What players say

Players say the romance is minimal despite being marketed as an otome, with most of the focus on historical events. The art and interface feel dated, and the PC port has bugs, but the voice acting is praised. Many compare it unfavorably to Hakuoki for story and romance, though some enjoy it as a historical fiction piece with a capable, proactive heroine.
