An incredible-- no, unforgettable experience for me. The story and characters are amazing... but do not play the PlayStation Portable version.
A horribly crippled UI in basically every way, a broken battle system basically warped into working as a more "typical" RPG, and the pathetic difficulty makes this game... frankly, the gameplay is not fun at all.
Play the PlayStation version, with a fan translation. You will get a beautiful, tragic and engaging story alongside actually tolerable gameplay (on PSP, I hadn't even needed to use the Velvet Room at all, that's how bad it gets).
