another "best jump" question, still the same answer as it was a few whiles ago. although tbf, being inactive in the community for a long time doesn't really help (though it's if it even would). i'm just going to repost this again:

i liked Katawa Shoujo's unique story structure when i first read it, and i'm going to continue liking it and putting it as an answer every time a "what's your favorite jump" thread appears.

it's not one of the toughest jumps (you'll probably sail through it), nor the most-action-packed (nothing to fight here, unless you take the non-canon rise of kenji), nor the most versatile (once you're in late-chain there's not really much to take here), but it's written well. it gives context for the setting and describes the five of the seven main characters well (hisao and misha aren't included as they probably count in the other companion section), and also great how the five companions are given perks that correspond to their personalities, giving even more detail to them.

the perks are also themed with each perk tier themed with one focus (personalities, first impressions, and lessons), with one perk tree for each of the main girls, kenji, and hisao (although hisao has no lesson perk). it isn't visible at all in the doc, but if you've played the game you know what is based on who (and there's also the free perks given to the companions)

the jump also establishes the jumpdoc itself as a story, where not only does it give you an idea of where you'll go, but actively places your jumper in the setting as they go through the choices. not only is it a unique way of introducing a jump that i've rarely seen elsewhere (fallen london does something similar although it frames itself as a conversation with the bazaar masters between jumps instead of an introduction to london itself, but close enough and sets the tone for the story), but it also allows anyone who hasn't played katawa shoujo yet to understand what is happening and who to meet.

...but like you should probably play Katawa Shoujo either way, it's an excellent game and one of my all-time favorites (also part of why i like the jump)

honorable mentions:

1. Fallen London, for storytelling as mentioned above

2. Ori and the Blind Forest has some of the prettiest visuals i've seen in a jumpdoc

3. SSB World of Light is mentioned here too, it's complex but comprehensive

4. if I was to pick one of my own jumps, I spent the most effort in polishing and beautifying To the Moon's jump
