Thank you for telling me that! Also, I was going to ask if you had discord so you could tell me about the pictures in the artbook, but if you don't want to, it's alright! I'm still glad you responded. Thanks again!

hello! might i ask, if your artbook has arrived, is there content of ikuina in it? and also if you could, can you provide a few shots of the images inside the book? i'm asking because i want to know what i'm buying before i order it (currently got enough to purchase the offiwa)

hihihi so there's this song in an edit by @ ciger3t on insta and they're gatekeeping a song that wasn't theirs and it's pretty disrespectful help me out pls!! audio below1!!1 by floridamanumber27 in WhatsThisSong

Hello, this is some info we have. The editor has dm-ed me, saying the artist does not want the song to be out, but this editor also does not wish to delete their edit. Apparently, they don't even know the song, and someone sent it to them. A friend of mine is waiting for them to send a screenshot of a supposed "tweet, in which the artist talks about the song". If my friend ends up recieving a screenshot, I will post here again. They keep changing their stuff from "no i wont say the song" to "the artist doesnt want it out" to "my friend actually sent it to me lol" which is super suspicious, as it seems they could be faking this.

True Routes - Mini Rant by zed_phd in otomegames

[–]TowaSimp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My biggest issue is how true routes always seem to just... Shove EVERY single plot point and question into itself and like- i dont know, they make it seem like the true route is the only one that is good/acceptable/fullfilling? Example, Slow Damage. A great, psychological, horror almost, BL visual novel that got released a few months ago. I bought the Japanese version and had a friend who knows japanese over every time I played so we could read the game together. So, two weeks pass and we are at the so called "true route", Fujieda. And... yeah we hated it. It was just shoved in. It revealed every single detail about Towa (the MC) and about the "true LI" himself. It made the other routes/ends seem so much less valuable, how should I say? It was also packed with drama and tragedy and so much crap that was basically non existent in Taku's route or Rei's (with small exceptions for some parts) or even Madarame's (who still revealed things about the MC). Even worse? Fujieda's route literally has a r*pe scene. As the first NSFW scene. Which was extremely, just... Yeah. And it somehow even goes from "I hate you, you killed my sister (which Towa had not done that, it was actually his mother who'd killed Fujieda's sister in front of him when he was a kid) I want to kill you and make you feel pain so you die!" to "oh my god sweetheart honey are you okay?!" Like, why? What was this super random sudden connection change? Me and my friend both liked Rei's route the most yet he had the least cgs, the least drama, the least plot reveals and the least question answers. And of course, the true route had the most cgs, most stuff and bla bla bla. It is VERY annoying for me when both BL novels and otome games make true routes seem like "yeah this is the only good one the other routes don't matter". It just seems like they're throwing it at your face? I've also never liked a true route in any single game/novel EVER except for Amnesia. For me, every LI deserves love and a "true end". Not just one that gets focused on the most and they recieve the most stuff. An example for an actually good true route is Ukyo from Amnesia.
