I played MBIML first (Ep3 Part 1) and then Sicae. I don't know if Niichan reads this but I first want to say, I genuinely wished him to feel better! Health is what matters the most!
Next, here are my short thoughts for Sicae so far (Episode 5), MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS:
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. SPOILERS!!!!!!!
For the first two episodes, the storytelling were bit mediocre. However, once Episode 3 kicked in, I started to fully appreciate the story, and the cliffhanger at the end of Episode 5 was gave me chills through my spin. Fantastic story writing! In addition, I enjoyed the fluid animations for the fightscenes between other characters and the MC, and the appropriate choice for the background music for each arc is the cherry on top.
In terms of character development, I love Lisa's story and personality the most by far due to their "evenly-matched relationship" and her personality really echo with me, althought I feel like the MC was a bit irresponsible during the last part of Lisa's H-scene. In juxataposition, other characters, such as Nicole, Yuna, and so on, their personalities and stories were well portrayed! The only little issue I had was Zoey's story set-up. Her relationship with the MC was seemingly far-fetched (just in my humble opinion, that was a bit weird for me), compared to the rest of the girls. But overall, most of the characters are fanstastic! There are also some call-backs to MBIML (like the conversation between Jess and her sister)! I love them!
I also have a couple of questions raised by the cliffhanger as well as the main story:
1) The person that intrigued the most is Claire/Owl. We learned that she befriended Moon/Fang and worked with her under Jess in MBIML, and I am curious to find out about what changed her from an "delirious" assassin to the Claire we know in MBIML. What made her "delirious"? It seems she has a much more terrible background story than Moon does in MBIML.
2) What was the "big mess" the MC's father left?
3) Learning what happened to Yuna, what's the MC's next step? I'm looking forward to their confrontations
I just rplayed this, then mbiml, and i get the feeling that the latter is a couple of years in the future of the former. I could be wrong, but they mention 2 years a few times with the sicae crew. So I think we still have a bit of time to find out what happens to Claire
If anyone knows the name of the piano song that plays when Zoey does her backstory with Irene, I'd appreciate some info (song name/artist name). As a pianist, I'd really like to learn this song. It is an absolute god tier piano song.
I must say that after playing the most recent MBML update and getting just a few chapters into this again I am EXTREMELY curious about the end result. If I wasn't a broke boy I would pour money into your patreon. Very grateful to be able to play for free for now.
How do you get the Irene scenes? I've been stuck on this for a while now and cant seem to figure it you. I got the one at the beginning of the game but don't know how to get the others.
I wish Niichan can allocate more time to this AVN, after all, it is the predecessor of MBML, and if I don't play it, I often feel confused when playing MBML. Additionally, I personally prefer Sicae's story.
Lastly, I can't wait to experience the plot of dating Eliza!
While I don't fully disagree, I do think this story was kind of getting to it's end real soon (which is ashamed), but based on the current storyline in MBML, I would rather have the sequel so we could at least have the comfort of knowing where their story went.
Think of a time-skip in anime, or the "years later.." title card of a movie: if that's how the plot moves on, then I don't mind. I'm just glad to see some of these characters again in a different story.
Honestly we can all agree that Niichan should focus on sicae(LCC) my bully is my lover is a great game but this one is not only the prequel but the mc is way better plus more badass,i also dislike how the mc of MBISML looks like a baby and his hair is just weird,plus he is really annoying, still an amazing game.Just wished that the dev could focus on this one since he started it first,i would like to know everything leading up to MBISML plus we barely have any h-scenes in this one while mbisml has way more.No hate tho since some people cant accept opinions on the internet.I want to at least finish the mc for this games arc he is way more interesting.Sucks that most people just prefer some love story.
main character knows damn well that yuna can read minds but gets surprised when he thinks while shes around. its kind of annoying you know? at least give the Main Character some brains and not get surprised by the most obvious things. im developing a game of my own. i want to show you guys what a visual novel should be like. i also noticed how you are a fan of female dominance...i wont judge you but damn it feels weird in most situations.
Woah, kind of harsh dontcha think? Everyone is free to have their own opinions on the game, but you should consider the game's highlights if you want to make one yourself.
Not exactly "Harsh". Problem here is that I am a dominant male. Being dominated makes me feel weird most of the time. there are times where I can submit but seriously...Watching my ass get whooped by a female is NOT hot for me sorry😭And the main character here doesnt have brains. have you played desert stalker?
not to be rude but you are kinda dumb for not realising that i care about the developer of this game. clearly i want him to be better by making him listen to his critiques in order to get a bigger fan base. its not about not playing the game. its about supporting people who have a dream of becoming game developers. for example:
some people like gay sex scenes in games.
most people dont.
if the developer wanted to get a bigger fan base, he would obviously make both scenes but he would make the gay scenes avoidable in order to keep his fans happy...its not rocket science.
same goes for dialogue. choices are important. dialogue choices. making a player choose whether he wants to be dominated by a girl or not. those are important if you want a bigger fanbase. ITS A SIMPLE FUCKING CONCEPT! learn to accept critiques and BE BETTER!
"grrr someone unaffiliated with the dev critiqued my critique so i'm gonna sit and rage at the dev that hasn't even responded because i'm better than all of you"
So you are complaining because a game that wasn't even made for people like you doesn't align with your kinks? Bro, Kindly shut the fuck up and play something else.
Damn...😂😂If that's what you like then it's fine. But I'm a dominant man, not a submissive man. and there are more dominant men than submissive men so the developer has to give options. which is what i'm doing with my game. it's a lot of work but it's fair at least.
A more fair response can only be given by the developer. I will say that I hope they continue, although I can understand taking a break from one to complete the other.
Believe me, I've been there... He may well be only awake due to caffeine. 😐 Depression is a double negative, and not in a good way. It causes you feel drained, you don't want to do anything, you have no friends... All looping in on itself because you never go out except when necessary.
I was shook when I played through Eternum after the latest update and saw Moon. I know it's not uncommon for popular devs to include characters from other games.
No, they share certain characters and if you know certain parts of Sicae it is easier to get certain seemingly plotholes of MBML, but generally you don't need to read one to get another
It's basically Mary Sue: The Visual Novel. The animations are amazing, the grammar is good, the scene framing is great. But the characters are just so unlikable. Yet somehow also not hate-able? I'm glad people like it, I'm certainly not against it. But not really for me
So I got to part with hera and jess and I confused out fking mind I mean awesome but damnit can explain how the two worlds fit together cuz damnit I am so lost
I started playing this game and I thought something was wrong. Why is this story very familiar to me? And only later I realized that this is a reworking of the game Life Changing Choices. How suddenly.

