If you have a Hana update, people who don't like Hana are fucked.
I'd personally prefer narrow and deep, even if a branch update ends up undesirable due to personal preference. Unveiling more of the story in that branch, accompanied by some hot art/sex is always enough satisfaction. In 4.1 Hana was fleshed out as a character with her lust, Cynthia, and after-sex conversation. The art/sex was also hot. In a potential Vero-focused update, I'd have zero interest sexually, but story elements would carry, like they do in her club events. Besides, your psyop skills might even convert people who aren't fans of a particular girl. Vero's morning scene in 4.1 demonstrates that potential.With the more branch-focused updates, I do worry about "wide as an ocean, deep as a puddle" syndrome that might impact player's satisfaction with an individual update.

With 4.1, there were the 4 morning scenes, Ian's visit, and the Alice/Amber ending. I think you've got the balance down. But for strict-branches, where a considerable amount of players won't be seeing the content, an idea could be to show what's going on with the other characters, without Edwin being involved. It's not used much in PC, but scenes showcasing Kathy+Abel's scheming are always shown this way, and the Alice/Amber ending was as well.There are unique considerations to keeping players interested in a game like you would an episodic TV show.
