Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
A rare case when the story turned out to be so much better than I expected (^^)b Before buying it I saw some 'revealing' screenshots, so I thought I'd get some shallow lighthearted fun but the plot is surprisingly captivating & deep enough.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Purple Software’s artistry is on full display—backgrounds are richly detailed, lighting is purposeful, and character sprites are expressive, distinct, and aesthetically polished.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The game has a fairly unique art style with thicker strokes, similar to what would be a painting, the quality of the drawings is quite good and with enough detail in the backgrounds and characters but certainly not the best work that Purple Software has in its repertoire, as for the sound is simply wonderful, The music that counts with fits perfectly with the situations in which it is presented and also has voice acting for all characters (except the MC) and as is usually in Japanese productions these voices are made by professionals with intonation and expressions presented impeccably.
