I am sure that the common consensus for anime games is "This'll die in a month when the next anime game takes its place." I really hope that this does not hold true for SCARLET NEXUS. At the time of writing this, I have completed Yuito's story and mid-playthrough in Kasane's. A quick shoutout to my friends for getting me this game. This review will have absolutely no spoilers so you guys can experience this for yourselves. I highly recommend it.

The combat is one of the strongest aspects of this game. Kasane and Yuito fight with different styles, making your second playthough that more interesting. Combat is fast, and can be an absolute power trip assuming you use the environment to destroy all in your way properly. Fighting other humans is a much bigger challenge that put that power trip to a halt and even have their own "OH ♥♥♥♥" moments too.

The graphics and music is a very underappreciated aspect. I am NOT a good photographer or musician. There is something about this game that brings the best of the music and the environment to bring them together and create some absolutely beautiful areas. Heino Mountain is one such example, I sat on the peak of that mountain, watching the snow drift by while the stunning OST took me away. I have never done this for any other game. The character design is very cool and I really love the hood/mask design.

The characters are really great too. Its going to be hard to tell how I love them without spoiling them, but I will try. Just when you think that a character is 1 dimensional, they expose what makes them them. Luka is best boy. Fight me. There are bonding episodes too, I went in thinking it would become a dating sim, but it was not. It helped you understand each of the characters in a funny/wholesome event that is entirely optional.

Overall, this is my favorite game in my library. While most anime games die a month or two after their release to the steam page, this one will live in my heart and mind for quite a while. Thanks for reading. <3
