but it's mainly due to the fact that the plot is pretty basic and easy to write without falling into major inconsistencies. The first story takes place after the end of Kotori's route, and, overall, it hasn't any major writing issues. Since it hasn't a overarching plot, I'll review the different stories of the game separately, and I'll only analyze the characters with afterstories or new routes. I had to admit this game improved on things the original game was lacking, but it still has some issues. To get the third new route, you'll need to pay for it, since it's separate from the base game) and a short side story told in journal format.

It features three afterstories, three additional routes (technically are two. This game hasn't an overarching plot or dating sim mechanics it features some additional stories that have connection with the main game. This is an expansion of "If My Heart Had Wings" (what a cheesy title), from the same developers as the original game. So, I didn't know the game had an expansion, and now, here we are. If the non Amane/Kotori routes were just a tad higher in quality I'd consider this on par with the original. If people wanna just read Flight Diary for this route, I'd recommend it since it involves everyone and as said above give closure to almost everyone. Everything from the flight onward was very emotional. The final flight towards the end was great, especially without having to rely on. Its the only route to cover what Aoi/Kotori/Ageha will do in the year theyd graduate, and generally gave closure to a lot of characters as well as introducing some likable new ones. I didn't really like the 'fight' that happened, but everything else was fantastic. * Kotori's sequel route ended up being pretty great. Cool that MoeNovel actually went out of their way to translate Cruise Sign only content. It had cute romance, a cute Akari, and nice ties to the student council. * Akari's route was great and had content that felt like it belonged in the original. It was just a weird Himegi sister 3some mini route but at least it was quite short. well I can see why it was removed in MoeNovel's release lol. Woulda been nice to have more but I like slice of life thankfully. * The Kazato twins route was fine as 1 day short slice of life route.

Them having less of a focus on the Soaring Club was nice but I dont think it went quite the distance it could have for both. * Hotaru and Kanako had alright/decent routes for cute but kinda weird romance. Might be favorite for the stuff alone and almost considered this VN a 9/10 for this route alone. * Amane's route was great for the simple/cute romance and friendship related to.

* The Kotori prologue was fine but I didn't consider it particularly necessary. I overall really liked it and it solid amount of actual content besides just typical fandisc stuff. I read both the Steam translation (for Akari's route, and the story) and the original Japanese (for Himegi 3some, and H-scenes).
