Spoiler for Comparison to Mashiro-iro Symphony:
As for this show... I guess I may need to watch the show again from start to finish to focus on how the romance is developed and analyse it further. For now, I think a lot of the issue is that they tried to hold back for so long. For many reasons, I would have preferred the romance to start earlier, even though I see why they put it off.

ep.11
drama & conspiracy mix together is really uh oh we're in trouble. so give tomoya 2.0 being explain & reasons that close eyes pres need him run for pres cause to keep kana in hospital all safe & hidden give conspiracy going on. while chisato & mifuyu alone see that chisato still having probs give cause using tomoya 2.0 as replace for daiki yet enough is enough so plan show body scar yet they both patch-up all fine. hearing conspiracy tomoya 2.0 seem like either play their game or pay the price so cue call michiru where kana & give reason you stink on close eyes pres. nurse michuru inject shot a guard, rescue kana, play harmonica cue kana awake & everyone make-up all fine with chisato eat chocolate. look all good with pretend wedding with chisato & tomoya 2.0 til "wedding catchers" kidnap chisato cue big to be continued...

Yeah, I'm guessing so, given that there was some beach scene promo art. With the way things are setup here, whatever relationship he has won't be so established that he can't spend some time with all the heroines.

In a way I get the same feeling here, I mean they were quite successful in making me want to play the game to majorly see Satsuki's route and that seems to me to be their goal since the beginning, if it wasn't their goal I don't think they would be marketing Satsuki in the way they are doing now. Please someone correct me if I am wrog but did in the past this kind of "trend" that Mashiro showed and now a bit similar with this series existed before? I mean feels like their goal is to just at least hit the break even point and profit with the game sales and the anime overal is just to make the majority of the viewers to desire to play the game, in this case by having the anime focus on the least desirable girl (or making her looks like it) I don't think the more old school series like Clannad or Shuffle had a game with a release date near their anime series and their profit would be from the actual sales of the anime. |

You can see the trainwreck coming from a mile off. There's simply too much material and plot developments, and only One Cour worth of time to try to make some sense of them all. Honestly speaking, I'm amazed that Chocolate held out to the 11th Episode. Up till Episode 10, the plot was still in a state of coherence, quite a feat if you consider just how much they are trying to squash into One Cour.

Eventhough the mock wedding was essentially the same as in the game, the anime version lacked the same impact because it was shortened and it gave not enough time to set it up seeing how hectic this episode was.
Spoiler for got bored and recorded that wedding scene while rereading it. Also it's pointless to watch this video if you can't understand japanese:

I'd prefer to see the story about Kana and Mouri. Really.
And too bad the VN is untranslated cause I like the plot here but I don't like Chisato and a lot of parts of the story were shown to us just briefly. |

So finally the background of the whole election thing is revealed.
Who knew there would so many intrigue behind the scenes. Yuuki seems to be having all kinds of problems... Chisato was guilt tripping herself an awful lot this time. Well, Yuuki - Chisato relationship is pretty unique and interesting. At least something good came from the whole ordeal ^^ Wonder how things will be moving forward now...

I see a lot of comparisons to Mashiro-iro, I'm not really understanding why this show even needs to be brought up to compare with Koichoco. The pacing and development in Mashiro-iro was done much better although I admit the bath scene was going too far to confuse people which girl the protag is going for (I preferred Angelina btw). Other than that, everything was portrayed in a believable fashion unlike Koichoco which felt forced many times with a lack of proper explanation (having a poor flow of story telling).
Using anidb I looked up some eroge anime adaptions that are 12-13 eps long. Now I've seen more than these shows but the setting is a bit different for other eroge adaptions and some I just don't remember as clearly on how the plot progresses. I obviously can't go into the specifics because that would be spoiling people that haven't seen a particular show, so I will speak in general and in code. First to get it out of the way since it was mentioned in an earlier post by someone. - Yosuga no Sora This adaption had each heroine have their own story just like Amagami, problem with using this method for koichoco is seeing a repetition of the election (even though there are differences). - Hoshizora e kakaru hashi - Lamune - Otome wa boku ni koishiteru - Yoake mae yori ruriiro na: Crescent Love When I think about it... Hoshizora, had a very similar way of handling who the protag would end up with like Koichoco. It was not clear but there were many hints. I'm not sure what I could make of this but I thought I should throw it out there for people to discuss. But imo, this should be the show that Koichoco is compared to instead of Mashiro-iro. However to be clear, I do feel the bath scene in Mashiro-iro to be a similar way of handling how far in the relationship the protag has gotten with that paticular girl to be comparable with Satsuki in Koichoco. Now Otome wa boku kinda surprised me. The only reason I can accept the ending is because my favorite girl got picked. _However I never saw it coming!_ There were hints here and there but, _that's the same for every other girl!_ I will admit, for this show, I'm pretty darn biased. WARNING: Even speaking in general, I still consider reading about Lamune and Yoake a spoiler, read at your own risk. Spoiler for Lamune and Yoake:

I was wondering the same thing? Why like Mashiro-iro? Who is the main heroine here? It's Chisato.
Spoiler for Koichoco to Mashiro Comparison:
Chisato maybe dumb, helpless, psychotic or whatever you want to throw to her... but you can't deny the facts that already been laid in the beginning.. this no no game... it has to have one route to follow... and its Chisato's, it's the horrible truth. |

It's basically as Snuffle alluded to above:
Spoiler for Comparison to Mashiro-iro Symphony:
Argh... I can't believe how many people believe this. *sigh...* Apparently an argument that will never be won with some people...
