la vn más floja que he leido de Key hasta el momento... en parte entiendo como puede ser esto una obra clásica, pero por otra parte para mí no tenía nada que me motivara realmente a leerla más allá de no dejarla a medias. ninguna de las heroinas me intereso, sus historias si bien eran interesantes, sentí que se quedaron muy cortas o no me lo podía tomar en serio por lo absurdas y pobres que eran los conflictos

aunque si me gusto que el MC tuviese voz y personalidad, el problema es el mismo de siempre con Key y es que sus MC son prácticamente el mismo personaje con la misma personalidad...

The opening song for this is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful songs ever. Just listen to it.

I so, so badly wanted to like this. I really liked Little Busters, Kanon, Rewrite and Clannad, so I was excited to read this. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed with the characters, writing, structure and just how boring and repetitive it was. The final route has some very creative ideas, but it's not enough to carry it for me.

I wanted to read this as I loved the anime, I love Key works in general and heard from fans that this was better. But it looks like it's probably just that the peaks are better because the rest is very boring and not engaging. You can tell it's the start of Key as it has elements of what they become, but it doesn't hold up today.
Kano route: 5/10
Minagi route: 5.5/10
Dropped during Misuzu

This is so boring and I don't care about any of the characters and it feels so badly written ... Also I don't like how the story is structured but idk

painfully beautiful, hopeful and melancholic.
