romance Stories and anime. This game is great. I have never really played a visual novel before but its been really interesting. I will definitely play more games in the future. At the time of this review, Ive only played through one path, But once i play more of the game ill change my review.

It's been quite a few months since I played through this and I can safely say it's had a lasting impact on me, I cannot recommend this VN enough. Even if Yuri or even romance in general isn't your thing, I REALLY recommend giving this a shot, it's a wonderful, genuinely heartfelt story about pursuing your own happiness, no matter where life takes you. If the story itself weren't enough, the voice work REALLY drives it home. A certain scene in particular had some of the most impressive VO I think I've heard in a long time, and had me reading through my tears. This has easily become one of my favorite stories, and I think of it fondly very often. On days when things get tough or difficult, stories like this live up to their namesake and remind you, to Please Be Happy.

This yuri visual novel is a masterpiece. It looks and sounds amazing, but the story telling and character development is just as impressive. It takes place in a fascinating urban fantasy world that you're going to want to see more of, and the character arcs for the MC and the two love interests are masterfully crafted. Even the three side stories are really good!

Basically everything about this visual novel is beautiful: the characters, the backgrounds, the voice acting, the music... It started a bit slow for my tastes, but good lord chapter 3 hit hard Also, I liked Juliet more but I thought Aspen's route was better God I love Miho (and Eunbi)
