Pros & Considerations
Systems
The Grow Book converts crafted items into stat and skill unlocks, making alchemy inseparable from character progression
Characters
Classroom structure and free-time character events give the cast much more day-to-day interaction than most PS2 JRPGs
Music
Gust's battle themes are lively and memorable
Exploration
School assignments regularly send the party into compact gathering/dungeon areas with clear material goals
◇Consider
Pacing: The chapter/calendar structure can feel repetitive when assignments follow similar rhythms
