Remember the Flowers was the first visual novel to make me cry. I can proudly say that Before You Depart is now the second visual novel to do so. A masterful, hauntingly beautiful conversation about life, death, and the point of it all. It doesn't provide any answers. Nothing ever can except for the moment when our time comes, but this is one of those pieces of media that can get the conversation going.
Please take a moment to tell someone you care about that you love them today. You never know when they'll be gone.
funnily enough same, tho with RtF i cried out of rage, here i just cried and cried yet i couldn't pin-point the feeling i just know it wasn't out of rage
Oh god... that was a heart breaking experience. I felt so bad for Mori the entire time. At least in the end, he got to be a little bit happy, even if just for a moment.
You guys did an amazing job, i am definitely gonna remember this one for a long time, and also start appreciating life a little bit more.
I absolutely love these types of short stories. Reminds me of the old stories I read when I was young. Exept yall managed to make it seem like a theatre play (srsly yall are killed it T-T).
The story brought back so many memories and feels of how I felt when i experienced theese stories in my youth. It was nice to see the reaper as an adorable silly ol goober~ (love the pants how they go up so far like in old stories) Makes me wanna get a hug of reassuance every time be4 I go to bed. I cant express how warm inside it made me feel to read this story of yours. To read a story similar to the famous ones in my youth with queer characters brings a tear to my eye.
Thank you all for making me feel all fuzzy on inside and bringing back nostalgia. Thank you for your hard work and hope you find fullfilment, happines and success in your works, present & future.
this was beautifull, i loved it also those departing words ughhhhhhhhhhhh ahhhhhh, thanks for so many emotions the art was beautifull , the narrative , everything , and all the belly rubs for best boy owo
