She is not poor but sleeping on street after failing at what she came to do here.
She?
I thought she was Reiko, because her posture, hair tie, and clothes resemble her. By the way, was the main character in the old Magic Ring Hiroshi? I was quite surprised that his name was Harry, as far as I know Harry is Hiroshi, if only you made Magic Ring too, but I'm happy because at least the LSHR story is combined with the Magic Ring story
then I saw the development of your drawings also getting better and neater, I tried drawing with pixel mode but the results were very strange hahahah..

That's her. Her hair color was changed to make her granddaughter of first abducted girl you save in level 8 of HTA. But now she is just her teacher.
Masuo's name was Harry/Haruto(I don't remember if Hiroshi was his name or his friend's) and that was his original design. Later his hair color was made dark blue and name changed to Dan/Daisuke. Later during the development of LSH his design was changed to make him muscular and black hair. His name was also changed to Mac/Masuo during that period and not it has stuck.
Reiko was suppose to be just a girl he meets and have sex with but I love her design so much I made her his girlfriend retconning her and her sister's fight with Ken.
I like some aspect of my old artwork. Because at some places I felt like "Oh... that's looking nice!"
I think the story of Magic Ring was too good to just let go so I decided to make game based on interesting part of that story.
Some characters that still exist from old story and new ones.
- Chihiro - Her name was Cherry I think. She used to be in same school as Masuo before going to live with her grandmother Hailey. In old plot she puts a curse on Masuo which made him unlucky with love. She was second love interest that Masuo could marry in the end.
- Tatsuka- She was gonna be girl that constantly get stuck in small hole in a wall while getting to college. Now she is bestfriend's with Masuo.
- Tsukiko- She was gonna be a girl you make into an idol but now she is Taichi's temporary girlfriend and Masuo's assistant.
- Fumiko- She was his first girlfriend in old game and sister of his friend Hiroshi. In LSH Taichi Yoshimi was gonna take her over her character but I decided to keep her.
- Mei- Mei was Junmi's sister in old story. There was no sex animation but Hiroshi would have asked for your help to sleep with her as Masuo sleeps with his sister. I think I was gonna make her name Tsunade but decided to stick with the original.
- Junsa - She was dead in old script and only served for a plot point.
- Momoko - She was gonna be just a delivery girl you can have sex with for misplacing your package.
- Aoi-Her name was Akane in old story and she was gonna be a girl that used to bully Masuo during his school years. She finds another way to bully him but Masuo is into such bullying you know. Her design was changed to look like Ayane from Overflow. She was secret third lover interest to marry Masuo in the end.
- Ayako - She was going to be principle of the college.
- Kana - She was going to be an old lady that sometimes offered free food for Masuo and had wholesome motherly relationship with him.
- Rose- In old story Masuo kidnaps Rose on Asuka's (I don't remember if it was Masumi Hirakawa or her) order but after doing the job he helps Rose's sister on her mission to rescue Rose.
- Hinata - She was gonna be a horny neighbour that flirts with Masuo when he moves out of Mei's house.
- Masumi Karasuyama (Short) - She was initially written as Ryoko's helper from other universe.
- Kagome- Her name was Nanako in old story. There was no animation with her but sleeping with her was gonna be Masuo's dream.
- Tomo- Tomo was gonna be like her Karasuyama house self. Masuo sleeps with her and her mother to get back at Kunio.
- Ryoko - Her name was Sakura in old story and she had ability to disguise herself as anyone from the start. Her design was like Riyuka but with one eye hidden. That old man you see in the video is her.
- Hiroshi - He wasn't Masuo's cousin and had red hair like his then mother Juko.
- Miyoko- Sumire's design was hers in the past and she would pay player for delivering her stuff around the town.
- Kunio - Funnily Kunio's old design was similar to Masuo's current design except his hairs were messy.
- Junmi- She was alive in original story. Only Daisuke died.
- Sugar- Was a sex worker Masuo meet at midnight in an alley. Her design was quite different and had blonde hairs.
- Succubus ghost in old LSH was gonna be girl you meet and have sex in Karaoke booth about which I completely forgot about. I think I'm not gonna add her in LSH Ringman.
