- Start date
also... I'm scared to keep going I don't want bad things to happen to them and now every fucking realm of existence and being of power is converging on CJ or just.. that earth specifically or whatever... and all his friends are also linked to all those powers too, not even mentioning all the other shit that's going on in all their lives

I'm now... right before chapter 31 and I'm so scared... they're all going to be fucking hurt again I don't want it... why... why is THIS when my feelings and emotions actually fucking show themselves... this is where my empathy actually fucking shows itself... so often I just... I'm not sure I can keep going... I can't handle seeing them hurt

Notes as of Completing Chapter 5
So I finished chapter 5 and thought I'd take a moment to post on Out of Touch before playing further. I want to say, I like it well enough that I'm writing this at least partially like I'm playing a regular visual novel and not a porn game. Here are some thoughts in no particular order.
I laughed my ass off at the sky daddy, Chad Johnson Thundercock. Genuinely laughed out loud for at least half a minute. Best surprise so far. But... I also feel like I'm meant to take it kind of seriously, and that raises some questions.
Obviously there is some magical stuff going on in the setting, and the expanded spoiler description promises as much. But it doesn't seem to be an openly magical world. At far as CJ's friends are concerned they're living on “normal” earth, or at least that's how it seems. So what the fuck does CJ think is happening? I know he's an oblivious guy, but he must have some thoughts on this weird shit, right? Jamie claims he talked about seeing his father in the sky, though he evidently didn't talk about it in a, “Magic is real, bro. There is in fact magical shit going on!” way.
By the way, I've got a working theory that only supernatural characters get voice acting, to show that they are beyond the bounds of 2D normality. So far we've had sky daddy, Mountain Fox, and mysterious cursed girl in the park. If that theory is right, CJ and the girls might eventually get voice acting, but only when they explicitly graduate to “magic people”.
On another topic, interesting that a guy as gregarious as CJ doesn't seem to have made any friends in the past five years. I know he was focused on reuniting with his old friends, but the flashes of him “in training” are pretty much just himself and Sarah. And of course, Sarah, she's a whole thing. I suspect she's somehow connected with “Mountain Fox” we saw in that psychedelic dream vision, given their mutual response to their loved one preparing to depart. On the other hand, CJ continues to believe she is his sister because that's how he introduces her to his friends and he seems basically incapable of lying to his friends or trying to deceive them in any way.
Also, Sarah shared a room with CJ? But when she brought him to the beach house she claimed it was too big for the two of them. So it's an oversized place that only had one bedroom? And apparently there were no guardian figures other than Sky Daddy making the occasional appearance? I guess beach gods... have plenty of money? I feel like there was a lot about CJ's time in America he yadda-yadda-yadda'ed over.
Maybe I should do a character review.
CJ – I like him. I like his cursing and occasional crudity along with his kindness, that he's a Bro, and that he's oblivious to a lot of things but occasionally clever. (Apparently he's good with math?) It's also interesting that while Victoria is very aggressive and willing to threaten people, I don't think we've seen CJ reach for violence yet, even when confronting the cursed girl in the park. He could fight, but he's not salivating for a good fight.
Jamie – Jamie is pretty hot, actually. She's got that reverse-trap “oh won't someone (CJ) make me a woman” energy around her. She's obviously incredibly sweet to her friends, but I wonder if there's a harder side to her the story hasn't shown us yet. If she's really in on-the-job training to take over a massive conglomerate, well, that's a job that sometimes requires you to be a hardass. Then there's her relationship with her parents, whom she seems to admire as passionate idealists who married for love, tee-hee. Except... well obviously it was their idea to present Jamie as a boy to her grandfather and their idea to push Jamie to pretend to be a boy her entire childhood. Literally they're using their only child Jamie to sucker in her grandfather's inheritance for a massive payday, arguably exactly the same thing Leah is furious with her parents for doing to her! But while Leah despises her parents, Jamie's parents have been so clever about it that they seem to have convinced her this was all Jamie's idea. Makes you think, huh?
LEAH: My parents are constantly on my ass to get good grades and have perfect manners so they can marry me off. Oh how I hate them.
JAMIE: My parents made me deny my gender all the way through high school so we can inherit the family money, but hah-hah, they're just artists who don't care about money!
