If we can believe the whole thing about belief then I would 100% buy this
That's was my theory for a long time too, but I feel like Ch4 and maybe Ch3 kind of discourage that line of thinking. It's almost disconcerting reading Ch1/Ch2 again and seeing how much more pronounced the clues for this were. Like it's unimaginable in Ch4 2025 to imagine Maya facing the screen and giving Sensei a rundown on the holy trinity. Obviously, changes of seasons and changing narrators blah blah mean different focuses, but it's just so... weirdly uncompelling for me now. It's genuinely like Ch1-3 and Ch4+ Senseis are different people, which does have its fair share of allusions in the narration. Note how different Sensei's posture is in the Yasu remake of going shopping with Ami.
Consider: In that one scene in Ch3 with loli Maya, why does she say "This isn't what *I* wished for?"
Honestly though, some great ideas. Maya's friendship with Ami is one of the more mysterious aspects of the plot and Ami wishing for a best friend would explain a lot. One slight alteration could be that Maya may have been her cat and she wished for Maya to be a real girl.

I did forget about it in the moment, but I was trying to prune the post length because I haven't locked the ideas down to something more robust yet, and the ideas weren't locked down yet because my in-depth playthrough isn't done yet (CH3.5 atm)
I could even rewrite the wishes I suggested there as "Make a world that makes Akira happy" and that makes it less clunky, while giving more room for monkey paw wish interpretation.
Looking forward to your big post after you finish your new playthrough

Well, we (mostly I) have a theory (more like a "tinfoil hat" type) about that, but it is too early for you to read it. Maybe you read that before in my another post, but I won't repeat it for you for now.
it doesn't trigger the cheat flag. So feel free to use URM as much as you want.
if it'll be Yasu... I will.
I have a theory. It related the thing I mentioned at the start.
Everyone thinks so.
Actually, that's a point. It's TOO convenient. it makes everyone (I mean in-game characters) who noticed it think about it. Also, I don't remember, but from this point many great things will happen. Great lore wise. Won't tell with who or what exactly

Gods don't exist, I've been saying this for a year.
"They're all all trapped inside of my head" is more questionable because we've seen multiple girls taking voyages to different timelines and WIRES knows where else.
TFW Lessons in Love successfully normalized a community denying the existence of gods and portraying them as the ramblings of madmen... Selebus's master plan has come to fruition

When I say gods don't exist, I mean in-game.
There's a 0% chance our own universe was conceived from coincidence, someone must've created us.
I'm just going to leave it at that because I can already hear the heavy breathing from some people.

I will not take the bait.
I won't be playing today and it will likely be like this for the next 10 Wednesdays.
Correct.
I had set the lust values higher, made a save, quit the game, took out URM then later loaded up the save all without clicking once to reach the next scene. That should have worked but maybe you have to click once to ensure?
Yeah I did have some issues with the animation.

Every time someone makes a post skipping Stomachache, Selebus is infused with even more power for when he inevitably writes a happy scene with a one off statement like

Didn't you abandon green path ages ago when it was merely Makoto raping you? Honestly would have been judged you harder if you went green here and red there.
Ok read a little more yeah being a good homie is green path so don't worry about it at this point. You'll even get something you'll enjoy a lot for this red choice.
So remember a week or so ago when you posted the old lessons in love banner that had their 'beta' designs? I thought this was that again and started thinking how dare we lose that amazing Makoto.
Some of these are pretty nice though.

That one time Selebus gave us a warning against the red path:
This adds a lot of fuel to the theory that a red path Akira might not be able to achieve the true end due to not growing enough. I guess it could also be a jab at the players, but I can interpret the "everyone else is growing" as every other character is growing.
That is supported by what Akira says about wanting to be present to all events and how they're all he has, and that he's afraid of being left behind (I think he says this during his walkback from the church with Yasu and Touka).
Also, this leads to the legendary theory cooked up by our own senior citizen barglenarglezous about the entire event actually being Himawari masquerading as Chinami just to get Akira to wash her hair (one of my favorite tinfoils):
Ami Himawari just wanted to be pampered
