Here we have Mizoguchi Haruki, a newly-minted salaryman who is suffering from the freshman blues, and really doesn’t care about anyone around him. And over there we have Kamiake Minori, a world-weary young shrine maiden who, despite her giggly conversations with her school “friends”, really couldn’t care less about any of that. When taken separately, these two individuals are malcontents, square pegs struggling to fit into round holes, adrift and alone in a society where solidarity is all that matters. When taken together, though … well, suffice it to say that they can be pretty mean to each other.

I really liked May Sky. It was nothing revolutionary, but it did what it tried to do superbly. Its a simple story, but a really nice at that.
The art of the main heroine is not what one would call fantastic but, in this case, it is nonetheless a fantastic art choice. Her design fits in so perfectly with the atmosphere of the VN due to its simple design and complex depth; it parallels the easy outlook of the story that veils the complex human emotions underneath it. Consequently, it allows the story and the character's personality to become the focal point of the VN which the player can form a connection with. As the story progresses, the arts slowly draw the player into the unfolding bittersweet story of the VN that ultimately culminated in a satisfying, sweet ending.
TL;DR ====== This VN is definitely worthy of your time. I consider it a great work of literature.
