Sakura Wars is a great game. I love the whole concept of it, which is a mixture of a Visual Novel and a Strategy RPG. In addition to that, I also really loved the setting of the game, which is set in the 1920s.
Though the Strategy RPG segments are overall relatively simple, I think that they work really well for the game, and I honestly don't think it would've even necessarily needed a more deep and complex system for these segments. I at least still had decent fun with them, and in my opinion, they are quite enjoyable.
But what I really loved about the game were definitely all the Anime and Visual Novel parts. I totally like how the game is structured and divided into 10 episodes. With that, the opening and preview cutscenes, and the end of an Episode for the next Episode, it really feels like a playable Anime, which I again really like. Also, the pacing of the game is excellent.
Regarding the characters, I liked the whole cast, with Sakura and Sumire probably being my favorite characters.
So overall, I think Sakura Wars is a fantastic game, and I'm really glad that such a good English Fan Translation for it exists, with which I was able to play it in the first place.
