I believe that this game deserves way more attention than it got, which is why I'm going to go out of my way to offer this brief review:

Little Busters! is a fantastic coming-of-age story centered around friendship. It is a classic work by VisualArts Key, the makers of other naki-ge (games that make you cry) like CLANNAD and Summer Pockets. The art, the music, and the voice acting in this game is phenomenon, and its world and characters feel alive in ways that other visual novels cannot easily achieve. This occurs in no small part due to the unique integration of RNG mechanics through the game's fighting tournament ranking system and optional minigames, which allows each subsequent route or playthrough to always have something new and interesting even in the sections common to all routes (such as when the weakest character defeats the strongest character in combat, the absurdity of which will actually be recognized by the game)!

I love this game, and I love its story, as do the overwhelming majority of those who've played it to completion. If you're reading this review, don't hesitate to buy this game as it will be very much worth it, especially given how long it is (you can easily spend over a hundred hours in this game without exhausting all of its content).

Tl;dr: Another highly recommended work authored by our lord and savior Jun Maeda. It is a visual novel that feels alive and is probably the most game-like traditional visual novel out there.
The Little Busters are eternal!
