I had to restart from scratch because I forgot everything..... I noticed many references to other games, is there a list of all these references?

Agree with you it's also another favourite of mine
The girls that are so well written
Hana has become my favourite and I'm normally not into chicks with tattoos
But she is such a big heart and her father August what can I say
He is such an enigma this evil nasty man but he still loves his daughter
I think you're on track to do something very similar with your stories
As I've said in my post about your stories Serenity and last human
My preference would be that you finished one out and then returned to finish the second
But I get it you're trying to keep both fan bases happy
Well I'm in both fan bases
I love both your games last human and serenity
I'd become so addicted to these games that is actually cut down my time watching TV
It's actually got me to read something I I haven't done since I was a kid.
I used to love reading as a kid but as I got older I got more into TV and video
This reminds me of the novels I grew up with as a kid
Where every choice you make I had to turn the page to a certain page number
If you want Billy to run away from home go to page 32
If you want him to confront his father go to page 45
These novels have brought my love of reading back
Something I thought that was long dead
And I thank every author whether I like their story or not for at least trying to do something they love
Yes some stories don't have as many choices
And that's fine that's up to each author
But of the storytelling is good I can live with it
So again to all of you thank you

Well, there is Melody and The Inn. There are mentions of Oppai Odyssey and Ripples. Lili was actually a character in early game of Oppai Odyssey. I asked Cryoxxx for the card when he was finished with her, made some minor edits and put her into the game. Oh, almost forgot, I stuck a screen in there from Pale Carnations in this last update (Trixy's scene near the computer desk). I have plans for more of these in future updates.
I also have some anime on the TV in there (actually, that might be back in chapter 1). I think the only anime I added some screens from is High School DxD (but there might be one other I'm forgetting at the moment). There are a few other anime I'd like to capture in Serenity, so more of that later. At the final ending of Serenity, I'll probably list all the games/devs and anime references.

Yep I did. That is my favorite anime of all time (how could I forget that?).

Depends who you ask.
There are some that swear it doesn't look any different but if you have your PC hooked up to a pretty big 4K TV then the difference between full images and compressed is pretty big.
If I can give my 2 cents, while dealing with Anastasia, you should expand on the wish-granting plotline on Earth, because, since there is no balance between light and dark yet, the people on Earth are still living miserably, hence the need to grant more wishes in the meantime. Also, even granting wishes should be "difficult", I mean let the MC face some struggle even on Earth.

Below is basically all spoilers so just be aware...

Anyone who complained about issues being resolved too quickly should see quite an improvement in that department through episodes 5, 6, and 7. I have spent a LOT of time writing, reading it back, rewriting until it feels right to me. It should be some of my better work (I hope)... more along the lines I am trying to do with Last Human, which arguably is written better (though still needs some tweaking).
That is true, LH is very well made, it shows that you improved

You know, Serenity is the reason I searched and searched to figure out what Arifureta was and man I'm glad I did. It's been quite a while now since I first seen it in the first Serenity when they went on the date. Now Arifureta is definitely one of my favorite all time anime. I like isekai anyway and Hajime was like a breath of fresh air compared to the usual japanese weiner protags that never understand when girls like them and can't figure out what to do even when they do as well as acting like it's totally normal for girls to treat them like punching bags for no reason. Ugh I'm so sick of those tropes. I couldn't care less if he's made fun of as an edgelord. If he is, then I guess I like edgelords in anime lol.
Anyway, really happy to see an update to Serenity, feels like its been so long. I don't care what anyone says about the enemies in the story and other gripes, I love Serenity so much. I can always go through the story and it's as if stress is just lifted from me. Fire, please don't let others affect you too much and stick to what you know best when it comes to Serenity. It's not meant to be a story where dude is on the edge of death all the time due to powerful enemies and such. People that complain like that totally miss the point. MC is a god for Kitten's sake. What do you want? Keep up the great work, I'll always be your fan, Fire.
I must say that I loved this game. The missions on Earth are something that I like about this game, because we know new characters and their problems, such as Estela and her sister. I don't know, but I would like you to add more missions on Earth. At least in chapter 2 V0.4 that I am currently playing, the missions on Earth are few; However, I think they will have more in the future. We still have to see the other girls to make missions with the MC, such as: mine, jasmine, etc. By the way, does anyone tell me if other chapters have already come out and am I outdated? Or has it not yet left and is only chapter 2?

There will be more missions on earth (more wishes and more characters to meet). There is only Chapter 1 (completed - download available in the original post) and Chapter 2, still in development, and recently updated.
Ok, then there are only 1 chapter completed. I asked how many chapters there were, because I saw a comment on this page about about 3.4.5 and 6 chapters, but I imagine that is another game. I only have some questions: 1.- Why has the MC not yet promoted to Samantha and Shadow? Of all the girls, only they have not yet promoted; At least that the fairy form is the ascended form of Shadow and maybe later, let's see Samantha's ascended form. 2.- Could it be that there will be some more history after defeating Anastasia, or after defeating it, the game will end? Well, if that question cannot be answered, it doesn't matter, but the other 2 that follow, if I wanted to know the answer. 3.- Do the girls who already had power, after their ascent do they receive another or change power? I ask, because some girls like the Morgana demon, before his rise, his power was to block barriers or something. When ascending became the demon of the storm, which implies that it acquired another power or change of power. 4.- If they change power or acquire another: What are the powers of some girls after ascending? I say it, because some are confusing, for example: the dragon girl (I think it's called Rin), after he ascended, sometimes he shows a power, but sometimes another shows.

