Just to put this out there, Chika does believe, if not for Sensei, she would have probably accepted Rin:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
Which she's told Otoha:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

So, the only things presumably keeping them apart, are their toxic cheating significant others who even know Chika and Rin deserve better than them.
Exactly, a devoted type, she would never cheat, probably even if she found out she was already being cheated on. I could see her ending the relationship she's in entirely, which would open her up to being with Rin, but she would probably try to work things out first before taking a step like that considering this is Chika we're talking about. In fact, I think she might be the only girl in the game that would try to keep it going despite everything.

If one of the two of them were to break up i would definitely put my money on Rin and otoha.

The reason being that Chika and sensei breaking up would be a lot of trouble that is still too soon. If it were to happen it would probably be in a "dark phase" update where everyone and everything is falling apart.

Another reason that Rin breaking up with Otoha means that Rin can finally hook up with sensei (which means more content and more events and lust scenes yay)

This may sound unbelievable but sensei would definitely be a better partner for Rin than Otoha.
Same considering what Rin has already started saying and how Otoha treats her, those two ending is far more likely than anything on Chika's end. I'm not so sure Sensei would be better for Rin, though. About the only differences between the two is he is less open about it and isn't as controlling over what the girls he's with do.

Actually, I think it's easily believable. Sensei cares a lot about Rin:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
To the point even he seemed affected by the fact Otoha cheated on her:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
Meanwhile, there's Otoha:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Not to mention, I doubt Rin would go into a relationship with Sensei expecting to be his one and only, so even him fucking others wouldn't really be cheating.

Hell, she'd probably be down for watching him fuck other girls, if they weren't into her:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
and helping prepare the girls if they were:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Honestly, if Otoha hadn't been so Otoha in their relationship, I doubt it'd even hurt Rin all that much to find out she cheated. Let alone on an Idol that Rin probably wants to fuck as well. It's just the hypocrisy, secrecy, and complete disregard for Rin's feelings that's going to hurt her.
Yes, it would be cheating unless an open relationship is specifically agreed upon by both sides of a relationship, it doesn't really matter if she's okay with him being with other girls, that just means she's okay with being cheated on, which doesn't make much sense considering how she's reacting to even the unconfirmed thought of that with Otoha. Yes, I am aware of her comments in front of Kaori, but I don't believe she meant this as being interested in watching the two of them and prepping Kaori while in a relationship with Sensei, I don't think being in a relationship with Sensei was even part of her thought process at the time.

Before I forget, I'd like to point out that Rin seems like she'd even be fine with Ami joining in with her and Sensei:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
To be frank, Rin x Sensei might be one of the most functional possible relationships, well, possible. The only real problem is Rin prefers girls, and I suppose she kind of sucks at secrets which could be a problem.
She prefers girls for now, bisexuality can change in either direction at basically any time given the right push. Considering what we're seeing with Otoha, that push might be coming and I think it will come with the end of their relationship. A second failed attempt at being with another girl and she possibly starts thinking maybe the one guy who has been there when those attempts fell apart would be better as a third than yet another girl. Once the relationship ends, she's going to most likely be looking for the least likely person to hurt her in her eyes and that's very likely someone who has been there to help the whole time even if it is for his own reasons.

For this reason, there may be a chance she might already be thinking of an open relationship despite what I said above, which would eliminate cheating from the equation as you said. She might be getting into that kind of mindset considering she's already aware he isn't that loyal. She might just have conditions that he gives her the experience she's looking for, a proper relationship with someone who treats her like a romantic partner with all the stuff that goes with it:

they both care about each other and can do normal dating stuff.
This^

I understand that my words may sound strange now, given the fact that reading the above, I get the impression that I am reading another novel, but let's say all of the above thoughts are true. Otoha Scum, Rin is cool and that's all the rest. But, I have a few questions.

First, the Rin from the first chapter before the rework, the Rin of the first chapter after the rework, the Rin of the second chapter and the Rin of the third chapter are four different Rins. Which one are you talking about? From my point of view, a normal Rin existed only before the rework.

Second, If Rin is so perceptive, why then she didn't know that Molly was in love with her? Why she didn't realize that Molly wouldn't let Otoha play because of jealousy? What Noriko is understood, by the way.

And if she's so perceptive, why she did react to Sensei's name like that?

And most importantly, if she is so perceptive, why then why can't feel for almost six months that she Otoha, as you put it, cheated her
She is perceptive and she knew Molly liked her, but she was also blinded by her own feelings twice, neither time having feelings for Molly. She already suspects that Otoha is cheating or is at least worrying about it, that's why people see her as being as perceptive as they do. Otoha has never really shown her openly cheating side to Rin, she has only ever cheated or mentioned cheating where Rin couldn't have been able to find out. However, she treats Rin so badly that it can barely even be considered treating Rin as human let alone as a lover. It wouldn't be that far of a stretch to connect that kind of treatment to being cheated on.

Agree; god I want to see that happen so bad!

The fact the Sensei doesn't mind her issues and Rin doesn't mind his fucking around issues (under one condition: she gets to watch or join) are such a match made in heaven. Like, in addition to her roommate and workplace boss, Rin even gives you the pass to go over her mom, what a teenager!
Since. day. one. Rin is my number one favorite, contrary to my usual likes in fiction which would have others in that spot like Ami or Chinami. This, Rin x Sensei (Rinsei? Seirin? Rinsen? Senrin?), is a relationship I have been wanting to see since the very beginning of development. Yes, I supported Rin x Chika (Chikarin?), but I mainly wanted and still want to see her with Sensei when the story allows for it.

You're suuuuuure Rin is loyal??? Someone who groped another girl's tit right in from of her girlfriend on the first day of relationship??
View attachment 2923918
Just kidding! Pretty sure she is loyal :LOL:
To a fault...and her own detriment, unfortunately.

How convenient it is for you to tear a phrase out of context and attract meaning to it. Instead of realizing that the author takes and makes situations such as he needs. The characters behave this way because they have to, not because they are like that. he puts in the thoughts that you should think, and then he put everything else into the black screen, saying that this is what Otoha did. And most importantly, you forget the words on the banana, from which Otoha did not depart for a second. At the same time, you hypocritically accuse her of all sins, putting in front of the infallible one who does everything only for herself and with rare exceptions for Futaba.

If you tell me that Otoha forced Rin not to communicate with anyone, then this is not in the novel. This is behind a black screen, and in the betrayal branch there is also a pattern where Rin is to blame herself. Well, of course, a chapter and a half in every dialogue to mention that you are a traitor. Anyone will stop communicating there. And especially considering that you can stick your fingers in Chika before the first dialogue with Rin, when she mentions her.

And of all the branches of the plot, Rin herself created such a OTOHA SCUM for herself with endless sexual pressure, and if I had a choice, I would like them never to meet. Otoha deserves more and normal. And not this monster, which was once smart somewhere, but she had nothing left with the rework at all, and in the third chapter she behaves like a clown, which 0.33 showed even more.

By the way, what Rin said in the rework that she was going for a walk with a girl with whom they could never be together. And then this mention of the bottle crosses out everything. Rin sat and insisted that Molly fulfill her whim, not understanding the nature of her behavior, although only a blind person there will not understand what the reason is. And this is a stone in the garden of one genius who broke more than he repaired with a rework
She did not create the Otoha we see in game, that's how Otoha already was. Rin just didn't see it coming until she was already dating Otoha. Again, she was too blind to what was right in front of her because of her hormones and her own feelings toward Otoha that got compounded by the rejection from Chika before that. Otoha has never gone so far as to forbid interaction with the other girls or Sensei, she just doesn't treat Rin like a lover would and goes behind Rin's back when Rin can't possibly know she's doing something like cheating due to not being there. A person can be the most perceptive on the planet, but that's not going to let them know their lover is cheating on them when they aren't even there.

Random, but I decided to check out how "Huggy Boy" Chinami is, and:

That was discontinued once Patreon was no longer a problem, it was only ever being made to get around Patreon's draconian anti-creativity rules in the first place, so it no longer serves a purpose.

Not unless it's something he has had planned out at least, who knows where he intends to take Chika's story, she could get super jaded and go somewhat slutty if/when she discovers Akira's infidelity. I'm not saying how, i struggle to see an optimal path for it myself, but it's not impossible and it might take 30 steps to get there, but if that's his plan, that's what will happen.
If there is something planned for Chika finding out about Akira's numerous relationships we might get a sad girl arc or she might break the game if she finds out. After the Futaba rooms with clocks moment; the characters who you'd think have little to no lore implications actually do.

I'm replaying the game and found something out:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
What Noriko is actually saying in her 'Sculpture (Dream Girl)' Event, makes more sense with context:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
She's just talking about a potential scenario where getting walked around on a leash in public by Sensei, would lead to them being separated.

In other words: It's likely a case of her saying things that make her seem more suspicious than she actually is:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
Which is kind of her thing.

It also wouldn't make sense considering she later on, in her 'Loxosceles Reclusa' Event, claims him disappearing came out of nowhere:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
Not to mention, I'd think her mentioning something that significant from the past would have had at least some affect on Sensei.

Now that I know what that event title is, I did not until just now, I wonder if there is some importance to that. For context, Loxoceles Reclusa is the Brown Recluse spider's scientific name. One of the most dangerous spiders on the planet.

It's mentioned by Kaori "the queen of spiders", in this event:

So, that alone could be why.

Albeit, the significance behind why both Pareidolia and Kaori apparently seem to have an affinity for "The Dark" and "Spiders":

I think you're missing a few things, tbh.
You're right. I didn't remember that.
You also took my "laid hand" on Nikki a bit to literally.
I was more focused on the meaning of "had actual sex", the good old "hide the sausage", with their first time only happening a couple patches ago.
I also don't know what Nikki means with "hand stuff". Was she giving him a handjob while he was patting her head? JK

I can assure you that there is no "Headcanon" with the M&S(A) relationship. As i pointed out a couple of times, even in what you quoted from me: I think, we're not allowed to have (yet), we don't know, we would need to know, know know know. Where's knownohope actually?

Saying you think i might be confused and trying to support that by:
- I hinted at it here:
and then starting with
- So, Random Theory Time:

I hope i don't have to evaluate how that looks.

But anyways, maybe i wasn't clear enough:
I come up with theories as anyone else, including you.
If i want what i say to be taken as fact, i try to make that clear, with screens and whatnot.

I guess we can both agree that we have different opinions or theories here and i'll leave it at that for now, till Sel enlightens us.

Wait, the book is "haphazardly pieced together with different parts of other books and pages of all different sizes" that may corroborate the theory that Kaori has parts of Sekai, and maybe other people transplanted into her after the accident.

Yeah, the connection to Pareidolia, Sekai, and what Kaori apparently said in Hexadecimal:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
In the 'First Contact' main event, definitely implies she's got something going on inside of her.

I feel like she's mentioned a few other things, that may be notable, but I'll have to pay more attention on my next playthrough. Her ignoring Maya:

Who apparently had no idea who Kaori was (which is odd considering how long Maya has apparently been around):

Seems notable in the grand scheme of things, for example. Why though, I'm not entirely sure.

I've been away a long while (half a year maybe) and I really miss this shit. I'm considering starting over, though my save might still be valid(?). In case it isn't, has early game had any changed scenes or dialogue? Would I be missing stuff for 'resuming'? Also has anyone made fumos of the girls? In the time since I've become able to make cool stuff for the game if anyone's interested

The brown haired girl's (who is definitely Ayane's daughter) name is practically confirmed to be Himawari, it means sunflower in Japanese, and she said "your little sunflower" when referring to herself.

The game was reworked, with some things added, deleted, and changed from the beginning. If you haven't played since then, then I definitely recommend starting over. Honestly, you might as well anyway just to see what you recall, and what you might have just thought happened. It's a long game.

Not sure if "fumos" are considered fan art, but there's a LiL fan art thread that you can get to from the first post. Might get some commissions or something there if you mention it.

I was thinking more along the lines of why that species specifically. He could have gone with the more infamous Black Widow of the Lactrodectus genus, but he went with the Brown Recluse. Yes, I am aware the tattoo Kaori has resembles the Brown Recluse more than the Black Widow, but that's more a product of there not being that many designs with spiders to choose from in the character maker, something he can't control unless he knows how to mod Koikatsu or make an overlay PNG.

Most of the beginning was redone, mainly to tone down how quickly some girls get into sex scenes, but also to improve the writing and graphics to the levels that the game had reached at the time of the rework.

Random, but has anyone theorized that Yumi bullying Futaba might be due to her having a crush on her?

This came to mind after realizing that Yumi was just peacefully staring at Futaba during the first dorm wars:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
and in retrospect she did technically try to strip Futaba:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
Yumi does say she doesn't go that way, but she's not exactly the most honest person around. Especially about her feelings.

Then again, it could just be a coincidence.

As someone who claimed to know every nook and cranny of Kumon-mi, it is a little odd that Maya has no knowledge of Kaori now that you mentioned it.

One can chalk it up to because of her disinterest in meeting other people, and the fact that Maya’s self claim is just plain incorrect and she is actually not very observant. However, as a food-driven person such as herself, Maya could’ve learned her existence if she ever visited literally any restaurant in the city. Like the outdoor deli place where we met Maya the first time? It looks like the same place where Futaba first met Kaori (plus I am willing to bet that Maya also loves sausage fest lol)

One napkin hypothesis here is that Kaori is someone (or something) unique to this iteration. Perhaps she really has stayed dead after whatever happened for the rest of eternity like how Yumi and Yuki remembered, until now.

Definitely thinking the same. Potentially, Kaori could be some kind of amalgamation like Nao-chan, and might even play a part in why this timeline has gone differently. There's definitely something special about Kaori.
