I'm curious to see what route people prefer from the novel.

For me I personally like Moon route.

After moon route Shizuru route is my favorite heroine route

I'd say shizuru's route is my favourite. That last scene with the song 'love letter'... man, that was something else. The terra route closely follows. The only reason it isn't my favourite is simply because I wasn't a fan of the ending.

I remember that on my 1st playthrough of Rewrite the last route (at least when it came to the girls) I finished before Moon and Terra, was Akane's route. And although I like Lucia the best I loved Akane's route, and till this day it's my favorite of them all.

I loved each and every route but I'll choose Kotori since it was my first route and it's likely going to need the vote.

For me, it's

Shizuru > Chihaya > Moon > Kotori > Akane > Lucia > Terra

As a character, I liked Shizuru the best, and the whole flashback nature of the route was executed well, considering Shizuru's powers. The ending was downright beautiful.
Chihaya's route was fun and it made Sakuya into an amazing character.
Moon was boring but the last half an hour or so was just amazing
The rest were great, I'd give all of them at least an 8/10, but these are just my favorites.

Lucia >= Chihaya >= Akane > Moon and Terra(I don't think they should be separated) > Shizuru > Kotori.

Probably Moon/Terra > Akane > Kotori > Lucia > Shizuru > Chihaya

They each have their strengths and weaknesses though. I didn't think any route was perfect (nor were any downright awful), but taken as a whole, the game is quite strong.

Moon > Akane > Terra > Kotori > Lucia = Shizuru > Chihaya

Rewrite's character routes really vary in quality imo, probably due to how different the writers that were working on it are. If it weren't for the great characters and the amazing common route, I'd actually consider Rewrite to be a little on the mediocre side although Moon, Akane and Terra's route are all 9/10.

Terra, Moon, Lucia, and Akane's routes were well done, even though they had their weak points. The rest were alright.

Good question... it's normally always the True route in VNs but Rewrite is a special case

Akane, Chihaya, Lucia or Terra would be my pick, not sure which one though

Think Akane's is the most interesting overall. Chihaya's is the most fun though, albeit hardly the best written one

Even though Shizuru's route started REALLY well in the common route territory, but later on it got a bit boring.

I like you. That was one of my favorite scenes too and I would really like to see that animated. Kotori was my first route and that just broke me down in tears lol. The voice acting is 10/10. You know shit is getting so serious in the VN from then on.

LUCIA. That was the best character route I've ever read in a VN. Simply perfect, also had the best romance I've ever seen in any piece of fiction and the best girl in the whole planet. All the other routes are very good, though, except Terra, that managed to ruin what was supposed to be a perfect VN. Seriously, I think the only reason I rate it lower than 9 is Terra.

My ranking would be: Lucia>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Shizuru>Akane>Chihaya>Moon>Kotori>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Terra.

I like Moon the best.

I think Kotori's story was good as an introduction, and I liked what that route was going for.

Despised Chihaya's route.

Shizuru's story felt all over the place.

I liked the first half of Lucia's route, but I had issues with the second half.

I'm not a big fan of Akane's route. Probably due to my lack of interest in political structure in Gaia. The route had its issues.

I think I had one issue with Terra.

I think the best parts of Rewrite is when Kotarou is the central focus.

I loved all of the routes except Moon, Terra, Akane, and Kotori. Pretty much everything after the character routes destroyed the visual novel for me. It was so great with suspense, perfect music, great characters, and something different for once. Then along came the Moon and Terra routes and everything went down the drain harder than Little Busters! did when J.C. Staff "animated" it. I just hope that a better studio handles Rewrite, as complex as this will be.

Yeah man, definitely. I re-read some parts after finishing Terra a few days ago. (I took a break for a few months after finishing Akane's route. After the anime was announced, I finished Moon and Terra) and man, it still made me cry like a baby. ;_;

That scene is why Kotori's route is the most nostalgic for me(well that and Pero T_T ). If it's directed well enough, it'll absolutely kill me animated.

Wow, Lucia is definitely winning this poll.
Her route's written by Ryukishi07 and I thought his signature writing style was VERY apparent, sometimes even annoyingly so. Having read most of R07's other works, Lucia's route wasn't that surprising.
Such as the fact that there are multiple scenes that
And also the numerous amount of periods (................) in his writing was there.

I really love R07's works, but I sometimes think he's kind of a one trick pony. I expected to like Lucia's route more, but I was eventually kind of disappointed.
I did love the ending though.

OPPAI ROUTE DEF
...Honestly, if I were to pick, if solely for the masterful ending, Shizuru's, for the general feel, Akane's.

I seriously don't get the appreciation for Lucia's route, I liked the first half of it a lot, but the latter half of her route just dragged on... although like above poster mentioned, maybe Ryukishi07 being the writer made me overextend my expectations for it a bit...

After having just read through the whole visual novel a few days ago (Oppai Ending included), I'd go with Akane's.

The worst ending (and 2nd half) had to be Terra's though. It was just so underwhelming.

I find it difficult to decide between Kotori and Lucia's route, In general I feel that Lucia's one is more complete, and I loved the romance in there, but Kotori's being the first I played, made me enjoy it so much, and I got the most feels in this route.
However, this talking about character routes, overall I liked Moon the most.

I like Chihaya route because I liked her from being trolled all the time.
And Sakuya who trolls the troll had lot of screentime as well.

Kotori route comes second...

My vote goes to Akane although Kotori is a very close second. Lucia is a close third as while it felt as if she had the most 'complete' route I couldn't enjoy it as much as I could have as it took me a while to warm up to her as a character for some reason.

Chihaya's for me due to having the happiest ending and kotarou remain the same than what he is in the common route, plus sakuya is just plain awesome

The thing that I disliked most about Moon and Terra was that they seemed to exist solely for the purpose of giving Kagari a reason to exist. That in itself isn't a bad thing but I just didn't like the fact that she didn't seem to have many major appearances beforehand which kind of threw it all off for me.

Basically what I'm trying to say is that it seemed like at least part of what happened during those two routes was a last minute effort to give Kagari a purpose as she didn't really matter much beforehand despite being so important to the central story itself.

That's all just how I feel about it though.
