VN - Ren'Py - My Bully Is My Lover [Ch.1 Ep.4] [NiiChan]

Review made for Episode 6

(A small warning to anyone writing a review on this site, if you accidentally click outside the rating box, it will close it and delete your entire review with no warning. I am writing most of this twice. Don't do what I do.)

Alrighty. I've never written a review on this site before, so bear with me. I want to start by saying that there's an inherent amount of respect that goes out to anyone with the fortitude and skill to create any sort of game, being able to push through your own potential insecurities as a writer and maintaining a creative vision through to a finished product. No matter what else I say, that is commendable in its own right.

Now that that's out of the way, let's talk about this game in particular and how it has compelled me to write my first ever review (twice). It comes down to two basic aspects: concept and execution.

The concept: The story of an everyman who has been put in a situation where he must now cohabitate with his high-school bully/bullies, confront their past differences, and establish a form of mutual respect that blossoms into love. Absolutely fantastic concept with a lot of room for interpretation, great job. To look at it in most basic terms, it's clear why it would work and be compelling. It's well known that a lot of bullies pick on people due to something going on in their own lives, leading to them feeling the need to exert control over others. Bullying is something that can take many forms depending on the dynamic between the two people, whether it be physical, social, emotional, etc...there's a lot to do here. I could go on, but I'm pretty sure I've laid out enough breadcrumbs for you to be able to form your own trail.

Let's explore execution. What does "My Bully Is My Lover" do with this concept? For starters, we join our MC years after high school. He's now an adult with a very basic job moving through life in a pretty typical way (aside from an incestuous relationship with his sister, but it's a porn game, fuck it, who cares). He's moved past all of the trauma of his high school where he was bullied for being fat and used the trauma as motivation to get in shape and avoid the sort of abuse he suffered from. He's already progressed through an obsessively vengeful stage of planning revenge on his bullies to simply wanting to move on with his life. Fully rehabilitated, a great choice. Suddenly, he finds out that his mother is leaving the house and also renting out the two empty rooms to some tenants who will be arriving soon. Ding dong! It's his bullies, surprise! He (of course) remembers them but it appears as though the bullies do not remember him. Cue an interestingly tense situation where he doesn't quite know how to broach the subject (or if he even should) as he gets to know how they are now. He clearly sees that they're not acting the same as they were back then. Is it because they've changed? Is it because he's not fat and ugly? Time will tell!

Well, it's really not a lot of time and it's quite possibly the least interesting way this could have gone. What was initially a tightly-knit story of a plausibly relatable (though clearly fantastical) situation is somehow blown into this absolutely wild tale involving some illuminati bullcrap, spies, parents manipulating their children for "reasons".... To sum it all up, Bully Prime's mom is behind all of it because she's extremely petty and basically ordered Bully Prime to be incomprehensibly mean. This means that every bully is actually just a pawn, and all of them felt really bad the whole time but they just absolutely had to be bullies because the mom is just that powerful! We quickly learn that one of the "bullies" consensually fucked our MC basically the first time the two of them were alone, another was in love with him since she was old enough to form sentences and Bully Prime was just sad about the whole thing too. Additionally, this entire situation was established with the help of one of one of the bullies contacting MC's mom with the entire plot being set up so that Bully Prime would fall in love with MC and avoid an arranged marriage.

The main issue with this story as a whole is the writer doesn't seem to comprehend that less is more. One entire chapter is dedicated to backstory on one of the "bullies" who the writer wants to heavily imply is autistic without outright declaring it. As much as I tend to like characters like this, we spend a ridiculous amount of time establishing her backstory, her tragic early life and even toss in an attempt to humanize the completely irredeemable main villain of the story. If you're going to hit predictable story beats, rather than focus on telling us the entire story in a way that feels "cinematic", focus on what's necessary to convey without breaking the flow of the actual story. The main way that jumps to mind as to how you'd want to employ a chapter-long flashback in the way the author has is if it's going to reveal a lot of critical information that dramatically transforms the story in some way, making me see characters or past events in a new light. For the chapter in question, it more or less establishes that this character who seemed possibly autistic is absolutely autistic, and there was a tragedy they experienced when growing up. We already knew about how they felt about our MC and seeing them meet Bully Prime doesn't actually effect how the two's relationship is viewed by the reader. There's no reason to go back and retell me information you already did a great job of passing on to me.

