Yeah the biggest hook for me early doors was it was the Sensei, his family, his specific class of students plus a small smattering of random neighbours and friends of the family. Still a sizable cast but a lot of development was given to the characters so whilst you've barely seen say Miku or Neko at all in the entire third week you know who they are and actually a good bit of detail on them from time spent with them in past episodes but most of the new ones - without cheating now answer us this random Ecchi Sensei fans...I completely understand, and it is true, some folks just will not care at all if the initial premise in the first year of development, just devolves... Not all, but I'm sure plenty of folks out there just skip through the story anyway, just to get to the erotic content...
Really, the reason so many folks are buggered about how things are going in the recent year, is that this VN seems to be losing some of it's focus... The first week of in-game content, even though it did have a lot of characters, still had plenty of focused content on most of the primary characters... It showed a lot of promise in how it's story progressed, how it was told, how meaningful it felt with many of the characters... But with the advent of so many new characters, and the latest content only briefly involving a minor amount of story about the characters people fell in love with from Week 1... It feels like this project has in a sense changed gears... Stretching out the story lines for the original characters, into thin wafers, while force feeding us a bunch of other characters that don't feel as well developed as the originals... I would have to hazard a guess that most were never intended to be in the story, and are basically just being added to make some quick cash...
Perhaps some folks want that, and could really care less about the story, or could care less about any promise that first week had... I just think it's a shame the developers are deciding to take what might have been a great story and choosing to instead just milk the project through the selling of custom content voting rights, personalized custom characters, and other money making gimmicks... With the futures only real unique premise of this project being a highly lengthy future of pointless characters thrown at the audience, some occasional short erotic content, a ever thinning main story, and very little else... If it continues like that, eventually the story telling will just become this chaotic mess...
Only reason I looked past the lower quality visuals is because I thought the story in Week 1 was fun and interesting... Week 2's visuals have actually degraded slightly from week 1's visuals, along with the thinning story lines...
I don't hate this VN... But I do feel sorry for what I'm beginning to see happening in both the story telling and the lack of focus... And it shouldn't matter if it's a pirated copy or not... The point of this thread is to have conversations about this project... To talk about the good things, the bad things, or even showing indifference... I'm not asking you to agree with me... Just voicing my thoughts and opinions along side my fellow community members...

What is the name of the girl you bumped into sweeping the corridor that one time?
Or the name of the girl who lost her glasses in the gym?
Or the girl who was running in the corridor and bumped into Sensei?
Or the twins with the horns who are in the martial arts club?
Or the homeless girl?
Without looking them up - do you know who Jenny is? Or Rui? or Reiya?
Maybe we will spend hours with them in next updates but honestly do we care enough about them that we would rather just not bother and instead see more of the delicious red heads next door (Kaede was presented as one of the primary paths you got day one... it was her or Tomoe. Tomoe has since become a marriage prospect to the Sensei and has had oodles of time with him but Kaede has all but vanished without a trace despite being considered one of the what 18 main characters by the OPs own listings). I actually really miss the classes where you of course were not getting sex scenes but Sensei taught and interacted with all of them soon getting an affection for them all and interest in the banned students to expand it. It was a focus which has been dropped since week one often now classes are a one throwaway sentence.
Now don't get me wrong I one hundred percent DISAGREE with this strange sentiment that the dev is milking patrons or money. That couldn't be further from the truth - is the T8s being added en masse over saturating the character list? Yes but I don't grudge either the devs for adding more characters nor the patrons getting a proper legit return for that kind of money (good on them I say) but I do feel its been too much too soon. There are over 30 T8s already and thats more than most fully completely adult games on this site offer lol - why add so many so soon? Why not say 5 per in game week with focus on them to develop them so we want more of them just as much as their own patrons? I think there could be a hundred no issue given how many days the devs are planning on creating for the game so whats the rush.
Execution has been a bit iffy in that regards but you know something it could easily be a case of month one release adding in more scenes to flesh more of them out so its more a case you you see a character and instantly think 'ah her, shes the sister of another love interest and maybe even has the same kink of getting turned on by smell. I know already from proper development that she is a very fast athlete, does not attend the school, has an interest in the sensei and Is potential track and field rival for Mao who has had heavy development in getting back into that'. Ill bet far more of you know straight away just from that who im talking about because of the level of development vs my referencing a different girl sweeping a floor who has gotten none at all.
Pretty much you think of it and the game provides it from the mother to the daughters to the sister to likely even soon the niece.Whats the incest in this?
