In regards to Natsuki, I had never heard the term "tsundere" before. Now that I've looked it up, she certainly doesn't leave the cold hostility for very long. Which made her less apealing as a character to approach for me. 

With Yuri, I didn't notice the over sensativity, if anything, I enjoyed the mystery about her. I thought Natsuki had a hair-trigger sensativity with almost everything though. With respects to Yuri in act 2, I can't really blame the Yuri character for what happens considering all of the changes that are forces onto her and the others. I actually tried my hardest to see if act 2 would have similar results to Natsuki as well. Regardless if you focus your poems on her in that act, it still goes back to Yuri, which did lead to some interesting new converstations but no interactions. I thought a focused, act 2 Natsuki would be more [forceful] or so.

I've seen my share of tsunderes. For a long while I hated them, but then I realised that only the overly violent ones are really annoying, with their violence bordering on abuse... but the mild ones are actually nice...

I'm not sure how you didn't notice the over sensitivity... I mean, she overreacts to a lot of things... she's obviously not very confident. I normally don't mind that... since I have to deal with it often enough, but I guess it's easier once you're invested in the person... Or, who knows, maybe it's something else... I can't put my finger on it, sweet as she is, I think I like Yuri least... (not to say I didn't like her, I still did, just not the most).

Yes, Natsuki is sensitive too, but I just consider that part of her tsundere trait, as opposed to Yuri's stand alone sensitivity.

I wish I could meet Natsuki's papa to give him a piece of my mind... and fist.

I wish we'd have a normal version of this, where we could actually go through with the character stories... it's funny how attached I got to the characters in such a short time, especially since I normally don't like VNs.

Hmm, yeah, probably since I was invested in Yuri first, I overlooked her sensitivity. I probably read too quickly as well and didn't fully grasp what was happening either. Thinking about it now, maybe I just took the sensativity as a lack of confidence and not knowing how to properly act with people (which was touched on, later on in the game).

For other tsundere characters, usually when that tough character exterior is broken down, that's it and the caring person is revealed. Natsuki would pretty much throw up the same strength as before once the moment passed. I think thats why I had the hardest time with her.

I don't mind the VN types but I generally get pretty bored of them quickly. This one held my attention till the very end (a few times) and was satisfying with all the easter eggs thrown in. It probably helped that it was also an ARG and that kept my attention.

In any event, it was a fun game and I look forward to TS's next game.
