Decent VN game with decent replay value. Better than I was expecting and had some fun. Also had a decent soundtrack. Buy during a sale to spend less money.

The storyline is a bit short for my tastes but I did enjoy playing. I recommend giving it a go but don't expect too much character development or depth as it was a bit too short. It was definitely enjoyable and had some fun moments.

This game is interesting. To start with, it posits that the Shogunate continued into the modern era, thus the Meiji reforms never happened, and Japan did not open itself to the west... and somehow managed not to be made a colony of one of the European powers. In the 21st century a reform was put into place opening the ranks of the Justicars to the Black Clan, a family of samurai who were taught... less than honorable means of combat (in other words, ninjutsu). Asumi is a Black Clan-trained warrior who has been inducted into the Justicars and is in a place she is unsure of: the open. Worse there is a conspiracy afoot by a group called the Orochi, who wish to return the Emperor to prominence. And one of the cells seems to be based at this very academy. In the game, there are many paths. Several end badly, with your death, or the death of someone innocent (perhaps both). But choose correctly and you can end up falling in love and continuing onwards with them at your side. (The two relationships with women would likely be overlooked as not dangerous, and as for the ones with men... well, you become a hero, so any children would be blessed, right?)

This VN was quite short in my opinion, but I liked. I think this is the first work from these developers that I actually enjoyed. The concept was interesting, but the writing and character development were… Meh. The art style was decent, BG was good, BGM was good too. I recommend getting this game on a good sale and giving a try. I wish that Dharker Studio would make more VNs like this one. 5/10.

You play a high school girl who moonlights as an assassin and plays detective. So far all I have discovered is that every single person in this highschool wants to get in your pants. The art is good and there are lots of options, my only wish is for a way to hide the text box... edit: apparently you just hit the middle mouse button, and I am a noob. Also there are many endings based on your decision and some great replay value to switch up which classes you take and such.
