I finally got around to catching up on some reading and found this great review. I don't think the depth of the characters in this game can truly be explained. You can find yourself being drawn to certain characters just to know more about them at the expense of actually playing the game. I found myself being drawn to Nanako's story and felt sorry for her so much so I talked to her every chance I got bypassing some special encounters that could have happened. I had to play the game several times to find out everything and I am not sure I found all there was.

Well done.

Thanks for your response! This is the first -official- review that I've written, I was worried I got rather scattered because there was just so much I wanted to talk about. You can probably tell I'm enthusiastic about this game :)

I appreciate your comment and I definitely share your enthusiasm for the storyline with Nanako in particular; she is so adorable! You can imagine my surprise when I found out her voice actor is actually

I may have known Ms. Strassman did Nanako's voice some time in the past but had completely forgotten about that. She did a really good job.

I could tell from your review that you really liked the game a lot, dare I say loved it, but then again so did I. I felt it was much improved over Persona 3. Personally I liked being able to choose turn-based combat or not.

I thought your pacing was good and I might be biased but I liked reading your review probably because it brought back good memories of my time playing the game.
