Hello, I'm ugly-crying at the end, as these sexless anime friends will never meet again - but gosh, I hope they get to meet again.

A game that proves, wholly and absolutely, that if you can figure out an evocative style and use the graphical mechanics of the hardward to lift up that style - that beats raw horsepower every time. This game looks better than anything I played on the PS5 this year.

And a story! a good story! A story I haven't exactly heard before, but knew the rhythm, which is a sweet spot for anime narratives. Enough to make it unique, but without breaking the whole format, in some post-modern nothing-matters fuck-and-kill-god way. No, it's earnest.
