Notable past fears that he remembers include: being put in a ice-cold bath when he had a just a typical summer cold fever, and being wrapped in ''five'' blankets with the room furnace cranked up. Shuji even got a heatstroke for that! Even [[Anime/SailorMoon Minako Aino]] was not ''that'' bad!

The game is notable for the blatant CastOfExpies in which were based the main [[LoveInterest love intersets]]' design and in some cases, personality:
* Mio Suzuki, Kiyomi Shinfuji, and Reiko Sawamura are [[Manga/MagicKnightRayearth Hikaru, Umi, and Fuu.]]
* Ruri Shiromizu, Aki Hinagiku, Kyoko Kobayashi, and Makoto Shimazaki are [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Rei, Asuka, Misato, and Kensuke.]]
* Meimi Nakano and Seia Yoshida are [[Manga/KaitouSaintTail Meimi and Seira.]]
* Shoko Nishino is Shoko Inaba from the first ''Welcome to Pia Carrot''.
Shuji Yamagami is a sixteen (eighteen in the English translation)-year old japanese student starting his first year on the Kotobuki Preparatory School, where he meets nine girls over the course of the year. In standard Visual Novel fashion, the player is able to look, talk, and think about various choices, and these choices the player makes will determine who will be Shuji's girlfriend at the end of the year. As one of the earliest Visual Novels released outside of Japan, it was well received due to being a well written PornWithPlot game with a strong cast and story.
