I don't know what to think about this game.

It's short, but the story manages to deliver an emotional message. The visuals are cute and the music matches the atmosphere. The game costs nothing so there seems to be no downside. Objectively everything is fine and I recommend to try it out.

It's just that personally I don't like the message it delivers. It criticises the whole "otaku and their waifu" thing and lures otakus in with a cute anime girl and the whole visual novel setup only to destroy their worldview.
Personally I don't think it's something bad having a waifu or multiple waifus. Only a very small percentage of otakus really overdo it with getting in debt because they need to buy ever single merchadise of her as a proof of love or cooking for two persons and so on.
Some otakus like a specific anime girl, buy 1-2 figures of her, but still perfer 3D over 2D. Other otakus prefer having a virtual girlfriend because it's too hard finding a real girlfriend in a society that judges people from the get go and everyone who isn't part of the norm gets excluded. Also people who have huge problems with social interaction due to some mental illness can usually only get comfort and affection through virtual girlfriends.

Either way a 2D waifu will make someone happy and as long no one is suffering, in my opinion there's nothing wrong with having a virtual girlfriend. So in the end it doesn't really matter if she's real or not.
