Fuck you Selebus. I really liked this update, and now you run off to work on some shitty "Fan Fest" that basically nobody in the majority of your player base actually gives a fuck about? People give you their money to have the game continued, not for you to waste time doing something lots of people just don't care for. It's different when you take a break because that's understandable, but not when you do shit like this.

I wouldn't have minded the pacing of the last several updates if the cast count wasn't so bloated, so that it wasn't going to be several months until the storylines from this one glacially move forward again. This game needs an editor so bad. Or a business model that doesn't encourage stretching a single story out for 10+ years.

As much as I may agree with you, LiL pretty much follows the web serial format, but for VNs. The fanfest thing is definitely one of the worst decisions to date, but the model of the game works for what he's trying to tell. As an example, I enjoyed Worm, and it delivered a solid story, but the necessity of the timeskip meant that, even though the overarching plot required it, the side cast got shafted, plotlines got summarized, and even Taylor herself got pretty much reduced to a machine (well, that one was kinda justified in-universe, but still). I'd rather the game got fleshed out than just edit the thing while it's running. I do think an edit pass after the game is over would work wonders for it.

Given his theories on Tsubasa being a narrator, I am intently waiting for aramaug's comment on this update. Regardless, let's go because Himawari is the best character.

I have to post again after looking at the poll and the calendar cause I still got a buzz and I am both angry and happy.

First the poll. WHO THE FUCK WOULD WANT A MAYA AND OTOHA LEWD WHEN WE ARE STARVED FOR MAYA CONTENT WITH AKIRA. WHY ARE ASSHOLES VOTING FOR THIS!

It just ticks me off that Maya Prime sometimes feels forgotten now. What about the fireflies event? One of the best events in the game. I want Akira and Maya love! I don't want to forget her.

Sorry. Please don't flame me, I'm emotional and I like it here.

Ok, so the calendar.
Tuesday we get a completed Uta Love Journal. I got issues and I am so looking forward to this. Please let it be worth it. I have wanted this since Sel dropped plans for it some two years ago. I know it means nothing but if we must have this fan event, let me get something enjoyable out of it.

I really need to get out more.

I meant it's old as in it's meanings predate the modern day, it's meanings weren't coined with modern norms in mind, at least as i understand it, and all i was trying to say was 'music' might not quite mean what you take it to mean, you seemed off put by it, like it didn't fit, so i was trying to say maybe it's fittingness was lost in translation.

Ahhh, I see. Well, to be fair never have I ever researched this kanji's cultural development And not yhat I am off put by it, it is just a quite a classic trope in japanese medias, books, whatever, to hide the characters motives/their ending/personality/any other schizo author comes up with. Maybe I'm delulu and just hyped myself up about this, cuz as many I was thinking it was 明, so related to Hope etc.
Anyway, tldr from my knowledge using 楽 for music haven't changed its meaning, no matter the type of it. Buut, we need a sinologist to be sure of origins of it, I'm a zero in chinese

In Russian, we have the phrase "поесть стекла", which literally translates to "eat glass." Its meaning is that we consume sad/painful literature just to feel sad or pain, which in the end will bring satisfaction.
SO I AM GOING TO EAT SOME GLASS.

I often feel this is something I do.

also, in Karin events she mentioned Touka and now she is bonding with her... Since when though? But hey, it was interesting event, though strange one.

I feel like this was mentioned at some point before, that they hang out.

Updated. Fun fact: "final" event WORMGOD54 takes 100 days
Click to expand...
More evidence to stop even caring about the amount of in game days. Like I needed another one, even though in replays I get anxiety to make sure Ami's birthday happens on the earliest day it should.

Do you think its possible that Tsubasa is like Akira/Maya and is knowingly trapped in the loops? That she has been living through them for awhile? Sorry if you said that and I missed it.

I was going to be a man of culture again and read a "long poem about Timur in Uzbekistan in English" but... The one I found was 1587 Tamburlaine the Great in 2 parts by Christopher Marlowe and I was like "welp, gonna stick to Lil for now, it's culturally well enough for me".

First, can I just point out the fact that there was no sex this update?
Click to expand...
Technically, Sel added sex animations. But only because he didn't put animations in the previous update.

Edit:
ANYWAY!
Guys, let's bet who among the mothers (excluding Tsubasa, as she has some suspicious connections to supernatural knowledge) will be the first to realize that Akira fucks their daughters? And who will take it in a chill way?
Rika, Maki, Sara or Yuki.