Bottom line is this: this story would've done much better if it didn't shoot for the moon. I found myself skipping a good amount of the grand scheme bits of the story and paying attention to the close interpersonal sections where characters interacted with and played off each other. Of course, this sort of thing comes down to what the author wanted to make, and if they wanted to make a story that swaps between a grand stakes high society plot and a couple of young adults head patting and fucking in a house, that's their vision. If it's what keeps them invested in making it, they should make what they want.

As it stands, the primary value in this to me is the solid art and the occasional fuck. It's good enough in the art department that I'll probably keep checking in on it. I could probably go on a bit more, but writing this twice has sucked just about all of the wind out of my sails at the moment. Best of luck.

This is just a great game over all. Even though it isn't done, I feel confident in going ahead a rating it now. The art is great. The lewd scenes are great. The ladies in this are great, with depth of character and each girl feels unique and worth while. Each girl in this could easily beat out the best girl of most other game, which is why I'm glad this is a harem game. It has strong emotional pulls, but never feels manipulative. I may update my review later if anything else comes up but even as it stands it is well worth your time.

Now before we start, I need to make some things clear. I enjoy good plot as any other guy, and I also absolutely don't mind slowburners. If porn game takes time to develop characters and story and then later on it pays off, that's absolutely great and I would never complain about it just because characters don't fuck with each other every five seconds. With that being said, I want to state that reading this VN is just pure pain. This is just bad writing, slog that you have to endure. I can't even point out what's worst: basic ass cliches from "How to write drama for dummies", needles wordiness and characters that don't talk like real people, laughable attempts at squeezing tears, pointless flashbacks that rips apart narrative and makes it even harder to follow the story (Pro tip: if you don't know how to properly use flashbacks in your story - don't), or just general weakness of this whole idea for a story, or the amount of nonsense. I think author should move on from writing porn games to writing pulp fiction for female demography, in this field he (or, I suspect, she, but I can't be sure) will find much greater success, or at least, will be doing what he is best capable of.

All the things I said above makes it even more painful to acknowledge that from a technical point of view this VN at the very least great. I'm a fan of Honey Select-based games and if this is not a peak performance, it's very close to it. Honestly, this is the only reason why I'm still here, at episode 6. Characters themselves looks... korean, like K-POP stars, but I think that was the point and I absolutely don't mind. Everything - textures, models, design, surroundings, camera angles, lightning, I can only applause. Not to mention a lot of included music, although I would call a choice of tracks for some moments... questionable at best, but that problem stems from the same lack of taste that leads to an awful writing, so it's not a technical issue. All of this high quality production wasted on such mediocre story, what a shame!
3 stars, and I still hoping there will be more action in the future.

P.S.
There is a scene, that I think perfectly represents this game. MC banging one of the girls in his room, and then we see other girl in the next room hearing moans through the walls. When she realizes what is going on, we read her thoughts about how she's heartbroken and then then suddenly DRAMATIC pop music starts swell and we get back to the dicking. While MC dick realistically spreads apart vagina (95% of the games on this site don't have animations like this), we continuing to listen this male voice whining something about break up, accompanied by acoustic guitar and piano. Honestly, I couldn't stop myself from laughing out loud.

