Ako's route in the other hand was slightly more enjoyable than Kukune's and less draggy and even though it included the same cheap deux ex machina the final result wasn't as bad.
Really? I was sorta looking forward to Kukune as the calm characters are usually quite likeable. I feel that the daily life interactions feel dragged out in general as in the non-couple moments.
The deus ex machina is apparently used on every route, then. It must be the VNs biggest flaw: The same method of resolving the drama, the same basic premise of background/flashback of Akito (varying only in the girl and the specific details).

At least, the "resolve making"-sound piece is quite nice + the shrine lady does - for me - an excellent job as a support character.
