A game combining 70s shoujo manga with Phantom of the Opera and lesbians is so incredibly my kind of niche that of course I'm gonna enjoy this VN lol.
This game's visuals do a wonderful job of emulating the visual style of Ryoko Ikeda's shoujo work; I believe the team primarily looked at Rose of Versailles, but Tomiko definitely has vibes of a character in Ikeda's other manga Onii-sama/Dear Big Brother. My favorite things about work trying to imitate Ryoko Ikeda's work is not just how they emulate the art style, but how they depict her abstract patterns and lines that she regularly used to suggest a specific mood or intensity from the scene and the characters. This game actually goes through the effort of emulating that aspect with motion design around the character sprites, and I'm really a big fan of the results! It's definitely something I'd love to figure out how to emulate in my own work.
