Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.48.0] [Selebus]

[Pedro4545454]

That's what I thought. Even Nodoka seems surprised (ha you beat me to it), then here's Sana smiling, like she's been waiting for this.

That also reminds me, Sensei apparently, at least subconsciously, blames Sana for everything:

I'm already excited for next update and there's still weeks to go..

As I said, 0.37 has huge potential to be one of the top 3 best versions, I hope Selly doesn't disappoint.

This thing about Akira blaming Sana is very interesting, what could have happened in the infirmary for him to instantly blame Sana? logically he could only have blamed her because he is completely full of emotions and was looking for someone to blame for the pain he was feeling at that moment, more so on the chance that something important happened in the ward that we don't know about.

This update arrives when my vacation is over, shit hahaha

I meant more literal sense XD. What exactly are Care Packages? have not played game yet. downloading now

Care packages are special little things Sel made to repay the subscribers like aged down or aged up sex scenes, like child Futaba or adult Chinami, some information on the girls, coded messages that up to now mean nothing, pages of Uta's "Sensei love ranking journal" and commentary on some scenes. Also if you don't patch the gui it deletes your saves.

Care Packages are DLC that adds Non-Canon animations, mostly Loli, to the game and tend to come with DRM that will delete your saves if it's not cleaned prior. They also come with some bonus material, that are accessible without adding the ** to the game.

Maybe it's a red herring by having Ami in the class and she's actually angry at Ayane because she got dragged after some sort of convincing, and they're actually looking at Imani not Sensei, would be devious for sure.
Looks like Yumi's getting +1 friend for real at least.

There is information about some girls, Uta's Rank involving sensei, some wallpapers and much more, lots of Mage content there...

This theory goes to waste when we see that Maya is censored and the only person who censors this new Maya is Akira

0.37 will be fire

 

[Pedro4545454]

The thing I found most strange is Ayane's expression of surprise, if we theorized correctly and she who helped Akira to leave the house wouldn't feel like she was surprised by his presence since she helped him, which leads me to think that Akira seriously started going out alone and goes back to school and that's why Ami has this slightly angry expression and that's why everyone (-Sana) has a surprised expression because none of them expected to see him there already that if 1 of them knew that Akira was coming back, they would all know it already.

or it could be something to do with Akira's appearance and everything else since the guy was practically in a coma for 2 months so it would make him feel like he had some physical changes but I don't think some changes would make them have all these reactions.

If Selly does it right it could be the best update in the entire game. (Logically in my opinion)

What was the name of the song secondmall was based on? I know what i thought it was but then someone posted the actual answer.

As already answered, it is based on a song by Janis Ian, but more specifically, secondmall.mp3 is an edit of an instrumental arrangement of At Seventeen made by Muzak. Just search on YouTube, Muzak Orchestra - At Seventeen. You'll find the version used to make it. A word of caution, though: you thought secondmall was addictive? Well, I'll just say the first time I listened to it, I entered a rabbit hole of elevator music and kept listening to them for at least 5 hours.

I think Sensei hated that Sana seduced him while he was having a mental breakdown, which eventually led to what happened to Maya, but in the reset, he also confused Maya for Sana:

Overall: Sana seemed to be the catalyst in his mind that led to him doing what he did to Maya.

It's also possible, that if Sensei had just fucked Sana, then Maya might still be around. She seemed to be the intended sacrifice for HOPE. But not going through with it, apparently caused HOPE and Yasu to abandon Sensei:

So, Sensei may also be blaming Sana for him not fucking her.

If I were to guess, Sana seemed to be HOPE's intended Sacrifice. Molly was probably USER2/The Wire God's, and Maya was Pareidolia's. The Calm and the Concerned gods were fed, but the Callous one is starving. HOPE was too Generous:

This could also be why Pareidolia seems to want Sensei to fuck everything. It might make it stronger and possibly lead to an "Infinite Spring".

And Kaori (probably)... maybe she's the one in the class right now and we got her pov.

 

[somedoodwhogames]

I found it interesting that several characters were depicted blushing, while some of the usual blushy Bettys (Makoto, Ayane) had neutral or blank expressions. Makoto looks a bit like "silently judging", but I think that's just the frames of her glasses. Quick breakdown by mood to follow.

Blushing/Flustered:
Noriko
Ami
Sana (but also smiling)
Io
Rin
Futaba
Yasu

Surprised/Startled:
Chika
Touka
Uta
Otoha

Neutral:
Kirin
Molly
Yumi
Makoto
Ayane
Miku
Nodoka
Tsuneyo



Maya

As others have said, pixelated Maya indicates that we're looking at Akira's POV here. Hard to read anything else into this, but maybe someone wants to speculate based on who has what expression.

For me, I'm just annoyed that best homie, who is finally free of her Sapphic ties, got shorted an event so that psychotic niece can get more screen time.

 

[barglenarglezous]

It almost looks like Yumi is smiling.

any word if Sel decided to backpedal on Haruka/Niki receiving new outfits/designs? still hoping they receive something new especially those two... I can't imagine them recieving anything substantial off the top of my head sadly

Damn, I was so focused on Sana and what could have happened to Akira for him to leave the house that I didn't even notice the girls blushing, I think my theory of physical or style change may not be wrong after all.

I'm happy to see Io blushing looking at Akira, it calms my heart, showing that she apparently doesn't hate him because of Uta's photo.

Bro, Yasu blushing........what the fuck happened for her to start with that??? Akira arrived telling her that he was going to start following HOPER infinitely??? because I don't think I've ever seen her blush just looking at him.

Bro, Nodoka is looking at Akira like when she saw Yuki for the first time........what the fuck happened to Akira Bro, I really want to see what happened to get this whole reaction?????

 

[Pedro4545454]

Maya

We have to see Maya's reaction from someone else's point of view, anger. I swear, if by fate this new Maya starts blushing and wants to be close to Akira and he doesn't want her close to him, I think I'll curse Selly more than anything.

 

[Pedro4545454]

I know it's a bit random but look, I tried my best to improve this image so here's the best result if anyone wants to try to understand if Yami is smiling or not.

This censored Maya is hurting my heart a little. Even though she's the fake one, it still hurts.

Agree. The Maya previews/generic stuff is killing me. Niki is my other favorite girl so I'm hoping for something good there but I just don't think anything but tears will come from this chapter. Why do I love this story so much, I dont usually care for anything this sad.
