fr The most LiL line in this whole discussion?
So yeah—Green path purists, Red path defenders, everyone’s just trying to save a girl from the dark, in the only way they know how.
Io cute.
But also? Io tragic.
And you can love her through either door.
That’s poetry, man. That’s Akira and Io, right there. And that's the whole game: a world where hope is a risk, truth is dangerous, and every choice feels like you're playing 4D chess with your own soul.

Io x Akira x Wakana
That would be one depressing throuple—one can only hope it occurs.
It would go like this:
Akira: Fuckity fucking fucks!
Walana: I wanna die...
Akira: Thou shall perish by the might of my stallion!
Io: *blushes and relents herself to being a cuck*
Akira: *hallucinates* MELON GIRL, YOU'RE MY ANNABEL LEE!
Actually, if Akira and Wakana would spitroast Io... that would be hot

Well said. Our experience is resonating with the narrative beat for beat. We're all just doing our best with the terrible tools we have.
Reminds me of a draft I have sitting around... Not sure how I feel about it but it seems serviceable as a blunt version of a large part of the LiL journey.

Heard she was cucking us pretty hard, I only remember her trying to get it going with my future maid — Uta Ushibori.
Nodoka, Kirin, and Otoha are probably up there, since they all hurt fan favorite characters.
I'm surprised that Tsubasa isn't as unpopular though. She's not only negligent towards her children, she's actively trying to feed them to a child predator. And so far she lacks the redeeming factors or tragic backstories the others have.

hated Nodoka.

Edit: On other characters that are hated, Osako got hot and bestfriends after finding out that Akira is a predator which is odd to say the least. But out of the hated zone for sure. And I softened to Otoha during my last replay tbh, still not great, but the horny will probably try to save her as well.
It annoys me a little bit though that Selebus is hellbent on repeating how she'd make a great couple with Maya at every opportunity, which is cringe at best (because it'd make Otoha to only go after Akira's girlfriends).
I have an issue where the only thing a character can do to give me cause to hate them is by committing the unforgivable crime (/s) of making me bored.
To that end, the only character I find that ever really does that to me is Miku. Molly and Futaba might come close sometimes but that's because their personality-based fan service sometimes isn't my flavor. Their character development and what they add to the casts dynamics is great, so while I technically like them a little less than others, it's like B tier while Miku is down in F tier for "Forgot she exists".
From my perspective, she functions more as a plot device for Makoto than anything else.

Tsukasa, Tsubasa, Ami and Chika are all on the lower end of the totem poll. You can also throw Rika in there after her cock of blocking Rin.
Tsuneyo is one of the more beloved (and funnier) characters. Futaba isn't hated per se, she's just very boring.

Yeah I softened a lot on Otoha after my recent second playthrough too, she was probably at the bottom of the pack before that. I'm not really sure why. Osako's very rapidly becoming one of my favourite side-girls though - I always felt she was very realistically written (and relatable, personally) and I'm super interested in seeing how her and Akira's blossoming friendship develops after her last couple of events.
Me too, but at least it's only Nu Maya. There's a part of me that kind of wants it to happen just so I can see the fallout over Otoha cucking sensei lol

Huh? Where'd the Tsukasa slander come from? First time I'm hearing about her being a hated character.
You will feel sorry about her, when her parents die.
Chika?
Ami?
Tsubasa? - because she is a manipulative bitch?
TSUKASA THOUGH??? WHAT DO YOU HAVE AGAINST WIZARDS
I don't even understand why people love Tsuneyo, She's the most boring character to me, alongside futaba.

I personally don't have anything against Tsukasa. Some people just don't like her for her bratiness and for the same reason is why people "like" her.
I don't know how far into the game you are, but Chika fucked a lot of people's 100% saves. They were more outraged at Chika for ruining their save than what Nodoka did Yumi. That along with Chika's rapid Yandere descent is why Chika isn't well beloved anymore. I personally still like Chika, it just sucks to see such a beloved character's fall from grace.
Tsuneyo gets more interesting the deeper you get into the game and she's fucking hilarious.
I'm not going to get into Ami because this post would be longer than the bible. And you are spot on with Tsubasa.
Yeah, Futaba takes the crown for most boring character. It used to be Karin, but after something happens to her and she call Sensei out on his bullshit, you actually get invested in her.

I still like the new version of Chika, but tsuneyo never grew on me, she always stayed bland noodle girl to me.
I'm actually curious about what exactly makes Futaba so boring.
I know she is boring, she is boring to me, but I just can't pinpoint what exactly makes her so boring.

Futaba's just boring because she's boring, honestly. Sel tried to address this by giving her an elf fetish but everyone knows elves suck
As far as Tsuneyo goes I guess mileage with her would vary since a lot of her lines are comedic relief. I personally love her but her brand of nonsense tickles the fuck out of me so that's a big part of it