I'm not going to lie the last two updates brought my interest for this story up so much. Before I was interested but it reminded me a lot of masumane-kun no revenge even though there were some original aspects in there which did pique my interest. However last update being just a stand alone backstory episode but was so interesting it made a character that I had little interest in to one of my favorites. Then with this episode just adding onto it with giving more backstory for another character as well as giving a look into what's going on currently behind the scenes during the present time. (Trying not to outwards spoil) The only thing that sucks about the behind the scenes stuff this episode (6) is the main character isn't a part of it cause the whole premise of it is so intriguing but the characters that are apart of it I haven't built that connection with to be fully invested in their stories quite yet. From a story percpective it makes sense why the MC isn't a part of it but it would've been cool if another game that premise was done with a MC being a part of it. I think some things to note from this episode too is the creator has improved on comedy in the game as well as the dialogue being funner a bit. Also the Eternum cameo in this episode was amazing. If you had played this game previously but only in the earlier updates or haven't at all I think I can safely say this is one of those games that has shown it's going to be a fun ride. I can now fully get behind giving it a 5 star rating. I wish the developer all the luck with future updates and wanted to do this review to let them know they're doing a great job, truly enjoying what they're putting out. Keep it up!

Well written, way more than LCC. I'm enjoying the unfolding mystery in the background. Characters well written and interesting. Bit of a slow burn in places. I'm having a hard time lining up the timelines of the two games of the shared universe, I suggest you don't attempt to.

surprised about how this game getting better and better every ver be released
many beautiful guys and environment, light, story line more interesting, am playing it first chap and now to ep 6 and i can feel the big attempt of dev to improve their game better every updates, good job Niichan, appreciate your work

Played this finally. Waited long enough and not disappointed at all. I liked the character development, each one of them are distinct yet attractive in their own way. Gwen the best girl in here closely followed by Emma. Animations are good too.
It's a drama involving unfortunate girls caught up in the politics of few egomaniacs, did something they shouldn't have and also not by choice, each one of them have their own little battles to fight.
Main character, a perfect persona for the story. He has that forgiving, live and let live kinda personality. I was sceptical of his traits at the start but playing through few episodes i say he's the way he should be, that personality not only shaped his life according to the way he wanted but also need of the hour to those girls who are in dire state, I mean why not, end of the day everyone deserves a second chance.

Short Version: The game is mediocre at best: not good, not bad, but somewhere in the middle, and it's far from memorable

The Good

- The overall graphic is above the average
- A few cute scenes between characters are quite sweet and wholesome

The Mediocre

- Most of the characters' personalities are cliché and not the pleasant kind of cliché, it's like watching an anime who tries to distinguish from the others...only to fail by a narrow margin
- The cheap fan-service like having cameos of characters from games that are far more enjoyable than this one, everytime i saw them i think "I'd rather play those games instead of this boring thing" but the main thing is that they're not relevant to the plot and they're a waste of time on screen.

The Bad

- The prologue makes us believe that MC is someone who actually was bullied and experienced hell, when in episode 6 MC actually admits that it wasn't that bad! (i would pay to be bullied like he did, some initial humiliation and then had sex with a girl, and simply hanging out with them doing something that i consider a chore or a favour between friends).
- How should i say it? The game is carpet-bombed by reveals and plot twists, which would be fine if we had the time to digest them, but instead we start with three bullies basically self-inviting themselves at MC's house, to bloody ninjas, mafia and martial arts in like 2 chapters, and while playing i felt force-fed while i'm already full, a slower pace would have helped me to gradually accept everything.
- The very bad side of the characters: We go from three bullies, presented and introduced them from MC as "irredeemable" (which i think i said it) but somehow every character in this game/series has a sad backstory: "(imitating Oprah's voice)You get a sad backstory! And you get a sad backstory! Everyone get a sad backstory!"; It's a thing, somehow everyone is a victim of someone or had a major trauma that compels them to either do something bad or forcing someone to do the bad thing, and this whole "i've a sad backstory" is used as a way to make the characters somewhat forgivable, not to mention how somehow the planets and stars aligned so that everyone meet in similar circumstances(same goes for LCC) like it's some secret plan made by the Illuminati.

