Salvador Dali himself, of course.

1. Who else ended up getting reset? We only witnessed Maya getting reset, and while it seemed like Ayane was safe, he was still in the room. Maybe Akira is now totally, completely alone in his knowledge of the world. I'd love to see how that goes.

My thought is Every Main Girl is Reset except for Ayane(maybe), because of Himawari/Shapeshifter/her daughter is protecting her(BeachWars event where they meet in the forest). Akira's punishment was he Reset them for not taking Maya like he was told. It happened in "Paper City", going one by one resting each main girl by shooting them. Going to the Dorm room was the aftermath of the slaughter.

This update was.... Interesting....
Kinda feel the same as others about this update. But I think that's intentional to make us feel like what Akira & Ayane is feeling after they woke up. If its actually so, good on Sel.
I'm glad I could figure out the foreshadowing of previous updates about Maya being reset and reset event happening.
As for the 6th Reset.... Fuck you Sel! that puzzle solve was reDICKulous!! Kinda figured it would be a little convoluted because of that, dragged out, "10 steps to playing LiL" thing earlier in the update, but not that bad!

Very Good on B.B. for figuring out the solution, Cheers!

I still think Sana's Moon man costume is actually Banana Man because she asks about your Potassium Intake when you 1st see her.

I've been wondering: What exactly caused Maya's "death"?

So I think there's one other possibility: Maya got reset because Sensei said:

Maya's Death/Reset was cause by Akira not doing was he was supposed to, take Maya despite her fear of Akira being Reset because they got Intimate before the "End of the World" (The Red Herring I though it was, Wasn't). I Think all the times that Akira got reset was because Maya was the one Initiating it. Not the other way around IIRC. So every time Akira (all vers. of him) would try, Maya would stop him thinking/insisting the end result would be the same. All Akira had to do was blindly/blankly throw himself @ her, like she described the 1st times they did it, and they would've been fine, "Blackout sex....really is the best...". With the God GOD god appeased.
we saw this twice, metaphorically in "Paper City" and literally @ the end. Which is a flashback(I think) at that point, the god's way of sticking the knife into Akira heart.

We are now entering the start of the dark time/path in Chap 4.
Which will probably begin with Akira and Ayane(?) still trying figure out how to restart the world.

My thoughts on the update:

Start felt a bit weak, as others pointed out, it's as if Sel wanted to close all the open matters before finishing the chapter: Otoha & Niki, Imai, Miku, Makoto, Noriko etc. All of their parts felt a bit rushed to get them out of the way before the grand climax.

Spotted a certain someone preparing the Ami clones for the reset. By now, it's obvious that Himawari is an agent of Pareidolia, but it remains to be seen if she is good or bad for Sensei. If we believe that she had her hand in what happened in the last events, then she largely moves to the bad side.

The obligatory reset puzzle was exactly like how obligatory reset puzzles are: all easy until you remain with the parts you don't get and then it becomes extremely annoying. Personally, I eventually gave up and went looking for the solutions, I even went all the way to translate every single note in hexadecimal, but after a while I just can't be bothered anymore.

The happy event was ... empty. No sense of fear and it said nothing new. Reset happy events are the best imo because they show stuff that goes beyond the reset, like Baby Finches and Mother's Milk, but this one had nothing of that. Also, 3rd happy event in a row about Ami, maybe this means something.

I liked the easter egg where you get a game over screen for getting caught by Kaori and Nao for stealing shampoo

As for the ending, well, we knew it was coming, but it still hurts. Poor Maya

Now that we have 2 months to debate. Who are we placing our bets on to be the face of chapter 4. Im betting Sana personally

This update is not quite as good if you're not a fan of denpa atmosphere and are just in it for SoL character interaction - though there were several gems of that too, like Rin's attempt to get Sensei out. But personally, I am a big fan of the atmosphere and the shadow it casts on the characters, and I don't find the puzzles all that annoying, so this was pretty great. I especially appreciated the almost palpable fear you could see in every word Akira had. The new BGMs were lit, too.

Rip to Maya homies and DeSkel's hopes of Nodoka feeling remorseful, though.

Yeah, gotta say, definitely disappointed in Nodoka at the moment.

Kind of just hoping she didn't sacrifice Kirin in the background.

Rin's time.

If Nodoka kills best girl I'm gonna murder Selly... But yeah Nodoka is the type of character that doesn't have feelings the way normal people would. She won't ever feel remorse if there's nothing she deeply cares about.

Rin's time.

It's most likely Sana or Makoto. But Rin would be awesome. I will die happily if Kirin ever becomes a banner girl.

 

[jameswitcher]

i get the vibe that sel is getting bored/wanting to move on, based on some of the dialogue.

 

[barglenarglezous]

You haven't added all of the ingredients. Go to Monday and see if you've missed any delivery, or try retracing my guide from step 8.

When I get to the point where I am to add ingredients, these are all I have. Am I missing one?

Edit: Figured it out -- the Parrot isn't listed in the solution guide, found it by digging through the puzzle code that had been listed.

It definitely seems implied. Nodoka seems too smart to have not figured out some of the rules and the easiest way to get someone alone with her to get it done. She also definitely doesn't give a damn about Kirin.

Nodoka mostly just seems to be expecting too much out of Futaba. Thinking she'll get it eventually, and waiting patiently for her to figure it out. Meanwhile, Futaba is doing similar with Nodoka and Rin. It's ironic really. I'm not used to these two acting so immature.

Makoto for me on Chap 4 banner

Crazy Theory on Nao.....

Where's this killing thing coming from outside of maybe Berserk ref? Besides, I doubt she wants anyone dead when all the "characters" still have interesting things to offer. She doesn't have a reason to stir shit up to make her book interesting yet.

It actually has nothing to do with Berserk. The gods of LiL want sacrifices apparently. They've always wanted them. I'm thinking the whole "take something you shouldn't" thing can be interpreted in various ways. From Rape to Murder.

Just in Sensei's case, he's usually raped.

Also, if someone gets sacrificed, it likely won't have any real consequences considering the reset. It's quite possible something sacrificed Ami, just like something seemed to sacrifice Todd in the past. Which already makes a certain Shapeshifter suspicious in my opinion.

Not to mention, Yumi might have been sacrificed during the last reset.

 

[Mori Enjoyer]

damn this update felt like a fever dream and introducing new center stages for chap 4 for some of the main girls

tying up subplots, rushed? felt not as fulfilling I guess for me imo still cool though. Oh I guess i missed the lust event entirely.

Lessons in Love brain is getting bad when I see bold text with swears and immediately link it back to the game...

 

[rianzz]

Guys, is it just me who has the impression that Rin can learn about resets? the same way it was with Makoto, if someone comes and explains it to her she won't get into a mini-loop and can learn about resets

 

[Wardtnaci]

Oh I guess i missed the lust event

I'm on the Bad Uncle route(I think)The one where "U do dah sects wid dah neice" and it gave me a choice weather to or not go with Ami. Is the choice there for people who choose the Other route(Good uncle?)?

Can't See it In Replay though, "End Replay" line is a little before the choice in the Event.

 

[DeSkel15]

I still think Sana's Moon man costume is actually Banana Man because she asks about your Potassium Intake when you 1st see her.

I feel way less stupid about the whole Banana Demon thing after this update, tbh:

I am of the opinion that Sana is so bad at Halloween, it makes her good at Halloween. Everyone else is some anime character or a cat girl samurai, etc. Then there's Sana:
