I've been playing a bit more of the game and, unfortunately, I've just struck that bug mentioned several times in the thread where Yura won't Rest when ordered to. I prefer controlling my girl's rest manually because I like to keep full control of their actions, so I can make sure they've back to full health and energy BEFORE I find I suddenly need them to work overtime, and normally she'd resst whenever I told her to, but just now she's stopped. If it helps identify the problem, she was fine before the event where Mei loses her virginity and joins the roster of courtesans, but started bugging out after that. Maybe that has something to do with it?
Speaking of Mei losing her virginity, do you remember when I was the one who brought up the oddity of the Yaichi personally deflowering Saka and Yura before reopening the brothel instead of selling their virginities for a premium, despite being desperately in the red and selling a courtesan's virginity being standard historical practice? When you gave us the option of either deflowering Mei or selling her virginity to a hand-picked client, I couldn't help but wonder whether you did that in response to my observation? Although speaking of Mei, she presents a bit of a balance issue, because as soon as she joins the working girl roster she's COMPLETELY worthless- with every one of her stats being F- she cannot serve ANYONE, or perform on the stage, so it's going to take a week or two of work to bring her up to a usable state (especially as her endurance is also extremely low and she learns very slowly). Maybe she should have had a few days of offscreen "personal tutelage" by Fudeyo before her debut, so she can at least have a chance to get a couple of her stats up to Ds, kind of like how you have a week or so to train Saka and Yura before you open the shop?
Anyway, regarding the bits of proofreading feedback I've been providing recently... there's simply no point continuing to do that, because there's just too much. There's like a mistake every 2-3 lines, some of them quite severe (like in the scene when Fudeyo is deflowing the virgin guy and he introduces himself to her with only his last name ("Tokiuchi" or something), only for her to IMMEDIATELY use his first name ("Reiji") instead). The game needs a full, proper proofreading. Maybe it's something you're leaving until the entire script is done, I guess, in case there's anything you need to go back and change.
Oh but just 2 little bits of feedback which aren't script-related:
1) During the aforementioned scene where Fudeyo deflowers Reiji, there's a bug in the sex scene- when the animation changes to him holding her by the throat while fucking her, if you press the "Change angle" button it instead switches to the rear angle view from before, where he's visibly NOT holding her by the throat, and if you swap back again, it changes back to the previous front angle instead of the 2nd part of the animation as well.
2) This is more of a nitpick, but I think there's a model anachronism during that scene: when Fudeyo's pouring tea for Reiji, I'm pretty sure she's pouring it from a western tea pot (with the high fluted neck and elongated spout) instead of a Japanese one. Also, I'm not sure when eyeglasses were first worn in Japan, but either way I'm pretty sure Reiji's look rather too modern.
