Really solid entry, I'm surprised that this one isn't getting the attention it deserves! The art is very cute, the writing feels lively and fun the whole way through, and I also appreciate the interesting take on the battle system! (though, I will say that after a certain point it starts to feel much too slow once you get the hang of it, but it's a short ride so I suppose it shouldn't be much of an issue?)
In any case, along with two others this is another one of my favorites so I hope it does well in the judging!
