Which Bath for Haru?
This is the first chapter of a Year of Springs and is free to play. It is a visual novel about a Japanese trans woman who is invited to go to an onsen with her friends and her struggles of navigating the gender-segregated baths, presented in a charming art style reminiscent of a children's picture book.
I recommend this game …

I recommend this game to those looking to experience diverse perspectives and queer voices.
DLC Review
- Art Collection
A 15-page art book featuring the characters, backgrounds, and other in-game assets. The character sections feature in-character interviews for more insight on their personalities. I think it's worth it for the price especially considering how adorable the game's art style is and provides an additional way to support the developers beyond purchasing the full a Year of Springs game.
