AMANATSU+

Amanatsu+ is a solid fandisc, but it is overly sweet. I honestly struggled to read it for more than about an hour at a time. The comedy isn't as good as the original and it is further spread out so there isn't as much of a palate cleanser as I'd like. Music is largely the same, there's nearly no drama again - which is nice at times - and the girls are cute. Hopefully you read the original Amanatsu recently, or reread it, because there will be nearly no retreading of what happened in the original routes. The "plot" scenes are lengthy, but well-written, with five of them per heroine present. It isn't too long, taking me just under 10 hours to read (rest of the time spent idling doing other stuff). Honestly, not a whole lot to say about this one. Did you enjoy the original game? Then pick this up, but know it's going to be incredibly sweet.

You follow one of the three heroines through a summer in the rural town of Nanakayama, with festivals, dates, and everyday moments as a couple. There’s no major conflict, with the focus instead on small interactions and relationship growth. Each route highlights a different dynamic, from Kazuha’s softer side in private, to Kogane’s contrast between her lively and gentle personality, and Yashiro’s gradual openness. 🎮 Gameplay ① Route Selection at Start You choose one of the 3 heroines right away, and the story follows that relationship for the entire route. ② Linear Structure There are little to no branching choices. Once a route is selected, the story plays out in a straightforward way. ③ Slice-of-Life Progression Gameplay is focused on reading through scenes such as dates, festival events, and everyday interactions, with a relaxed pace throughout. 💖 Characters • Ainokura Kazuha — Tsundere fiancée who shows a softer, more honest side in private • Amahara Kogane — Cheerful and outgoing, with a surprisingly gentle side when alone • Kaminashi Yashiro — Calm and reserved, gradually becoming more open and affectionate The heroines are clearly the main focus. Each route builds on their personalities and gives more time to their relationship with the protagonist, with an emphasis on everyday interactions rather than major events. 🏆 VERDICT After a successful first game, AMANATSU+ continues right where the original left off and lets you spend more time with…

[後半に日本語レビューあり] Three Cute Girlfriends, One Sweet Summer After-Story An after-story in AZARASHI's beloved rural romance series. Set in Nanakayama, it depicts "what comes next" for the three heroines from the original. Festival chaos, shopping dates, quiet afternoons together—the game is built squarely around the sweet daily life shared with your girlfriend. The game uses a multi-choice, single-ending structure. Tsundere Kazuha lets her guard down in private; cheerful Kogane's sudden gentleness one-on-one is irresistible; Yashiro's occasional candid moments carry an outsized punch. The series' signature cute anime art carries through, and all heroines are voiced by professional Japanese talent. The game assumes prior knowledge of the original, and the Steam release does not include Japanese text. Volume is modest at a few hours. For players with an attachment to the heroines from the first game, this is a sequel worth enjoying. HHF-chan's comment: "I just can't get enough of those little moments when Kazuha drops her guard and goes all honest!!" かわよ彼女×3との、夏のあまーい後日談 あざらしそふとによる田舎恋愛シリーズの後日談。七香山を舞台に、前作で結ばれた3人のヒロインとの「その後」を描く。夏祭り、お買い物デート、ふたりきりの午後。恋人との甘やかな日常に特化した構成だ。 ゲームは複数選択肢のシングルエンディング形式。ツンデレのカズハはふたりきりで本音を見せ、天真爛漫なコガネは一対一で柔らかくなるギャップが魅力的だ。ヤシロが見せるたまのかわよい素直さは破壊力がある。CGはシリーズらしい萌え系絵柄、プロ声優によるボイス付き。 前作プレイ済みが前提の作りで、Steam版には日本語テキストが含まれない。ボリュームも数時間程度と短め。前作のヒロインたちへの思い入れがあるプレイヤーには、楽しめる続編だと言えるだろう。 HHFちゃんコメント: 「カズハのふっとした素直な顔が見たくてしょうがないワー！」 Check out our Steam curator (link) , YouTube channel (link), and X(Twitter) (link)!
