Hi, I'd like to ask you guys to put your input here if you played the demo. These are just a few short questions, and you don't have to answer all of them, but I'd love to hear what you have to say.

1. Who would you say is your favorite girls out of the four (including Kazashi)? (If you'd like, you can number most to least favorite or something, your choice.)

2. Why is someone your most favorite?

3. Why is someone your least favorite?

4. What do you think of our protagonist, Suki?

5. Did you feel the scenes were too long, too short, or just about right? (This was the intro, so I didn't want to take up too much time with it since the rest of the game paths will be longer, but do you think it showed enough of the characters and possibly a feel for how the rest of the game will be?)

6. Do you plan or might be interested in playing the full 1.0 when it comes out?

7. If you didn't like this, why?

8. If you did like this, why?

9. Are you interested in playing the full version that will possibly be an RPG when it comes out?

10. Any extra input?

So here is my honest thoughts:

1. My favorite is Sakiko (I had to go back and make sure of her name. I am terrible at remember Japanese names), and I didn't really like Yoko. (I hope it's her name.)

2. She looks cold, but she is sweetheart inside. I like the way she is. Yeap.

3. I find her lame actually, she keep being rude and mostly passive aggressive. She barks, but she don't bite. She is trying to act like a savage, but she is actually not.

4. Well, she is a sharp character in some ways, but not too sharp. I like the logical part of her.

5. Inner voice of Suki parts could be less I guess, You didn't really mentioned stories of that four girls, but probably you will in the full version. I hope they would be interesting as Bowie and Adolf. :3

6. yes!

7. I liked the game, really. But I will be having hard time while playing it, because of the japanese names and their extras (-san, -senpai, -kun, ect...) . No offence please. ;-;

9. Yes, why not.

10. There will be a ending with Kazashi too, rigt? There must be! And I feel irresistible desire and curiosity to know about her inner world. I assume she will be deep and sorrowful.

Thank you so much for your honesty and response!

I can see why you dislike Yoko, but I personally love her, but then again, I love all of the 1.0 cast members. When you get to know her more in her path and the harem/polyamory path, you see her heart of gold and that she actually is a pretty badass fighter, but I'm not trying to make any excuses. She just has self-esteem issues and acts a bit afraid when it comes to letting people in, hence why she can be quite the Tsundere. Not everyone can be compatible with that personality, that is for sure.

And yes, Kazashi will most definitely have her own path and ends (everyone has at least 3 endings of their own) and even has two other shared paths and ends of a polyamorous nature. Glad to see you're interested in the poor sweet thing. Out of the 13 cast members, she is one of the top 5 with tragic backstories. Also, since you mentioned that you liked Bowie and Adolf's back stories, you most definitely are more likely to enjoy the twins' and probably Sakiko's. Sakiko I suppose can be seen as sweet, but above all else, she's apathetic and a bit insensitive to everything. But she is my tall, beautiful, goth baby and I adore how naive she can be. Sakiko is actually the second youngest of the full 13 cast, so she's actually pretty innocent to a certain extent.

Thank you for the hint about Suki's inner monologues, though those are way less frequent during the main part of the story/script. Each girl actually has a scene designated for telling you their backstory. Just as they all have the typical date scene, kiss scene, etc, they all have a scene for their past, hobby, a holiday, their birthday, a scene of malice (yan), a scene of vulnerability (dere), and a few others, though some of these you only get the real experience if you unlock it.

I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the demo and are interested in playing the full 1.0. I'm currently approaching the halfway point of the main game but progress will be coming faster as I am currently looking for a job and not attending college this semester, so I have more time to write, edit, draw, voice, code, and whatnot. Also, I've had some lovely and talented ladies audition for being voice actors for the full 1.0, so that is something to look forward to! Thank you once again!
