really nice work! the art in this is so eclectic and fun and the music is equally so (the track that plays on the title screen reminds me of penis music lol) i liked the ui too never seen before a vn that put the pov character sprite in a hand mirror like that (though it does cover some of the text) and the rafflesia petals!! (wall)flower nina is such a mess of a protagonist to inhabit the headspace of such a sprawling inner monologue that offers cute little glimpses of insanity belied by a mundane laconic exterior. in some ways shoko almost feels like a counterpart to nina with her crafted persona of unserious childishness that with nina slowly falls away into surprising thoughtfulness. truly gap moe is the strongest force in the universe i totally get why nina went insane for her and i mean she is a very deeply sympathetic character i can relate to being in friend groups where it feels like everyone cares about you a lot less than they might say they do and the fact that shoko actually does in a way that isnt just head pats or pushy nagging does really feel special. im a little curious about how the ending fallout itself went but this was great especially for a debut vn thanks for sharing it
