After reading some discussion about the green/red path some pages ago (300...) i thought about something Sel could do but probably wont because its too much work:
Keep on mind that those are only some thoughts i had and probably wont happen, those are just some things i felt he could do since i follow the "Green path" and seems to be like the "correct path" (since its common that doing everything in a game is the correct way)

It'd be really easy to block purity routes / true ending based on green path or not (and it'd be just as easy to bypass that block ). The other ones require him to make more content tho so yeah I doubt he'd do those
First, congrats on finally being able to post screenshots
My take on these is very meta and again unassuming: while A House Near a Lake shows a clear effort in referencing or intentionally replicating a past event (from both Sensei's and viewers' perspectives), Everything is Connected on the other hand is only for showing the viewers that Saki exists in the same universe: an excuse for lore dumping if you would. As in, the rest of the elements in Everything is Connected are pretty close to non-factors and cannot withstand interrogation.
For example, Nao demonstrates a clear understanding of both her action and her intention (i.e., what will happen if Sensei goes into the doll house, what is inside the doll house, why does she want Sensei to go in, etc). Sensei gets to challenge what Nao knows afterwards, and this consequently fortifies "how real" this encounter is. However, the same thing cannot be said for Maya or any other character's potential partaking in Everything is Connected. There is no rhyme or reason or aftermath of what's transpired. Sensei never asked and Maya never confided. The sole takeaway is "Now viewers know Saki exists in the same universe" (like from the looks of it I am not even sure if Sensei remembered the first time he went to terminal 22 at all)
I am also reluctant to think about the possibility Himawari's participation if the sole reason to go off is that sunflower next to Maya. There are so many sunflower placements in so many events that lack both any worthwhile meaning or any separate piece of evidence that can prove the connection of "this particular sunflower" to Himawari. It creates so much false positive if we were to scream "Ah! My shapeshifting daughter!" every time we see a sunflower.
tldr is that any resemblance you see in A House Near a Lake is not about functionality, but a deliberate setup to ring Sensei's bell. Meanwhile, how Everything is Connected is crafted has no sense in it at all.
Finally, my slight grilling at Selly is that how could A House Near a Lake doesn't have path deviation if Everything is Connected is skippable? Sloppy!
Thank you. Constantly changing location on opera vpn helped.
I am disappointed because you make sense. I was so excited while playing the first reset because of the parallels with the last one.
-Watermelon helmet which he fucked returns and has to wear it.
-Exact same position of both maya and nao chan near doll house.
-Same posture with Maya and Kaori on rooftop.
-Himawari Maya showing Akira, a glimps of his parents while last reset shows a glimps of ami's parents.
But there is 4 years between these event, and selebus might not have thought this far ahead in such detail.
honesty need a lore dump cuz idk maybe I'm dumb or something but I still can't understand how this Saki girl and her co plus that ??? girl connected to overall plot even after finishing game twice up to date. it's me who dumb or Selebus can't properly explain his multi-timelines idea to idiots.
I typically go through your posts every once and a while for previews, but I saw this and laughed, just be me and you'll get one of the fastest bans, I basically had two rules made over me.

yes, I doubt Selebus will do any of these, but I agree that the potential is definitely there. As we have discussed plenty of times, green path tends to make Akira grow by facing his demons and learning from them. Which is the same as saying that red path tends to be (although happier in the present) also less useful to Akira in the long run. So he could be seen as more prone to breaking in the red path when everything comes crashing down.

Yuu was the protagonist to the previous game (which is unfinished), it is highly likely that he was the father to Sekai (by having a child with Miu, the redhead with twintails) and Nozomu (by having a child with Saki) - he was also a harem protagonist in that way. Saki is also Akira's mother, but it is uncertain if Yuu is his father as well (although also highly likely).
Regardless, Ami would be the final product of the incest between the two separate lineages left by Yuu.

So, basically, what you're saying is that Ami's murderous instinct doesn't come from Sekai at all, but rather from grandma Saki

Ami seems to basically have Grandma Saki's personality (Caretakers who lost their families and became antagonistic towards all perceived threats, likely out of fear of loss), Grandma Miu's style (albeit flatchested) when she had twintails:
Btw, this reminded me that Yuu's mother/Sensei's Grandmother/Ami's Great Grandmother died from Cancer. Yuu blamed it on Aliens to cope. It's possibly why the gods have C-adjectives in relation to them. Perhaps leftover trauma from the C-Word? Cunt. I mean, Cancer.
It kinda bugged me that the start of the game does not correspond to how resets work later. Everyone thinks of Akira as an upstanding teacher, and Maya tells us instantly that we've been isekai'd. She knows that something is different about the last reset. I know the common theory is that Akira offed himself last time, but why does everyone's memory get reset instead of only his ? So I tried to come up with a good explanation.
Anyway, this brings me to the now very common theory that Ami is a secret loop traveler. There's a lot of hints that were given already so I won't go long on that, but one I particularly noticed and I hope was part of the setup, is that Ami supposedly does not immediately remember her Madoka cosplay (from the previous year). It's stated that Ami's favorite thing not named Akira is magical girl anime, so you'd think that would be hard to forget, right ? Unless you had hundred of other halloweens since, that is. (PS: Homura cosplay would fit Maya to a T)
So I tried to come up with a couple theories on why and how that would be the case, I'll name them after another japanese fiction that would resemble them in how they play out :

tbh at this point my active theory that in og timeline outside of resets either Ami or Akira or both died somehow and unableto accept reality of it they created this mess. why any of them? well first
second is every loop basically with 100% probability( selebus didnt wanted repeat himself with such obius trick) starts with Ami staring at Akira in empty class but cuz of blackout things it mostly skipped later in resets. three: im actually crazy and SOMEHOW actual mastermind behind resets its Sekai and we all just crazy about unrelated stuff. which will be funny if i actually hit the nail with last one.
