Memories Off 2nd

the writing is generally quite good, if at times over-indulgent. the main character is a bit of a clown at times, but he is much better than the freak main character from memories off 1, so i'll take it. the other characters are solid for the most part, the girls in particular are generally well developed and interesting in their own ways, similarly, each character's story is unique (in the important ways, at least). as with all visual novels some routes are better than others, but that is always subjective. i think if you are looking for an old school visual novel for practicing japanese, you really cant do much better than this. the vocabulary is at a cool intermediate level and maintains a conversational feel so it never feels unapproachable.
