Himawari no Kyoukai to Nagai Natsuyasumi

released on Mar 29, 2013

Yousuke returned to his hometown of Oboshiro-mura after 8 years in Tokyo and Osaka. He had received a letter from Father Arakawa, who had raised him up as a child, telling him that the Oboshiro church will be closing and merged with a larger church in a neighbouring town, and inviting him back for one last summer together. He reunited with his childhood friends Yomi, Daiya and Ruka, and also met a little girl named Hina who reminded him of himself when he was a child. This is the beginning of a cheerful and refreshing, yet sometimes painful, summer tale. An updated release titled Himawari no Kyoukai to Nagai Natsuyasumi -extra vacation- was released 7 months after the initial PC release. It includes new event CGs as well as a new route for Tsukiko.

Didn't really buy into the friend group's dynamics but the storytelling of the routes made up for it. Yomi's especially is a treat for scaji fans. And Hina's kinda resonated with me. I'll probably read Ruka's later this month.

Mostly worth it to see how SCA-DI handles just one out of four heroines in an eroge title. The route he wrote for, Yomi, is amazing in how it single-handedly gives depth to the structure and setting of Himanatsu. Yosuke's decisions, whether to enter Yomi's route or out of it, become much more meaningful once you understand Yomi's character. Yomi's contribution to the story is a very cool demonstration of SCA-DI's talents as a writer, although it's a bit hard to sit through this game on its own otherwise. I feel if you've ever wondered why the writer made the play Cyrano de Bergerac as relevant as it was to Subahibi (which is actually not a whole not, all things considered), give this a go.

also daiya's mom is like super hot, god
