That was quite the emotional ride, I really love how the music amplified the homesick and nostalgic feeling. During my first year and first few months in college I also felt homesick (mostly because of stress and adjusting to the new environment) but I eventually adjusted well enough and have been doing good. However, I understand the feelings Sonne goes through quite well.
I also like how choatic everything is in the train room, it feels like Sonne wanted to surround himself with memorabilia of his life just to ground him because I feel like no matter how old or used to the travel you are, you can still get homesick and disoriented especially when you miss home.
I love reading through the conversation and learning tidbits of Sonne's travels, but I also love how his family was always the forethought of his mind when he talks because even if he talks about work, you can see the fondness he has for his husband and son. It really put a smile on my face.
that was a very emotional point and click style of VN. The music definitely helped drive the emotion, the art pretty, and the overall polish is undeniable.
