I might start forgetting things, but when did Haruka learn his name? Is this really just an untold common sense now among many as we march into Ch4?

I liked how this was once treated almost like a forbidden knowledge; it often felt like a special advancement in Sensei's relationship with a certain girl when the name was revealed. But it would appear that either I have been massively misjudging its importance the whole time, or Selly stopped caring about being thorough in this particular aspect and start littering his name like free candies.

You've made the choice to groom Tsukasa at this point. Either you're grooming her in which case why try to skip events, or you've refused so there's no chance to do so.

I did. Start the VN using version 47 and still couldn't load any of my previous saves, rollback, or ignore. But the guide mod works perfectly, and it even recorded all the previous completed stories that I stopped at version 37, yet I cannot load any of the saves to continue. Goodbye to all my 40+ pages of saves I guess. Waiting for any share saves
Your current install has the guide mod installed into it? Maybe share one of those saves?

A bunch of these aren't the first time they've learned his name, just the first time they've said it. And I'm not just talking about people who would have already known.

On that note I'd imagine Haruka would have learned it moments after Maki left Akira alone.

Yes. But I meant the VN adaptation primarily, since giving me your fiction to read would obviously reveal you, and I don’t know if you want that. I figure if you’re interested in discussing stuff like this gme openly here, you might be an interesting read too, since it’s clear you are open to complicated and morally grey (or morally black for the most part in this game’s case) things.
Well, I use a pen name for the stuff that you guys would be interested in. ;)

The VN project stalled on the challenge of creating the visuals. But I can look at it again and see if there’s anything shareable.

I’m also happy to share my pen name! I have some freebies. :)

PM me then, if you don't mind, and I'd like to check it out. I'm a cosmic horror/weird fiction mystery fan, gothic stuff, that sort of thing. So if its in anything close, awesome, but if not, I always want to experience new things too. As for KK Studio, I tried making a demo couple hour long test VN last year, to see how it was, and found that it was pretty easy to make scenes and use Ren'Py for it, but making it look good was...a learning curve to be sure.

Tenchou Tojo. So that's his name... Verrry interesting, and certainly not a reveal I expected at all, let alone at the start of the update.
Tenchou sounds like 店長, which would be "shop owner". If true, that'd be his title and not his name, especially when Tsuneyo doesn't respond particularly to that name (but well you never know)

Something else that I found interesting upon replay is that when Nao-chan noticed Tenchou-sama's presence in shock, the next thing she did was looking down to what I assume to be her sketchbook. There has been twice now that her drawing match the later appeared abominations, so I imagine this time is a similar deal. At least for the first time, it would appear that Nao-chan drew things only she could see (which Sensei later could too) instead drawing something completely original and proceeding to spawn them. So, to keep the record consistent, my guess is that Nao-chan already saw Tenchou-sama once and has already drawn one Tenchou-sama before entering the shop, but somehow Nao-chan looked reaaaaaally shocked when she saw it though, compared to how calm she was when she pointed out where the first monster was to Sensei..........

And how did Tsuneyo figure out that is her dad? :unsure:

That I understand, and it is not that it won't make sense; it's just something unfavorable and narratively weak for me. Up until a certain point in Ch3, a good portion of the game revolved around Sense being nameless and him rolling with his name being just Sensei because he couldn't do otherwise in the isekai he got reincarnated into. In addition to that, there have been girls who unbelievably did not know his name some time before they either heard it from someone else or started knowing out of nowhere (namely, Futaba and Imani). Because of this, I am stringent when it comes to "who knows, and has the game demonstrated how someone knows". TLDR is that because how this game started, I semi-dislike the idea of his name becoming a common knowledge simply because people talk off-screen.

Given both Sara and Maki know before that point, one can only assume they told her in a conversation at some point...

Didn't see there was a new page before posting.

That reminds me. Just went to the wiki to check if there were, but there aren't. Is there a list of the japanese spellings of the girls' names? I kinda remember the game showing Kaori's surname in her door, but I'm not sure if any of the other characters spellings is known.
Edit: Wonder if Sara's is just katakana or a case of Umineko where 真里亞 is Maria.

You know, it reminded me the recent talk in this thread about how we shouldn't use AKIRA when we talk about Sensei.
Once we learnt his name we start using it more and more until it become a common knowledge amongst regulars.
The same can be said about characters in the game. Once they learnt his name it stopped being a secret, so they started using his name as something normal, despite the fact that his name was secretive for the rest of the game.

Damn I don't remember the Chika or Sara one at all. But now, thinking about it, was Sara when Tsubasa interrupted a nice Sara lewd?. Bitch.

Chika I'm still at a loss for to remember. If she knows why isn't she using it as evidence he loves her most?

I've been quite frustrated that the name thing went from important to just barely or not even noteworthy. I was looking forward to every reaction about learning it. I figured girls like Makoto and Ayane have known since before the loops. Maybe Wakana and that group knew from school but I was shocked when they suddenly started using it. If it was a important reveal, it sucks being off screen.
