Sharin no Kuni was pretty bad.

Like 2/3rds of it was boring and slow. The stuff near the end made up for it some, but it just wasn't enough for me to call it 'good'.

Funny to hear that from you. After all, most of the 'boring and slow' stuff is essential character development.

I know you're making fun of tcaz2 and he deserves it, but the length of Touka's chapter was really unnecessary.




As for Gsen and Sharin sharing flaws...



*LARGE BUT OBVIOUS SPOILERS FOR BOTH GAMES*












Both have MCs who start out as somewhat amoral badasses, but turn into boring goody two shoes in the end. It would've been nice if they'd at least had final chapter alternate bad ends where they stay on the wrong (interesting) path, rather than the generic path they went with.

I liked most of SnK's heroines better than GSen's, but Maou and the plot blow everything in Sharin away. GSen's pacing was much improved too.

Do Natsumi's route first. It fits much better with the game's story, which seems pretty stupid if you choose one of the other girls.

and G Senjou's way better than Sharin no Kuni overall, though both suffer from the same flaw.

Still haven't finished Episode 7 of Umineko, but eh, I'm in no rush until Episode 8's on the horizon!

Episode 7's a better place to end the series anyway.
