Note that she comes from a foreign country (possible a former communist one) and never experienced life outside of the Academy. So it's totally possible she just doesn't know you can buy just one banana.
If she is from a Communist country she would be surprised that you could buy more than one banana, unless you were a high-ranking party member...

Also, I'm convinced that Shiro's "Daughter" is just an android he built to be similar to his wife.
That I could see as the only way to explain her not being the lynch pin of the villain team.

But, the Dev spent money on her Daz Model. And lord knows how many hours rendering her scenes.

I figure no dev is doing that for a character who doesn't serve some sort of purpose.

That same logic might apply to the annoying customer lady but in her case the purpose would be 'running gag'.

Chrys's mom's purpose is Supporting role in Chrys's character development

Shiro is a background character. An important one, but background nonetheless. He doesn't need a whole other character for supporting development. Not when it involves as much time and money as adding a new Daz model into the game does. So there's got to be some higher purpose for why she got added in the first place.

That's my logic at least.

it could be that, but I also think that no expense is too expensive when it adds so much visible storytelling, just hearing about Shiro and his daughter would make the novel feel out of depth (even though it's already great as is)

Funny that there is so much discussion about bananas and communism given the US history with the countries that grow them... but I don't want to get into that. Valentina is often fixated on unusual things and prone to going on tangents.

Spanish translation updated / Traducción al español actualizada - v2.025public

*** POST UPDATED 2025-JUN-02 ***

Traducción al español - v2.025public

Como siempre, hay que descargar e instalar el juego original y luego descargar y extraer la carpeta "game" del parche y pegarla dentro de la carpeta donde hayáis instalado el juego, reemplazando todo si os pregunta. El juego arrancará en español, se puede poner en inglés en el menú Opciones

---
Spanish translation - v2.025public

As always, you have to download and install the original game, then download and extract the "game" folder from the patch and copypaste it into the same folder you've installed the game, replacing all when asked. The game will start in Spanish, but it's still playable in English (a switch language option will appear in the Options menu)

I think you could achieve the same depth from just writing a conversation between MC and Shiro. Or even Shiro and Artemesia. I imagine an AI you're about to delete anyway(though Shiro presumably did not know she backed herself up) makes for a great therapeutic confessional.

You can get all the character development and pathos and good stuff without buying that model.

I dunno how buying Daz models works exactly. Maybe he intends to use her for a future project, if that's allowed? If so...okay. Maybe she was introduced just as a background NPC. But Occam's Razor says she has a bigger role to play in this story, and with so little time left before the finale there's only one role that makes the most sense.

She's too perfect as a convergence of motive, means, and opportunity. Too many clues have been sprinkled and the payoff of a well written story should always make sense. She makes sense.

The Roundhead Johnson/Jar Jar Abhrams school of thought in Story Telling...'Subvert Expectations for the sake of Subverting Expectations' needs to go the way Lily Phillips ability to pairbond.

Ok, please, PLEASE, let the crazy devoted girl who thinks you're a god join the harem in the future!
It isn't the most off the wall suggestion, as most people were convinced he was going to fuck her at some point when she was just a nurse. Plus they seem to be letting Lovestruck of all people move in and Felicity already lives there so why the fuck not?

never been big on the daddy fetish and harper of all characters to get it really messed with me ngl

expected Chrys to be the daddys good little girl type especially with history/pink obsession/self-image etc woulda made way more sense

really just was out of the blue on that one.

Aaah shiiii. She still kidnapped? For all this time?smh
I'm sure that she thinks the same thing whenever they let her regain consciousness. Evidently she spends most of her time in a coma or watching TV, so it is kind of like she's on a staycation with occasional blood draws. How they find an anesthetic strong enough to knock her out is anyone's guess.

"" The First Protagonist Event has been Replaced! ""

soooo

start over , again ?

i think i wait a bit longer this time
Probably no need to start over. Every replaced event so far that i remember has been in the first 10-20 minutes of the game, so a quick new game is enough and then your original play through can be continued.

yeah ,no

if those events have variables that are used later in the game for true/false; if/else you are focked^^

each girl and the mc has event variables like event01 ,event02 and so on
if one of them not done (set to true or here to value 10 ) you stuck
