Guess it's a good time to bump this thread. For me so far:
Ai's arc > Kaoru's arc = Haruka's arc >>>>> Sae's arc
Incidentally, that's how I would rank the characters as well. It's no coincidence, my liking for a particular girl obviously influcences my enjoyment of her arc. Even so, I think the storytelling in Ai's arc was a bit more solid than in the others. The progression felt more natural and there were less "odd" moments, even if the arc was completely devoid of it. I'm a bit saddened the kiss fetish has disappeared after Kaoru's arc though, it used to be something fun to look forward to.
As for Rihoko's arc, I have a feeling it'll rank just below Ai's.
