Overall Grade: 100% would recommend!
As my name states, *clap clap* H! Review! (WITH SPOILERS) I haven't completed the novel yet; however, I had a feeling that I should write a post here.
There's only 3 criteria to analyze: Storyline, artwork, and Character Development.
Storyline: 9/10
- As I have not finished the novel yet, these are my first impressions. It's elusive and mysterious. Right at the start of the novel, you're wondering, "Wha- What's the secret behind this beautiful catgirl?" Also, there are not many mysteries and questions at the beginning, which is perfect because if there were too many, many viewers would lose interest.
- It is also consistent. Madeline said, "She's not supposed to be a maid" in the beach chapter. It stays with the storyline and gives the characters depth as most developers might've forgotten that fact sooner than later.
- Overall, I think the storyline is good. It has good mysterious which draw in the viewer and being aware of not having too much to push the viewer away.
Artwork: 10/10
- There's not much to say about this portion. Mainly because art is subjective and also this art already looks amazing.
Character Development: 8.5/10
- Here's where I'm a bit iffy. I understand this is a harem visual novel and it can't be a harem without more than 3-4 waifus. However, introducing Miyu seemed really forced as she suddenly just appeared.
- I can understand Madeline because there's lore with her and Cynthia. So, introducing her at the workplace with hints here and there (the market) was a perfect transition.
- Cynthia's character was amazing. We clearly saw development in her maid skills and with the choices I made, Cynthia, also tries out different "ways" to please the MC. (Remember, time fast-forwards in this visual novel) We also see that Cynthia is trying her best to be alone with the MC. Before, she would not have done that as her mindset is fixated on being a maid and following orders ... In other words, I appreciate this character devlopment.
- Overall, introducing Miyu seemed forced (but! another waifu, so I won't complain). I still know nothing about Madeline. And Cynthia has had the most development (Mainly because she's got the most screen time)
Thank you for reading my review on UncleArtie's visual novel, "My Catgirl Maid Thinks She Runs the Place!" If I only had one word to describe this visual novel: Amazing.
