welcome guys, to another route review. now as you know in this review i'll only talks about one route only and definitely not the entire game it self. so this review is about konami asaba from koi ga saku koro sakura doki, she's one out of five heroines that you could select as a love interest. and coincidentally she's also the main protagonist (asaba yuuma) little sister AKA imouto and blood related on top of that !. yes this route is all about forbidden relationship between siblings, so for those that don't like this kind of stuff i suggest you don't read this and read something else in this blog. and for those that enjoy this kind of FORBIDDEN romance, i kindly "forbid" you to read until the bottom of this review. now if you don't know why i said that let me give you an enlightenment we humans i always attracted to the word forbidden. now the review.
konami started as an imouto with father complex not brother complex unlike most heroines in others VN's. in fact she doesn't really cared for her brother in the beginning even though her brother always seem's to do his best for his imouto, but while konami appreciate the gesture she really just don't care until their father died anyway. then she started to become close to her brother hmm...kinda remind with a certain twins *cough*sora* cough*. Now her route starts when tina (one of the heroines) the self proclaimed "love fairy" asked konami if she love somebody, and yes she does answer that she love somebody, and that somebody is her brother although the love is family love tina takes it as "that" kind of love, and the misunderstanding begins. Until it reach to the point that konami herself realise that she does love her brother that way. and thus konami inner struggle begins, then she decided to forget about society and all and just trying to make yuuma see her as a women in not so subtle way(now before you ask what are her ways, i'm going to make myself clear i won't tell you that cuz where is the fun in that). After her ways are proofed ineffective against yuuma, she just take the express way and tell yumma that she is in love with him. now yuuma being a good brother he is he said NO to her, telling her that it is wrong to fall in love with him. And konami being a cute imouto she is just wouldn't give up, to the point yuuma have to strikes the deal with the devil in this case his own kawaii imouto. The deal sounds pretty much like this " I will accept your feeling and become your boyfriend, but i don't love you as a woman and you are welcome to change that in a limit of one month if you fail then i will not pursue you anymore, (by konami condition)". and after that I think you guys could summarize it by your own, yuuma falls for her in the time range and there is conflict and after that happy ever after.
Now that the summary of the route is complete, lets talk about her character. As a heroine i think its safe to say that konami is quite a likeable one, i mean she is cute in appearances have good body and have a quite refreshing imouto personality.but for me what i like from her aside from the obvious is her strong will and determination for example in winning shogi game with the prez or gaining yuuma affection and finally when she transfer to another school and didn't have any contact with yuuma at all for 3 years. so how about the art and sounds/BGM, well for the art is really good i mean that is one of the reason i played this game the sounds/BGM it's quite standard for me but in overall good.

note : i'll be honest with you guys here, this is probably the worst review you read so far, i don't know what came into me maybe i just have a bloggers block or something regardless of this i hope you enjoy your stay here. and expect some good post from me in the future. yours sincerely kaito.
Hello guys this is route review a review that only talks about one heroine route only and not the entire game it self. and today I'm going to review makina route from grisaia no kajitsu because I just finished it recently. The route takes about 16-20 hours ( my rough estimation because I played only in weekend so I kinda forgot how much time I played every week ) the common route it self takes about 6 hrs so yeah it is a long route anyway let's start the review.
Warning this review may contains spoiler proceed at your own risk you had been warned
At the very start of the game I already choose makina as my first route and she only have two end, one bad end and one good end. to get into her route is not that hard in fact it's very easy you'll know it right away when you'll be given the choice, still I'll give the Walkthrough at the end of my review Anyways let's start the review shall we.
At first glance you may see makina as a childish character that crave for love and attention while that statement is correct but it's go way beyond that. makina's character is so complex and by far her route is my favourite in the game her character transition in the game is just amazing, from spoiled brat at the beginning to a mature yet slightly childish fine young lady and of course kazami yuuji play a big role for her development he's the one who taught her how to survive in this harsh and selfish world.
