After playing ACE Academy, I immediately bought this game as I was so desperate for another look at this world and its characters. And I'll be honest, I was not disappointed. The character model of Kaori is amazing, and the choices that this game offers give you a plethora of content for its price (I did buy it on sale but thats not my point). Also, just pointing this out, this was made in 2018, and is better than 90% of current AAA games today.
This game is currently not available in steam. I had bought this a long time ago and completed it recently. This game provides an extension into the story if you had chosen Kaori as your partner. Playing this brought me nostalgia from the previous game and I enjoyed it well. The visuals are the same along with the narrative style. Nothing much has changed and thankfully not gotten worse too. There are no steam cards nor achievements but that's fine for a VN. If you enjoyed the previous title and have this in your library, you might have already completed it.

Just a short and sweet side story following the relationship with Kaori set after the events from the main game. Compared to Ace Academy that this story is based off, the animations, art style, and voice acting all showed major improvements. If you liked Kaori from the main game then you will like her after story.

A short yet as much sweet and entertaining story as the other visual novels from the studio. (And I went for Kaori on my first playthrough of Ace Academy, so...) Anyway, great job guys!
PixelFade knows how to write a story.
It's been a while since I've last played a game, and I just wanted to add my thoughts on this beloved little gem: Kaori: After Story is a short and Sweet Visual Novel where you play as a young blonde guy whom celebrates Christmas with her parents for the first time. This game was truly romantic and delightful. Unlike other visual novels that have you only looking at an avatar still, you get to see Kaori looking deep into your eyes, as well as expressing every emotion you would expect a human being like yourself to. This is truly a grounded romantic story, for your choices have realistic impacts. Usually, I myself pick the kindest and most thoughtful endings I can possibly pick, and got the wonderful happy ending, and I was very satisfied with that. I forget how much money I spent on this game, but it was worth every penny, as I spent a good time getting to know Kaori, and experiencing love from the MC's perspective. The only flaw I found with the game was the preference interface. The automatic scroller for the story wasn't present and i had to click with my mouse the whole time, which was kind of a bummer, because I would've enjoyed just relaxing while I looked deep into Kaori's eyes, but this is a bit of a small nitpick, as everything else about this game was pretty great. I remember buying this game about a year ago, and tried playing it, being bored to tears by the lack of player choice, but after having put it down for awhile, I can see the real value of the game is your romantic interactions with Kaori. Certainly, I am reminded of the days when I used to date, and how I needed to consider my words and how I said things so that I didn't hurt the feelings of the girl, as I fondly remember how sensitive all of the girls I was in relationships were. Kaori gets offended at you if you say the wrong things, and you can honestly mess up a good time by saying the wrong things, and you can pitch in to the teasing. Personally, I don't like teasing anyone, and this reflected in my playthrough, for I was kind and nice to Kaori, and wanted her to be happy and always smiling, and she was for the most part. Great Game, Very Reminiscent of real relationships, yet still romantic in a dreamy sort of fashion. Simply Enjoyable, thank you developers for such a slice of sweetness in this finely crafted visual novel.
A great addition to an already entertaining story from ace academy. It definitely gives an extra bonus if you chose the Kaori route in the previous game. I would definitely recommend this if you enjoyed ace academy. Its very humorous and has all the things you love about PixelFades creations; compelling story, fun humor, interactive options, and more. From a long time fan, Well done again PixelFade, keep up the good work.
