Too many quick bar buttons

Holy heck, all we need is a save, load, and config, basically.

This game has the buttons running a mile across the bottom of the screen. Ten buttons. Ten of them. It gives me anxiety with how clustered it is down there.

Dislike text speed

It’s such a weird con to place on the list, but if I don’t have the text speed maxed out on high, the words show up one after another. And it’s like…I don’t know. I read it like someone is enunciating the words one after another with pauses between the words.

The text being written on the screen isn’t smooth.

It’s like watching a TikTok video where the text pops up when a word is said.

Just trust I know what I like and dislike and I dislike how the text writes itself on screen. I’m not crazy.

Men are not as sexy as Kokoro

Oh man, when I saw Junya on screen, I winced. I don’t know what he’s supposed to be; I feel like calling him a cockroach would be an insult to whatever insect he represents, but…he’s definitely not on the level of Kokoro from the first game.

And then Kaito showed up and I remembered this is a romance game and…is it too late to change schools?

They couldn’t make either one of them hot? Like Masato from the first game? He was scary as hell, but still, he was a better option than these two freaks, hello?

Creepy peeled potato-man still works here

He freaks me out every time I see him.

How are the students not horrified? How is the seemingly only human in the school not creeped out by looking at him? Are there other classmates or teachers that are even more horrifying to look at?

Don’t say Kaito.

I might be inclined to agree.

Extra mouse-click after scene change

The first couple of times this happened I thought the game glitched out and became stuck on a black screen, but after the intro song, and even after some scene changes, it’s a black screen until you click again to progress to the next one.

I’ve no idea why it doesn’t just progress forward.

Maybe it’s their way of saying, “Are you still playing?” and the next mouse click is essentially us choosing yes.

School does nothing against gangs

I understand that the school doesn’t want the fact that there are two gangs dividing the students of the school and fights break out to ruin their reputation, but…parents know about them. Our friend stated that her mom knows about the gangs, I’m pretty sure.

What’s to stop a parent from complaining about this?

Why aren’t they?

It’s not even the fact that there are two gangs accumulating students to their side, what I think is crazy is that one of the gangs has the entire third floor to themselves, and the other gang has the roof.

The school has three floors and a roof, and they’ve literally given these gangs their own space and don’t touch these floors because of it. They’re actually catering to these two sides instead of trying to disband them somehow.

I think the gang members don’t even attend classes, which is insane, because there’s a hundred members in either gang. What are the teachers even being paid for if they aren’t even teaching half the students anything?

Animated intro scene

Sure, it pulls images from the game that you’re about to play, but it adds a bit of hype to advancing forward. It’s just…you can’t skip through it. Still, I kind of appreciate when games add a bit of an intro scene. It’s more, engaging, you could say.

Fish can live outside of water

Which is a good thing, otherwise our friend wouldn’t have lasted very long in this state.

Animals are evolving.

Voice acting

And unlike the sister’s shrill voice in the first game, the only one I’m not a fan of in this game would be the teacher’s, but I think with him, it’s the whole package I have an aversion to.

You’ll understand when you see him.

But yes, every character has a Japanese voice actor, except for you, of course.

Artistic scenes

There are important moments within the game, let’s say, that give you a more enhanced experience with the artwork, and I don’t care if Junya is shirtless and has a nice body for what he is, I’m still not going to say he’s hot, like I might’ve said with the grasshopper girl in the first game.

A cockroach is a cockroach no matter how you dress him.

Or undress him, as the case may be.

Intense fight scenes

We’re not talking about just throwing punches and reading the lines as they go about their thing. These fights go all-in (while excluding their ultimate forms, because yes, they do have crazy forms that they don’t turn into unless they’re feeling dejected), with more focused hand-drawn scenes and battle music.

I actually really liked the action it all portrayed.
