characters 4.5/5 - nice looking, casually speaking, overall pleasant. nothing extraordinary, but very good for the limitations.
plot 4.5/5 - despite being somewhat flat and boring for an established-history, world-dominating plot, the fact that the two characters have a history makes the romance aspect (as subtle and inconsequential as it was) much easier to consume from a realistic point of view.
art 3.5/5 - nice looking character sprite but a mediocre amount of detail/effort in the background/foreground.
Characters 4/5 (I really like them but sadly they all end up being sort of samey in spite of their contrasting initial personalities.)
Plot 4/5 (The unique route events for all 3 characters are so quaint but the ending being almost entirely the same for each route felt unrewarding.)
Art 4/5 (A very nice ms paint look. just looks a bit rushed or lazy in some rare parts.)
art 5/5 (many cgs and sprites for how short it was)
plot 3/5 (zany gimmick plot that took away from the charm of the romance, but it did what it needed to)
characters 3/5 (characters that revolve entirely around the gimmick plot. Not to be taken seriously.)
3.5/5 art (done with love but not always entirely pleasing)
5/5 writing (cheesy, gimmicky, tropey, and yet its all intentional and done so well!)
5/5 characters (representative inclusivity that doesn't feel forced and unrealistic characterization that successfully feels charming rather than annoying)
