I love your games and played them all using a translator. . . . . Keep up the good work !! Aoisuki kind of reminds me of Hoshino since theyre both childhood friends of the mcs and is a yandere(?).. I love them both !!! I hope to play more of your games ⸜(｡˃ u˂ )⸝♡
Also to add more to my comment, Aoisaki is honestly such a relatable character ;_; "I often lied to my parents just to please them" and "If I told the truth it wouldve been only 'i dont know'" are some problems that people usually dont acknowledge. If you lie or tell the truth, either way you just get punished so this is why alot of people dont have the courage to face the truth. Just like the mc, whenever they start facing reality, they get punished with pain by feeling how they dont really have to live for unless theres someone there for them to depend on. I find the mc and Aoisaki's dynamic very interesting!! Aoisaki is now one of my favorite charactesr and overall, this game is truly magnificent!!
As well for Higan, he's also such a great character. I like how easy going he is towards with new-ish people and his never-go-down personality! i get why Aoisaki admired him :DDD I like how he's motivated to never give up and keep going after everything hes been through. Its very refreshing to see a character that encourages people to keep going in life. Even if everything seemed impossible to someone, hes the type of character to help these people (atleast in my point of view) I want to say more things about him but my vocabulary is decreasing so uhhhh hh hhh h I really love your characters and your unique style of writing! it captures the complexity of a time in life where people really have to decide for themselves and how these decisions will impact their life later on.
Oh! Thank you so much for your long comment. Knowing that you played through all of my games using a translator… that gesture means more to me than words can express. I created these stories purely out of my own passion, so learning that players from different linguistic backgrounds are willing to take the time to read them—that joy is truly something special.
I'm really glad that Aoisaki resonated with you on such a deep level. Since I often interact with people from all walks of life and all kinds of backgrounds, I've observed that many have gone through similar experiences—carrying unspoken frustrations that rarely get voiced. What a pleasant surprise. I'm truly happy that you brought this up.
In the two stories, I intentionally built a symmetrical structure. The biggest common trait between Hoshino and Aoisaki… well, they seem harmless on the surface, but they are incredibly ruthless toward the ones they love, and even more ruthless toward themselves. I find that quality of "ruthlessness" very interesting.
As for Higan's conviction, I can summarize it with an ancient Chinese saying: "明知不可为而为之" — he truly is a character who shines a light even in the darkest moments. You said you were running out of words? No, not at all. Your description of him was spot on. Thank you for seeing him that way.
With your encouragement, I will keep doing what I love, and keep writing the stories I want to tell. Honestly, this deeply moves me.
