Does anyone miss the gym scenes? There weren't a lot of them, and they themselves didn't have a lot of content, but c'mon we didn't even get any scene with the newbies in and these gym uniforms are hot as hell.

Will be on 10/15, hang in there
Yea that and those cute little slice of school life moments are getting thinner and thinner; I missed them. I love what we now in the new chapters but I still missed them.

If you are arguing that a 31-year old having a sexual relationship with a 15- or 16-year old is ethically right, well, I question your compass. Also, Nodoka should never be held up as a moral authority on anything.

To be frank, I think Sensei should kiss a bullet train at full speed. Still, there are those that exist, that would and do disagree with you (and me). No matter what. Ethics vary. That's all I'm saying. Your compass is just a tool for you, in the end.
Also, I was using Nodoka's words more as a logical reference. I dont see much reason in holding anyone up as a moral authority on anything, when morality changes from person to person.

Random, but I wonder if we might find out why the girl with blue eyes came to Nodoka in a dream next update:
I'm hoping we at least get some answers about what's going on.

It goes without saying that many of the Maya moments show how she subtly hides her heart, but this one took me many cycles to headcanon catch.
Maya already stated that the picnic is a celebration for this iteration achieving the new record, and perhaps for herself as well for reuniting with the real Sensei.
However, setting this particular picnic requires Maya to go to Sensei's home to get the blanket. Since this specific blanket bears no emotional value to Maya and she didn't just grab one from Ami's dorm bed or just some other dorm rooms that were conveniently nearby, I can only surmise that she in fact went out of her way to check on Sensei during this reset as the actual main objective because, the man she loves has finally returned to her after a millennium, and she wanted this correct iteration to make it through more than anything; grabbing that blanket was just a by-the-way thing.
(of course this is under the assumption that Maya can "observe" Sensei before he successfully wakes up during a reset)
Or maybe it's just because all the food also came from Sensei's fridge and I am actually looking at this with a pair of massive rose-colored glasses. I found myself doing that a lot especially when it comes to these two. Like even the segment where Maya ate Sensei's breakfast on her birthday only leads me to thoughts like "Aww, this is such a secret couple thing".
edit: food is less likely the reason Maya went to his house though, as she would probably also tease Sensei about it if such thing was true. Plus, the whole Tsuneyo kitchen time immediately prior to the 3rd reset would imply that all these food weren't just in Sensei's place waiting to be pillaged

I'm not advocating for such relationships, but I do feel compelled to point out that most human cultures considered them ethically a-ok for most of human history.
Pairing a male who would typically be established in his profession with a fertile girl who has many, many years of child-bearing ahead of her just plain makes evolutionary sense.
We as a society have opted to ban those relationships, and I understand why, but I also don't think we should shame modern men for being theoretically attracted to fertile females of child bearing age.
Tbh, I think that getting rid of pubic hair is one thing that muddies these waters.

That specific blanket also might have belonged to Sekai, Ami's mother, and likely would have given Maya a way to register whether or not Sensei remembered certain things:

I also wouldn't put it past Maya to risk Sensei's ex girlfriend's things instead of her own, while convincing herself she's doing it because it's beneficial for her, instead of simply doing it out of jealousy. It is kind of a shitty thing to do to Ami though:

Meant to mention that considering Maya has tried waking up Sensei before, she's likely able to observe him:

Attracted to is one thing - I'm sure every man has found himself admiring a girl who is underage at some point. Acting on it is a very different matter. (I know you are not arguing that it is.)
There are lots of things that were "A-OK" back then that we rightly no longer consider acceptable.

These would have to assume that Maya knows about the implications of that blanket to Sensei in the aspect of Sekai though. Unless she could know things via unexplainable ways because Maya, I'd say the chance of Maya not knowing what that blanket could've meant (a relic from the past with jizz stain on it!) to any Arakawa is fairly high, as I don't see a reason or possibility Akira personally explaining this to her back then in details like that.
Even if she did know and the memory test turns out positive then what? That kick to the brain will be a million order of magnitudes stronger than what a sweetened canned coffee can do, and it would go against how careful Maya has been trying to be. The risk of breaking or mentally devastating him by accident is so significant that it marginalizes whatever goals Maya may have.
Same goes for if her goal is to "unintentionally and conveniently" despawn an object Sekai and Akira has used together. As someone who knew firsthand how almost irreparable Akira once was because of Sekai's death, I don't think Maya would wave around any prop with a traceable history in front of him if she knew what the blanket could entail.
(Edit: actually, I don't know if Maya also gatekeeps any information about Sekai in addition to information about herself. Though the mental consequence of mentioning Sekai is intense, it's some trauma-induced mental episodes rather than unreasonable brain-exploding hyperventilation. But I suppose Maya just decided to hide it all completely)
Plus, if I was Maya, I am not eating my melon knowingly on a blanket which the man I love once sprayed cum on due to receiving incestuous handjobs from his ex!!! If I want it gone I'll just trash it somewhere and find another blanket LOL.

I mean, she wouldn't really need to know more than it belonged to his ex in the past. The cum stain is something that I doubt anyone really noticed besides, you know, the being who seems to know everything, and pointed it out.
Not to mention, the only memories that break him seem to be Maya memories. I'd think if the blanket was of any danger, Maya would have gotten rid of it long ago. Even stuff like Sekai's clothes that Ami wears doesn't seem to break Sensei. At most, he just seems to black out.
Then again I do think Maya was likely just being petty. She's not exactly all that smart so the memory thing may have not even come to mind.
Also, well, we don't really know what Maya is into sexually (besides Sensei, monoamory, and violent sex apparently). I wouldn't be all that surprised if she's a little freaky, lol.

Being involved with minor is bad as underage thinking is still immature. But again, that depend on where that happen(location, situation, culture).

For a Compressed version of .34, the best you can do, is this:
Keep going to the previous post by selecting "DeSkel15 said", until you've got what you need. Get the Compressed .32 version, add the .33 update (might need to mess with events) to that version, then add the .34 update to it.
More like it depends on the minor's situation. Parents for instance, make a huge impact to their children when it comes to handling those kind of situations, but not all minors were coached in handling their morality by an adult figure. The least an 'adult' can do is not to take advantage of their weakness as a minor.
Doesn't matter if it's a different situation or culture. That's got nothing to with it. Adult brains are more developed. They should be responsible. That's why the term 'grooming' exists in the first place.
So the lesson is: it's a visual novel. We better touch grass cuz this game is fucked up as we know.
