I think I'd make the distinction here that Otoha knows about Sekai, or her poetry, or what have you, while Nodoka may know Sekai in a more "I've had hallucinations of her" sense (and I don't believe Otoha has).

I know I'm splitting hairs here and it's also just my opinion, but with this game, it helps to try to distinguish because who knows what each character actually perceives? Perception is important, after all.
That's a big reason I try to show the screenshots. But actually, it could be the other way around.

I'd think if Nodoka had seen Sekai even as a hallucination, she'd probably realize that Ami and her, look too much alike to not be related. She's just now realizing they are related because their poetry was similar. Probably didn't even know Sekai's last name, until now. Maybe not even the name Sekai.

Otoha on the other hand, well, she's apparently trying to pretend she doesn't know Sekai's pseudonym, even from Nodoka. She also didn't seem surprised to find out she was Ami's mother.

For all we know, she and Sekai are connected. Otoha is virtually the only girl that likes the idea of a little brother, as much as Sekai liked her little brother in law. Both of which, even seeing Sensei as that little brother:

Otoha also shares a few traits that Sekai likely did. Both just happening to be inherently popular, manipulative, and creative, plus they also seem to embrace being shitty people, enjoy power dynamics, and the idea of being with younger boys.

Not entirely sure what the point of Otoha is, but it's becoming likely that it's related to Sekai. She has also seen the Upside Down House though:

So, there might be something there.

Well, you've convinced me, I rescind my prior statement. I also have no idea how to write this where it doesn't sound like I'm being snarky, but I'm being totally genuine here

Though I'm glad that Akira will be slowly regaining his footing in the next update according to the previews, I most certainly will miss all his comical facial exaggerations as soon as he goes back to his self-proclaimed cool and mysterious expressionless self.

The hat really cracked me up
Same, I also literally thought this, last update:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

It's so depressing, that it's funny.

I envy your sense of humor. For me it was just depressing AF. Worst event of worst patch

I am going to be grumpy until 0.37, this shit really got me
I guess I just have a dark sense of humor. One of the funniest moments in this entire game for me, is still:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

.37 probably won't be as depressing as .36, I think. I'd be surprised if Sel could top that so soon.

What I really want to know is how Io will feel knowing that Ami "probably" wasn't druging Akira, he was like that just because.
There's also Uta's picture. The Io from last update was drugged up to care less and still seemed bothered by it:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Io already seemed to think Sensei should get help with his issues:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
And now she has a better idea of what issues he has.

Definitely looking forward to more Io content.
