I really liked this!
The characters were interesting enough I wanted to know what happened to them, especially after the story ended.
While the twists were surprising, it followed enough of a logical conclusion that it didn't feel completely out there.
This felt like a story the author wanted to tell, regardless of typically story conventions that may have been expected out of a cutesy farm life visual novel, which I always respect.
The chemistry segment made me feel rather stupid though lol.
