to me the conditions that made this route different are crystal clear:
1-Satoshi this time goes the extra mile for Shizuka and manages to capture her attention, then Arato pushes him into a corner so he offers him his ex-gf and uncle for whom he has no affection at that point. The are methodes are morally questionable? sure but i would hardly call his motivations or even action evil, spitefull and oportunistic at worst.
- The problem is that there is no build up or diversion in the path. It is literally frame by frame, word by word up to the same end, and the only thing that separates this paths is simply one dialogue choice that has nothing to do with the pink hair girl. And the choice is literally scene away from the update? I'm sorry but that is just lazy writing. And Drugging his Uncle? Selling off his GF into slavery? And leaving with Pink hair girl who also plots his GF demise, is the GF of his nemesis who make them took drug, swinging, and literally also just bangs his uncle as well. I'm sorry MC turnt evil.
And for those that think he doesnt have the spine to do it, never has and never will, let me remind you that in one end he exposes Mary and Kendo, on another he get away from all the swaping thing and ends things with Mary and on the only acces to his own route, he punches Arato to get him away from Mary.
- Sorry but that is weak ass fuck. He punch bad guy yeah while he not looking. If Mr. MC is so brave don't just beat him down right there? Even this ending was terrible for me because it makes no sense. Would of been better had he ask the Uncle for help or he goes straight to the authority or something. The one him running away makes zero sense because he was to weak to face it and say "how bout no" to the swinging in the first place. He made his GF swing! It was his fault that she fell. To all of sudden now he got the guts to say no to it all is just lazy writing. His character is suppose to weak in my opinion. Or if he is to become strong then at least let him build that up along the way. Not just, all of the sudden after all that swinging and being pathetic, oh I man up now. Like come on.
2- Both in this route and on Aratos route, Shizuka shows that she feels neglected by Aratos obessesion with Mary. So when Satoshi offers her a different sexual experience that she has been craving and a emotional connection, she goes for it.
- Then update it first or something. Rewrite the build up or something. Because in bad guys route, Pink girl play MC like fiddle. Sorry but no matter how much neglected you wanna say she is, she still help the bad guy in corrupting the FMC in ALL the paths, especially bad guy route. She stay loyal all to the end and used the MC, treat him like a beta cuck. In this update which follows the Fatman route, play exactly same as the Fatman route. The only different is all of the sudden, this happens.
3- Arato has been established both in this route and on his, to develope an obsession with Mary. Couple with his more subtantiated hatred for Kendo, when Satoshi offers Mary in exchange of Shizuka it becomes a no brainer for him. Why? Because he is a sore loser and he lost to Mary and Kendo, and regardless of what he decides he already lost Shizuka to Satosh, so might aswell try to get a win where it matters (for him)
- Bullshit! Again there was zero build to this. Literally scene by scene, dialogue for dialogue the same ending, just talk no justu this happens. THERE NEEDS TO BE A BUILD UP.
4-Kendo and Mary are both under the influence of drugs and being constantly attacked on their insecurities day by day until they finally falter, the text goes through great lenghts to illustrate what aspects of their mentality are being targeted by Shizuka and Satoshi. Kendo has literal ghosts of his past coming to haunt him.
- Sorry man this is just dumb ass writing. Why the hell would Fatman and FMC let themselves get in that situated in the first place, not once but twice! Alert bells should been ringing! Why the hell would they even wanna associated with the bad man after he drugged MC of all people! AND FMC! Then fatman came in punching bad guy and seeing pink hair girl there too! Do you guys understands now with back stories and character consistency? All of the sudeen Fatman and FMC is stoopid!? Oh lets go back to the villains. Surely nothing will happen. What!? Maybe if that didn't before then it makes sense. But no this all already happens and MC still make a deal with the bad guy? Fatman and FMC still associate the bad guy? Really! What character path are we talking about here?
