First Impressions: Olympia Soiree
Going into the game...
I just think it looks pretty...it was time for @howlsmovingapartmentcomplex to pick another game and this was it! I really like the looks of the characters and the world.
Top LI picks: Yosuga, Akaza/Kuroba, Riku, Himuka
Finishing the game...
Let me preface this by saying: This game wasn't supposed to take this long to finish! Geez! Sadly my anxiety got in the way for the last few routes and I had to take longer breaks.
Alright, right out of the gate, I already hate Riku! π Let's see if his route changes anything...Damn did his route change sooo much! LOL. What a fucking turn around for this guy that I wanted to murder and by the end of his route I was teary eyed and cheering them on??? I usually don't like tsundere characters, either!
I've really been enjoying Tokisada's route so far even though he's a precious baby bean. I really loved his route! I wasn't expecting to like him that much, honestly, but finally getting his backstory and just the way him and MC interact. I'm here for it.
Yosuga's route *sobs*. HOLY SHIT! I picked him as the fave and unless Akaza's end surprises me, I picked correctly! LOL. His story was sooooo good, and the fact that he's been in "love" with MC since they were kids *sobs*. (Also catch me out here faving the guy that's got a death wish π )
OMFG, Kuroba's route π‘ I am sooo pissed with the, what I feel like, was forced drama! This poor man! *sobs* Trying to pretend he doesn't have trauma/bothered about being part of the black class. And MC π‘. I don't wanna get into a lot of spoilers, but the way she acted was just....WHY????? It was uncalled for! And the fact that she wouldn't even admit to liking him when he asked because....reasons?! And that this is the *only* route where apparently she wanted to make absolute certain about her hair changing color before telling him π. Like, it just really felt like they went out their way to put as much drama in this route as possible. Other than that, I really did love Kuroba as a character. This man needs all the hugs, honestly and he's such a sweetie. (But also, hot damn one of his bad ends *woof*)
Himuka, yeeeaaahhh, I pretty much already figured out the twist for his route since the beginning of the game. haha. I'm still not really sure how I feel about his route. It was cute and not horrible, but IDK how much I really liked it mainly because of the way it ended -_-
Alright, Akaza's route hasn't been bad, honestly. I really like that they're doing a reverse of the fated? That they aren't supposed to be together! I actually *gasp* LIKED his route in the end?! haha. It was a really good route and I loved FINALLY getting that Douma content π Sooooo goooood! But also I just loved how smitten and down Akaza was for MC π First "fated" route in a long time (was the last one Ukyo from Amnesia...?) that I truly enjoyed and would def replay. Also that bad end with Tsukuyomi...Ooops π
This game had a lot of good bad ends, I'll give it that. I feel like it's up there with Birushana π with how many of them I enjoyed and yet cringed at. I also enjoyed most of the character and side characters! I kinda wish some of them were more fleshed out, but eh. I got the Douma and Kanan and Kaina content I wanted, so I'm good.
I would def replay this game! Even though it did set of my anxiety at times...But the characters were great and the art was so pretty!
Favorite Moment(s):
MC not taking/putting up with shit from the guys XD With Riku it was how she couldn't wait to be with him. Tokisada I liked how when he refused to undress (because his clothes were wet) she just jumped him and undressed him herself.
Yosuga's entire route!!!! ππ
Tokisada's bad end with Kaina and Kanan π±(I love me a fucked up bad end and this was...π« )
Kuroba's best route ending with him getting to threaten and punch out Nagusa! ππ What a treat!
Akaza being all pouty and jealous in that after story where MC is baking the cake for Douma π Just feed that man a piece of your cake!
Top LI picks: Yosuga, Tokisada/Akaza/Kuroba/Riku