The Conclusion

Keep in mind that i've a sad past of people stealing my candies when i was 5 so if you like the game and hate my opinion, you MUST forgive me. The lack of sugar as a child may have made me too salty.

Jokes aside: The game had potential, but it pushes every storyline too soon and too fast, without allowing the readers to catch a breath, give enough time and the dev may bring in Aliens, or Shu as a trap-romance(which i approve btw, he far more pleasant than most of the girls) or MC joining a black cop from Los Angeles and fighting the Triad(reference to Rush Hour 3 XD). Then we have the clichés, from the overuse of this secret mafia/criminal society, to martial arts, to the classic "The girls loved MC since the second they met him(looking at you Emma)", we have all kinds of cliché, from action-animes, to romance and slice of life animes...if only these clichés were microdosed, we wouldn't have such a boring story filled with boring characters...

The final grade of this game is: The game is barely average plot-wise, and i'm shocked that people call it a masterpiece when actual masterpieces are out there waiting to be played. In the end is the graphic that carries the game, convince Niichan to be just a designer and to work under a good writer, and we'll have a masterpiece soon XD

Episode 6

Ohh... Man this game improved a lot when compared to the start. Ok let's talk about episode 6. In terms of content wise and quality wise this episode is the best. Well look at the change log and compare this episode with others you will understand it. This Episode contains more images. And there is some good music and soundtrack. Also some new characters are introduced in this episode. The new male character ( MC's friend ) introduced is funny, now game contains some humor. My fav episode is Episode 5 well it's about past story of Emma.


Is this game worth playing ?

well the game start like Normal honey select game. I even felt bored, but don't drop the game. But through the next episodes game improves a lot. Past stories of the girls are revealed. Emma and Gwen is my fav. Their back story is the best. Emma's story is emotional and make you cry. There are some Mysterious girls too. They are badass I'm not going to spoil it for you.
only gripe for me was there is not that much humor in the game. But the arrival MC's male friend solved it. Dev has improved a lot. And he is putting a lot of work for this game. Game deserves more attention

PROS

* Beautiful girl models
* They have personalities
* Not bad writing
* Good story plot

This game is totally worth playing. Be warned this game is not a fuck feast. Forgot to add I liked the new girl moon very much.

This VN has some great potential. It's on the slow burn side for most of the girls, so if you're looking for some fast action, this isn't it.

What we have here is a solid looking HS based game where all the girls look great and consistent and believable personalities. The content is SUPER stacked for a few of the girls, which makes it feel somewhat unbalanced. It definitely makes the overall pacing strange, but the writing makes makes it all engaging anyways.

I'm digging the how the MC is a person and has consistent inner thoughts. The issue with the MC is that for someone who's allegedly moved on, he says that a lot. It's not a very convincing line, and feels way too repetitive. Maybe there's a reason for this. He is, thankfully, a genuinely kind person, so watching him become something more would be interesting.

Here's my suggestions going forward: Since the MC is a character, use make him solve problems within a set skill set that he would have, and show what he's learned about moving on. These attributes and limitations would greatly add to the MC's character.

The MC atm is pretty much saving everyone's ass. While it's cute at first, it really undermines the other characters' growth. These girls may be down on their luck and need a hero, but let them become the hero to their own lives. As this happens, show how they can help each other when the MC can't. It'll make them more compelling in the end.

Both of these issues are easy to fix, given the story is technically still very much in it's early stages. There's also this overarching plot that's potentially intriguing too. It adds a sense of danger and explains a lot of what has happened in the past.

Oh! and maybe make a notice before spending another episode solely on one girl. It's not a bad choice, because as most of us have pointed out, ch. 5 is the feels train and a good experience, but it can easily get tiring.

Aside from all that, one can see the effort placed in this game all over the place. The UI is decent and distinct. The gallery is nice. The music choices are spot on. There's a lot going for this game. The foundation is there!