Okay, I'm assuming English is not your first language. With that said, I'm going to quote your questions below, reworded as how I understand them, then give my answers. This way, you can at least see the way I read your question.
___________________________________________________________
Question 1: "1.- Why has the MC not yet promoted to Samantha and Shadow? Of all the girls, only they have not yet promoted; At least that the fairy form is the ascended form of Shadow and maybe later, let's see Samantha's ascended form."
My interpretation of that question: "Why has the MC not yet ascended Samantha and Shade? Of all the girls, only they have not yet ascended."
Part of what you are saying here is not accurate. First of all, Fade (as a fairy) was cursed to live in that form initially. MC released her from that, revealing her true form. Shade was never cursed and doesn't need to ascend. She is already a product of the 'shade' (her namesake) just like Fade is already a product of the 'fade' (her namesake). On a similar note, Samantha was already a succubus demon. But her power was taken away by MC early in chapter 1. He gave it back to her in chapter 2, episode 4.
___________________________________________________________
Question 2: "2.- Could it be that there will be some more history after defeating Anastasia, or after defeating it, the game will end?"
My interpretation of that question: "Will there be more history revealed once Anastasia is defeated? Will the game end after that?"
I am not sure what you're looking for (historically) outside of maybe other things MC might learn from Fereldan. But yes, the game will end after her defeat, but it will take a few episodes to end it (it won't just END abruptly right there). It will probably have a couple of branches where you can choose how to end it.
___________________________________________________________
Question 3: "3.- Do the girls who already had power, after their ascent do they receive another or change power? I ask, because some girls like the Morgana demon, before his rise, his power was to block barriers or something. When ascending became the demon of the storm, which implies that it acquired another power or change of power."
My interpretation of that question: "After ascending, do some of the girls 'ascend' again and some not?"
I think you are forgetting that Morgan was written into Serenity by MC's mother. Morganna is the 'real life' person she was created to look like. MC's mom wrote her into Serenity as a demon because she was angry with her... a problem she later regretted and apologized to her for. Morgan was always a demon, just like the others you mentioned. But to answer your question, yes, some girls ascend only once, while others ascended, then unlock a bit more power later - like Rin. Using her anger, she unlocked her full dragon form. Morgan was able to unlock more power (ascend) due to her desire to do good - not be a 'bad demon'. So she became a Tempest.
___________________________________________________________
Question 4: "4.- If they change power or acquire another: What are the powers of some girls after ascending? I say it, because some are confusing, for example: the dragon girl (I think it's called Rin), after he ascended, sometimes he shows a power, but sometimes another shows."
I'm not going to try to rewrite this one. But I'll answer with what I think you want to know...
First of all, there are six girls in MC's harem: Kat, Jasmine, Lena, Rin, Morgan, and Trixy. All of the other girls are purely external love interests or play a smaller part in the main plot - except for Lili (Valkyrie). Although not technically part of the main harem, she has a major role in the plot. Below are the main harem and what their powers are:
Kat - Seraphim Angel - Powers: Light of Judgement, All seeing (can see anyone, almost anywhere)
Jasmine - Flame Goddess - Powers: Everything FIRE. If she wills it, it burns.
Lena - Angel of Pleasure (Dark Lena - Angel of Pain) - Powers: Lena can bring pleasure and healing to any living thing with nerves in the body. Alternatively, in her "Dark Lena" form, she can bring pain to those same nerves.
Rin - Cat Dragon / Fury Dragon - Powers: Rin is the tank. Unbreakable, extreme strength and speed. In Fury form, she is larger and everything is amplified. She can only hold that form for a limited time.
Morgan - Tempest Demon - Powers: Elemental, climate controlling (thunder, lightning, water, earth magic, etc)
Trixy - Angel of Time - Powers: the only power of Trixy's revealed so far is her super speed. But she has another really interesting power that hasn't been revealed yet (and I really don't want to spoil that here).
For what its worth: Serenity will have 2 chapters total. Chapter 1 is completed. I am finishing Chapter 2. Chapter 2 is made up of episodes (my latest update added episode 4). I am guessing it should end up with around 9 episodes total, possibly 10 before the ending of the series.
Chapter 1 was is a chaotic mess, both in the writing and in the way I organized that story. It is possible that someday I will redo that one with episodes, better writing, and better organization... and it would be just a bit longer than it is currently.
I've only played the first chapter so far and I have to say that is more content than I expected as most of the VN's I've seen so far have much shorter chapters. Story wise I liked the general idea of the Fade and Shade and how it associates to our dream state to give us either bad or good dreams. So far my favourite scene is when Fade annoyed Demitre to the point that he removed his control over her as he couldn't take her annoying love behaviour anymore.

Ah, the scene with Fade annoying Demitre was a fun one, and favorite for quite a few I got feedback from. In hindsight, I really should not have called these "Chapters". Technically speaking, chapters in an actual book are more akin to "episodes" because they're short pieces of the overall story. In my next VN, I will probably switch to "Seasons" with "10 episodes" each (or something like that). It makes a bit more sense that way.
