Hiveswap Friendsim: Volume Six Review (Toon)

Volume Six is out and it's pretty good but has one big issue.
I kinda expected this volume to be complete garbage as the characters chosen were not exactly my favorites and the art is... ooo the art is bad, but i'll shit on that later, but anyways this volume was actually pretty neat. All three characters were written well enough and they actually had worldbuilding that didn't suck.
Kuprum is alright but is a pretty shit representation of a channel4 user, especially because he doesn't call you a soy boy. Fortunately, Folykl tags along with Kuprum and besides being the better of the two, they also further showcase how being a goldblood fucking sucks. Their relationship is pretty good and with they both work of each other making their route pretty good.
Then there's Lesbian Vriska, who was actually a lot less garbage than I expected. I mean Ardata is still the superior Vriska clone and original Vriska is still much better than both. Elwurd is just chill, they really aren't that interesting but they're not bad also like Kuprum they get a way better second character who is actually someone we've already seen, but they are only present for the second half which does bring the route down a bit.
This Volume might actually have been one of my favorites if not for the art. It's horrible and it brings down the entire thing. It's even made worse since they actually bring back a character from a previous volume who has much much better art. The Elwurd's music is pretty good because it's a Vriska theme but Kuprum and Folykl's kind of hurts my ears.
Overall this Volume suprised me with how bad the art was and how not bad the writing was.
Score: Elwurd is the worst Vriska/8
