Gonna have to say this is the best VN I have played, and I have been on a bit of a binge.  The story is emotional, doesn't jump the shark so far and focuses on either building your life, and romancing or taking different paths with your decisions in a way that feels much less "on the rails" than many other VNs I've experienced.  If you're looking for a place to begin in your search for a good VN with many interesting females, this is an amazing place to start, with beautiful visuals.  It's a fantastic vision and I certainly hope the author keeps making this kind of content.
