Holy fuck, this is crazy good. I'm more for cute hard stories ala Scrub Diving but this fucking nails what it's reaching for. The art style is grade A, a few oddities in the ankles but otherwise spectacular (and even then it's barely noticeable as you get used to the style), it's a great mix of realism and caricature, all the characters are sexy and good looking. One note that really sells them feeling more real is that they actually change clothing, seemingly such a small thing but it adds so much even so since so few games (at least that I play) have characters change clothes. The audio was... jarring? It was strange to have menu music but nothing in the way of audio period during the actual vn; that's no minus, just odd. The characters are so well written, I relate so hard to Clem, being an SM degen lesbian (not so much on the penetration thing but still), and Shizue feels like such a real character with her conflictions and feelings through and through. The two of them are adorable together and while I want to see more safe SM with these two, the ending is really well placed; it could do with a tad more graduality or epilogue sorta thing but still magnificent. I have to admit that I had a horrified look on my face when that one crucial near-end scene happened but it's such a good moment and I love its conclusion (even if it was scary in the moment). Only gripe (a minor one but still) is the random het scene with Vanessa; it's not bad I don't think, honestly I rapidly clicked through it because... I just don't like that stuff, it adds to her character but she's hardly utilized later on, just forgotten. 

All in all absolutely amazing and one I really like; if more lesbian SM stuff is made by this author, I'll definitely read it! And even if the author goes on to het or elsewise, this quality is great and will shine no matter the subject matter. Serious recommendation from me! I'm putting this one on my favourites list for sure. Thank you Gaerax for making this amazing experience! Here's to your work in the future! Cheers!
