This is basically everything I wanted out of Aokana + so much more. Misaki was already fantastic in her route of the base game and this just brings her character to another level. How they handle everything pertaining to the spirit of competition was phenomenal. I don't consume much sports media but this has made me want to because oml it's so good. The cg quality is also a huge step up from the original and there are SO much banger vocal tracks here. And saving the best praise for last the FC matches go fucking insane, they were already great in OG but in here they're on an entirely different level, there was not one FC match here that didn't have me on the edge of my seat.

Even things I didn't care for much in the orignal I found myself adoring here, biggest example being the romance which I thought was cringe in the original, but here? That's some good shit. The SoL segments are also great which is nice considering I didn't care much for the SoL past common route in base game. It may sound like I'm shitting on the base game a LOT here but I still like that shit a lot, it's just that this is on an entirely different level of quality.

We stan Misaki
