Also, the character dynamics are quite enjoyable to read. They pack some serious whimsy and humor.

Besides calling mochi a type of "dumpling," in all other aspects the game is simply sublime. You've nailed each character's idiosyncracies and personalities. Overall, I can say the visuals couldn't be better, with endearing character sprites and a food menu in Kanji characters (with adjacent translations for gaijins of course). Finally, though the audio is simple the BGM suits the environment nicely, and SFX rewards players for gameplay. This is what I waited ten years in the joint for!

The art is vibrant and even the battle sprites are simply charming. The combat and balancing is superb too! Overall an amazing piece.
