I would like to again make the point that there is no rape in "stomachache", other than the rape that would exist in every student's scene. Furthermore, imo, "stomachache" is one of the best if not the best/worst event in LiL. If ever there was a reason for LiL to delve into the topics it does, it was to have scenes like that. It's painfully realistic, complicated and it makes people feel horrible.
I'm not going to go through every detail from both of the variations, but since Akira's intent was obvious insofar as he went through the trauma of emulating Sekai, here's Io's counterpart:
I'm not saying Akira couldn't have come to this realisation he should walk out, based on what he went through, it just doesn't feel organic to me. It's like somehow I got a glimpse of the Akira from one entire season in the future just showing up for "stomachache" and leaving Io alone. What's the inciting event for him learning that his way of loving is wrong if not "stomachache" itself?
look at this and try to convince yourself if this doesn't read exactly like a dlc for LiL meant to make you get the happy scenes you couldn't in the base game:
This is so close to giving me diabetes that it is basically fanfiction at this point.
Edit: just want to reiterate that I get choosing red path for this one, not judging anyone for it. And I also get that people might need some sort of manifested agency of leading things in a better and healthier direction. My intent was just to point out that Io's probably going to have sex with Akira regardless, and that I think the writing for the red path is worse and makes less sense (as usual).

Playing LiL with red events is like reading a book and skiping pages.

Yeah, i'm not going to judge folks for not being able to stomach that scene but i remind myself this is a story about Akira and what he would do, not what i would do. Choices are just an illusion in this story.

I'm wondering if being at Ayane's/the Reset seemingly about to happen, was fucking with everyone's personalities, including Io's, and it was just extremely noticeable on the red path.
Of course, future red path dialogue could prove me wrong... but, I really hope Io and Sensei aren't going to act all lovey dovey in the red path from now on...it's just, well, it compels me to try out my best Maya impression, if you get what I'm saying.
Sensei seeing Maya, and mini/wizard Io showing up behind them in that Event:

Which may also explain why characters seemed to be more emotional last update. Sana talking about being jealous, Maya crying and lusting, Makoto opening up to Yumi, etc.
Albeit, I could just be trying to rationalize the Io red path dialogue...

Последнее сообщение на ближаишии год. Появилась у меня охуенная идея, если на гражданку(Даи Бог) вернусь через определенное время, то поиду в преподаватели по английскому языку. Вот умора будет, к тому же не зря же 2 бакалавра и магистра получал. Придется только сертификат Tesol получить, а то без него ща никуда, но в регионе он думаю нахуи не понадобится. Коммент мои затрагивающии Janu вдруг осенил меня эврикои. Только вот вопрос, бакалавр то у меня по филология(французкий язык и английский), а не педагогический, но думаю вкупе с Tesol проблем на гражданке не будет.

Just have 2 playthroughs going simultaneously 1 green path and 1 with your choices. I guess it could slightly undermine the weight involved in choosing to commit to or trying to avoid the more odious events. But your probably going to end up playing those scenes at least 1 time anyway so you might as well have an ongoing contrast between the 2. Although I guess that works better if you if you take the frame of reference from the choices you made and how the green path differs. Because if you look out from the green path its just missed events and dialog differences, occasionally they can be emotionally impactful ones, particularly if you saw the alternative, but its mostly just inconsequential ones.

Yeah,when stomachache event happening,someono told me so that green path is true path.
So back then i have 2 save in case something worse happening in future.
But looks like i already lost the save files,can someone kind enough to give me the save files 100% without any red line for now?

Funny, but this it sounds like what Sensei could say in first chapters. He blocked his memories along with name he was called, and when it wasn't enough (probably since Lavander's Green) he also created Pareidolia to blame him on his own actions.
Actually, this interpretation kind of explains why Niki haven't destroyed Sensei in Me Without You like Maya expeted: he had a new coping mechanism to protect himself

Seeing as people are talking about Yumi I guess ill bring this up. The other day while looking through my screenshots I saw something that completely contextualised to me why Yumi seems to care so much about Chinami, or at least why she seems to be so earnest in her interactions with and while playing with Chinami. In hindsight It's quite obvious, so I'm not sure why it didn't click in my mind when I initially played the event its from. I would try to explain it but I figured I would post the progression of screen shots that made it click because it will probably be more effective than whatever I would manage to type up. So if anyone else overlooked it like I did here you go, hopefully it make is click into place for you.

I know this is an emotional post that is meant to be taken somewhat seriously but every time i see that last image all i can think about is Yuki ripping a great big sleep fart... like that insectoid alien chick in that one episode of Solar Opposites.
