I think I agree with a lot of Vexx's comments about the routes. I have somewhat different opinions of the girls themselves though: I found Kaoru bland but think that Haruka is a fantastic character. I mostly agree on Sae being adorable but bland... you need to make an effort to develop shy girls to have them work well as characters and this show didn't. Ai actually struck me as pretty interesting: she's a quiet but not shy version of the playful, teasing type. And to top it off, she's the main character's junior, which is rare for the teasing type. There's some sort of moe appeal to a cute junior having a silent laugh at her boyfriend's expense. So far I'd probably rank Haruka > Ai > Sae (Okay, I'll admit it, I'm weak to her type...) > Kaoru for the girls and Haruka > Ai > Kaorui > Sae for the routes.
BTW, I'm disappointed by the fact there won't be a Hibiki route.
