Harutoki 4 – Final Impression (minimal or no spoilers)

Well, I just finished Harutoki 4 – all characters and sub-characters, and saw all the ending events.  Here’s my list of favourite endings from most to least:

1. Kazahaya – the most developed, and I love guardian romances
2. Ashvin – partly for the ending and partly because I love his character design
3. Oshihito – made me cry dammit
4. Tooya – there was a lot of potential, but he didn’t say much
5. Sazaki – I think Sazaki has the most straightforward romance
6. Nagi – some cool stuff, but I kept wondering – how did he get involved in the first place?
7. Hiiragi – also cool stuff, I wish we found out more of his background
8. Futsuhiko – he was cluelessly cute

6-8 is kind of random. I felt like there was so much more that could have been explored, but I really like how going through all the stories, including the sub-characters’, you pick up bits and pieces of the whole picture.  Going through them all in as short a time as possible is probably not the best way to do it – but once you start, it’s hard to stop Oh ,and for anyone who hasn’t played yet, there are no more anime scenes, maybe they decided it was either anime or 3D. Still mostly beautiful CGs though, although a couple of the final ones have Chihiro looking like an emotionless doll, which is kinda creepy. The guys all look good and that’s what really matters, right??

I will probably post more with spoilers later, but right now I just have to bask in the glow of completion ^_- And then I can finally concentrate on other things, like other games and adding stuff to the blog!