I don't exactly know how each girl is going to fit into MC's life, but I have faith in NiiChan can do it if they keep up the solid work seen so far!

The story and characters are one of the best in adult visual novels, episode 5 especially was phenomenal for me. The art and animations are good too and the choice of music during most scenes is great. Niichan is truly one of the best game developers in this genre.
My favourite girls(as of episode 5) are Emma, Gwen and Sky.

This game is a must try if you like visual novels in this genre.

First of with something good. The Renders, Animations and overall look of the game. I really like it. Kind of unique look. Iam not entirely a Fan of "anime" looks, but this here works, its a little bit between anime lookalike and sort of realistic. I like it. Maybe it would have been slightly better if the bodys of the girls would look more different... to be honest, the boobs and other things are more or less the same, same nipples, same skin color... here and there are some differences (freya or Karla for example) but besides the hair, Sky, Aine, Emma, Lily, Gwen and most other girls have nearly the same body and boobs. Not much to complain about it, doesnt really matter, but maybe you can work on that a little bit. For example, get some girl some tanlines or so. Just a thought.

The Animations are really nice, yeah kinda short and of course a loop, but i like them, they are a real plus to the game. Most of the animations out there are just annoying, but in this case i like them all, i dont talk about the sex-scenes only. The blinking eyes, smoke or the hot coffee steam... little details i really like.

Than the overall sound... most of the time in these kind of games i will turn it off entirely after a minute and just throw some relaxing chill music on. Cause lets just face it... the bakcground music or sounds of about 99% of the games around here are a pain in the ass. Not so here... the music fits most of the time the mood and scenes (its getting better with every chapter i would say...) And some sounds like knocking and so on are ok too. But please please never ever get the idea to add endless moaning sounds to sex scenes, they are really ridiculous as far as i can tell... there are some games out there with these sounds, and really, oh my god they are awfull. unrealistic moaning sound in a loop that doenst fit the scene at all.... what a turn off, so please... jsut dont do that ever

Than the story, it started really dull and very plain and just not interesting... my first impression of the title and overview in this post was confirmed at first, but the overall look kept me going on. But to be honest, it took me nearly a week to go through the first 3 chapters (and i have to say, i have way too much time to play games... really good VNs around here i ruhed thorugh in 1-2 days, read them 12 hours a day or something like that). But at chapter 3 something poked me about the story and the characters. Chapter 4 got me hooked up than, and chapter 5 was just.... wow. You got me now.

Dont know how to discribe this, but i got the feeling the author changed or something like that. But i guess thats not true, cause everything leads toward this development between the MC and the girls in the first place.

But it was kinda well hidden under the dull and plain start of the game under things like the bullying (i was bullied nearly my entire schooltime, and i have to say, nope how the MC is going, and what was going on in his school time, sorry that is not bullying, not even close to that what iam gone thorugh...i got a little bit angry here, cause bullying is nothing that shoudl be downplayed, but nevermind, i dont blame you here) and burger shack setting...

Than you started to uncover some things behind the curtain of the girls... especially emma. And thats where the game is really starting through now. The game is like a Horse in a race that starts slower than every other horse but is increasing the pace constantly. The game gets better and better with every chapter. You have to fight thorugh the first 3 chapters to discover a real gem here.

Keep going like this and iam sure you will get more and more patrons... in me you already got one more for now.



Now the not so good things... Maybe iam alone with this opinion, but its always a little awkward to me if there are so many girls nearly falling instant in love with the MC for just acting nice... but ok its a fantasy. But another thing is, when there are so many girls acting like that... in this game i lost count. Even random encounter on the street goes like that "oh hello, i can sense that you are a really good guy, i already like you, and iam already wet" (to exaggerate a little bit)
and the MC didnt do anything else just than to greet her... that is a little bit too much for me. To late to change that... but building up relationships should be a little bit deeper than that. Even in a fantasy AVN.

