[Nintendo Switch] Him, the Smile & Bloom: A Review

From the collaboration of PQube, MintLip, EDIA, and Team Entertainment comes an enchanting new addition to the Otome visual novel genre, designed especially for the Nintendo Switch. In this review, we dive into “Him, the Smile & bloom” set in a quaint flower shop.

This game twists the typical visual novel dynamic by focusing on multiple narratives, putting you in the shoes of four distinct couples. Each couple’s journey centers around a particular flower, weaving it into their evolving relationships. As you explore Fill Flower, you’ll uncover the secrets and stories hidden within each bloom.

Visual novels, for the uninitiated, are narrative-driven experiences akin to reading an interactive book, rich in storylines, with the Otome subgenre focusing on romance led by a female protagonist. True to form, this title doesn’t disappoint, offering Japanese voiceovers that we’ve come to expect from a PQube release. If you’re fluent in Japanese, you’ll appreciate the full vocal depth. If not, gear up for an engaging reading endeavor!

Playing is straightforward, whether you prefer the tactile feel of controllers or the convenience of a touchscreen on either the Switch or its Lite variant. After a setting-the-stage prologue, you can leap into any story that catches your curiosity, choosing between Wataru Tori, Ginnosuke Sugawa, Tenya Minami, or Hokuto Ichige. Each male lead pairs with a charming female protagonist whose name you can customize or keep. Whether it’s Serina Aok, Ami Akashi, Miku Yukihira, or Fuuka Haruyosi, your choices drive the narrative twists.

Your in-game decisions mold the path to one of three unique endings per couple, rewarding replayability and adding up to twelve distinct conclusions. Achieving a couple’s best ending unlocks an engaging bonus story for further exploration.

One enjoyable feature is the Flower Book—an in-game journal documenting the flowers highlighted in each tale. It’s not just a visual delight but also an educational touch, offering details on each blossom and its narrative significance.

The stories align with the themes of specific flowers: Anemone, Tweedia, Mimosa, and Nandina, each lending their unique symbolism to the tales of romance and personal growth. Complementing the main game, there’s an additional scenario, “Flower Halloween Night,” for a small fee—which adds a festive flair and more bonding moments post-main game festivities.

For those who relish rich storytelling, “Him, the Smile & bloom” promises hours of romantic engagement with its twelve potential outcomes, a vibrant gallery, and a melodic score that’s sure to charm the Otome enthusiast.

Please note, this review reflects impressions based on a review copy provided by PQube for Nintendo Switch.
