Soundtracks, character designs, voice acting(especially) and the animations are really good and seem fully drawn!

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The voice acting is well done, the art style isn't the worst I've seen, the music is the kind of "on the town" chill vibe you would expect in a game where the bulk of the (non-sex) gameplay is wandering around and seeing the sights, and I do admit that the very sarcastic military march played on a recorder when the recruiter appears, and the man on the radio going "scoobity doo-♥♥♥" in place of saying actual words did get a brief chuckle out of me.
