I wasn't going to log this separately at first but I decided to solely so I could review it. Honestly, what's really impressive about this route is how it's the perfect DLC. It's separate enough from the main story that it doesn't feel like you're paying for something that should have already been included while still offering a plausible alternative way the original story could have played out. I like how this DLC (the first of three planned ones) sets up a new story canon and rules while still aligned with Love Spell's themes. Minor spoilers ahead but I really enjoyed the appearances from the other LIs in this route — this route managed to have them appear and reference Luna's unique dynamics with each LI without it feeling like they were overtaking Aslan in his own route, which is hard to pull off! Great Gretuski did an amazing job with the pacing and tone of this route. The only reason I'm not rating it higher is I didn't enjoy some of the cultural depictions in this route. I understand what they were trying to reference but as a person of color who was already borderline on the fence about Marcello's portrayal in the previous game, this one really went over the line. Regardless, I am very impressed at how perfectly this route functions as a starting DLC so I fell compelled to write about it — definitely get it if you enjoyed the original, as the studio has only grown more capable and polished since their debut.
