The whole situation is bad for my heart!
Nice art, catchy music, generally likable stock characters, competent and reasonably polished dialogue, decent but underdeveloped story, engaging gameplay, well-presented image gallery. Gameplay-wise, you've got a month to prepare for a big boss fight and woo everyone you can. You're encouraged to date around, raising your relationship status with everyone by completing quests, going on patrol, training to raise your stats, giving gifts, and going on dates. Everything costs either energy or money, so it's a bit of a puzzle to optimize your route through the game. Story-wise, the tone fluctuates: your companions all have a soft and silly side, but they've also got tragic backstories that make a lot of the dates kind of depressing, and you're in the middle of a life-or-death conflict. There's one ending for each love interest, plus bonus endings if you romance either everyone (which is difficult but doable) or no one. Really, you're developing close friendships and then seeing a snapshot of the after story; this is not a salacious VN by any means, aside from a few adult jokes. There's occasional profanity, some mature themes, a handful of revealing outfits (mostly in the DLC), a provocative event CG or two, and no blood. The turn-based combat is standard RPG fare, but you need to prepare well and switch strategically between weapons and armors to survive. It's fun but repetitive; you need to grind a LOT for money, and half of what you can buy isn't worth the price (eg, don't bother buying combat support from your patrol buddies outside the final battle). Normal costumes are expensive and don't stay permanently unlocked, so it's worth having the DLC costumes; however, the game forgets your DLC costume selection when loading a save. You can toggle voice acting for individual characters, but there's no option to skip seen dialogue or auto-advance the text. You can only save at certain times, which means beating the final boss 7 times to see all 7 endings. :(
