I mean, it's definitely one way to read the scene. This event also demonstrates for the second time how Ami is in complete control of Akira during blackouts, and that she can more or less control his triggers on going into blackouts since this one is caused by her (although it seems to be accidental).
Btw, we don't even know if Makoto really texted Ami. I'll keep an eye out for that.
The fact that Ami does seem to pretend that it's working on her, but didn't seem to know about this before being told about it, still makes me wonder about how much she actually knows, or at least thinks she knows.
Also, callback to Maya Prime being the reason Ami might kill everyone in this timeline, lmao:
question to one of the main theorist of the game who is your favorite character or characters? in no order I for some reason always wanted to ask moonflare that question,if for some reason I had ask it before, my memory is shit
Tier 1: Maya and Himawari (for being what the game is about, to me).
Tier 2: Rin (for being a wholesome disaster), Sara (for being real), Yuki (for teaching me something), Yumi (because I want her to be happy).
I'd also like to forward the question to the rest of the thread, which are your favorite characters and why?

moonflare did you sneak into my walls again? honestly speaking you pretty much nailed my favorites, and thank you for taking the time of your day to answer such a question,although I can't write as well as people here I can at least appreciate your posts, with a cup of coffee in the afternoon
Considering the near infinite number of loops where each girl has been Sensei’s toy of choice, and how each girl gets reset, who gives a shit about “virginty?” Like, none of these girls are virgins in regard to resets, so what’s the big deal outside of lore implications? Seems strange to me.
Do you know there's a ingame mechanic that actually measures virginities (or possibly sex per memory) of the girls you're fucking? It's been ticking upward since the start of the game, so the game itself cares (even if it doesn't care about horse hymen tearing)

My favorite girl is Ayane.
She is silly, she is smart, she is kind and she can be blunt, she is everything you'd ever want.
From the first moment she was the one who really loved you, and she's the one who will do anything for you. She is the realest one of them all. I will make sure she wins. She was never exactly my type but it almost feels like "I just love her and for me she is the most perfect"
My second favorite character right now is Tsukasa. She is almost an Ayane 2.0 if she had Maya's arc.
A most adorable girl who has been neglected and made to feel worthless. Has always had everything a kid could ever want but love, which is the only thing she actually wants. She lives in a state of perpetual depression and longing, and despite being able to quite literally order anything from anyone to remedy her lack of attention, she is simply too kind to bother anybody.
Honorable mentions:
Touka - She is an elegant princess, hourglass body, beautiful and smart. She brings a level of emotional comfort that nobody else can offer, despite being mostly clueless about a normal person's everyday life. She is just my type in every aspect.
Yumi - CUTE TSUNDERE. I just want to give her detention and hug her nasty attitude out of her system. She's cute and she doesn't know it, really down to earth and she makes me want to fix her. Also she's cute.
Rin - Depressed cutepie who is just a very kind girl. Many think she's like the best bro you could have, but she's really just the best kind of girlfriend you could ever dream of. Extremely openminded and more mature than given credit for. Visually my type.
Tsubasa - //////////////////////HOT MILF. COWABUNGA TITS. SHE'S A DISGUSTING DIRTY WHORE WHO NEEDS TO BE PUT ON HER PLACE. ALSO SHE CAN PUT ME IN MY OWN PLACE AS WELL IF SHE WANTS. HER AURA INSTANTLY MAKES ME HARD.

Yumi & Makoto: While part of me would like to the explain the specifics of why. I don't think I can without over sharing on a forum thread, which I don't particularly want to do at this point in time. However perhaps I can condense it, doing so I wind up at mostly similar feelings for both of them, yet still distinct in genesis. Yumi is significantly more uncannily familiar to me for example. But ultimately, much the same as what Moonflare said for Yumi, I just want both of them to be happy. Because Perhaps I Knew and know, all too well, the feelings wrote to be perceived within their characterisations.
There's a cork board in Sensei's room with a bunch of ticks on them. I've only seen it once on my playthrough but I know it appears again at some point when Sel decided to lore drop people.

I think this was the most defining moment for me to keep on being invested in the game at all.
The event, plus the song/bgm, had the most impact on me in this game yet.
It's one of the reasons i still to this day believe, that there must be some kind of human being behind the Sel persona, yet, a very hurt/damaged one.
That being said, there is a Japanese free for all song database, founded by the guy(s) who made the "Shining Star" song, for people to download (afair), and it might come sorted, to choose after your liking. Like: (Bar songs, love songs or whatever. If you get what i mean.)
But don't get me wrong. The day we get some kind of S.O. IRL revelation, don't color me surprised.
I said this more than once. This all might be, after all, a very obfuscated version of Sel's life/feelings.

Forgive me, I'm not the one the question was addressed to, but I want to say that at least 90% of the time, my favorite character is whoever appeared in the last scene I read.

I’m aware, yeah, though only because of people pointing it out to me that are way more impressive with lore stuff than I am; I never would have noticed on my own.
I wasn’t trying to say that the game doesn’t think it’s important, just that sometimes I get the feeling WE might think it’s too important. Like, in a possessive way, kinda. Sorta how a lot of H games go out of their way to make sure the player knows she is a virgin because of insecurity things.
EDIT: In fact, thinking about how the game is partly a commentary on H games in general, the importance on virginity to the plot is likely a deliberate shot at this sort of thing.
