ok.. which route of the game did you like the most? ... I would say that Saya's route was the best of all....if Kyo-Ani makes Little Busters! Anime.. they just have to use her route... >__< otherwise I'll kill all of them with a chainsaw!!!!!

also kurugaya's route was pretty cool too =] ohh.. and the refrain of course... XD

the most boring route was haruka's route? IMO ... it rly bored me..
though I'm a huge fan of Sasami... I didnt rly like her route... :/ how do I say it... it was lacking something... I dont know...

anywayz ... write which route did you liked the most
A True Man Never Dies...
Even When He's Killed!!!!

Kud's and Komari's routes.

I don't really like Komari's character much, but I love Break the Cutie-stories.

Kud is my second favorite character (second only to Rin, whose route I can't play with my poor Japanese), and her route might not make perfect sense but I like the whole theme of not fitting in anywhere ("Trying to be a gear that nobody needs").

Kurugaya's route seemed more like a plot device in order to clue you in about the "secret" so I'd say they did her a little of disservice.

And about Rin, you really can't take Rin 1,2 and Refrain separate. They're pretty much contiuations of each other and as the only scenarios written by Jun Maeda in LB, they're also on another level (it's easy to see he put everything he had into making them, perhaps that's why he decided to get a break from writing, he pretty much used everything he had on LB and AB). As a whole, they can't be beat.

But from the 5 heroines, Rin excluded since she's the main heroine, I'd say Mio's is the most complete one. It played with it's themes really well. If you take verything in it at face-value however you'll just think it's full of BS.

Refrain definitely, I burst into tears on that one...others never instilled that sort of reaction in me.

If I had to order them I would say it is...

1. Refrain
2. Rin2
3. Kud
4. Haruka
5. Mio
6. Kurugaya
7. Komari
8. Rin1

I absolutely adored this game, it's a crime that there hasnt been any talk of animating this as Rin's route being the main one like Nagisa from Clannad and having the other routes interspersed throughout would be amazing. Then Refrain could be used as an After Story style...I think we all know how well it would sell considering how popular the game is.

Excluding The Refrain And The Other 3 EX Paths.

1. Haruka.
2. Komari.
3. Yuiko.
4. Rin.
5. Nishizono.
6. Kud.

Kud Is At Worst Since Her Path Is A Total Mindfuck And Plotholes (The Last Dilemma That They Will Give You Doesn't Change Anything).


Also, Haruka And Komari Should Be A Tie For Me. I Really Love Both Their Paths. As For Rin's Case, It Has Also Full Of Plotholes
. Well, Maybe Playing The Refrain Will Remove My Confusion About Her Path But My Favorite Paths In Order Excludes The Refrain And The Connection Of It From The Other Paths Especially Rin's.

I didn't play the EX routes so I can't comment on those yet.
Haruka was one of my favorite characters in Little Busters, however, I didn't really enjoy her route.
Kurugaya's route was pretty nice which surprised me a little since I don't really enjoy those types of characters personalities.

My favorite routes were Refrain, Rin 2 and Rin 1. But for just regular character routes, I have to say Komari. By the time I got to Kurugaya I was dying to finish it so I could get to Refrain so I didn't care much (plus I didn't get the real ending yet anyway, replaying Refrain for the special choice at the end), I despise Mio and her BS and actually liked Midori better, Haruka was meh kind of boring, Kud was unbelievable the way the chains magically break (I didn't suspend my disbelief), and... yeah.

Least favorite was definitely Mio. She's a character who barely talks, always complains about sexual harassment from Riki, has no real personality, never smiles... Midori at least smiled and made her likable simply because of that.

The best are the ones when I cried:

1. Refrain-Rin2


2. Komari


3. Haruka


Mio and Kud's routes were fine, but too abstruse, too long and kinda boring. I lost interest half-way and endings didn't satisfy me wholly. And Kurugaya's route... it was really weak. Poor farfetched drama. It had a nice hint for Refrain, but that's only that.

Refrain hands down! and I guess also Rin 2 because that's when things started to get really good. The side routes were all good beside Kud's, I found Kud's route pretty boring. It's just that Rin 2-Refrain is what made Little Busters one of my all time favorite visual novels.

Since I was done playing the EX paths...

I would say Saya's path is the best path of all paths in LB. Even though I can't read Japanese text, I'm pretty good at reading the atmosphere.

My heart pained so much at Saya's true end which I thought to myself I was going to cry but I can't because I can't read the damn text. ;_;

So, pretty much this:


Saya > Refrain > Haruka > Komari > Kurugaya > Rin > Nishizono > Kud.


I'll give my opinions about Sasami and Kanata once their path is translated so I'm not going to rate them for the meantime. It's not that I can't read the atmosphere of their stories but Saya's path is the most understandable than the other 2 EX paths. Kanata's path is so hard to read its atmosphere which I can't really tell what's going on her path.

Talking about the regular version only (I haven't read the EX/ME routes), Refrain is the best route miles away. Never before I have cried so hard with a fictional work. ;_;

Also Kurugaya and Komari routes are pretty good, Yuto Tonokawa did a great job with the emotional impact.
Mio's route is more interesting for the themes. Rin's route is more like a prologue for Refrain. Haruka's route is somewhat filler-ish and Kud's... feels like a trainwreck IMO (though it can be better understood after you discover the Secret of The World in Refrain).

Best Route... Hands down = Refrain
But since its too op, 2nd place goes to Haruka Saigusa. the story is complicated and is actually sounds realistic
I like Kurugayas cuz I've alway been interested in groundhog's day and flipping worlds.
Kud would also get love, but i dislike her ending. I understand KEY uses a magic element, but I do not understand how she escapes and comes back to Japan at all even with magic >.>

Refrain has the best story I ever read/heard/seen or whatever you like.

Then, for me, come Mio > Haruka > Kurugaya > Rin > Kud > Komari.

I hope the EX or ME version will be translated soon, thus I could play Saya, Sasami and Kanata's routes.
