What’s it about ?
Oh, another visual novel adaptation which crosses over with the sports genre ! Except this one has a male target audience.
Characters
Interestingly, our main character for now is Asuka, the ditzy cheerful girl. She’s just now getting into Flying Circus, a sports that involves sommersaulting around with flying shoes.
The game’s male lead, Masaya, is relegated to a support role for now : he’s brooding in the background about how he used to be good at FC until a fateful incident two years ago, and offers a few useful pointers (as well as recognizes Asuka’s innate talent).
There are other girls. Kinda tells you how much I payed attention, eh ?
Production Values
Well, it certainly does the job of selling a definite sense of wonder about flying in general, and Flying Circus in particular.
Also, magic skirts are thankfully in effect.
Overall Impression
Zzzzzzz… Sorry, I just don’t care. The characters are very boring, Masaya’s angst is laughable, and the spectacle inherent to the gimmicky sport isn’t enough to carry the show on its own.
I’ll pass.
