First time i see Yumi THIS high.Impressive.
Care to elaborate?Also otoha being higher than imani is a sin

Having both Kirin and Karin in S-tier is an interesting choice. Are there two Imanis?

One of the pre-made tier lists has her twice for some reason.

This one I find easy considering the latest update. Yumi is one of the very few characters actively calling Akira out for being an absolute piece of shit creep, which he is. She is the antithesis of Chika, if you will, ironically. She is very well aware that he has no business lusting for schoolgirls, let alone his own students and that it does not make sense why the whole class is falling in love with him anyway, again, especially Chika who actually deserves a steady and reliable partner.
Which makes it oh so much worse that she still has feelings for this jerk, which I find perfectly portrayed in the little things she does, her reactions, her gradual dismantling of the barrier she built herself. It's quite beautiful, especially in this culminating scene between each other in the rain shelter. Yumi is arguably one of the most relatable character from the perspective of the player, I would claim. We know Akira is an asshole, we don't understand how he gets away with it, but we can't help ourselves to somehow still root for him.
I don't dislike Otoha as much as most guys here. She is, again, one of the most realistic characters in the game, as in, she actually acts a lot like a normal teenager would in the situation she is thrown into. Yes, she is somewhat unpredictable and sometimes annoying. But she is supposed to be, she is a teenager and a musician. Also, her ass.
Imani I just find a little bit boring, sorry. I would actually find her more unique and interesting if she remained the "best buddy" of Akira, but she has also fallen victim to his curse, albeit with a little bit less explanation than for most of the other girls. As in, I'm not sure what she sees in him exactly to be so much into him. Also someone once said on here that her character model looks odd somehow, and while I want to concur that these feelings do not stem from some form of racism, there is something about it that I also can't really put my finger on. Koikatsu is kind of bad at depicting characters that are not supposed to look East-Asian, I suppose.
The Kanda sisters are kind of two sides of a medal in my book. I like them for, obviously, very different reasons.
Kirin has definitely grown on me. Again, she seems a bit more reflective and aware in some regards than a lot of the other girls. Though I also was a bit disappointed with how Sel apparently decided to settle the matter between Akira, Karin and Kirin.
And Karin is just a sweetheart. Also it was nice to see that she is not afraid to be assertive and clear in her opinions and intentions, despite her otherwise very reserved demeanor, when facing Akira after the event.

Imani gets 6/10 twice in one tier list. It's so tragic

Top 10 sentences that get you killed/reset the fastest in Kumon-mi.
Sana does look incredible in her adult form though, I have to give you that. But I haven't seen all of them yet, I could imagine someone like Molly, Uta, Noriko or Touka maturing very gracefully. Kirin looked great too in that one render from Kitty Hawk.
Regarding Rin's hair: Like many things in this game, it has been growing on me. It's just that the change was so extreme, similar to Chika obviously, that you needed to get used to it first. Rin remains best bro though, even if she went bald.
Best hair change award goes to Sana as well though, no contest.

Okay, so I may or may not write books where the characters are in theory speaking in a language other than the one I'm writing in. So I may (or may not) know a little about this.
I get what you're saying, absolutely, but there's a reason that Sel (and writers like him) have to do it the way they do.
Wordplay famously doesn't translate -- especially across languages that don't share much (or any) vocabulary. And since certain characters kind of have to use puns and all the rest of it, you have to decide that you're going to play your silly games in the language you're writing in. Then you hope that the reader understands that what they're reading is a suggestion of how the characters are talking, rather than a literal record of what they're actually saying. It's why machine translation will always suck, especially around any kind of double entendre or other wordplay.
Because no one wants translation footnotes in their novels. Or VNs, for that matter.
The only other options are a) to have the characters making witty/snarky remarks in a language where those remarks make no sense or b) have them speak only in concrete, humorless language where translation won't ever be a problem. (BTW, such language really doesn't exist.)
I mean, in my writing (which is also set in another time period), I'm always careful not to have references to anachronisms or things the characters have no way of knowing about. Sometimes it's hard. Rather than use the obscure time units of the time and place my books are set in, I found I'd started to measure time in breaths and heartbeats and such, for example. I try to write from inside my characters' heads, even if the language I'm using to write down their thoughts and perceptions isn't the one they think in.
Mostly, I trust that the readers will go along with it. I get that in this case you found you couldn't. But I mostly find that I'm happy going along with Sel when he makes a joke that only really hits in Texas.
Does that make sense?

Oh, and since we're sharing our tiers, here's mine, which I've been refining for some time. The girls are in no particular order within the tiers, FWIW.

As Breadtaker said before, to me personally, Imani is so mediocre and forgettable, I accidently put her in the 'meh' tier twice.
So what happend to the wiki? Used to be up to date like right away and had very detailed descriptions too. They haven't even put Ami's cut hair pic up yet and that's been for a few updates now.

Sana's previews look eerily similar to Ad Meloria when the background is changing when Sensei is talking to Himawari.

There was that happy event with the stations of the cross where Maya and Sensei discuss how one god is actually three gods, so you might not be too far off

You should redownload the entire game because there were changes to the engine as of 0.42. While you can update, it's just easier (and safer) to redownload the whole thing.

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Welcome back!
I agree it's extremely hypocritical
"This underage girl is okay and I'll jerk off to her but this other one is more underage so I am going to make a fit and preach about morality, even tho I knew it was coming from miles away and technically we already saw it before with a boy but since it's a boy but not a girl I guess it's slightly better in my invisible morality scale"
Isn't it time for a new person to take care of the Wiki? JUST SAYING
