Okay after a few weeks I finally finished the game. Basically I went all the routes and the only one I skipped was Comedy and Battle(?). I actually understood the assignment and put the SF route for last which I finished an hour ago.

I honestly think I did not like that route. Just because I really hoped that it was in the vein of the Last Defense Academy 2nd Scenario route. It felt too hamfisted? It lacked tons of things that the characters could have fixed in a way. Also introducing the old man and the "woman in her 50s" were too out of nowhere. Especially the latter considering it wasn't revisted anymore and was just said "yeah they are there".

For me the SF route should have combined conspiracy, 2nd scenario, and rebellion for maximum effect. Basically in the end, I really felt that the actual true ending, if there is one, was 2nd scenario. Even though I'm not found of Nozomi. Doesn't help that the best ending song was also put there again.

I dunno. Either I just didn't understand that much, or they made too much of a big deal of that route.

Character rankings:
Hiruko > Tsubasa > Kurara > Kako > Takemaru > Nozomi > Eito > Kyoushika = Darumi > Yugamu = Shouma = Moko >>>>>>>>>> Ima >>>>>>>>>> Gaku

God I fucking hate Ima and Gaku so much. They are basically the ones that really start fucking up a lot of shit which are some of the reasons everything cascades into trouble.
