Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.49.0] [Selebus]

[LessonsInDissonance]

My bad, that was a bit of a dated reference, not to mention cringe and terminally online. A female, Japanese DrDisrespect is a little more timely

I understood the reference, and I am actually surprised not many people here know that scumbag, it was a big meme like 2-3 years ago.
I guess in 2-3 years everyone will forget about DrDisrespect and Chris Tyson too

It's okay, everyone here is a boomer. We can't all be teenagers who still actually enjoy life and get phat dubs on the fortnite ig {le shrug} /srs /pol

"...too young to be having a kid..."
Now that's a real nail in the coffin right there. I concede the Sekai point, then.

We all have our tinfoil moments from time to time, don't feel discouraged to put forward your theories.

... what does phat dubs mean ...

dub is short for Dublin, famous for their soccer team's winning streak. Phat is a Gaelic word for "great." It basically means "great success" and you can hear Irish soccer fans shouting "Phat dubs, phat dubs" at games. #Gamers have taken it to mean "wins"

A new Bo Burnham reference!

I'll say, that song (That Funny Feeling) can be summarized in its line of "the quiet comprehension of the ending of it all", I doubt it relates to Akira rn but perhaps Niki, with the name "Broken Furniture" to me says that maybe she will find something out.

Having been here for a while, I'm starting to think I might be one of the youngest and I am very concerned that this is the case

Careful lest you slip character. I think you're supposed to be calm.

Same, although I dont care what anyone plays, I just cant imagine any older person playing game like this. Anime looking stuff in general is here consumed mostly only by the younger people.

I'm actually 99% sure that I'm the youngest here and that worries me too hahaha.....

The whole Nozomou impregnation spree theory doesn't really add up. The only person that Nozomu could pheasbily be the father of is Nodoka. She has the Arakawa brown hair and the red, crimson, burgundy eyes of whatever Sekai's maiden name is. Nodoka's mother could be Sekai's sister or relative. And Nozomou could've knocked up Sekai's presumed sister and then ran off with Sekai. There's no timeline as to when Nodoka's mother got sick but Nozomou could've ditched Nodoka's mother after she got sick and got with Sekai and had Ami.

Kind of random, but I do think it's interesting to see different viewpoints on the game no matter one's age.

For me, Sensei is quite old, which definitely makes him more creepy in my eyes. I can't even imagine being 30, let alone being a 31 year old messing around with teens or...wizards.

Frankly, even someone that's Kaori's age getting with Sensei seems a little odd to me.

Meanwhile, I know others immerse themselves in Sensei, which brings out interesting PoVs. Those who don't, also bring out interesting PoVs. There's value to be found here, no matter the age of the player, imo.

I don't like the theory, but Nozomu could have been going around fucking other girls.

However, game's already complicated enough as it is, I highly doubt Nozomu being the father of anyone other than Ami will prove true (not even her).

Do not mock me or I will attack you, these hands have been the cause of death to many and one more won't make a difference.

I'm not even gonna be Akira's age by the time this game ends in 6 years, I'm not sure if it's gonna be weird for me to play this when I get there.
Is it hipocritical to beat it to teen girls if they are a videogame?

When it comes to Kaori I don't think there's anything wrong, past 20 years of age I feel like it doesn't really matter, my first woman was when I was 18 and she was mature, never felt like it was wrong

I agree that it's interesting to have many differently aged viewpoints. And I think it's rather important for Akira to be at least 30 in this story because, although still illegal, if he was, say, 22 (sort of Imani's age) - I feel like he'd be closer to a gray area age-wise. No disrespect to early twenties folk, but sometimes when you talk with certain 20 year olds there's barely a difference than when talking to a 16 year old.

Obviously the teacher-student thing is simply a no-no, but if Akira was 22 and he went out with a 16 year old it'd be different than what it is. Cause I can hardly imagine how a 30 year old would go out with a 15 year old when even having a conversation with one can be hard at times (but I can imagine a 22 year old doing it though). Tbh, regardless, I don't even think the sex would make much sense cause they simply wouldn't be there mentally... Even Imani and Kaori would already be stretching it as dateable in my eyes (age-wise).

Also important to note that none of this would apply anyway because, as Yumi points out, Akira isn't dating a student - there's no gray area (other than the supernatural one): he's dating 20 different people and is basically one step away from a sex cult.

Is it wrong that I kind of agree with this? The legal age of consent is made to protect minors, but it's not like everybody magically matures the second they turn 18
There's people who even at 20 years old aren't ready and should not get married, and there's people who are ready before they turn 18.
If it was up to me I would change the age of consent so that it was based on brackets and not a singular age.
As a matter of fact, I would raise the global age of consent from 18 to 20. (you are free to do anything)
When you turn 18 you can go as high as 24
When you turn 16 you can go as high as 20.
And probably leave it there.

I guess it depends on the country, but iirc there can be a difference between a certain age in which nothing can be had between people (a child), and an age in which something constitutes a crime if there is a report (done by either the victim or their family/legal guardians), which would apply to late teens. Could be wrong about this though.
