No, its claim to fame is that JAST took seven years to translate Kimi to Kanojo to Kanojo no Koi and has a litigious policy regarding fantranslations, so the inferior DDLC hit the English gaming community first despite coming out four years later. (Admittedly, also that DDLC was free.)
(The time from when JAST C&Ded the fantranslation of Sumaga to releasing it is longer than the entire production cycle of Duke Nukem Forever. How much longer? Well, I dunno, because they still haven't yet, but I think we recently passed the 15-year mark.)
It is the #1 most popular (as opposed to most liked) OELVN on VNDB, but only by a tiny margin over Katawa Shoujo. Admittedly, it's a biased sample insofar as non-weebs who read DDLC wouldn't tend to visit VNDB.
(For anyone reading this who's confused: Katawa Shoujo is not actually Japanese, despite the Japanese title. It was made by 4chan, and originally in English, though they did translate it into Japanese afterward.)
