Familiar daily life and unfamiliar appearances
The protagonist, Ichinose Ichitarou, is an ordinary student without clear goals, spending his daily life with his childhood friend Kujushin. The character relationships use the familiar starting point found in campus romance works, but the Ninefold Heart appears in insect form, forcing readers to understand their relationship between the closeness in dialogue and the unfamiliarity in the visuals.
Choices in a short romance
The publisher describes the game as a brief love story that, besides being relaxed, also touches on life-and-death decisions. The story revolves around the interactions between a human protagonist and a non-human object, blending strange appearances into familiar campus life.
Versions and performance
The Steam version is published by Sekai Project, with the English title explicitly featuring Kokonoe Kokoro, referring to the character Kuchushin. The bizarre creature designs are the main visual feature of this game; In everyday dialogue and character expressions, Jiuchong Xin still reveals the intimate and delicate side of love stories.
People and international distribution
Ichitarou Ichinose and Kokonoe Kokoro have known each other since childhood; their monster appearances remain unchanged, and the story is arranged to start with daily interactions. Developed by Nostalgia and published by Sekai Project on Steam, Japanese dubbing and text localization are recorded separately.