Victoria – Well she's sort of the “main girl”, isn't she? All the other characters seem to think so. She was literally the first one to have sex with CJ. (Which surprised me; she had her skirt on when running out of the house so I assumed they hadn't gone 'that far' but later she says she had taken off her underwear so I guess they got to the penetration but not the ejaculation.) Anyway around chapter 2 I was like, “Nice try game, but it's going to take more than big boobs and thicc thighs to sell me on Victoria. You can't just have Jamie declare her the prettiest.” But then, well, her “going out clothing” was incredibly hot and her scenes with Leah and CJ were so emotional, and damn it she kind of won me over as very attractive after all. I'm actually worried what's going to happen with her in Chapter 6 as Kieran hits Victoria's weak spots hard.
Speaking of sexual assault, it's pretty clear that Victoria's father tried to rape (or at least something close) Victoria, seeing her with the face of his dead wife. I have to wonder how far that one went. As far as Victoria and CJ? But the worst thing is that there were indications in that scene that something supernatural was going on, and maybe it wasn't her father's 'fault' after all. That would crush her all over again.
It's interesting to compare Victoria's relationship with Leah versus Jamie. Leah is clearly her best friend, her forever accomplice. Jamie is more like Victoria's madonna, a living symbol of her innocent childhood. Victoria could have an argument with Leah, and it would suck but whatever they'd make up. Victoria couldn't have an argument with Jamie because she could never raise her voice to Jamie. (Watch the game prove me wrong, just my impression.)
Leah – Leah is not exactly the “bratty girl” archetype, but she has pieces of it. She's the girl in the hentai who calls the men dogs and puppies. There's no mistake about why she's sexy, her heart secretly fluttering for CJ in that “I hate all men... but maybe not him” way. What actually struck me about Leah was the comment that she and Victoria treat Teresa and Ashely almost like 'daughters'.
After reading that, when Leah said that “I want to go out tonight” was a secret code between the Victoria and herself, I understood exactly what it meant. It was a code for “I want to have sex with you tonight.”
...okay obviously it wasn't and I was wrong, it was a shoplifting thing! But it sure sounded like a sex code, and for that moment I was sure that Victoria and Leah were lovers. Then they backed off in later scenes with the “sisters” stuff. I guess maybe that wouldn't have gone over well with the audience for this game, that it would be considered ntr or something which people in this forum seem super sensitive about. But I don't know, if they're all going to end up fucking anyway it would have been interesting to have Victoria and Leah in a preexisting sexual relationship.
Ashley – All right, we saw more of Ashley in Chapter 4 and 5, and I am down for her “senpai is mine” attitude paired with some cute incompetence. She literally walks into a pole, can't avoid taking Sarah to tea, and everyone in their friend group treats her like the kid sister. In a way she seems the most innocent of all of them, like even when she's drooling over CJ and his tallness it's in a very tween way where I'm not sure she's capable of imagining further than kissing and having him pat her on the head and pay her attention. Leah may call CJ a dog, but Ashley is the puppy.
Teresa – Not that much going on with her yet, really. Of course she's in love with CJ like all the girls are and he makes her feel 'safe' but that's about it. She's shy and basically pulled in the orbits of everyone else. Her model is very pretty, but she doesn't really stand out yet.
Sarah – Sooo... A lot of mystery here, and yes I did catch her reference to “human clothing” like what the fuck are you, Sarah? I guess my question would be, are she and CJ having sex? I don't think so; CJ insists that she's his sister and we already covered that he wouldn't be saying that unless he thought it was true, and he doesn't seem to have jumped deeply enough into magical psycho-sex to be banging his sister. But if she is Mountain Fox... Well I guess we'll have to see where all this goes.
Kieran – Seems to be the villain of the second “arc” if we consider Chapters 1 through 4 and reconciling CJ with Victoria to be the first arc. Evidently cousin to Ashely and sister to the twins we met earlier, Haruka and Shiroi. (It's now clear why the twins felt they needed to apologize for Kieran.) Her full deal hasn't been revealed yet, but she's certainly acting like a bitch, right? Will Victoria actually punch Kieran in her whore mouth? I guess we will see.
Lindsey – Creepy, big-boobed stalker girl. Probably a stinky girl who doesn't bathe enough, if we buy the archetype.
Anyway, I am sure all of this will be hilarious in ten chapters, but it's a mark of my respect for the story that I wanted to take a break after the first five chapters and really think through what my take is on the characters and the events so far. Maybe I'll check back in later with updates on my thoughts as I play further.

