I'm considering picking up another VN after a bit of a drought and I'm considering this. I notice the premise of a group of friends and such is very similar to Majikoi, which I'm planning on picking back up when the Chris route is finished. Considering that this is Key we are talking about, I'm sure this is more serious than Majikoi yet..the similarity kind of puts me off on it.
Basically, I want someone who has experienced both to tell me if I'm right in my thoughts. For the record, I'm also deciding between this and Higurashi.
If you want to go with story, go with Higurashi and wait until Refrain route for Little Busters is finished. The individual routes in Little Busters, for me, were rather disappointing, probably because Key's helmsman Jun Maeda didn't write them; he only wrote Refrain route (the "True Route")
However, if you want light-hearted fun along with many LOL moments, this is about as best as it can get. Maeda said he ran out of jokes to write on VNs after Little Busters, and it is indeed shown here.
