Dropped quite a ways into Ichijo's route. Just found it pretty dull, unfortunately. I liked Kageaki but couldn't really bring myself to care about anyone else since the game conditioned me to expect they were just going to be raped and/or murdered in an hour or two anyways and the resulting shock value tapered off very very quickly. The dialogue could be entertaining but walked a very thin line between funny and needlessly long-winded, and while the fights have solid presentation I thought the exposition was unexciting and the constant air-jousting was repetitive. On the bright side I liked the character and mech designs and there were some fun moments like Kageaki endearingly sharing his enthusiasm for racing. I'm sure it gets better in the final route to some extent like a lot of other VNs but since I'm barely getting any value out of it as-is, I'd rather cut my losses and bail out.