The first word that came out of my mouth were “CRAZY!!.” You made the story feel so incredibly alive. Despite the game being erotic-based, I genuinely love the mystery and puzzles within it. You know what? When I first played LSHT, I left it untouched for about 4 months because I didn’t know how to play it. But once I figured it out, I got addicted and finished everything within 7 days. (What an idiot, I almost went crazy back then because I couldn’t find any hints anywhere until I discovered your Itch page!)
I first saw your game on TikTok — people were streaming CB and HTA, and I got curious. I tried searching for it on illegal sites at that time because I didn’t know who the developer was. When I finally tried it, I became deeply interested in the storyline. When I asked you about the characters, I remember thinking, “Wait, why do these characters feel familiar? Are they all connected?” And when I asked you, it turned out they actually were.
Little by little, I started reading the storylines more carefully and slowly began to understand them, even if just a bit. Hahahah...
Speaking of the characters in your game, you’ve thought through every detail of them so perfectly: their personalities, their stories, and even their lineage. Even the data I have (from the CB character names) doesn’t cover everything, hahaha…
At first, I didn’t like the character Masuo. I thought he was weird for sleeping with so many women at once, hahaha. But after LSHR was released, and after I read all the dialogues and messages on the phone, I realized, it wasn’t entirely his fault. Now I’m obsessed with him because of the backstory I read on the wiki. I also really like Hiroshi — the first time I saw him, I immediately made him my profile picture on social media ><
Such incredible progress, I’m truly amazed by you. Keep up your amazing work, LAGS.
I wanted to make people curious about Masuo's character in all games until reveal of Magic Ring official build. The hate I received for this method really ruined a part of story as I have to change it quite a bit.
Initially Masuo's character wasn't like that. I think when I decided to match him with Reiko his character was made like this.
Hiroshi is kind of friend that would follow you to hell, no questions asked.
- Fumiko, she's a sweet girl, if I look at your old Magic Ring Video
- Sally currently the design for Ruby in HTA, will Sally be in the LSHR game later?
- Aoi-Akane in CB Old, no wonder she seems familiar, it turns out she's the good version of Aoi (current) hahahha..
- Rose, now it's the opposite, Rose is looking for her Sister.
- Regarding Junsa's real surname, before she married Takeru and her surname changed to Sakurai, was her surname Okada?
- Masumi Day Break, thats mean she was originally planned to be a female protagonist? wachh..
- Sugar's new version design looks similar to your other game character but I forgot who.
- Ahhh.. yeah.. before deciding to choose Len I was thinking of choosing Succubus LSH but I know making wings for 2D animation is very time consuming, so I decided against choosing her.
Yeah, I read your comment — and those hateful ones on the old LSH page on Itch.io. Back then, if I’m not mistaken, you had just released the beta version of LSH. Honestly, it was really sad to see that even though the story was already finished, you had to overhaul almost everything because of all the hate comments about it.
But I truly respect you for being able to endure all of that. Reaching this point must have been incredibly difficult, especially since you’re working alone now. When those hate comments come in, it really feels like your heart just sinks, doesn’t it?
Eheheheh... You really knew I’d want to ask a lot about Hiroshi, huh? 😂
- Fumiko was Aoi before Aoi.
- Yes. If you choose so.
- Akane in CB and Aoi are different characters. Akane still exists and you will see her looking for Ken while Ken is busy with someone.
- Yes.
- How did you got that information?
- Not a female protagonist but a significant one like Ryoko.
- Probably. But I don't think any one appears like that.
- Well Masuo is not suppose to have sex with any succubi unless they are cleansed of Lady Merusa's branding. Only exception is Lily but even with her there's no vaginal animation. Only oral, handjob and anal since she can control herself. For that Succubi girl it was gonna be a questline where if you don't help her she becomes one.
Well Hiroshi could join any girl that accepts multiple cocks (not counting the ones that let puppet in). Right now only ones he will get involved with her Sawako and Ms. Shima.
Ken is busy with Tomo, so funny.
As for Junsa, was my guess is correct? I just made a connection between her daughter in Street Hound and her in Street Hound, the Okada family seems very interesting if they are all reunited (just my wild idea).
Ahh yeah, Merusa, I forgot about her, she's like hell for Masuo because of that.
Yeyyy...
