Character design is as you expect from an anime game elaborate (not a disparagement as i do like the look of it), in this case i do especially love the characters styling, not to mention rinne's rather eye catching outfit.
Performance

14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
With settings for 1440p, high FPS caps (120 and unlimited), and PS4 controller support via Steam, Shining Resonance Refrain is a solid PC game.
