A list of things to go through,TL:DR at end:
•VPN not needed to play, only to initiate initial game download. I did it via online free VPNs, Google's your friend.
•Really nice art, excellent visuals, adorable chibis and top-notch anime scenes.
•Excellent voice acting, if you have some Japanese knowledge you will find yourself listening to them and their really long lines. They brought best of the best VAs.
•Gameplay is mostly hands-off. You micromanage team selection and ultimate skill usage timing (called union burst).
•F2P friendly, a lot of jewels handed out. You can easily get the 45,000 needed for the guaranteed character for the princess festival gacha, which rolls out every 2-3 months and has the best characters in a limited pool. Occasional events with 8 days of free 10 pulls, you also get a lot of free pulls at start.
•Character design is excellent. Every girl has their own little quirk. While you have the stereotypical must include anime tropes, there are a lot of girls with interesting character designs, core values and relationships.
• Music is very hit or miss, but most of the time I am left satisfied, it usually gets the job done. The big plus is that the voice actors themselves sing their own events song, which I have a soft spot for.
•This is the only game I regularly spend money on. I buy the monthly card which costs around 5$/4€. It gives you a lot of value for the price you put in and I highly recommend it if you get hooked.
•Last but not least, the event stories are really well written. I can't comment on the main story but I have read every single event story since last summer, and every single one was emotionally charged. Grown ass man shedding tears and cracking up laughing within the same minute.
TL:DR 9.5/10 don't need VPN to play,F2P friendly,very diverse waifu selection, best voice actors in the business, compelling storytelling and anime scenes
This game makes me sad when I play it, knowing that such a great game is being left to rot in download libraries, just waiting for its eventual death. I am almost sure that no English version will be made, the JP player base alone is barely enough. They have idol groups for their voice actors as well, which perform a live event called HachiSama every year. My best experiences with this game are the moments where you increase your players meet and watch a walk off home run, get just the right card you need in Cinderella story or that feeling of euphoria as the gacha screen turns to a starry night with shooting stars, confirming your SSR. Hachinai has a special place in my heart and if you have the time and disposable income, I really hope you support this game
