Wow, what an emotional rollercoaster ride I had. I can't even find the words to describe the feelings I experienced while reading this VN and afterward.
It took me quite a while to read, as it was difficult to process the events that unfolded at the beginning. But as I progressed through the story, I began to be captivated by this tragic story, which constantly trampled on the crumbs of happiness and joy the characters had garnered.
Several times throughout the story, my heart sank at the twists and turns of this novella. It was like someone extremely thirsty was offered a glass of water, only to have it shatter before they could even wet their lips.
I was left with mixed feelings about the ending – as if everything could have been better if the characters had made different choices. But perhaps, instead of looking back and lamenting why things turned out the way they did, it's better to pull yourself together, get up off your knees, and move forward to ensure that this never happens again.
Overall, I enjoyed the novella. The characters drew me in, the plot, and the intensity of the emotions kept me reading until the end, and the atmosphere, music, and graphics allowed me to fully experience the full range of emotions the characters experienced. Frankly, I'm not a sports fan, but in this VN, I perhaps understood what fans feel when they watch sports, rooting for their teams and players, lamenting their losses, and cheering them on wildly when they strive for victory.
Thank you to everyone who worked on and supported this novella for finally finishing it and bringing me and many others such a storm of emotions. I'm so glad this project has reached its final stage, and now everyone, like me, can immerse themselves in this universe of steel fists and fragile souls, steeped in the atmosphere of a struggle not so much with other people as with the demons within oneself.
Thank you again for this VN. I hope my review helps attract even more people to this novel.
I really enjoyed your novel. It was very clear that you put your heart into it and it left me with more positive mindset! Even though I don't read that much, I always loved reading it even though I was a little upset at the end that it ended. So thank you for giving us the chance to read it for free!
It's actually a tad shorter than I expected, but the ending felt perfect. Everything came to a conclusion, and ended with a sweet conclusion that had multiple things I didn't at all expect.
Do any of y'all have any information concerning this author's previous VN Route 100? Undefeated is very good and I am very interested in information surrounding the previous game. However very little information about the game exists outside some information on VNDB and the wayback machine
zander have the same shitty personality as me and i hate every second of it.
im trying to be a better person and i actually accomplished it, after reading this vn i actually realized theres someone out there whos ahve to struggle like this and i hope we all can get thru this together turn into the best version of us.
all i wanted to say is thank you so much for making this vn, i mean it.
I have my DM’s open but I’m not getting the verification message for the discord and instead of getting the message I get immediately booted out of the server with nothing appearing in my DM’s
It's the best VN ever! The way the story dives deep into emotional issues is just brilliant. It doesn’t shy away from the tough stuff. Instead, it embraces it. You end up going on this rollercoaster of feelings, and when a character hits rock bottom, you can’t help but feel that gut punch. It reflects many things in this world of struggle. Thank you so much for creating such a profound and meaningful story. Definitely waiting to follow the next story!
ive decided its my prerogative to leave comments under art that moves and wowzer bowzer this shit is tuff, [spoilered comment]
MMA fighting and ace-gay dragon rep is genuinely so awesome.i was so endeared to all the characters at the end i just wanted them to be happy and fulfilled. they each remind/ed me of myself at different times when i was/am at my worse; the tension of each fight tightened around me like a verbal noose yet i kept dancing on the edge of my chair...until the slack was completely cut by the coolest lads coming together with the power of friendship to defeat the forces of hatred. hahah that sounds tacky but it was very genuine and sincere, the ending felt earned and i got wholesome poly gay[and gayace] furry :]. GET THOSE FIGHTERS UNIONIZED
When I got into this I wasn't expecting messages about self-love and found family. There were many tears. I wish I could forget everything and read it again. Thank you to everyone who worked on this.
This was great. I absolutely Love a story that makes me change my perspective on characters so strongly and it wasn't just the obvious character i have in mind when i say that.
When I first heard about this project I didnt know what to expect other than fighting being a big part of it. After meaning to read it for so long and now having done so, wow. PLEASE READ IT IF YOU HAVENT. I will share a few thoughts as a personal send off and compliments to the chef :> Where do I begin?
Early on they are very flawed and a lot of them come across like dicks, but that's why their development shines so much better. The hook for the whole story is set up so early that the resolution of it at the end of the story is a bitter sweet win. It was a perfect way to start off the narrative. And while the cast is small with only a handful of important characters, they all get so much love and attention and work incredibly well of each other, that I feel like any more would have been distracting.
The writing of the day to day life, the training, fighting and many of the heart to hearts were written so well that I got immersed in the world. Fight days were the highlights, with the action being clear with mostly words and few visuals. While the mundane days leading up to it had drama and surprises around every corner. I never knew what to expect, sometimes it was silly with lighthearted moments thanks to Redline, Bucky and Drayden. Other times members of FANG as well as each interaction with Bruce left an uneasy air as well as a little bit of mystery? It was great.
This may not be true for everyone, but it felt nice being able to relate to a lot of the personal issues the cast was facing. (Not to spoil anything, but having a character be asexual made me jump out of my chair. Thank you for the representation I often feel missing in VNs ;v;)
When it comes to the late half of the story had me at the edge of my seat. The intensity of the conflicts increased with each passing month in the story, I was scared of what it all builds up to. I grew so attached to the characters that I was rooting for them like they close friends I desperately needed to succeed in order to know peace. Although the story's end is satisfying, I adore its world and main cast so much, that it makes me wish there was more. These 3 grown goobers and their spiritual fathers stole my heart haha!
All this to say I loved it. It's been on my mind ever since, it resonated strongly with me and I cannot emphasize how well it's doing what it set out to do. Excited for future projects!!!
(I dont write reviews like ever so I hope my ramblings make sense haha)

I have a Question to ask... Is this visual novel going to continue? I like the game, would like to have more of this if there is more!
#1 for FVNs that have you yelling "APOLOGISE" at the screen the most
It's actually a tad shorter than I expected, but the ending felt perfect. Everything came to a conclusion, and ended with a sweet conclusion that had multiple things I didn't at all expect.
10/10, one of the best VNs I've ever read.

Is this game going to be continued?
Or is there going to be a new one but the same characters for Undefeated?
Also great game!
10/10

Absolutely wonderful experience reading this VN, definitely got me on the verge of tears several times, highly recommended.
PS. I'd kill for Redline
