I mean... it might've been not that longg? Like the camping trip was after his coma and you get to still visit her in the bar, so it's pretty weird to think she's sad about him not seeing her when the bar generic events isn't locked even before the beach. Unless generic events are retconned??
The generics are weird and it feels like those visits are rarely if ever mentioned in other events. But I was just tossing out another idea so who knows the cause.

Sel already went out of his way as far as i've seen.
Normally the PC in Akiras room was blocked because of akirasad = true.

Now we got the Bonus Animation which is on said PC.
For that Sel turned akirasad = false.

It should have happened naturally in the story with something like:
"Your state has turned from sad to normal" or the likes, like we had in the past updates.
Unless that happened and i forgot/overlooked.

No, he wasn't. He just removed restriction

Code:

Yeah thats right.
He removed the clause, instead of what i said "turned it false".

But i hope we can agree that he still seems to have went out of his way with that one.

No, he just made rin & sana animation available
So he always planned to turn ALL features of the PC ON again, when he had that/those (read future) animations ready, making it dependend on a flag that reads senseisad ?

Maybe it should have been named $SelHappy = false before and $SelHappy = true, after he reigned in the additional money with the "Goals".

I hope you get my point now.

Locking the PC behind senseisad makes sense at first, but it was also just the simplest way to code it, because so many things were blocked off at the same time. Other options have already been unlocked with senseisad still set to true, so it doesn't really matter. I'm all for dunking on selebussy, (he looks like he listens to metalcore covers of anime OSTs,) but the computer becoming available really isn't that important narratively. Is it lazy? Maybe. But so are programmers.

I don't know if I have a favorite song or anything. Just listened to Iridium by Dark Tranquility (swedish melodeath) if that's your vibe and that's a banger. If you want some less(ish) common recommendations:

Sweedish Melodeath? Is that car crashes and other sounds of people dying over a lofi beat in Sweeden?

Honestly, it never made sense to block the laptop off in the first place. The content on the laptop is all meta-level anyway, not stuff Akira is actually doing.

Through the first two chapters, Akira would always get weird around the topic of pregnancy. When Ami talks about being inseminated, Akira gets up and walks out mid-coitus. When Ayane is laying the foundation to drop news of the pregnancy on him, he threatens to push her off the roof if she talks about being pregnant again.

It was so bad that I had suspected for quite some time that the real reason the loops are happening is because Maya had told him she was pregnant with his child, and he promptly jumped off the roof, and that's the leap that starts the game. Indeed, that was the core impetus behind the entire "Maya is pregnant" theory (that and the way she eats).

The only other reason I can think of for his reaction being so visceral is that maybe Sekai was pregnant when she died. Either way, something is definitely up with the way he has such a complex about pregnancy in the first half of the game (though that aspect of his personality definitely seems to have mellowed by chapter 4)
You know, I always consider content redacted in Baby Finches as Akira suspected that he might impregnate Maya since "the last time that happened, we [forgot to do any protection]". And immediately afterwards Maya told Akira that Finches couples were often inclined to commit infanticide for more intercourses, which probably insinuated where did the Unnamed Child in Trinity III come from. I just think it's obvious. And I personally believe both Maya and Akira jumped off the rooftop at different times, as it showed in Everlasting Mercy.
