Saya no Uta is an Overrated Pile of Shock Value (SPOILERS)
Saya no Uta was one of the first visual novels I read. It's also the first visual novel I thought was overrated and first I straight up disliked. In this video I'll quickly go over why I don't think it deserves the weirdly high praise it continues to get.
Big Thanks to @thelocalweeb1016 for Editing!

Ayame from SukiSuki is my Favorite Wholesome Visual Novel Heroine
I normally don't do "themed" videos but Valentine's Day 2024 gave me a good reason to mini-rant on one of my favorite visual novel heroines: Ayame Himekami from SukiSuki / If You Love Me Then Say So, one of my favorite wholesome girls in visual novels.
If You Love Me Then Say So can currently only be bought on the MangaGamer store so I can't directly link it in the description.
Also known in Japan as Watashi ga Suki nara "Suki" tte Itte!
