This was so well done! I really loved the story, and the characters were great. It really felt like the first episode of an anime, and the music really fit well with all of the scenes. It was fun to play it both ways to see both endings. Great job!!

This was really cool. I would love to see this game get expanded upon as the lore behind the exorcists, their ranks and organisation is really interesting. The art was wonderful and the final choice was really difficult to make lol Great Job!

Lydia's LabyrinthVery fun and engaging story! Mr. Anthony's antics are also so familiar, so that's double the fun lol. The art style is simple but very cute! I also really like Ivan (yes, he is very charismatic... you win Ivan) and feel bad for him having this as his first job.I'm definitely looking forward to see more if you plan on expanding this world!

rotten angelThere’s something, and I still haven’t been able to figure out what the right term for it is, but it’s kind of a design language that can be found in the pacing of transitions, and knowing when to use a CG, or vary up the visual composition. You’re quite good at that, and I think it speaks to a particular insight into VNs as a medium!

Let's Watch Steamboat Willie!Really fun story! All characters were really nice to look at, and they all had identity. Looking forward to seeing more!

That's What the Coin SaidFun story and I like all the tree main characters! I will looking forward to it if you decided to expand the game! Maybe some sort of episodic dlc.

Indentured OvertimeA neat concept, with fun worldbuilding! The pacing and exposition really make the whole thing feel like the pilot to an anime, and one that I'd definitely see more of! Artemis is a very fun character, and leave the reader with some really interesting choices. Great job!

A Witch is Getting MarriedThat was quite a nice story! I like the artstyle as well and works well with everything else! Great worldbuilding i must say. I would recommend though setting the default text speed to not be instant, it sorta makes it feel less nice

Thoughts of UsI'm like 90% sure that you should've used 'Teacher' instead of 'Master' because of english connotations with the word, because some people might read it as 'person who owns you' instead of 'master of their craft'. unless i'm missing something and it's intentional, in which case good foreshadowing carry on
great work on the visuals!
