I don't have much to say that hasn't already been said. The writing in this touching grass quest was simply outstanding. To wit, the latter part was the weakest part of the game for me (I'm allergic to TeruMoko), and it still made me smile, laugh, and even tear up.

The epilogue nearly floored me. Almost every line hit hom— erm, hard. Spoilers, ROT13: Nsgre frrvat Xbgbuvzr'f ivfvba rathysrq va synzr, erzvavfpvat gung fur'q ab ybatre unir ure pbyyrpgvba, V jnf n ovg pbashfrq jura ure sevraqf jrer rkcybevat ure hafpngurq ubhfr.

The only possible flaw that I noticed was that Kotohime seems to go out of the way to avoid sharing her name (the game's title uses a direct translation of her name, as do many of the characters, her dialogue boxes are labelled "me", and she leaves to go not use the bathroom when Mokou asks her for it), but she was fine with plastering it all over her newfangled "video game" thing. Is the implication that "Kotohime" is just a title, and that she has no real name?

Thank you for reading, and sorry for exposing you to such a large dose of TeruMoko. I really tried to make Latter Part feel believable even if you don't ship 'em. It almost felt like my duty, since I find their relationship really interesting, both in and out of a romantic context. And besides CILR Chapter 4, almost everything I've seen them in has either characterized their dynamic as black-and-white hatred, or radically changed their personalities to make the TeruMoko pairing work.

For the fire scene, all I can say is... it's not as literal as you're probably thinking.

You're right, "Kotohime" is just a title. Only Kana knows her real name.
