same thing happened to me, not sure if in the future you'll be able to but as of now you can't, so you need to reload an old save
Thanks. I decided to just go view it and then go back to my main save. Wiki says it's not a missable event and, while I haven't exhaustively combed through the wiki, it doesn't look like I'll miss any events for not having seen it.

Any chance to get the Bonus Sex Scenes with the Tavern or Merchant or do you seriously have to grind to a million?

What do you come out the other side of a LiL reset having gained, other than a redundant reinforcement of the previously-well-established knowledge that the game is hostile to you?
In all fairness, as someone who's never drunk coffee, I know a whole lot about it simply because I assumed there would be a test on that 54 page discussion of coffee in chapter 3.

I feel like, at times, we might forget that parts of this game might be more like... interpretations of things not supernatural but more like hallucinations or altered mental states. Like, i'm more keen to lean on Sekai 'taking control' and making Akira kiss Yumi being less literal, Sekai is his abuser, his groomer, the ghost of his trauma, in a broken headcase like him, that situation with Yumi could cause flashbacks of his trauma and in that altered state, he'd just be on autopilot, copying what was done to him but to her. Like, i know with all the timelooping stuff there's got to be more to this than it turning out he's just a dude in a psychward dealing with his insanity, that'd be the lamest cop-out of an ending Selly could go for, but always assuming shit is exactly what it is on face value kind of strikes me as going too far the other way, some of the shit he does and goes through has got to be manifestations of his abuse trauma... replicating past experiences is beyond common in long term abuse victims, particularly those abused in their formative years, i myself enjoy getting physically hurt in the bedroom as a form of twisted and soothing replication of all the times my father beat the shit out of me growing up.

I suck at this theory stuff but sometimes i think sucking at it might offer some unique insight, sort of a situation of seeing the forest for the trees, even a broken clock is right twice a day. Is this one of those times?
I have supported this theory following Yumi's scene with Akira.

Basically, it could very well be that this town has two halves is just Akira feeling compelled to kiss Yumi because of how many times he did it already in previous loops. Thus it's himself controlling himself, no actual supernatural force involved. Same for a lot of stuff, he's reproducing what he already did.

I think rarely, if ever, someone is forcing Akira to do something. Pareidolia may have lied about a few things, but the message of gods have no power other than what you allow them to have has been repeated enough times for me to believe it. Sana outright rejects Pegasus and nothing happens.

As for Akira, he's been told multiple times that he's a freaking idiot by going around and leaving the door of his mind open.

Edit: I will say however that Nodoka contradicts part of what you said. She explains that Akira is controlled by memories yes, but not memories as you put it. It's not memories of his abuse, but rather the cyclical memories of what he has already done compelling him to do the exact same thing again.

Also rip Nodoka and Pareidolia, our unsung heroes that did way more for the solving of the puzzles than any of the "actual heroes".

If Tsubasa participates in next years Halloween party the perfect costume for her would be Maddie Fenton from Danny Phantom.

I think you are confusing Ch. 3 of this with Ch. 32 of Moby Dick. Melville was a huge fan of the Aero Press, dontcha know!

Hmm...wait...does "Moby" translate to "very large" by any chance? Maybe, just maybe...naaah, can't be.

I agree. It sounded very fishy to me.
Finished the update, and a few points that I haven't seen pointed out.

I didn't even register the third one, man... what a horrible situation. I mean, Akira was 100% right tbh, the way Sekai went about it was completely wrong. She'd become a kidnapper, it wouldn't even be legal for him to go with her. Still, she should have gone regardless, which begs the question, why didn't she? And I don't mean just on that moment, why didn't she leave Nozomu during all those years if she was fine with leaving him then?

Because she needed Akira.

Akira was the only thing that quieted her visions. If she leaves him, she doesn't last long, but he wouldn't leave Niki, so she stayed.

This informs us as to why Akira ultimately left Niki the first time prior to the accident -- he was preparing to leave with her. But they didn't get out in time.