Than there are just too many girls. Its much better to focus the relationship build up on some girls and make the others just side flings withoput deep meaning, or just cut them out entirely. You already got sky, Aine, Emma and Gwen for serious possibilities (or a harem route, that i obvious to me) But there are lily, freya and naomi. And of course klara (everybody wants to bang the hot redhead landlady/mom and she is listed offical under the LIs too)

Dont know about the others who play this game, but to me its just to distracting. And i would prefer a more deeper realtionship with a few girls than to go all the way in a hurry with more than 8 at a time. But thats me... iam a romance guy.

Now to something i really dont like in this game, the choices... lets face it, they are not necessary at all. To say it crystal clear, if you have a choice, there are two obvious outcomes EVERYTIME, you either get points for the LIs, or not. So you can break every choice in this game down to this "do you want to get in her panties someday or not?" thats it. But the really bad thing is, if you make the choice to "not chase" the girl, the MC is a heartless ass. There is nothing between. A girl is sitting there crying in distress, and you get the choice to comfort her or to be heartless and just dont do anything. Come on... even if i dont want to get in the panties of a girl i still can be nice? In this game you cant be nice without pursue a realtionship of love. either you be an ass to the girl, or nice, if youre nice the girl will fall instant for you and the MC too, nothing in between. That is very annoying.

And the VN is complete kinetic. There are no choices given to have an influence on the story, the choices you can make are only for lovepoints for the girls, nothing more. I would say, just give us a choice for each girl in the first place where you can decide to be just her friend, or if you want to pursue something more... so we can still be nice to them without getting in her panties. For example, Lily is a nice girl, and i want to be nice to her too, but i dont wat to get something going on with her besides a friendship... but i cant do that, i can either be an asshole, or a nice guy, but the latter we lead to something more.

The other choices are just not necessary at all. "be nice, or be rude" thats all, and to be rude is just... ugh... in this game.

Overall i give 4 stars, there are some things to improve. And the start is not so good and alittle bit tirering... if you fight through the first 3 chapters you will be rewarded with a really good game so far.

and again i underestimated another game.... when i first started it, wasn't really impressed, the render was fine (and it got waaaaaaayyy better), the story was fine (and again,got waaaay better) and i did enjoy it when it came chapter 2 and 3. when it came to 4, i did enjoy it and was curious with what was going to happen


but them, chapter five arrived, and......... lets just say that...... i did not cry for something like this in a while, especially when it comes to visual novel. art is something that makes you feel, and great art is something that overwealm you with feeling, and this game did not disapoint when it comes to this regard. soooo yeah, the only thing that botherd me a little is the body language that is a little bit stiff but it got better with the updates.

keep up the good work

I was reluctant to play this game because of the female bully angle as I honestly have a little guilt from my high school days being part of a kind of mean group of girls. So I was worried the bullying aspect might be unenjoyable for me in this specific context. But, it is the hook that got me to look at the game in the first place.

But, the bullying is a very small angle in terms of actually showing anything (although of course critical for the plot) and being honest, this isn't really my style of game. But I had to leave a review because I just think Chapter 5 was so outstanding in giving me an emotional response. I really don't play porn games much for the porn but rather some cool stories with a dash of sensual/erotic enjoyment with it.

I identify very much with Aine (both in terms of her high school situation/life and even her mother to a small extent -- well not that bad but the tough/take no prisoners type of woman) but a lot of the women seem interesting. I think players that like playing a fairly normal guy (he's definitely not hot, but he's not bad I guess?) with a touch of mystery, eroticism, and dealing with some feelings about the past with women...will likely enjoy it!

Fair amounts of kinkydinky right now, it really focused on story telling. They really pulled a fast one on me, I didn't expect to get a portion of a sex scene immediately during the earliest parts of the story; the idea's very very welcome. The girls are loveable, their stories are interesting, each of them have almost similar likes towards mc, but different roots. Just waiting for the next episode since I'm playing Episode 5 and I want to see what the next episode brings.

