I just came off a replay of Hakuouki, and was desperate for more interaction with the Shinsegumi. This game caught my eye initially because not only was it on sale, but the art was beautiful and even though I knew it wasn't at all connected with Hakuouki, I decided to give it a shot. Before I get into the review proper, a little note: I did my best not to compare this game with Hakuouki, since the two plots are pretty much night and day, and that's fine. The Shinsegumi are a popular subject for media material, so Hakuouki definitely didn't 'do it first' or anything. That being said, let's start with the negative and end on the positive. Negative: - The available guys all seemed to be in-love with the heroine from the moment they met her. This isn't exactly new for otome games of this nature, but most of them offer some sort of buildup. This one never did, and it was jarring. - The her
The first time I’ve learned about the Shinsengumi was when I played Hakuouki. It’s hard for me to put in words of how much I love that franchise; however I do know that it’s a very loose adaptation of the real Shinsengumi, and other people could get the identities of its members and make more adaptations based on their own insights. I had that in mind when I got this otome game so I will try my best to NOT compare this to Hakuouki or the real people that were part of the Shinsengumi. The MC is the cheesy little airhead that most of readers of these kind of visual novels are used to. She often asks herself if her beloved really likes her and “why does he keeps teasing her”, blablabla. Same old thing. Now, Dogenzaka has a habit of creating maybe the most atrocious love interests ever made for a dating simulator. I’ve seen this on other games from other developers, but the “a*sshole syndro
I thought some time if I could recommend this game or not. Sadly I came to the conclusion to not recommend it. While I like all of the Dogenzaka Games in general, I'm pretty fed up with this one. The artwork is beautiful as always, but it's the only good thing about the game. The music is not bad, but there are some tracks which are rather short and sound kinda strange in their short loops. There are typos and grammar errors as well, but I don't mind these flaws very much. What's so annoying about this game is how it is cencored. Don't get me wrong, there is some xxx-content in the game, and that makes it even more disturbing. While you sometimes stumble over passages like that, the endings are cut short! The best endings depends usually almost identical story pathes as the normal and bad ones, and is then cut short. You get one or two sentences suggesting xxx-content left for your ima
TL;DR: I struggled over whether or not to recommend this one. Ultimately, I'm choosing not to, but please feel free to read my review to see if my concerns about it will bother you. The story has its good points too, so there may be many people who are happy to overlook what I didn't like. --- Overall Impression: My first impression of the game was that it was "otome by boardroom" because the prologue is flat terrible and the characters felt like cardboard cutouts. Considering the mess of many of the routes, I still sort of feel that way. I ended up playing the most upsetting route first, which negatively impacted my enjoyment of the rest of the game. It did end on what (for me) was the "best route", and that softened my feelings towards the game. Ultimately, my feelings are very mixed. Content: There is at least one character (Heisuke) who outright treats the heroine as a sex toy. H
The only thing not cringe-worthy about this otome is the art. The writing is just plain bad...cringe-worthy, even. It made me laugh out loud in places, but not in a good way. The looped music is generic and does little to enhance the mood or quality of the poorly written story. There is no character progression and the MC is a carbon copy of the female protaganists in the developer's other visual novels. In short, do not pay full price for this VN for it is a sub-par otome and not worth the money.
Recommended... maybe. (I say "maybe", because it wasn't utterly horrible, but not anything special either.) The story in the introduction was okay. While I liked the opening for the game (at the beginning of the prologue), the prologue itself wasn't particularly thrilling or exciting. The route plots varied... somewhat. They were mostly focused on relationships. I liked that to some extent, but I felt the situations were cliché and I could guess what was going to happen. The clichéness I could handle, but if I play a game, it should be interesting. If I can all the time guess what happens next, it's not exciting anymore. (Gosh, I sound like Heisuke...) So no particularly adventurous plots and if there were moments like that, they were gone in an instant. I liked the art. The characters were all attractive, the backgrounds didn't stood out to me (which can be good or bad, depending on
