I agree, it feels like a couple more paths have opened up since the last Shoichi update. There's obviously path C, which is the bad route, but there's also Path A and B, which are the good and neutral routes respectively. Also gotta keep in mind that in both paths A and B, you have to choose what kind of advice you want to ask from Saya, which means there's A 1 and 2, and B 1 and 2. Edit: going off from your original question, it looks like its gonna be paths A/B, then C. (INCOMING SPOILERS IF YOU HAVENT CAUGHT UP TO ALL PATHS.)


In both A and B, you still go to that date at the lake, but path C has gone in a completely different direction. Even if WOTB makes it so you somehow still go to the lake date (though I doubt it,) Yuu and Sho quarreling made them both realize that their relationship isn't gonna work out if they dont communicate properly. 

After a long time of avoiding each other, they finally discuss the problems that they had, even going as far as Yuu telling Sho that he's pushy (without the need of Saya's advice, but that scene doesnt even appear in route C.) 

You can tell how conflicted Yuu felt with the situation because before he made up with Sho, Yuu thought about how much he missed Sho and even wondered "Is this what love feels like?" (Btw, this was when Jun finds Yuu spacing out.) At the end of day 29, Yuu says "I love you" to Sho, which goes to show how much their relationship has grown, even after their quarrel.

Sorry I went out of course and kept rambling on, but I just love discussing things like these with other people (plus I just love the storytelling of Tennis Ace as a whole.)

At this rate, the update to each branch in Shoichi route is gonna be once a year.

They are all converging back together. Path A and B all pretty much end at the same point. There will be minor differences in events, but there won't be a major split until close to the actual ending. I am not insane enough to do that to myself lol

That's reassuring, I'm scared to imagine playing each Path once a year

Yeaaaaaah, I have no desire in doing that sort of thing to myself. There's a reason I kept TA at only three love interests, even if I wished to develop other characters. I'm keeping my goals realistic and not putting too much on my plate so I don't burn out of it.

Yeah it's better to put a realistic goal rather than planning a lot of things and ends up burning out.

Oh and also day 27 of Shoichi route A breaks for PC and Android version. (I don't know about the apple version) someone already commented the whole error log further below.

So youre saying that the C path is gonna end up going along the same sequence of events as the A and B paths, or do you mean something else? Because that's what I'm getting from what you wrote.
