Norn9 ノルン+ノネット: Kagami Itsuki (review+walkthrough)
May 30, 2014 at 4:15 am | Posted in Norn9 ノルン+ノネット, Otome Games | 3 CommentsTags: Otomate, Yusa Kouji
Onto the other guy in the Sakuya-Mikoto-Itsuki love triangle! This time, it’s Itsuki, the playful guy who is good with words. I was really looking forward to playing his route because I liked his personality in the character introductions and he is voiced by Yusa Kouji (ooh yeah sexy time (*`▽´)_旦), and good thing I wasn’t disappointed; I loved this route!
I tried to make this post spoiler-free, and I think I succeeded in doing so this time. But I don’t know other people’s definition of “spoiler” so still, read at your own risk! ・´∀`・)
Personality:
A reverse harem line-up isn’t complete without a skirt chaser, so Norn9 has Itsuki to fill in that role! Itsuki loves dem ladies and he is really good with words, and he usually uses it when talking to Mikoto (to whom he’s got the hots for XD), but leave it to Mikoto to block his advances – and when I say “block”, I mean “block with a magic barrier”!
Being close friends with Heishi, Itsuki is also a frivolous guy who loves drinking sake and playing cards… well the type guy who doesn’t take things too seriously. But don’t be deceived because… he’s got some serious moments too…? Does he? Really…? Even I, am not sure! XD
I looove Itsuki’s personality! Yep, he’s the type of guy that will really catch my interest at first meeting. I thought I wouldn’t get my usual genki-guy in Norn9 because I didn’t really like Heishi but behold! I had my playful guy in the form Itsuki (✧≖‿ゝ≖). He’s always teasing Mikoto (and sometimes the other girls too) and fufufufu (๑´ლ`๑) he’s good at it. Itsuki is really good with words I love how he can say the best things in different situations.
Route:
A playful guy + a strong heroine = one good route! Unfortunately osananajimi Sakuya has to ruin some things but meh whataver, he’s needed in the plot anyway (`∀´)Ψ.
Route story-wise, Itsuki’s route isn’t as good as Akito’s but I still liked it, probably because I really loved Itsuki’s personality, it makes up for the most of it. I was laughing hard during most of the entire route because Itsuki’s comments and lines are just so awesome I actually want to translate all of his lines and post them here XD. I told you, he IS good with words (´▽`)=
And there’s also Mikoto. Gosh Mikoto. I really didn’t like her in Sakuya’s route but she was so impressive in Itsuki’s route. (Potential spoilers alert!) Itsuki isn’t perfect and he has this flaw that I was ranting about during half of the route but guess what Mikoto did? She confronted Itsuki straight out and told him the things I MYSELF want to say! It’s like she took every word I want to say and told it to Itsuki XD (you go girl!). Compared to Nanami and Koharu, who both had a moment that they ran away from their guys (Senri, Akito, Heishi), in this route, it was Mikoto herself who went to Itsuki to talk about misunderstandings. I love this girl Mikoto!
As for the fluffy-otome-feels-moments, there were enough of them in this route. Chapter 2 and all the otome feels already? Yes please! XD. I wanted more ichaicha moments (hurhur (≧∇≦)) but I guess I have to wait for the fandisk for that. (And cue Sano’s route in Hakuoki, the only route with an implied ***. Hurhur XD. Oh, they’re both voiced by Yusa Kouji!).
Character voice: Yusa Kouji
Oh sht one of my seiyuu biases!
Hands down, among the five routes I have already played, Itsuki had the best voice acting. Yusa Kouji is awesome yo. That nice voice aside, every scene was very well acted. Playful? Lonely? Irritated? Sexy time? I know all the other voice actors can do that but how Yusa Kouji acted on Itsuki’s character was just so good. Very well done.
Heart meter: ♥♥♥♥.5
(Will play Kakeru’s route next! Oh yeah Kaji Yuuki!♥)
