Repetitive
This is the story of an absolute bastard who's so wussy, his
last ditch attempt at proving that he has power is...yep,
bullying women. And he doesn't just bully any kind of women.
He wants them older, more experienced, and supposedly wiser.
To clarify my point, in case I’m still not too crystal
about this, he spouts laughable diatribes such as, “She
still believes in her power. Very typical of a bureaucrat.
She doesn't know it's just an illusion.” I doubt
whoever concocted this convoluted tale is aware that those
words could be thrown back at his protagonist. In other words,
I could say the same thing for Mr. Cakeboy here. He can't
get rid of some annoying men without the help of his women.
He even can't defeat one woman without using a child. Oh,
did I fail to mention he can also metamorph into a child molester?
The justification here is that he has this evil blood running
through his veins because he descended from a clan that harbors
a deep dark secret. Excuse me while I laugh my guts out. Yes,
I should be vewy vewy scared of the malevolent being that
loves picking on women, children and lesser animals. And that
deep, dark secret? Your guess is as good as mine.
As for the women… Good Lord, please give these women
personalities! They're all the same, save for one feisty teacher,
who unfortunately ends up turning into one of 'em. All but
two are submissive, insecure, helpless and basically do nothing
but gasp—with or without sex scenes. These stupid, and
supposedly mature, women let a kid think for them when it
comes to basic decisions like rejecting a persistent suitor
etc.
And that same old blackmail crap! Jeez, how unoriginal. I
don't think a real "strong-minded woman" would fall
for it. With the technology these days, you could always say
the blackmail materials were edited even if they weren't.
Smart women know that if they followed directions that say,
"Be in this room and take this pill at this hour,"
they're going to be running through a vicious cycle. Again,
this emphasizes how moronic the storyline is. Perhaps the
author hasn't been around smart people that much. Come on!
Give us something a bit more mentally challenging here!
The men, on the other hand, are equally idiotic (either that
or they're suicidal). One example: Shuichi introduces one
of the girlies as his GF and one guy notices a string attached
to the crotch area of her gym shorts. This guy pulls at the
string. Now, what normal guy would put his hands anywhere
near another guy's GF while the BF is around? This is just
proof that the characters here are not only bland, but they
clearly haven't been well thought out.
Gameplay is repetitive. What’s the use of trying to
put several endings in there when we all know that the women
are all going to break and become his obedient sex slaves
anyway? The only thing that’s convenient in there is
the Auto-Click Mode. I had not gotten any sense of comfort
in the Skip Messages Mode because they also skip unread messages.
The usual stuff like CG Gallery, Ending Gallery, Recollections
(who the heck would want to remember this game's banalities?),
Music Gallery are available here.
Artwork, to say the least, is…how should I say this
delicately? The females sometimes resemble Kerokerokeroppi*,
Happosai**, or steamed dumpling
(apologies to the three I’ve likened them with). The
hentai scenes are abundant—bondage, enema, and other
unmentionable tortures—but it’s not like you’d
look forward to more ugly women doing the nasty. Some of the
CGs are also rehashed. I mean, one girl would be wearing black
underwear today, and then her next movement shows her wearing
red undies—the same ones she was wearing the day before.
Don’t get me wrong. Sometimes I like teacher-student
situations, especially when they turn the tables around and
it’s the guy who’s the student. This is a theme
that, when done correctly, can elicit oohs and ahhs from both
female and male hentai fans. This one? You’re better
off watching the Aquarium Channel.
