haruki's gimmick is that he tries to play the tough guy act and tries to deny his "feelings" . But you can only act for so long before you break character and show the "true you". It has been shown before through both Haruki's and Shoichi's route that Haruki respects and admires Shoichi, he just doesn't want to show his emotions to the people around him because he thinks that makes him a " mushy person" or masks those feelings through insults. The news probably were so shocking to him that he broke character.

Yeah, my bad! The move is actually Bc5 for Black. This is probably a one in a lifetime opportunity for me to see chess being used in such an intriguing way in other forms of media to portray it not only as the plain old "old people game" but also how deeply connected to real life as a whole is and I can't help but be excited! Hunter's sequence related to pieces sacrificing themselves to protect the "King" due to them actually having no other choice actually got me thinking as to what is he actually referring to. I can't wait for the future updates! Again, thank you PtK Gang for offering us such amazing characters and story. <3
I might have figured it out now! My mind is clear now after this reply and this was a very fun "puzzle" (albeit not very hard now that I muse back over it now lol) to solve so here it is :
White - Black
1. d4 - e5
2. dxe5 - Bc4
3. Nd2 - Qh4
4. Ngf3 - Qxf2#
Reasoning (+ explanation for people that dont play chess) :
1. d4 (White Pawn to d4) - "I move one of my pawns into the center of the board."
e5 (Black Pawn to e5) - "He makes his first move, challenging my pawn."
2. dxe5 (Pawn takes Pawn on e5) - "I instinctively take his pawn off the board with mine"
Bc4 (Bishop to c4) - "That's... the bishop. Diagonal moves only?"
3. Nd2 (Knight to d2)(or horsey :3) : "[...]moving the horse-shaped pieces early in the game is a good strategy... / And protecting my king is good too. Given those facts, I make my move."
Qh4 (Queen to h4) - "[...] bringing out another important piece." [...] "The queen! That can move in any direction, right?"
4. Ngf3 (Knight from g1 to f3) - "I think carefully about my next move. Maybe another horse move? I could even make a threat against his queen with that idea."
Qxf2# (Queen takes Pawn on f2 and Mate) : "[...]he catapults his queen straight towards my king."
Amazing stuff. Thanks for giving chess some attention in the FVN scene too. (i would like to meet these chess buffs and i hope there will be more chess in the future updates :3)
massive 馃鈽濓笍 moment but in the chess game Leo and Hunter play against each other i haven't found any possible move combination to lead to a checkmate in 5 or less moves in which the moves narrated work. I know this probably doesnt mean a lot to other people since i haven't seen too many people playing chess that also play this vn but i just thought it was funny to point it out lol
Honestly when the Day 5 and Day 10 choices (Shoichi/Keisuke/Jun choice) appeared I initially picked only Shoichi (FeelsBadMan) and put all Prologue Saves in the Shoichi Block. After that I just played the other 4 picks without saving any. So whenever I want to go back and look at something I just *try* to find a save close to the day the choice appears and use the Skip button.
i was wondering if there is any way to access all files from the game such as audios, backgrounds, sprites and cgs. there are vns that allow the user to see everything but this one apparently doesnt? unless i do something wrong or i missed something very obvious. relatively new to the furry vn scene
