Eh. I feel like I might have liked this when I was an edgy teenage girl, constantly plotting world domination with my friends. Completely wholesome, no adult content (except occasional references to death/murder/world domination). The story goes: confusing and slightly annoying - confusing but potentially interesting - funny - tedious - aggravatingly tedious - hopeful that the end is coming - annoying - tedious - mildly interesting - starting to get tedious again - urgh when will this end - wait was that really the end? Phew. - no wait, it wasn't. - oh look the real end, that feels even less like the end! Honestly it should have ended by achievement 8. After that point it just becomes stalling and padding. Not that it doesn't have some amusing moments after that point of course. But I don't think it was really worth reading after the apple-lanche. Spoiler alert; the obnoxious brat doesn't grow as a person, but her prescence is watered down later in the story when there are 5-6 other characters around to help reduce how much screen time she gets. But then it amps up again when the number of characters drops back down. And at the very end I think we're supposed to feel like sh…

This VN is actually a comedy. You won't be able to read 3 sentences without a joke being thrown, so don't expect a serious story. The English writing, which is the original language, is good. I've barely seen any mistakes. However, the storytelling is first timer level. This VN is ludicrously long winded and slow paced. It gives the impression of a homework being artificially inflated with words to meet a quota. This 12-15 hours VN could've been written to be a 3 hours VN and only gain in quality from it. The characters are not believable humans. It has a lot to do with them only trying to joke or be funny with sarcasm, but also their complete nonsensical decision making and thought process. We are sadly stuck "being" the worst character (Lily) for the vast majority of the story, The ending is incredibly unsatisfying. It's what cemented my decision to leave this negative review. Why set a story in Japan purposefully but not have characters use honorifics? The dev/writer has potential, but they need serious work on the basics of story telling, and they need some proof readers to help cut off the massive amount of useless fat. I think with more experience they can one day relea…

It's impossible to overstate how much I love this game, with its hilarious dry sarcasm and tongue-in-cheek humour. An isekai (in both directions), it's criminally underrated. Wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommended.

Cute, silly game that at times doesn't make a lick of logical sense but has a quirky fun charm keeping you going through to the end.

Perhaps a touch too meandering at times, Memento of Spring is a light, cozy read that I enjoyed a lot. Charming despite - and a little because of - its roughness in places, much like its main character. It's indulgently long and just full of cute girls goofing off and trying to deal with an adorable princess of calamity. Low stakes, no fear, what's better than this?
