I was ironic here. I haven't played the fandisc, but I have trouble imagining this working out in a good way. But, well. Fandisc. If I'll ever play that thing, then for the redhead. After that route, I feel like that'd be a good idea eventually. She got so damn shafted with her route. Aside of her plot being done in another route as well, just way better.

Finished Daitoshokan. Best moege I've read so far, but still with weaknesses.

The biggest weakness is probably romance. It's the moege typical "one-sided" thing. Protag wants to help out girl x, that's it. It's not a two-way relationship, just one-way. In this game however it's way worse than usual, as you have way better and genuine relationships, so the romance only feels like a third wheel.

Route-wise Shirasaki and Sakuraba were kinda alright. Shirasaki is simply a more fun character outside of her route and Sakuraba.. I didn't really care about.
Senri however was the best route of the game, in my opinion. It even used the shepard idea.. as the only "normal" route. It also built two strong relationships with friends of hers, though the one with Kana ended up being covered more in depth in Kana's route which is second place as far as routes go. Senri and Kana are one hell of a great combination.

The true route then was pretty disappointing. Not only do you another "common" route style story, which is also the worst of them all thanks to creating an extremely forced petty villain (and kinda killing a good character in the process..).
But even ignoring that.. why are there endings for the 4 main heroines? They are all WAY inferior to their main-routes. Short and shallow. I hope they don't continue these in the fandisc, but stay with the main-routes which are waaaaay better in all ways.
Then best girl Kodachi. She.. got the short stick. So fucking much. Because of all the "common" scenes, her "route" was actually just short. The shepard part was not satisfactory covered. Her issues with her feelings were also not really covered and at one point a switch was hit and she did a 180° from "fuck you, go away" to "take me! *smile smile*". Yeah, she was all messed up and confused, but how to do this better showed Kana's route in the very same game. It was just rushed, it felt like several steps were skipped.
Apart of that, if you wanna play all of it, prepare for tons of repeated content.. which is the worst if you ask me.


Still, even with those problems it had some genuinely great characters, a bunch of good humor, an awesome cat and is generally a lot of fun with even good charage moments (the relationship between Senri and Kana was especially great in my opinion). The true route was disappointing for me, but.. well. The curse of best girls.
