    Ultimately, reading Aokana often feels like eating a variety pack of candy. Sure, there may be some flavors that don’t hit in ways that some do. But the ratio of good outweighs the bad here, and opening the box in the first place is a safe bet for a good read.

    Aokana is an entertaining Sci-Fi Sports Fiction story, that is ultimately hard to stomach due to a plethora of lewd and toxic moments packed throughout.

    Aokana is a wholesome underdog story ruined by panty shots and sudden nudity. This being said, if you can see past the fan service, the distinctly unlikeable protagonist and one note characters – OK, that's a lot to look past – this actually comes together to create an engaging tale of overcoming fears and the power of friendship, and you can't help but root for them.

    Be aware that there are some lewd scenes (though no explicit nudity), so if titillation turns you off, this isn't the game for you. Otherwise, it is worth playing through what each route has to offer.    … Full Review »

    Because at first it can be a bit tedious, especially for people (like me) who don't speak English, at least in the version I bought, Limited Edition. But as time passes, it not only grabs you, it excites you and makes you get more into the role of the protagonist who makes the decisions. With beautiful drawings, the beautiful blue sky and the characters that you can conquer.

    This visual novel is perfect for when you have a trip and want to read something from your pocket or during a trip, having the blue sky in front of you and the screen. I highly recommend this novel. I love Aokana so much!!!!    … Full Review »