Please, keep this up, this is a very interesting reading... or better, join the discord, we usually make new threads for people to share their opinions in a thread where they dont have to be exposed to the spoiler channel.
so I'm now mid chapter 41 I think... maybe the start? idk.. why do they all have to hurt so much... why does it make me hurt so much..?

yeah this VN is quite the rollercoaster so prepare for some more off that... anyway i do think we'll get some kind off happy ending but as to how that will look is kinda a mystery
Haha this was a fun read, i wont comment to not spoil you and it makes me wish i could experience all of it fresh from the start again.
I will spoil you one thing tho: Ashley can imagine WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY more than headpats and kisses
It kinda depends for whom it will be a happy end tho and how you define it, is it a happy end for the girls if they fusion back with their greater beings who are fixed than for example?
I still kinda feel were playing elinath's story here and not "cj's"

Holy shit.
I played this game back when the android version ended right after the fist sex scene.
Remember liking it, but being kinda jealois that the pc version was like a dozen updates or so passed that point. Stumbled across the game again just now and figued I'd take a look to see what kind of progress the android port has made...
6 apks totally over 10gigs. Holy fuck dude, you gonna leave any room for the OS?

ok so.. the volume 3 "recap" feels extra fucking wild because of how relatively recently I completely ripped that game from my life and I'm not sure I reaaally appreciate the reminder especially when it's... just so on the the nose

so.. I'm in chapter 52 now and FUCK it's so damn hot when they actually fucking EXPLAIN what the shit just happened...
like.. I've been in tears for... I'm not sure how many hours this time. at least 3 hours.
anyway, genuinely the sexiest damn thing this game has ever done is legitimately explaining in a manner that makes sense for the characters and the situation

Pretty sure youre in the wrong thread. There's like four voiced characters in the entire game, and only for select scenes.

Post-Chapter 6 comments
Ashley's voice rings out. "Pals? Hey, did someone forget to text me or something? Just struck by a sudden sense I've been completely left out of an important bonding experience. Nakama? You all out there?"
Also, I did investigate Leah's claim that CJ's room was on the second floor so how could Lindsey have seen anything. Despite replaying the original scenario and then the second go-around where we follow Lindsey, I cannot confirm anything. Except that Lindsey hadn't transformed into a cat or anything, I guess.
If Lindsey can levitate or something and is a magic person, maybe she sensed something magic from Leah's anger and that's why she got so scared? I could not say. (Lindsey's boobs sure are magic, though; damn those things are huge.)
Weird that Leah called Kieran "Sarah". Kieran and Sarah don't seem very similar.

Post-Chapter 7 comments
(and that's probably it for tonight)
It's the Ashley and Sarah show! Or at least, the first half of the chapter is their spotlight. The locker room scenes are very tasteful, breasts kept out of frame and no more than shots of their bare asses. Ashley thinks Sarah is going to steal her spot as the athletic genki girl, not realizing that Ashley's actual role is the cute lovable loser girl. (Also, Ashley shows she goes all in on her color scheme by painting her toenails green too.) Sarah continues to be weirdly intense about CJ, or at least it would be weird if their last five years hadn't been lived under magic sky daddy so who am I to say what is weird?
Afterwards the whole gang gets together and reconciles, with CJ's dead phone battery (and yet he managed to text everyone else) being blamed for Ashley not being there last chapter. All hug! Kieran promises from a rooftop that this is not over, though who knows what she even expected to accomplish. What is that thing she wears on her neck anyway, it looks like a weird möbius strip.
Second half is an extended date between CJ and Victoria, and of course I hit all the locations and dialogue trees and had CJ kiss her at the end like a man. Though in inspecting the City Center, I did see one line of text I hadn't seen before. "Since the 2050's Kamogawa has been built up..." Wait, what year is this again? If we're in the back end of the 21st century shouldn't the cell phones be a little more impressive?
Well, that's the end of Chapter 7. All is well and I'm sure they live happily ever after as all conflicts seem resolved and a bright future lies ahead. Short game, everybody, but sometimes a story goes only as long as it needs to go and-
(Aide rushes up and whispers in ear.)
...wait what do you mean there are dozens of more chapters?
