I. FINALLY. DID. IT.

3 months of not finishing a proper game and I'm finally out of that rut so now I can talk about how this game genuinely surprassed all my expectations while also still having the Kodaka-isms I expected (mishandled stuff such as Servan's... honestly kinda racist design choices and stuff like that, though thats definitely the worst thing here and it isnt as bad as i dreaded)

With exception to Chapter 0 (yes I still hate it), I genuinely don't think this game has a bad case in it. And part of that is due to the characters.

I think this main case is the best main cast Kodaka has put together. I love Yuma's development, I love Shinigami's insanity, I love Halara in general, I kinda just tolerate Desuhiko, Fubuki reminds me a lot of Sonia and I can't wait to have to deal with another wave of hate like Sonia gets every time she's brought up because I love them both, and finally Vivia is my baby boy and I want nothing bad to happen to him. Oh and Wendy is great too, and I am fully on the "Give her a sequel" train.

NOTHING HOWEVER MATCHES MY LOVE FOR MAKOTO

I WONT EVEN GO INTO DETAIL

BEST. CHARACTER.

And also honestly the best character Kodaka has ever written.