"What?!?! Hah...hahaha...hahahahahaha" - Me playing this game after reading the title

This was a joke to play. I would call it mediocre but insulting would fit better. I thought this was a game about overcoming being bullied but this guy is the luckiest "victim" I've ever seen. The worse thing that happened was some 2nd grade teasing. "Oh boohoo they called me names and made me fetch stuff but I actually want to do it"...that's what this boils down to. What soft loser calls that bullying? That's as much bullying as me being a bird. In fact the MC comes off as a weak-willed crybaby who wasn't even forced to do those things but he did it simply because he liked the girl that was "bullying" him.

What makes this even dumber is that 2 of the 3 girls liked him and one had sex with him...excuse me? Apparently he was teased for being overweight but somehow is still a pussy magnet. How can you root for the MC when he was never an underdog? "Fought your way through heaven and hell"...No you didn't. Don't oversell going to the gym and not eating a 5th donut. In fact for a "victim", even being fat, his life was pretty great considering he's a huge dick slightly chubby virgin that gets girls while having zero charisma and pornstar cardio. I like how the dev states that this won't be a revenge game but lets be real...what sort of revenge can you take on someone that called you piggy, one that did nothing to you and another that took your virginity? If anything it would be the most petty shit ever and I would be too embarrassed to play that route.

Pros
- Girls are attractive albeit the generic stock faces you see using these models. They all have the same face as well with only the hairstyle changing so very lazy. Only character that looks different is the mother.

Cons
- Story: Weak attempt of portraying the MC as a victim of bullying when he's actually a pussy magnet simp that created problems for himself.
- Characters: Generic characters with "tragic" backstories you can't really sympathize with. All the girls are damsels with the MC being the only glimmer of hope...bleh
- Choices: Non-existent. Just caters for relationship scores. Only choice that really matters is when you slam the door in their faces and the game ends.

All in all, this is not a story about bullying. Hell this isn't even a story about overcoming adversity. This is a story about a salty loser who didn't get his way but still decided to follow his crush around like a lost dog because she made his dick hard. He wasn't doing anything against his will...he chose to be there. The fact that this entire game would cease to exist if the MC just had a crumb of self-respect and said "no" is hilarious.

I have to say, this story turned out way different from I initially thought it would. There's a pornwha with a similar premise that's a lot goofier than this. MBIML, as I'll call it, is way more wholesome and heartfelt.

As everyone has talked about, Ep. 5 will hit like a truck if you're not anticipating it. It is very singularly focused, so it's different. I wonder if there will be a dedicated episode per girl.

If that's true, I think people are going to be panicking if they have to break any one of the girl's hearts.

Definitely a good read and worth experiencing.

Honestly, the premise didn't really attract me, and I didn't think too much of the title, but the animations and the graphics really caught my attention. As I played through the game however, even though I absolutely loved all of the animations and the renders, the story really got me, and I have become fairly attached to the characters (my favorite girl keep on changing!).

The only problem I have is the preset incest romance. Though I have no problem with having it in a game, and you are given a choice to reject her advances very early on, it just isn't really to my liking that something already happened between you in the past. While there is also the option to change your relationship to "roommates", the way the game is written makes it very obvious that you are siblings. Other than that however, I still think the game is excellent.

Also, 10/10 cried like a little bitch in Chapter 5.

Animation:5/5
Models:5/5
Story:3,5/5
Emy story:∞/5

I am 23 years old and i cried like a baby while playing chapter 5.
If the dev will keep the quality of upcoming chapters then it's a game worth supporting.

One of the best vn we have here. If you are looking for quality and quantity then congrats you came to right place. Surprised with astonishingly less number of reviews for this one. Nice renders, story is unique and well directed. Love the emotional and psychological transformation of mc as the game progressing. Frequent and consistent updates are plus point that seems to be rare these days. And looks like honeyselect and animations both are match made in heaven.
