Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.42.0] [Selebus]

[Pedro4545454]

Yeah I still think she's going to go nuts when she finds out about other girls, just go back one update to the conversation with Maya

In fact, I think it was quite explicit that Ami knows about the other girls in 0.37, since she says she looked at Akira's phone and saw the photos.

You have to remember that Maya is very protective when it involves her and Akira's past because she thinks she's going to break him so she keeps things from him makes sense, and this theory of things being his makes even more sense when we remember that Maya allowed Akira to hold the box, but he himself couldn't open them even though he wanted to.

and we know that most of the time in chapters 1 and 2 he refuses to do things that could trigger his past.

And we remember even more that Akira from chapters 1 and 2 was much more unstable involving his past, Akira literally started to have hallucinations and to have a mini crisis in his mind when he discovered that that was his body and almost discovered his name.

Spoiler: Akira body and name

So in my opinion, the chance of it being things from his past at the beginning of the reset, things from him with Maya or even a last-ditch plan that they may have planned in the past in case one of them were reset is very high in my opinion. .

Poor Noriko is the girl who, from the beginning, came with her lust statics unlocked, but she is the one who never manages to lose her virginity to Akira because someone always gets in the way hahahaha

I still say Maya and Noriko need to kiss and make up… literally. It would make for a really hot threesome.

And if they still must dislike each other, hate sex exists! I will justify this somehow!

I think that if our Maya made it back and was safe to be with Akira, she would be up for anything to be honest - thousands of resets later and without fear about being with him? She'd probably be up to organize the orgies even

Spoiler: That intense hatred though lol

Yeah, I totally agree, you make a lot of sense. Also, that second row of images sent me on an emotional journey, damn. The sheer desperation on her face, haunting.

oh no, what have I done? View attachment 3597604

this was a genius gag but fuck off sel lol

 

[LessonsInDissonance]

I'm still confused as all hells with all these gods, but if there was some kind of endgame and I could choose a god to side with I would have to choose pareidolia.
Unfortunately I don't give a shit about consencuences and he speaks my language, bro just wants to see me fuck, how could someone like that be bad for you?

Isn't that Hope's whole thing too?

As for the endgame, given that you reach the true end after going through individual endings for all the girls, I'd wager that either Akira or some god will have taken over, and he'll give one individual reset for each of them making their perfect life, before reaching the end - whatever that is.

 

[Teitonii]

woops lost my saves, anyone got a .39 100% file for me?

 

[Pedro4545454]

I don't even know anymore, it was all implied for HOPE to be like that too, but the only ones who controlled Akira to try to rape someone were Wire and Paredolia, and that doesn't make sense because they always say that HOPE was the most linked to rape, but until now, at least As far as I remember, he didn't control Akira for that.

Besides the fact that HOPE is really good with Akira, so much so that Akira failed Hope more than once and all Hope did was be disappointed and he threatened Akira and even then Hope didn't do anything.

Spoiler: Hope and his and mine dialogues

Yeah, I'm really on the dark about his brother so far. Cause if Hope really is his brother (or has some relation), then Sekai wanting to become his Angel, when her own name means that she was Akira's world, starts to become a little too metaphorical for me, and it starts to sound like nothing supernatural really exists and it's on Akira's head.

That being said, it's a really good point about Hope. Who were the sacrifices?

You're totally right, forgot about that. But, wait, Wires did get the sacrifice at that time, no? It was his season.

That one I’m not certain on offhand. I’m currently in the middle of my second playthrough and am on Chapter 2 again now right before the second Beach trip. So I haven’t made it that far again to give my mind a good refresher.

Wire: controlled Akira to abuse Yumi in his city in the first event that we have no choice in the old city.

Paredolia: Controlled Akira to abuse Molly in chapter 2, and controlled Akira to abuse Karin in chapter 4.

Hope: controlled Akira to abuse Sara in chapter 3 when she was saying that she was also having these fainting spells and "hallucinations".

Sekai: Controlled Akira with Futabu and Makoto with his angels in chapter 3 so they could both have sex with each other.

If you want to know which god is controlling or speaking, just notice the characters' eyes or dialogue, the gods have already shown several times that they can appear in another god's season, like here in version 0.40, Wire together with USER4 tried to remove the Paredolia from inside Akira's body is the strength even though it's not their season.

I really have to do a full replay instead of just going back and looking at events. I noticed that the eyes changed, but never that there were eyes specific to specific gods. Sekai was also with Akira during the Sana thing though, and controlled Kaori.

Oh, I have a question regarding Sara though: She mentions she's afraid of the darkness most of all or something like that, but I don't recall HOPE being associated with that (?)

 

[DeSkel15]

It was good stuff but I got the feeling that Selebus had no idea about what he wanted to do with Ami. Her character was all over the place with the last 4-6 updates.
He foreshadows that she's this lunatic psychotic killer that tortured everyone including Sensei follows up a bit on it after with her gaslighting her friends and trying to scare Ayane into submission.

Then Ayane snaps out of it and gives Ami a good talk which makes you think she'd change for the better, and she starts to actually get better giving us a breather instead of constantly being on our back, only for it to immediately be gone and she absolutely shuts everyone out, even her closest friends.

Granted you could say it's due to the trauma, but still. Even Ayane? Come on. Best part has to be her going around saying she'd kill all of them and going on to doxx and threaten most of them with the Sensei's phone pics and text.

This camping event was a nice one but again, where the hell is this going? I don't want to be lead on again like when she was starting to get mature to immediately devolve.

Just some food for thought, since this comment gives me an excuse to evaluate things a little:

Overall: If I were to guess, Sel probably just wants us to experience Ami's development within this environment, and it's effects on her and those around her. Lessons in loving the broken niece:
