Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.43.0] [Selebus]

[DeSkel15]

Random, but I realized on a recent replay that Maya notably defended Sana (and Makoto), when Rin joked about them:

(also that Rin wants to be like Maya which is kind of cute and kind of sad)

It could be nothing, however, considering Maya seems somewhat attached to Sana throughout the game:

I think you're just reading too much into their conversation. In the first one I think Rin just admires Maya as a friend (like in a "she's so cool" way) and Maya didn't think saying "loser" right there wasn't necessary regardless of the person. As for Maya and Sana, before Sana joined the cool kids, Ayane was her only friend and since she was occasionally there with the Love Squad and manga club it's natural that Ami and Maya are a bit more friendly to Sana than others.

is the ayane threesome flag the only thing in the last couple of updates which blocks scenes?

edit: is there a way to recover the scenes with URM even though my only save is past the point where they would trigger?

If you modify the variables to this:

You should be able to trick the game into thinking you chose "ayanecthree", and be able to replay those missing events. (Also if you missed or have chosen not to fuck Haruka, you should have 1 miss in Chapter 3, not sure if it actually applies to Ayane, but whatever. Could probably ignore it if you aren't fucking Haruka.)

Might cause problems down the road if you have multiple "cthree"s though.

The Maya/Sana thing comes across to me as the two of them liking each other, but Sana is too shy to ask to hang out, and Maya is too Maya to think non-Ami friends need to hang out more than once an eon.

Is it close to being over? because I had to punch out last year due to how the story was affecting me

It'd probably be more accurate to consider it "close to starting". I doubt it's going to end anytime soon.

This feels like an example of Maya being infinitely similar to Sensei: being a buzzkill and being an overprotective friend toward their smol angel Sana; meanwhile Sana just being Sana, struggling with the concept of friends in both cases.

 

[Qrash]

My perception of Maya's and Sensei's relationship has completely changed now due to some of the recent revelations.

Does anyone have a good take on why this sentence "Then I will continue to praise myself so your disdain for me may grow as if it is a tree" set Sensei off? I am scarcely on the same page with Sensei with the I wonder why?

The scene flashes with a tree jpeg from trinity Pt1 if you've seen it prior to triggering Watermelons and Violin, but that's about it. I don't think this is a case where Maya simply cites an old analogy she or Sensei made for describing something, as Maya has always been careful not to do that. So what does tree, or maybe that tree in particular, mean to him?

One can assume tree here is associated with religion stuff, hence Sensei's overall distaste in the matter. However, Sensei didn't have any strong reaction when he saw the actual tree, and I don't remember if Sensei ever made the association between tree and god, or anything from the past in that matter, while displaying clear negative emotions
(I also have doubts on if Sensei at all is able to associate tree with god or not. It feels like a player thing and not his).

Or maybe he just doesn't like anything that starts with T?

I feel like this has a chance of being something more, and not just a comedic running gag that doesn't need to be answered.
For example, Sensei is against the idea of Ayane saying teacher-time as some kind of innuendo. It wasn't until after a second playthrough plus some future revelations that I thought "Ah, it might be him subconsciously rejecting anything that reminds him of Sekai". I think Sensei's sudden anger towards that sentence is like this, but for now I don't know what it is insinuating.

Maybe has something to do with the Sakura tree associated with Niki...?

I feel like there's a good chance it's a line from some poetry either he, or Sekai, had written. (Wakana mentions how he used to write, but doesn't anymore, right?)

 

[5A 61 68 79 6E 68 79 6B]

By the way, have you ever thought that a friend who died a long time ago with the letter T is Time? Was there such a theory?

And about Sakura is it like a favorite Sekai tree?

And it's also in his mother's surname "Sakurazaka"

 

[barglenarglezous]

This was my thought as well, as the line has a poetic quality very unlike Maya's typical speech.

 

[apostolodieros]

but do you know when the next update should be released?

 

[Angiboat]

but do you know when the next update should be released?

First of each month, but I think after this October's update we're going to get two months of no update?

 

[barglenarglezous]

but do you know when the next update should be released?

We're entering the holiday season, which slows down the release schedule. Next two updates release on 10/15 and 1/1/24

Normally, updates are released to subscribers on the 1st of each month.

 

[5A 61 68 79 6E 68 79 6B]

but do you know when the next update should be released?

10/15 — 0.35
01/01 — 0.36

I wish there is a reset down the line in which Akira and Ami get home together and are greeted by a voice "Welcome home", they turn the corner and there she is in all her pedophilic, incestual glory: Sekai in an apron, then she asks "Do you want dinner, a bath, or me?".
Too bad there will be no more characters, after these few updates that Sekai showed up I'm really starting to like her and kinda wish she would appear as a character now.

 

[Wardtnaci]

Too bad there will be no more characters, after these few updates that Sekai showed up I'm really starting to like her and kinda wish she would appear as a character now.

I know that the consensus theory on Sekai is that she is a ghost that can move freely since she was released during a happy event or a Reset (I can't remember which) while screaming Akira's name. I believe that she is only a figment/Aspect of Akira's broken mind created from the Psychotic Break he suffered from her death and that only he sees her. Since Akira knows her so well, the Psychosis is capable of recreating Sekai so flawlessly that she seem so alive and engaging to Akira. The more he remembers his past, the more the Sekai side of his addled mind will push through and manifest itself. What's also significant is that each time Sekai appears to Akira, Akira begins to freak out and tries to suppress Her to keep the pain and sorrow away.

Crazy Theory: Each time Akira blacks out, it's the Sekai side of his mind taking over and while in control it is not able to speak, or it can and choses not to speak the majority of the time, is also capable of hypnosis. (The 3some with Makoto & Futaba)
