Pure and Depressing. But I can't force myself to give it less than 5 stars. The writing is so descriptive and the characters, while in an unrealistic scenario, are written in a realistic way. I only wish that it didn't have to end this way.
I find it a good thing that "Dahlia" is a kinetic novel of only about three hours in length. It would have been unbearable if it were any longer. As it was, the game is a disappointing effort with a halfway interesting premise, but probably the worst lead in VN history... and I did play "Chaos;Head". Try it at the peril of your own sanity, but I suggest imbibing a huge amount of alcohol before proceeding... It's safer that way.
