I think we have enough facts to assume that key to rooftop is someway related to pregnancy, so Maya's chances are significantly low at this point

I agree that pregnancy should has high plot relevance, but some other questions needs to be addressed for the theory to become universally applicable:

- Why is Ayane’s daughter the only paranormal offspring that shows up in the story if Maya, and now Makoto, have ever been pregnant at some point?

You could be creative and consider the possibility of those happy Maya clones being her daughters maybe instead of her own variants, but there is no such option for Makoto. Besides, Himawari showing up in the very first ever happy scene and currently still being the only impossible daughter that ever shows up to me is a subtle indication that she’s the only one.

- The second question isn't diegetic, but why was Makoto's possible pregnancy getting zero buildup in the story?

We did get some hints about Makoto no longer using rubber after a certain point, but there are so events that indicate Ayane's pregnancy and there is none for Makoto. I won't say the logic should stop working if signs of pregnancy just all happen BTS, but it's gonna be extremely underwhelming for me.

- The third question doesn't pertain only to pregnancy theory, but does one need to fulfill the prerequisite before the next reset hits to make it to the roof? In this case, getting pregnant every 4 months?

I am someone that believes "once you did it you're forever marked" type of thing, but this absolutely is my own proof-free bias. Also, think about how busy Sensei would be if girls need to be consistently impregnated in order to maintain steady amount of RAS members; suddenly it becomes a resource management game lol.

I agree more with the last one, but I also do not rule out, as I said before, loss of the fetus or something like that,
other thoughts is like falling into Maya's reasoning naively, oh Ayane wasn't pregnant in this reset, let's rule this out as a condition then, but there is clearly much more going on in the background.

If the plot is going to follow this path/theory, I don't think that arbitrarily, this story should be expanded with makoto and x amount of girls more when the central focus is already Ayane and quite possibly Maya in that sense. and many of the other questions are things that only Sel will know or are a long time away from being better explained in the story.

Remembering how in the rework, Breed the niece minigame (being the first happy interaction now in the game'), and in several more moments where the plot advances how Ami has her insane obsession with being pregnant, as if she knew or intuited something else, she adds some more fuel to the fire in that theory.

Regarding this part, it is not that I have the answer as such, but if there is a curious fact that could be very related to theorizing, I have been seeing occasionally on discord, that Ayane purity route is the first, so tying up some dots, Ayane route is what will come directly after the end of dark route, and her unborn daughter, Himawari, being related to her, could lead to some interesting conjectures the further the story develops and that we do not know.

Imagine Himawari will be born after the end of the dark route.

I definitely believe and hope that her birth or some timeskip comes out in Ayane purity route and even better that she could have memories or explanations of what happened in harem route.
So Ayane being the first purity route + Himawari could be great for answers.

I don't think she will be born after finishing dark route, because of how screwed everything would be, Plus I see her, more aimed at being born in normal conditions after developing Ayane's purity route.
I would believe and hope that she can manifest or could help whatever happens at the end of the dark route with Akira, It might still be a very confusing ending.
Of all the gods and paranormal phenomena that we have seen, at the moment she would be the only one, who in order to exist would benefit from the survival of both Ayane and Akira surviving the resets. and fixing the world, to basically exist herself.
so yeah, my bets are on her being a key piece at the end of dark route in some way and the catalyst for purity.

and assuming a little more, Maya possibly the last purity route and then go to the true ending, which is perhaps what could make the most sense.

Speaking of the Shapeshifter, aka Himawari, it seems a little odd that she's missing in Spring after seemingly helping Sensei in the reset, and apparently doing something with Ami clones:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

She's been messing with things since at least Chapter 1 (Maya's scarf), but all of a sudden, when Ayane is the "main girl" in Chapter 4, she's gone.

Makes me wonder if Pareidolia used her as it's Nightingale then got rid of her. Or she's simply busy with the mall being remodeled at the moment.

Therefore, both Makoto and Ayane would fit in well, and Maya could fit in with how much she still hides and is not known about her past.

There is almost a confirmation that Maya was pregnant during Baby Finches flasback. We've been told in 0.35 that Maya didn't have an abortion she told she had

This is a weak point of this theory. Technicaly, it might be imposter Ami, but imposter Ami theory is a big assumption itself

Connections with Ayane and Himawary aren't clean enough too, because after rework Himawary is introduced before Ayane's pregrancy. AFAIR, the only reasoning underneath "Himawary is Ayane's daughter" is existence of some special connection between them.

About Makoto's offspring - we have BigBoy :KEK:

And why Makoto's apperence on rooftop was getting zero buildup? Selebus :(

In this case Ayane would not get to the roof during fith reset

I dunno if it's the angle or model or if you've edited it but your avatar of what i assume is older-Tsukasa looks like she has a huge head above her eyeline, like, just twice the brain case as she should have and it makes me giggle every time i notice it.

So yeah hey, I was just wondering is there a purity rout? Like can we just simply not bed anybody? Because I might be missremembering but I think somethings that happened were outside of our control and the player had no control on it.

I have been playing this game from a very early development cycle, atleast before the second floor of the dorm was added, and was not added for a good while, and I have been playing on and off between months or possibly years of Haitus (I had downloaded 0.38 4 days ago and my last update was 33) and what happened with Maya hit me like a truck to the point that I screamed in anquish for solid 2 minutes and now I am personally wondering if I can minimize how horrible Sensei was in the past.

How do you get pass the Chapter 1 Reset event? I've done checked out the reset guide and used the walkthrough guide that was on github. I've done went to the shrine and did the pray thing 10 times. but ain't nothing working. Apparently the reset event is supposed to trigger on weekday morning but I'm stuck on day 160. And can't do anything cause the world is broken. I've also included my save file if anyone can help. I'd be most grateful!

Go to Sunday, you should have choices. And among them, to go to high school.
