Assuming this is a fan written complaint somewhere (and names being goofy meaning translation) it is unfortunate they aren’t familiar with Uchikoshi. Without knowing his games yeah you’re left wondering what the fuck happened here, whereas when you are informed you can look at it and go ‘yeah I can see why it turned out like that’. Not a particularly good representation of what he does best but instead a highlight of a guy writing a story how he typically doesn’t and thus his weaknesses/faults are on full display.

Yep. He’s not a character focus guy, he’s a ‘make characters to serve a purpose in the overall story guy’. In his own games he surprisingly has really good emotional endings to his various routes, but that’s because in the bulk of the routes there aren’t typically character moments it’s focusing on the main objective in the story while banter and jokes happen, saving everything for the important moments I guess. I actually had to remind myself that he’s really good with his route endings, some of the VLR endings looking back on them still make me teary eyed (Luna, Tenmyouji) and same with say the Ota and Mizuki endings of the first Somnium Files.
