I really enjoyed this update, and my main take away is Emma is now 100% beyond redemption for me.

It sucks, because I do feel for her and want to like her, but when the MC confessed to her about Emy and what that did to him and she says wherever that girl is; she can never ever come back from that in my book. Putting myself in the MC's position, I could forgive her for the bullying and hiding that she was Emy from him before, but from that point on, never. I don't care about what Hera said* or did, or what twisted version of doing it for him Emma had in her mind, that scene would destroy the relationship beyond repair.

I don't know if I'm the only one, but Hera's threats against Emma, especially the ones to kill Aine and/or the MC just seemed very empty. Right now as the story is unfolding, Hera has a great chance of forgiveness than Emma, and I want Hera to suffer, really really badly.

I can "buy" Hera's threats against Emma for the sole reason that people more powerful than her, like Glenn for example, are scared of Hera, so it kind of makes sense for Emma to "know" how dangerous she is. And also given for how much Emma/Emy has suffered by not telling the MC I can sort of forgive her, specially since Hera seems like a nasty ass person

Holy shit this update was massive and fucking awesome.


Loved the development with Emma, every scene with her in this episode was pretty good and not only because of the last update, it was good all around! especially the last scene!

Poor Sky tho, why you give with one hand and take away with the other Niichan, why? :HideThePain:
I had to create a Sky exclusive save just for her because of that.

Really liked the professional look with the outro and the small sneak peek, it's amazing the improvement every update.

Nope, kinda, not sure. :KEK: She's really pissed for now, probably temporary but the scene that lead to angry Sky was pretty sad.

I very much doubt, in fact I'd say I'm 99.99999999999999999 to infinity % sure she's not. She's just a upset because she was surprised. Once they talk things will come around. Hell if the MC is going to forgive Emma after this.. there is no chance Sky won't come around and forgive him.

On another note, wtf is with Shu and the point of it? Can't we just have a game it a normal male friend instead of some weird ass one. I've never understood the appeal of "Trap" characters and it makes even less sense to have one when the MC himself knows he's a "trap" character. Plus his personality is trash and looks like it will cause issues with the girls.

Great update except 2 big things.

1. that damn waste of time with the track and field. I love lily but what could have been a short scene that would show character development turned into a 20 minute waste of time introducing a bunch of characters that are probably going to be in some other vn and have zero relevance here. Lily deserved better. The players deserved better. And it ate up time and renders that could have been used to the main story

2. Fucking Shu. He should have been ended when he insulted one of my girls. Unnecessary drama and falls into the we can't have a decent male friend in vns because of stupid reasons.
Egotistical, self absorbed waste of vn space.

This vn is better than those two mistakes

Really great update otherwise :) thank you

Everything I write and put in the game has a purpose. I don't implement things for no reason.

Time will tell. Just my feelings. Not lip service but I enjoyed the rest of the update and am a fan, Being a non romantic revenge lover that means a lot for me to admit :)

The MC was a victim of bullying but now I think he "plays" with the feelings of all the girls ,I hope he understands. I love the game, thanks.

There are aspects of the game I really like and overall I've enjoyed my experience with it, but I really gotta say and maybe I'm in the minority with this, but the flashback sequences are just way too drawn out and include way too much detail that just totally derails the pacing of the story and sucks me out completely. Flashbacks have it in the name "flash" they're a snapshot of the past, when you tell a story to a friend you don't remember every single line of dialogue people spoke or the colour of your shoelaces etc. The fact there's no returning to the present time until it is over and basically no interaction between the MC and the person telling the story during the flashback just makes it even more jarring. The MC isn't watching a movie of someones memories, they're hearing a tale being told to them so would he never ask a question, make a comment or crack a joke? It's a special kind of sadness when a huge portion of the episode is dedicated to a sequence that you have 0 control over, is not being interacted with by characters in the present and feel mostly irrelevant to the current ongoing story. If we're going to deal with events in the past that have their outcomes fixed then focus on the important snapshots of those events, there is no need to try and develop flashback characters as much as possible because our PoV is one of the girls or the MC who we should care about already and it is through their care of these folks that we'd feel something as well.

oooh, track and field huh, with a rival too, nice... there won't be some sort of heart wrenching surprise later right? maybe a demon here and there? her rival turning out to have the same nickname as her? I mean MC already fits the good guy to a fault profile

as always great choice of music
