Yeah, if you cut out the Toma parts, the route is more enjoyable but sadly, he is among the main parts of the route, which is a bit unfair since Shin didn't have that much of a spotlight in the Toma routes.

It boggles the mind that he is the most popular guy and the game was apologetic enough BEFORE it was released :')

I had big hopes for him because he seemed like the best choice so I'm looking forward to how his route goes
