This is a very good Visual Novel that I really enjoyed. It's probably the most ambitious Studio Elan thus far, about twice as long as their previous games. The main trio is sooo good I love them. Miho especially is a great protagonist. This is helped by the great voice cast, I was taken aback hearing Dottovu having such a role, but she delivered a great performance. The romances feels very genuine. I'm usually not into VN vith multiple endings/routes as I prefer having a True Ending, but there each of them felt sincere and had their own strenghts. While story is a Slice of Life, that does not mean it doesn't have strong emotional moments. I won't be original, but yeah the [spoiler] grave scene [/spoiler] broke me and is one of my favorite scenes I have ever read in a VN. Very good, very yuri, highly recommend.
Please Be Happy

About This Game
Born as a fox in the forest of Korea, Miho carries with her the memory of a traveler who showed her kindness and spoke of home. Now more human than fox, Miho has spent a long, long time searching for her person. She arrives by airship to Wellington, one of the jewels of the floating island of New Zealand.
Despite her years spent observing humans, she still has a lot to learn about their culture and society. She's made a living so far as a thief, her heightened senses allowing her to easily take advantage of people. She's also seen a lot of the worst of what mankind has to offer.
It's only after meeting Juliet, the owner of a small library, and Aspen, an aspiring novelist, that Miho starts to understand what kindness is, and that there's more than just the bad stuff when it comes to people.
Miho's earliest memories are of her time as a fox, and the kind human she met back then. Now more than just a fox, she's spent her life searching for that person. Her journey has brought her to a new life in Wellington, New Zealand.
She changes her name every time she goes to a new country. Her previous names include Gumi, Migu, and Mimi.

User Reviews
Light, fluffy and very very enjoyable! Brought me to tears right when it meant to and I ended up oscillating between never having enough and having to play through in short bursts because of how sweet it was.
The fluffiest, comfiest vn I've read, super super cute! The story takes its time but if you enjoy the vibes it's such a wonderful, low stakes journey. Miho is so absolutely precious and the two interests are both lovely and charming. Loved the time I spent in Wellington <3
