Actually, can I just gush about Akatsuki for a moment? I know it's not useful feedback, since it's rather personal, but I feel like I need to get it off my chest.
I don't this she could be any more up my alley even if you consulted me personally.
I already have a weak spot for girls who are quiet and not very expressive, and with her the contrast between that and between her actions and how she goes along with the lewd stuff and her catgirl role is just perfect.
It's impossible to figure out what she is thinking most of the time and she seems stoic even about lewd things, but then we get the rare blush... Just great.
The fact she got the catgirl role is of course also a big plus, though that's not saying much since who doesn't like catgirls. Although I like how this means we got a less stereotypical catgirl (which in general tend to be rather energetic and way more forward, imo?) which is still very cat-like in many aspects. She mostly does what she wants, isn't overly affectionate but will still get on your lap whenever possible. I've known cats like that.
And then there are the h-scenes with her. I'm a rather weird person who prefers blowjob scenes to sex scenes (especially pov) in games like this, so the fact that she so far has somewhat of an oral focus is just perfect. Not that I would mind some sex scenes, but I hope there will be plenty of blowjob ones with her.
And this all combines with the fact that she also doesn't have anything I dislike. Often there are characters that I like mostly, but there is some one thing that's bothering me, but with here so far there is nothing like that. Of course there is a small chance this changes as story develops, but I hope it won't.
Oh and of course she is cute as hell, but your models are great in general so that's a given.
So anyway, rant over. Keep up the good work.
