Decent story from what I've played (only played up to the coming-of-age ceremony), though I had to use VNR in order to actually hook anything. Not a fan of story-based H-scenes or games that give you the illusion of choice (your choices don't really matter since choosing not to do something only delays the inevitable and you get game overs until you find the right items/talk to the right people). Being able to save only at save points is also kind of a pain. At the very least I do think it's fappable since I have something for tomboys getting turned into sluts, but I guess that's just personal preference.

Well this game has a big story compared to other games and that you need items to "avoid" H-scenes isnt true atleast as far as i know i played it like 2-3 hours and there is always a choice but when you do a h-scene its a gameover thats true ... the nice thing about this game though is after the game over your game starts automaticly at the point where you choose the answer and now you can just avoid it with the other answer and progress further into the game.... most of the time the 2nd choice in questions lead to the hscene for you guys who dont translate and just skip through the game
TLDR:If you try to rush things and not fight monster then at some point you´ll have a problem because some of the later bosses have a ton of HP can crit AND stunn you so i recommend to fight the monsters you encounter a bit before advancing further because thats not as annoying as having to grind later on... trust me =P
There are some flashback scenes that I find annoying. One seemed to go on forever. There's also 'Monk' (ムンク) who is the creepy old guy doping her underwear with aphrodisiacs. I wish I could put an icepick through his brain.
The hints of a relationship with her childhood friend and Red (アッカ) the adventureress are more to my taste.
Also, all those slimes and tentacle plants and no game over rape?

My god is this game long-winded. I guess the H scenes are fappable, but jesus the author really was serious about making an actual serious RPGMaker game (who does that anymore, anyway?). Lurching from one character drama to another. Flashbacks after flashbacks. Silly hijinks after another. Compounded with a main character with some generally unlikable quirks in the face of adversity.
Just past the part where
she got dumped by that guy and made up with him, asking for his help.
I guess I'll keep playing, but it's getting really hard to drudge through this, with H scenes getting sparser and sparser.

Thats exactly where im stuck because he said i have to get armor first but when i got to the shop in the arena he says i need to find the blacksmith and the blacksmith is in the residential area ... guess what ... i cant enter the residential area because i have no ID .... i literally spoke to every person twice and still dont know what to do...

Hopefully you have a backup save. Basically, before you meet up with
your boyfriend, you were suppose to go to the restaurant you work at and pick up a temporary pass from the owner there to get into the residential district. The cut-off point is roughly before the hot spring sex scene. Otherwise, after that you won't be able to enter the restaurant, and you need to be able to get into the residential district to get that armor
. It's a bug according to the author's site. I guess it'll be fixed with the latest version, but with a game like this, dunno if anyone's going to bother keeping up to date with version releases.
On another note, complete CG saves for people who don't want to trudge 10 odd hours through this game. Seems to be two empty "slots" in your home area even when you choose to unlock all the scenes, so don't know if that's a bug.
A few thoughts after clearing:
I personally feel the game suffers from two points: a failure of the show-don't-tell rule of thumb with over-reliance on flashbacks, which really really ruins the pacing of the game, and depth in all the wrong places for all the subcharacter's backstory that ultimately turn out to be inconsequential. There's also a general lack of breadth since the main bulk of the game consists of the village part, the tournament part, and the aftermath part, and you never venture out the city in the later two parts, making the game feel a bit cramp as you're running errands within the same couple maps.
There's also the issue of H scenes integration that kind of fell short, but I'm willing to let that slide since they are pretty fappable, even if they (unfortunately) have no impact on the story.
Overall, could be a pretty good game if released a few years earlier (if it's true the author really did start making this in 2011), but the RPGMaker scene (as far as I've played) has moved on from these traditionalist fairs, and with a not particularly strong story (better than not having a story, of course), poor pacing, and H scenes petering out a bit early makes for a "not bad, but not really great either" game. Good amount of depth though in character interactions, but overall storytelling could use a bit of work. Still, with decent art (even if it is somewhat inconsistent in quality) and fappable H scene dialogue, I think the circle's next work is worth looking forward to.
The last one is an elf-ish looking person in the library, who will ask for a rare gem. You talk to the other guy at the same table for more info, I think, who will direct you to the turban salesman in the hall of the VIP rooms. He will ask for orichalcum, making you huff all the way back to the hotel in town to pick up the armor ninja girl abandoned and bring it back to him. He'll then tell you he sold the gem to some merchant-looking person, so go talk to the item shop keep in the monster training room to get the rare gem/stone, and bring it back to the elf-ish guy in the library.
