2023-11-15	Ro*****	This is honestly a masterpiece. I've never read a vn so well made as this one. It's quirky, wholesome, and really well written and illustrated. I found this by chance and had it wishlist for a long time but now that I finished my first go through i can say wholeheartedly this is my favorite vn
