Route review grisaia no kajitsu : makina route only

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 !

Maid café : let's talk about maid cafe

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.

Yosuga no sora anime review

Hello guys how are you ? Today I'm going to review an anime called yosuga no sora. Here is the description

Synopsis

Haruka Kasugano and his twin sister Sora have lost both their parents in an accident, and with them all their support. They decide to move out of the city to the rural town where they once spent summers with their late grandfather. At first everything seems familiar and peaceful, but changes come as Haruka starts to remember things from his youth.

(Source: ANN)
Ok I know that this anime is pretty old I mean it's aired in 2010 but the reason I want to give a review for this anime is because yosuga no sora is completly underrated, i mean I know for some people the idea of two siblings intimately love each other is weird or disturbing but who are we to judge right ? Love could exist in many form and circumstances. Well any way enough of the chit chat let's start the review shall we.

Warning : this review below May contains      Spoilers proceed at your own risk. 

Review :

Art and Animation: for the animation I'll give 8/10 because for an old anime the animation is pretty good and *cough* sexy *cough*

Hahaha you just couldn't say no to that "cute" face could you ?

The view and the angle from the animation really capture the special scene perfectly and art really is just stunning and fit the series hence forth I give 8/10 for the animation

Characther:

For me the characters in this anime is unique in its own way because every girls and including the protagonist have been through major development over the series at the start you'll see the heroines  as another cliche harem character although the protagonist is a bit different  because he's the " bishounen " type but at the end he is still undecisive and naïve 

Anyway later on as we move on to each of the heroines route's the characters start to develop gradually such as sora at the first of her route she's just your typical Tsundere clingy sister but as we delve further in her story she's just simply "transform" into a more complex and likeable character with deep emotional conflicts 

While the development for the protagonist haruka well since this anime is adapted from a Visual Novel so it's  obvious that each girls gets a story the difference is the story is separated with each route so after one route is finished it  will reset to the "save point" to get to another route so without saying all the protagonist development also get reseted 

So with that in mind I'll give 8/10 for the 

characters 

Story : 

As you know the anime is adapted from a visual novel by the same name and according to my experience of watching anime. Most anime that comes from visual novel usually only serves as promoting tools for the Visual novel and does not deliver the depthness of the visual novel it self, especially when the anime in question is only have 12/13 episodes. But regardless the lack of story and explaination it is still very enjoyable and the concept of "save point" is also very refreshing so I'll give 7/10 for the story

Sound and seiyuu ( VA ) :

Well guys we are coming to the best part of the review, there's only one word to describe this stunning. The BGM is amazing one of the best I've heard  check this out one of my favourite BGM

It's really fit for the anime there's a bit of sadness in the BGM yet at the same time there's also a feint Ray of hope.

The Opening and ending it's pretty catchy and easy to listen also held a deep meaningful lyrics 

The seiyuu ( voice actor/actress ) 

Taguchi hiroko is really nailed it as sora her voice is just...just so CUTE and VERY SEDUCTIVE as hell she really gets the essence of sora character 

And shimono hiro also done a good joba as haruka as well as the other VA's henceforth I shal give this 9/10

Conclusion :

This anime really fascinated me, it holds deep meaning the anime shows real struggle it shows you how vulnerable you are when you are alone so for all child or teenager that thinks your better off without your parents think again because all the things you have now and take it all for granted it exist because your parents hard work that's morale one the second one is all love could exist in many forms,ways and circumstances so don't judge because when you love someone/something you shouldn't care about what anyone might think just think about what you want and care.

And that's all it's finish my review thanks for reading my review, and oh yeah I'm going to review yosuga no sora VN maybe next week or so but sora route only because the game is not fully translated yet well then kaito signed off.
