RATING

:

8.8/10

The artbook is separated into four themes ~ Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. I am not familiar with the [Takumi-Kun] series so my rating is really based on the art alone. The colours are gentle and pretty, like watercolours. Also, since the art is nature-themed, you have these pretty leaves/flowers/snowflakes backgrounds. Incidentally, the art makes really good webpage layouts. Not that I'm encouraging it. ^^;; But I've seen them being made into layouts and the effect is REALLY good.
