Description: I seriously have no idea. The game was far more text heavy than I had realized and it’s entirely in Japanese. I can only do the Katakana, but there’s just too much Japanese for me to understand what’s going on.
Positives:
- Even without understanding most of the text, I can clearly see that Minerva moves quickly around towns and the overworld. This is a major improvement for cutting down play time by taking some of the filler out.
Negatives:
- I only played the start, but I even I could see the blatant fanservice offered by this game. An early scene has all of the girls sitting around a pool. This scene reeks of something thrown in for no other reason than to draw the characters in their bikinis. It’s kind of like some of those YouTube girls/women that make sure that EVERY one of their videos take place in a pool, and they’re not swimmers or divers. There’s no reason for things like this. If there’s a legitimate reason for a pool scene here, then I apologize. However, I think it’s just fanservice.

Final Opinion: Maybe it gets better. However, my issues with the language and fanservice loom large, so the start of this game is…..well…..bad.
Completion: Just started
Grade: D
