I don't know if that is how it supposed to be, but there are times when mistress train you to know what every singal means. Then later they see if you remember, like the headmistress put you on display. but the statues are still visible so you don't have to remember anything. I think it would be better if the status were not visible in someparts or an option to disable their visibility. 

Maybe only the Name and the Place where the has to be as a Hint. I agree that the Puppy training is really easy and sometimes boring this way.

Are you referring to the scene with Mistress Yuki-Ona or the Headmistress?

The one with the Headmistress is supposed to use the statues at the 'intermediate' level where she commands you, but does not explain what the position should include.

With Yuki-Ona, it may be that we need to disable the statues when you have to 'practice' what you've learned.

Thanks for the feedback!

I am referring to both.

i may be mistaken, but I thoguht that the headmistress commends you with hand signal. Each hand singal correlated a unique position. 

I think it would be nice if the game loop might look like this: the headmistress give you the hand signal, then after a very short period she returns to regular pose, (meaning that if you didn't look you will miss it). Then you would have some time to assume position, if you didn't she would ask you and you would tell her you didn't pay attention. After (for example) three stirkes you would fail and get a punishment stone.

I think that headmistress tranining you to constantly look at her hand awaiting for her next commended to follow immediately. Training you, so even when she reveals you to the crowd, you wouldn't be distracted by the crowd or her body is very hot.
