I just finished Jian's route (Accepting the Video Invite) and heck, I'm almost sobbing.
I'll admit that the only reason I downloaded this game was cause some of my online friends are Filipino and I was interested in a cute slice of life VN after going deep into fantasy. But immediately, that scene in the elevator got to me-- As someone who's ethnically Chinese and struggles with her mental health, I related to Jian so much. That elevator scene was one of my nightmares, just under being beaten up by racists and bigots (even though it's highly unlikely). So of course, I had to defend him, because that's what I would want someone to respond if I were in his position. Jian and Mara's relationship is so cute and exactly what I want in life.
Time to explore all of Jian's endings and do Gray's too <3
Edit: I am in pain trying to do Gray's route because I'm too much like Jian and hate social situations lol
