Finally finished up all the routes in Braban. I've never read any other Yuzu game before unless you count Shouyon, so I can't really compare. Anyways not too much to say other than it's a pretty decent moege. Some of the drama I thought was a bit stupid but it only lasts like a couple of days, so it's not a huge deal. MC is not really much of a hetare aside from Tae's route. Actually he's reasonably competent as a 部長 all things considered. My main complaint is that I wish they did more with the music premise. There was a lot of repeated conversational topics (food, 眠い, etc.) which could have easily been substituted with something more musical instead. It wasn't like the writers were totally clueless on the topic. They did correctly note at one point that playing high notes on trumpet (or any brass instrument) is not about blowing harder for example. I guess this is the wrong genre to make this wish, but I kind of wish there was more drama with MC's dad like in Owarinaki. Jun sort of seems to have a slight complex about his dad being a well-known composer, but they don't really do anything with it other than make him hesitant on deciding what piece to play. The routes could have benefited from some more variation as well. The main background events are pretty much the same but just MC goes off and does X with whatever girl. Yuki's had the most unique points about it given that she's 部長 of the rival team. Also, I wish they tried harder to make the final performance more noteworthy. At least a CG at that part was certainly warranted. That felt lazy.

Also, Yuki is the best girl and easily the best route. She's so sweet.
