Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.46.0] [Selebus]

[Riolol]

actually i think it is just because Maya is a bitch and wanted ayane to get killed or punished severely mainly out of jealousy
remember she practically yelled about ayanes 'maybe' pregnancy right outside ami's window. I really hope ayane figures this out and starts to hate maya.

Something was going on with Ami that night (I think Nao was possessing her) and Maya seemed aware of it. Plus she knew a reset was about to happen and didn't think anyone but her and Akira would remember the conversation. I still don't fully trust Maya but I don't agree she was trying to get Ayane killed in that scene.

Do we know if Todd came back with the reset? Could be a good indicator if how death works in this world.

Todd didn't, but Yasu said that birds can move between the different planes too so maybe he got reincarnated or some shit

Maya's one priority is keeping Sensei alive and she is overly cautious about things that might melt his brain again. Turning his niece into a psychopath and getting his lover killed would probably not be good for that.

What's everyone's favourite character model? Forget the person and their personality, clothes and make-up, forget all the style, just raw nude character model? That one body with those sized hips and that cup size boobies, those eyes and that hair? You can only have one, no listing your favourite 8

Definitely Chin...

I would like to have all the models to look and judge who would be my fav but i think after watching the profiles of everyone that i may chose Miku. Tomboy small girl with short hair and nice ass (i dont really care much about boobs)

I am constantly running out of reactions every single day, i've picked up that there should be a max of 40 but the rate i seem to regain them is not 40 per day

There is a max quantity of reactions to give every day? Lol

exactly maya didnt think it would matter cause ayane was going to vanish and reappear whole after the reset anyway by her theory.

maya said the reset was happening soon, so maya could use ami for a hort period of time taking it out on ayane before it all gets undone and maya can ignore her petty small act of jealousy over not being able to touch akira since it didnt matter in terms of the larger picture.
those people that dont have the guts to get in a fight/hurt someone else tells a third party just the right thing, in the exact right way to get them to go ham on that person. all the while the first guy goes along thinking they are not as bad a person cause they didnt do the deed themselves

i still havent figured out how to use urm properly. i only spent like 15 minutes looking at it and going...wtf do I do, this is time consuming to learn, going to go do something else now.
I only want it to force it to play scene's I normally wouldn't see or unlock replays without having to play the entire game again on an old version.

Sadly you have to "replay" it (you can just rewatch the events and i think it will work) since you need the panel to change the choises, also the alt+m to change values is not that difficult, the hardest part could be find the names of what you want to change.

My theory is that Ami has always been psychotic.

(and possibly sexually abused by Akira while he was out of it, since he has a track record of doing that when he's brain dead)

I agree with the first part but about the second... I think is more probable that Ami "raped" Akira while he was broken we can see that posibility at the last event when Ami and Akira are talking since Akira would be more in some kind of vegetative state (like dont being able to walk, eat, bath,etc) but awaken.

Maybe it's just strange lighting, but is that black hair? Was the nude part not all she was refering to? Did she also dyed her hair?

 

[Bingoogus]

No, what i've read/learned/found-out is that there is a cap of 40 that you can give out and rather than resetting every 24 hours like the 'you have no more reactions to give today' message would suggest, they seem to slowly trickle in at a few per hour, not sure of the exact rate, i just know it's not much and it's slow.

It might also be sort of dependent on how 'empty' your tank is as i seem to quickly hit a point where it gets even slower, after hitting zero i might be able to give out 2 or 3 after an hour but only 3 or 4 after 3 hours.

The admins aren't going to explain how it works in any detail so i've only got what i've seen to guess and i'm not going to dedicate a few hours to testing every 60 seconds to find out for sure.

it's yumi lol idk
no i thought it was the lighting also

While I'm with you in here and understood Maya's words in the same way, it's not 100% confirmed that's how it is. For example, Todd being killed could hint that Psycho Ami has been going unleashed for a while now. It's not a contradiction since Ayane's been babbling about the loop since she survived the reset, maybe puttin Ami on alert. Still, it must be noted that this happened AFTER she confronted Ami about Akira and can't be discarded as a cause of triggering. If it was her obviously, Todd's dead is weird and seems the consecuence of a moment of rage rather than something planned since it wasn't followed with a threat letter to Ayane or something.

Now, I'm more interested in information Maya keep saving to herself. What happens to the girls attacked by Ami? Do they die and instantly go back to life? Are they revived after a reset if Sensei makes it thorugh? Are their memories rewritten? How many of them? Do they get scarred in some way? Because if nothing changes, what's the point?

Was Maya a target at least once? Odds are that she was with all the imagery of she being crucified and tortured. There's also confimation of Ami being jealous of her and not really buying her disdain for Sensei. And she was the culprit of trigering Ami many times. Why would she be spared then? Now again, if that happened, how did she survive with her memories and everything?

Maya know the answers to most of these if not all questions. No reason to being cryptic and leave us in the dark anymore.

I did say that Maya could be wrong. Still, it is 100% what Maya said. It's quite possible she could be wrong though, and it wouldn't be the first time.

