Another game from Winged Cloud has appeared. That's right. This is the 17th. If they keep it this way, eventually there will be as many series as vegetarian varieties... maybe already happened?

If you are new to the Sakura series, I think you are definitely attracted to the Almost-Clickbait title. Oww, a Sadist with Yuri Theme? Isn't it attractive and promising? Well, whether you've played any Sakura VN, or you've played it for the first time, I can assure you that this is not a recommended VN.

Let's start with our heroin. the main character you see after you start playing the game is almost the same as the main character in their previous one. Same laziness, same immatureness. [i.imgur.com] In other words, if you've played their very previous title, you can hardly feel fresh from the main character.

Even in this obvious SSDD(Same Sprites - Different Dyes), Someone could think of it like this: "Hey, the lazy protagonist is a very common cliché on VN!" Yeah, how nice it would have been if only one of the main characters brought the setting of the previous one. Less than five minutes later, you can see that the main character's childhood friend is the same. [i.imgur.com] -anathema to her own full name, a nagging remark about a lazy protagonist, And Lady Tsundere's "As If" speech. Typical.

Maybe you don't think it's too bad because you've never played a previous one I'm referring to. Unless writing does not interfere with you, it will. [imgur.com] The conversations in the game are not very impressive, nor do they express the character's personality. Let me give you a few examples, A smart childhood friend who nags the main character uses double negatives and a professor at a university uses a double modal in this VN. Totally proper grammar. Thx! Stupid, lazy characters and smart characters used a similar level of vocabulary all the time, and as a result, it was hard to concentrate on the characters. Unfortunately, the writer seemed only interested in writing silly humor situations [i.imgur.com] and illogical ecchi developments.

- Oh, and... Nice Neptunia R ipoff eference.

Now let's set the track somewhere else. You may see the art of this game on the store page and think it worked out pretty well. It's true. But unfortunately, it's the ONLY one. While other VN developers such as the Sekai Project maximize their advantages with Live2D and various visual effects, this only has a well-drawn CG. Fixed CGs and sprites are actually not common in 2019. So remember this if you are new to this series.

Let me tell you a little bit about the quality of this series that I was disappointed with. Actually the background animation was first seen in the previous Sakura Cupid, (In fact, it was the second, But Winged Cloud firmly believes it's the first attempt, so let me introduce it as the first.) It was simply clouds or certain objects moving, but at least it felt like they were putting more effort into the series, and the response at Patreon was good. But, meh. In this work, only the main menu has a moving background. This is one of the reasons why I think their efforts in the series are getting smaller and smaller.

Also not Voiced. Sorry ^^~ (Apparently, there's a guideline that they have to attach "^^~" when mentioning about voice.)

You think It's tolerable because it's obvious it's going to cost a lot to hire a voice? Don't be surprised. There is no SFX in this Visual Novel. Even not a single one. It's true that SFX, voice, and visual effects are not mandatory for VN. However, they play an important role in improving the quality of the work and increasing the player's concentration and interest. So can this VN overcome their absence only by the quality of writing? I guess I've already told you what that would be like.


And what I'm going to introduce you now may not be relevant to the game's own content, so if you don't want it, you can skip it. It is completely permitted by Valve to write a review about business practices. So let's take a moment here.

The game's developer Winged Cloud is involved in a number of suspicions. Looks like a bait just for hits? I don't think it's a good judgment to put that down. [i.imgur.com] If you find something that interests you, please look at both videos and judge. The correction of errors in the first video is also in the second video.



So here's my total summary.

-If you are interested in the art of this VN, there is no advantage in this VN to support it.
-If you remember the distant past work of Winged Cloud and expect to be better or at least as good as that, NOT RECOMMENDED.
-If you expect quality from this game, NOT RECOMMENDED.
-If you don't want to support company with shady business practices, avoid this whole series.
-If you against the Valve's #WaifuHolocaust [i.imgur.com] and would like to leave a positive review for raising your voice ^^~, Winged Cloud is REALLY NOT suitable company for that.