At the beginning off her route yuuji received an email from makina that said he had "level up" from onii-chan to "papa" which naturally confused yuuji, as he Confronts makina about the email she said she wanted to buy yuuji as her papa with her life allowance which equal with ¥70 million. And when yuuji saw Makina face he knew that she had abandonment issue and with that in mind he accepted the money and becomes makina "papa" beside he couldn't really leave this kid alone and he said that he will protect makina even if the world is her enemy which makes makina really happy. After yuuji had the agreement from his classmates and superior, he officially have become makina's father/papa not legally though and the way he teach makina is actually quite similar with the way yuuji's master asako teach him before only softer. He teach her from how to run properly to how to be a sniper and shoot accurately and how to make love properly...yup in other word intercourse it's not surprising is it not it's an eroge after all and for me it's quite hot too \(//∇//)\ anyway as we dive in the story we get the idea of who yuuji really is and what's his "work" is although not his past and of course we learn about makina's past too and all the hardships she's had lived from "spoiler" The assassination of her beloved real biological dad in front of her eyes and watched her dad corpse decaying in hot summer climate while being chained to a pillar with no food or drink for a whole week, after being rescued and put into hospital only to find that her mother think of her only as a tool and left her in the hospital for a really long time "end". In short makina route is the most action packed with heavy feels and touching moments also combine with deep tragedy and useless chit chat
The story :
Makina story is deep with psychological, tragedy and suspense and of course action from yuuji side, and by far her route is actually the most interesting one not to mention it's action packed and full of conspiracy but unfortunately it's also have quite a lot of useless chit-chat and such so it's kinda boring at the beginning to middle and at the near end that's when the story really climaxing to the top
If you choose wrong you'll get the bad end which yuuji *****spoiler alert***** died and makina couldn't cope with it after a year she has manage to open a bakery and got pregnant (yuuji's child) and put yuuji remains in a bag in the living room still thinking that he's alive and she has become the replacement for yuuji the new 9029. *************************************** end *************** while the good end is a secret you have to play it to know !!!
Hence I'll give 9/10
Art :
Simple it's excellent and beautiful 10/10
Sound and BGM :
The BGM is nice and fit the scene perfectly although the system voice is kinda overlapping with other voices and of course the VA ( seiyuu ) makina's seiyuu tamiyasu tomoe had done a very good job performing as Makina she really "fit" with the character and personality
08/10
In overall I shall give this route 09/10
In conclusion if you looking for action packed with suspense this is the route for you !

Okay, while i was thinking about what to write next somehow maid cafe keeps popping in my head. So i decided to write about it, i mean why not ? this blog after all talks about otaku culture right. And beside maid cafe is usually associated with otaku, when we think about maid cafe it's usually leads to moe which leads us to otaku and finally leads us to akihabara AKA otaku heaven. and c'mon who in their right mind doesn't like MAID cafe, that's right MAID there is the keyword. Anyway enough of my rambling, let's get down to the business.
"Maid cafés(メイド喫茶 / メイドカフェMeido kissa / Meido kafe) are a subcategory of cosplay restaurants
found predominantly in Japan. In these cafés, waitresses dressed in
maid costumes act as servants, and treat customers as masters (and
mistresses) in a private home, rather than as café patrons. The first
permanent maid café, Cure Maid Café, was established in Akihabara, Tokyo, Japan, in March 2001"
( taken from wikipedia )
That paragraph up there is the definition of maid cafe, that I'm too lazy to write. So basically maid cafe is a place where you can find maid just like in anime that will serve you just like their masters/mistresses with a fee of course and restrictions, i mean obviously the maid in maid cafe could not and would not serve "ALL" your needs, if you know what i mean is. Now how about the costume, well the costume in maid cafe usually a stereotypical maid outfit in anime or manga, just like this picture below.
Although sometimes the costume also include a pair of animal ears for example nekomimi aka cat ears.
The services and ritual in maid cafe usually starts with maids greet customers with "Welcome home, Master (Mistress)" (お帰りなさいませ、ご主人様!Okaerinasaimase, goshujinsama)
and offer them wipe towels and menus. also the maids will also kneel by the
table to stir cream and sugar into a customer's coffee, and some cafes
even offer spoon-feeding services to customers.also additionally, maid cafes
offer grooming services, such as ear cleanings and leg, arm, and back
massages (with clothes on) obviously, for an
additional fee. Customers can also sometimes pay to play card or video games and take a picture with maids.
There many type of maid in maid cafe for example: tsundere maid,imouto (little sister) maid,yandere maid even trap aka drag maid. here is the video of danny choo in a maid cafe with example of tsundere and imouto maid.
Now to all of you that have reach this far in my not so great article, must be interested in maid cafe right ? and you probably thinking "man, i wish i live in japan so that i could go to maid cafe everyday only to be given cold shoulders by a tsundere maid". well no worries folks because maid cafe also exist not just in japan but also in several other countries like america. for example maid cafe NY which located in well...new york and also my cup of tea-maid cafe which located in washington DC.
Maid cafe NY
My cup of tea-maid cafe
Also in case you're wondering about anime or manga with maid cafe theme in it try Kaichou wa Maid-sama!
synopsis : Misaki Ayuzawa is the first female student council president at a
once-all-boys-turned-co-ed school. She rules the school with a strict
discipline demeanor, but she has a secret: she works at a maid cafe due
to her family's circumstances. One day, the popular A-student and
notorious heart-breaker Takumi Usui finds out her secret and makes a
deal with her to keep it hush from the school in exchange for spending
some time with him.
