Kimochii Classroom

I'm typically a pretty cynical person when it comes to VNs, I've read very few but those I have usually come with some caveat I'm aware of beforehand. In line with this, I knew Kimochii Classroom wasn't going to be a standard affair in the medium thanks to its connection with Radish ASMR. Nonetheless, I was enraptured by the genuine amity that develops through the story and heartbroken by the inevitable yet soul-crushing fall of the hammer. The voice acting talent must also be recognized, as each does an outstanding job working with a script that covers both mundanity and all stripes of tumultuous emotions. Many of the CGs were beautiful as well, I'm especially fond of Aikou Park at sundown. The one caution I'd give is that this experience is made twice as rich having been up-to-date on Radish ASMR's videos. If you're at all interested in this visual novel, I'd highly recommend going through the channel before reading this, although I do not believe it is explicitly necessary in order to enjoy it. All-in-all, a truly heartwarming experience partnered with the most bitter and cruel ending that can be fathomed. Hats off to Akemi and the rest of the team for this phenomenal story! (Updating for 2025 Steam Awards, all of the above still stands!)
