The second game is along the same lines as the first. The box it comes in is significantly thicker and heavier, but the game still leaves much to be desired. I took a clue and read through the game rather than wait for them to voice it out. I'm a slow Japanese reader, but still can read faster than their speaking. It only took me half the time to finish the two games, so 1 hour instead of 2.

The music used in the game sounds like it's from season 1, but maybe it has some from season two. There were moments in the game I felt like I was watching the anime again because it seemed so familiar (this is actually a rag on the low quality pan and scan animes that are being produced).

First edition includes 8 post cards, and a pretty rugged and heavy picture frame with Aoi picture inside it. Like the first volume, this also includes various wallpapers and 5 screensavers (just slideshows).

Rating: 2/4

3. 秋 (Fall): Tina and the photo club are going to Kyoto to take pictures of the fall leaves and drags the other members, Kaoru and Taeko along. Eventually everyone in the Sakuraba household goes on this day trip. After spending a day in the city where Kaoru gets split up from his group and ends with Tina alone, they head towards the [Kiyomizu Shinre | Arashi Mountain]. Tina takes some pictures with her photographer's camera as well as her polaroid. After she's finished, they head back to the train station where she shows them the polaroids. The pictures are all candid shots of the group. As they're about to leave, she gives Aoi a candid picture of her and Kaoru. Aoi cherishes the picture.

4. 冬 (Winter): The gang is in Hokkaido for the annual Snow Festival. Before the evening though, they do some activities. They go [skiing | to a (famous?) church]. On the skiing story, Kaoru teaches Aoi how to ski and the church story has Mayu living out her dream being a bride. They go the festival and see the various scultures on display and come back to a fancy hotel where they take a bath in the outdoor hot springs. Kaoru hears Tina doing her usually funny business with the other girls. They fly home the next day. At the mansion after they all go to their respective rooms, Aoi comes knocking on Kaoru's door and tells him that she's a bit envious of Mayu, at least during the vacation.
