It kinda sounds like the "old one held here", but it also kinda sounds like when you play a sound backwards.

Did anyone else catch that Amy mentioned a "white room":

And a "white room" was also mentioned by Yasu:

During the 'Down The Rabbit Hole' Yasu event. It seems to be a place that protects her. Perhaps Yasu, The Mall, and Amy are connected through this "white room"?

I really gotta start playing only completed games, man. At least in the past i was only waiting on updates for games to have more porn; with this game it feels like im super hyped up waiting to inflict another dose of D20 psychic damage upon myself
I feel like part of the fun is to speculate what's happening between updates, since you have time to think and not just read from start to finish. Plus 1 month wait is pretty standard for mangas.

This is also why I think Sel's release model is better for LiL and than most other patreon games. With most porn games that are already light on lore, waiting half a year just for an 2 hour update completely kills the hype and makes me feel that it wasn't worth the wait. I'd rather wait for these games to be complete. Meanwhile LiL is a lore-rich mystery series that is constantly teasing new shit every month. It also helps that LiL's thread on f95 is the only thing that has actual meaningful discussion everyday.

Haw haw! That all fits perfectly! Thank you!

This being complete now means i can get to something i noticed last night, it would seem this event was caused by Pareidolia... what do you guys make of that?

Did he cause the event, or did Akira simply slip into his realm by accident? He's nowhere to be seen, so if he pulled Akira in, for what purpose?

Pareidolia isn't on Sensei's side, but they seem to prefer fixing things than causing things to happen. Helped Sensei in the 'Non Est Deus' Happy Event, and in Yumi's 'Abyss', and even helped Sana in her 'Ad Infinitum'. Sending Sensei to the mall seems out of character.

I think Pareidolia may be related to the Mall though. Possibly named itself after it if the Mall is the "Pareidolia Mall". Maybe even was created by the Mall?

Considering the world outside the mall, maybe Pareidolia actually saved Amy and keep things relatively normal in there too, by closing off said mall from outside poisonous world (or sealing it to save the outside, keeping Amy in the cage) so, yeah, fixing things.

Possibly. I'm thinking Pareidolia might even be the doctor in the medical ward that's keeping those within the mall "healthy"/"alive". It's trait of being "concerned" might be a hint at something like that.

Of course, what exactly the gods are is still up in the air.

I can't help but feel like this game is gonna end with one big 'fuck you'. I get the vibe that the dev actually hates the player.
While I don't agree with the dev's attitude on all matters (though I am still a subscriber), he's made it clear that this isn't meant to be a pleasant story, Sensei is not supposed to be self insert or a character people enjoy 'playing as' and anyone who does identify with him or roots for him should seek help. And it's abundantly clear that there will not be anything resembling a 'happy' ending.

Handful of things I'm curious about after 'almost' catching up, (in the midst of 3.1 events)

I think "thoroughly confused" is just how we're supposed to be, tbh.

There was also how Long Maya showed up before the show started and asked if he had found the Paradox yet in Hexadecimal to Sensei. Ami's poem to Wakana, also mentioned a Paradox. Then there's the Moyo stuff with something growing inside of her. Not to mention, it seems like Yumi may have been murdered during the show, and it seems like Sekai somehow made it to the roof.

Overall: I think most people are confused. There's a lot of unanswered questions.

Hoping at least a few girls will get a happy-ish ending. Sensei can end up as their free use puppet for all I care. I do think it's too late for any happy endings though. "Everything is already g-":

I don't think he will go that far, but i do low-key think his stated plan for harem/dark/purity phases might turn out to be a massive load of shit and the awaited dark phase either never comes or plays out waaaaaaaay different than expected.