The Todd thing doesn't really make much sense to be Psycho Ami as Maya knows her. I mean, why kill Ayane's chicken without her knowing, instead of Ayane herself? The way Maya framed Psycho Ami, she would apparently break and humiliate the girls themselves, and Sensei. There's also how Maya knew Todd was missing, but didn't seem to think it's a big deal or at least didn't go "did you tell Ami?". So, it's either something new that Psycho Ami could have done for some reason without changing Ami in a notable way, or one of the other handful of beings in the background got him.

Not to mention, Todd's been missing since after Ayane got to the roof and survived. Ayane confronting Ami about her and Sensei is optional, and it took place after Todd had already disappeared. I don't really think those two things correlate. There's also how Ayane accepts Ami and Sensei's relationship which would likely keep Psycho Ami at bay, anyway, instead of bringing her out even if she was triggered.

I do think Maya is hiding things, but I'm beginning to think it's not actually because she's "cryptic". I think much like The Shapeshifter, and the Narrator that was wondering if everyone is lying, Maya has to follow certain rules. Might even be an "Honorary Angel" like AmIOkay Maya is. It's also possible that Maya wanted Psycho Ami to awaken now. Out of everyone, Maya is the only one who has an idea of how to trigger her and how to get rid of her (considering Psycho Ami has come and gone and Maya witnessed it). Makoto telling Ami about the resets, after Maya told Makoto to text her questions she had, also seems odd. This coming up soon after Maya's trust had been questioned by Tsuneyo, and Makoto, who Maya doesn't seem to be a fan of, noticed the loops, also seems suspicious.

Maybe having Maya question her own memories is the trigger for Psycho Maya? Lmao. Overall: We'll have to wait and see before most things get answered. It's possible that Maya even made up the Psycho Ami stuff. Ami hasn't:

anyone in this timeline yet. At least as far as has been revealed.

Ami hired Yumi as a prostitute back then. Sensei was too out of it to notice though. It's why Sensei would stare at Yumi in the detentions. He was trying to remember where he's seen her before.

For real, though, I think it's just Ami. Her hair seems to have darkened tips:

Could also be an implication that her hair wasn't that clean. I doubt Ami was taking that much care of herself at the time. Her parents had just died and she was only around 7. She also had a broken guardian that couldn't even take care of himself. It's not surprising she's a little deranged nowadays.

Really nice idea though. But even this would not helpme love her less

Love knows no limits, nor distance. So, that's fair.

 

[Bingoogus]

I think much like The Shapeshifter, and the Narrator that was wondering if everyone is lying, Maya has to follow certain rules.

You're the only person who calls her the shapeshifter, for everyone else it's either Daisy or Himawari, so every time i read shapeshifter my brain stalls for a second as i think "wait, who's that?" before i remember. It's so jarring.

Could also be an implication that her hair wasn't that clean.

Whilst this is perfectly possible i can't really see it being easy to show with Koikatsu, nor can i see Selly putting in the effort to make it so if it is possible. Easy/obvious answer is the scene is just dark.

I'm waiting for the game to actually confirm her name before I start calling her by something else. She's also the only confirmed Shapeshifter so it just fits for me. Much like Psycho Ami. That's not actually the name she has, but it fits in my opinion.

The easy answer tends to be boring, but yeah it could just be the lighting.

 

[DeSkel15]

So, Mega Ami vs Real Ami vs Psycho Ami vs Mangled Ami vs Nao Ami vs Vylhana Ami.

Whose everyone's favorite Ami? Might as well add Amber Ami, Sekai dress Ami, Winter Ami, and Sailor Moon Ami, etc.

 

[JelF547]

Grounded Ami

Oh, you do you man, i'm not bitching, it just trips me up, the 'community' settled on Daisy so long ago i just have her entire person associated with that name, i still think of her as daisy instead of Himawari 90% of the time, same as Sensei/Akira being 90/10.

It might be boring but the thing is i am all about Occam's Razor and so unless there's some real ambiguity in something and no obvious as fuck explanation exists i'm pretty much always going to assume the boring answer. It's why i'm not good at the theorycrafting, i always err on the side of there being no deeper meaning to anything, especially since Selly is a human being and just as capable of doing the obvious and meaning the obvious as everyone else, there's typo's in the game and evidence of common blindspots we all have, in one of molly's scenes for example, she says 'the whole kitten caboodle' which, if that isn't what Selly thinks is the right way to say that, would have either Sensei calling it out and making fun of her, or at least thinking it in inner monologue text, something he does every other time one of the girls gets something wrong, neither happens so it's almost certainly a case of mishearing a common idiom, something we've all done.

I try to be the counter balance to the theorycrafting, you guys go really far out sometimes and i try to bring things back when i fear they've got way too far of into the deep end.

 

[JelF547]

By the way, why Himawari?

Yeah, I tend to do me.

I don't really think Ami having oily hair is really theory crafting, though, anymore than everyone breathing air is. It's just an assumption based off what's given. If anything, assuming it's only because of the lighting is the theory here. Kind of a meta theory since it's taking into account the creator themselves. First that "Sensei is horny" and now "Selebus is too lazy". You're on a roll, mate.

As for me, I try to acknowledge everything simultaneously then compartmentalize them into either confirmed, likely, unlikely or contradicted. I'm more or less what you get if you fuse Maya, Nodoka, and Io, into one person. An abomination lmao
