Short answer: yes.
Personally, it is one of my favorite games on this site. It may even be recommended to play Sicae first (the story is linked), although it's possible to play this one first without worries.
If you want a more uplifting experience, go for this one. If you prefer more darker theme, go Sicae first. Personally, I prefer MBIML, but I like both.
Both have an outstanding writing quality, the girls are cute and the story flows well. There also aren't relevant plot-holes that I recall of. Also, I like the dev's down to earth personality (one of my favorites on this website, along with Jestur, Caribdis and RogueOne), and it's very comunicative with his fans.
For sure I recommend playing both MBIML and Sicae without spoilers, although I recommend
having the pdf ready (
STILL HAS SPOILERS!), because the amount of characters is immense, and sometimes I got lost with one or other less important character. And finally, of course the wallet is yours, but if you like the game and have possibility I deeply encourage to support the dev.
Have fun with the game and feel free to ask questions, but I recommend you again to be aware of the spoilers. Some of my favorite games shine with action, others with scenes, others with being unique... but even if this game has several good points, in my opinion the writing quality is by far the strongest asset.
Finally to your final answer about the plot... it's hard to explain without being spoiled. Hence why I recommend you playing Sicae first, it does a better job explaining the basis of it imo, since the timeline is before MBIML.
