Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.53.0] [Selebus]

[FireCazador]

Cool, more implicit evidence for a Halloween reset

Talking about Halloween. What kind of costumes do you all hope to see? Any cosplay from any game that you think could appear?

 

[TheGoodPastor]

More Hoyo I'd assume

I hope more Honkai than Genshin, Yasu was an adorable Clara

I've got a lot and get confused everytime I wanna play...

Probably some ZZZ characters. I think Molly or Teenami(reaching for the last one) would make a great Piper.

Speaking of Molly, there is something she said during Nodokathon2 that peaks my interest.


Back then, Molly used "common sense" to help Sensei move forward, saying that she would definitely know if she did get impaled during Lavender Green, and it is a very valid reasoning too. Even in the face of unexplainables such as Sensei's checkmarks or Sekai's suggestion on what really transpired that night, the claim "I would definitely know if I got raped better than you do" stands undeniably tall, though there is this one charming theory about Molly being fixed physically by the gods on the spot after getting raped (and perhaps presumably killed) so she miraculously might really not know better.

But if she did stay true to her claim or if this charming theory did become true, why would she still be so vague and uncertain about it even now? Why isn't the answer to Nodoka's question a simple YES it is true? Shouldn't she be saying just that if it's for the exact sake of her Supreme Overlord? What is going through her head when she is specifically targeted by this touchy subject?

To me, this at least implies that even if what Molly said back then does make sense, she lacks even the most fundamental confidence in her own statement, and even till this day, she lacks courage to really check herself. She would rather leave the real answer in limbo and drown herself in uncertainties with Sensei together or worse, she would actually lie to Sensei about what happened that night if that's what it takes to have him stay on Molly route. No matter what the case is, it doesn't necessarily mean that "Molly is no longer a virgin" becomes a lot more likely after today, it is just how surprisingly shaky "Molly is still a virgin" is, even to Molly herself (which is also something that gets repeatedly made fun of in this update).

I also have a hunch that this might merely be a case of Selly writing Molly's dialogue using viewer's perspective instead of her own so that he could keep avoid progression and I am just a massive overthinker, but I rather not think about that for now.

I don't think you're overthinking anything. To this day Molly still hasn't been definitively penetrated, except during Nodokathon 1 with the dildos, where she took a fairly large sized one without blood. I wouldn't put it past Molly to lie to Sensei about what happened. She was miserable without him, saw how much he was hurting, and just wanted him back.

Molly TSS is gonna go hard.

TSS?

Yumi in the T-Rex costume

TSS?

Transpacific Sadness Symposium. Last talk about it brought up how they seem to be about that person's greatest insecurity. I don't think there's another thing that's affecting Molly as badly, and I think the fact that Sel brought up the molly penetration during Nodokathon 2 is him nudging that fact to the surface so it's in our minds when she gets her TSS sooner rather than later.

During the dead month, committed myself to a full replay.

So far I have very little to comment on as Chapter 1 stuff has been sort of done to death, but for a game as convinced it has important things to say about the concept of religion as this, Selebus consistently makes incredibly basic mistakes about theology to the point where I just had to complain to no one in particular - confusing Trinitarianism with the Stations of the Cross is the most obviously egregious one.

Believe it or not, I am a persona fan. I kinda hate how short the last Halloween party was, even if it was good content. Loved the costumes. I have always heard Persona Makoto's voice actor in my head anytime I read lil Makoto.

Fun fact: In the Persona games and anime, Joker's cannon name is Ren Amamiya, but in the manga, he is referred to as Akira. Thus Akira x Amamiya = true ending confirmed!?

Very few religious skeptics I've found have had a deeper understanding of religious stuff besides "faith things are faith". I'm no believer so it's not like my understanding is any superior to that, but if you're gonna go further than "not for me", at least try to research the thing you're commenting on, there are enough modern journalists out there. Though, playing devil's advocate, it kinda feels like the usual psychological anime 2deep4me babble, so I'd be willing to cut him some slack.

I wonder if Noriko could talk Yumi into wearing a costume this time. If she manages to do so that would be Noriko's greatest feat next to getting her to ditching the sarashi. And if Yumi dresses up, she should be Ryuko Matoi from Kill La Kill.

We are at least 20 significant events for Yumi away from even the possibility she might consider getting dressed up... even ignoring that, to dress up in an outfit showing that much skin... would that even be Yumi anymore?

A man can dream, of course, but let's at least try to be realistic here...

but I think that even without her, she'd put on a hat or a mask or something.

A mask is the maximum i could believe.

I should've mentioned this in my previous post. But I was thinking more along lines of this for Yumi.

But you're right on that much midriff and such a short skirt might be too much for Yumi standards. We need Noriko to work her magic for this one.

Edit: I may have to take matters into my own hands, if we dont get a Yumi costume this year....

Okay so I just caught up to maybe 600-700 posts worth of content, good posts by many people.

My turn to pose a question: does Sel genuinely think Death Ball is funny? Does anyone? Maybe his sycophants that believe he can do no wrong? I just find it so horribly unfunny and try-hard that it seems weird. Like "lol I'm so random look at my spork" when everyone else is at it.

At this point, for me, certain dorm wars events just have to be taken as non cannon nonsense. It’s already been discussed somewhat how ridiculous them watching a tv with themselves from the future is, for the documentary on Death Ball.

I don’t find it entertaining, personally. Cringy I suppose. I consider Death Ball a microcosm of dorm wars as a whole: something that has become a “required” thing even if it wore out its welcome already.
