This reminded me that Touka specifically "knows" about Chika, Maya, and Makoto:

It also seems plausible that she's "aware" of others like Ayane, and probably Kirin, etc.

Nevertheless: Touka plans on cucking every single one of her "rivals", lmao.

Even straight up using them to make herself better at it, based off her asking Chika for advice and apparently shopping at Makoto's porn shop...

Touka's fall might be more of a strategically planned bungee jump. She's aware of what she's getting into, and seems fine with them using eachother.

Her only real gripe was when she thought he wouldn't fuck her because he saw her as a mother, but Sensei made it quite clear that he'd still fuck her:

So, right now, Touka is just preparing for what she and Sensei both want.

She's also aware of Kaori, as are Sana and Nodoka. Yasu probably just knows everything anyway.

That being said, I like that angle for Touka's arc because it would make sense for her to be relentless in the pursuit of something she wants, given her background. Good stuff ahead.

I know I'm late to this, but I'm reading up on the last few gazillion pages after finishing the latest update - and I just have to say this:

Holy bursh, having Pareidolia review LiL and giving it a 6/10 because Akira is a pussy, the sex scenes aren't hardcore enough and there being too much talking in between them in the first place, was not on my 2024 bingo card.

Anyone find it scary when it's supposed to be horror? Not me. I was more scared reading a Stephen King book and that was just mild anxiety. The best it made me feel was mild discomfort. It totally fails as horror.

So what is it then, a porn game? Well sex scenes are relatively tame and it's pretty vanilla. For example Yumi, a "main" character btw, she is there from the start yet you only get a non-consent boobs scene. Also the progression is lust and love points so clearly that's a big focus of the game, but it's pretty lackluster.

The third option is the game is trying to be intellectual, but it's intellectualism is only surface level. It's quotes and references from works that sound brainy without analysis. It's the image of being smart. Which also perfectly describes the horror, it's just random stuff thrown together without analytical thought. Stuff that "should" be scary without having actually thought about why it should be scary.

For those reasons in which the game falls short at everything it tries to achieve, I rest my case.

Bleh, pseudo intellectualism, the modern day cancer in nowadays groups of interest. I do agree on horror part. I fail to see how anyone in the whole wide world would consider this VN in any way as horror. There is simply no horror in it, even the whole "U-149" issue is not problematic or even controversial(unless you are someone who cant see a difference between a reality and a fiction).

The characters are trapped by demonic entities that torture and kill them in several scenes. It might not have successfully scared you but that doesn't make it not horror.

In all seriousness though i do wonder how Touka will play the game once she crosses the line.
Click to expand...
Touka just has to keep doing what she's been doing this far but with an actual objective in mind. That is, keep being an extremely mature woman that can provide the much needed mental haven for Sensei and keep him at bay, while purposefully keeping her juicy tits within his grasp but at the same time ever so slightly out of reach. Even if he is already sleeping with other girls, I think a part of Touka believes that "He will turn around and turn towards me in the end if I keep demonstrating what I can offer that others can't".

With that being said, I hope the next time Touka events arrive, they'd better be something like this.

no idea what they're talking about, all I see is the dude from indiana jones, commenting on the decision to use the ignore function:

I did the same but Crusty quoted him and so i clicked 'show ignored content' and then i was wondering who this guy was that i'd put him on ignore, i'd completely forgotten about him and his previous last comment was aimed at me and i hadn't even seen it. Quite the chuckle.

Yeah "It's going to be be buried", yet people still quote it 10 pages later and then still talk about it now.
I was answering someone who was quoting me.

I guess your still "chuckling" that it's going to be buried and no one will read it? People still read it as expected.

Anyway, other dude is like "door's that way feel free to unfollow the thread" well I don't follow the thread I'm just answering people who quote me.
Yall the ones getting mad because of a low review of your dear game.

Edit: I see some of you are blocking me. "Oh no bad review of my game let's block him". LOL
