Renai 0 Kilometer: A Girl's Song That's All Kinds of Messy but Still Warm

Originally, I started with Asairo, then played half of it and switched to Kimi to Boku to Eden no Ringo… And then Pockies Wili recommended Renai 0 Kilometer, so I went and downloaded it. Honestly, I’d seen this game on Ruri Shrine a long time ago, but one look at the synopsis gave me a strong nukige vibe, so I skipped it. After playing it though, how should I put this… I’m feeling pretty conflicted. Put simply, this game overturned my long-standing criteria for judging a story. (Spoilers ahead.)
