Update: I absolutely loved this, what a beautifully written story. The writing style is so soft and pretty, the story unfolds slowly but not too slowly, it feels sombre but not too sombre, and the ending felt almost uplifting despite how much the girls go through. Loved the ending sequence with the three main heroines on the unedited backgrounds, and how it contrasts the contrast between the more whimsical collage backgrounds used earlier. I wonder if that's meant to show the characters have to move on, that their old lives have gone for good?
It felt dense with symbolism and the art direction is gorgeous, every single scene in this VN is so well-framed and beautiful. I liked it a lot, thank you so much for making it!