Never comment on these, but just started my first playthrough and bro....a red Lotus Elise if I'm correct? A man of quality for sure.

sicae is the prequel of mbiml, approximately 2 years before events described in mbiml
Why does android ver take so much less space
帅哥，没有中文语言吗
Hey guys, i have 3 locked scenes with eliza, is there someway to unlock them or its just like that?
By the way, do not forget Sicae NiiChan we havent seen any info about it
he said he'll make a sicae update every 3-5 MBML updates (because of a poll)
as a fan of sicae, we wait, MBML fans are dominating those polls
as a fan of both (more a fan of insane Mc's) ill wait like hell
yo, can anyone tell ll me the timelime of the story?? i wanna play but have no idea where to start and where to continue... QwQ
Sicae is like two years bf MBML
So after MBML right?
Bf 2 years aprox
Just a thought, but every time Ken blinks in early gameplay at least so far, there's a visual distortion in the grass
oh its just lcc but renamed.
i was scared that nii chan started another vn without finishing his other projects again
what is the name of the game
Is Walkthrough Mod usable in Android version?
If anyone knows the name of the piano song that plays when Zoey does her backstory with Irene, I'd appreciate some info (song name/artist name). As a pianist, I'd really like to learn this song. It is an absolute god tier piano song.

Thanks!
does anyone have the soundtrack to this game? pretty dope tune
Every MP3s are in the game/audio directory.
How to play dude I downloaded on my phone android n then I extract it it only show some file like ep2.rpy what that
Did you download the apk file?

Is Sicae finished?
Nope
Aw, I wish this was updated more often, but I suppose the only option is to wait until MBIML is complete for this to get priority again.
is that Owl in my bully is my lover?
yes.. 100% bro..
i cant wait for the next update, also the sex scene with nicole, that song is AMAZING.
И еше вопрос можно узнать новую версию долго еше ждать очень надеемся что ждать придется недолго
Привет очень отличная хорошая игра можно узнать эта игра будет гаремом или как?
Dying for some more Sicae.
I feel you bro
Honestly we can all agree that Niichan should focus on sicae(LCC) my bully is my lover is a great game but this one is not only the prequel but the mc is way better plus more badass,i also dislike how the mc of MBISML looks like a baby and his hair is just weird,plus he is really annoying, still an amazing game.Just wished that the dev could focus on this one since he started it first,i would like to know everything leading up to MBISML plus we barely have any h-scenes in this one while mbisml has way more.No hate tho since some people cant accept opinions on the internet.I want to at least finish the mc for this games arc he is way more interesting.Sucks that most people just prefer some love story.

So you are complaining because a game that wasn't even made for people like you doesn't align with your kinks? Bro, Kindly shut the fuck up and play something else.
you need to seek some help.
lmaooo
im kinda into the female dominance thing its hot asf
Damn...😂😂If that's what you like then it's fine. But I'm a dominant man, not a submissive man. and there are more dominant men than submissive men so the developer has to give options. which is what i'm doing with my game. it's a lot of work but it's fair at least.
then go play something else
they developer does not have to give a fuckin thing. For a dominant man you sure bitch a lot.
How do I download previous episodes?
you don't have to the update is just called ep5
so every episode is there ?
i haven't gotten around to playing it yet but Yes most likely
Alright Thanks
beautiful story same as MBIML, i love it..
I'm here because I saw that Caribdis had rated the game. I've no clue if he gave it a good rating or a bad one, but I'm going with good.
Same here, not sure if it was a bad or good review but i wanna find out by myself if it’s actually good.
It was a five star review
Sweet! Thanks Demonicangel!
I believe the developers are friends
Is the game complete or still ongoing
Whoever down voted this comment, woe be to you.
A more fair response can only be given by the developer. I will say that I hope they continue, although I can understand taking a break from one to complete the other.
The game is still geting worked on but Niichan's focus is on MBIML ( there is going to be 3 updates on MBIML before a update on Sicae)
Another question: how does one keep their sanity when trying to run two stories at the same time?
Just a quick question, how do you pronounce the name of the game? 🙂
Edit: No, seriously. I want to be able to say the game's name properly so as not to disrespect it's existence.
Considering that (I'm assuming) it's based from Latin, I believe it'd be pronounced either like "see-kay" or "see-kye".
the mc looks like he lives solely on coffee.
Believe me, I've been there... He may well be only awake due to caffeine. 😐 Depression is a double negative, and not in a good way. It causes you feel drained, you don't want to do anything, you have no friends... All looping in on itself because you never go out except when necessary.
I am very curious, does LCC, MBML and Eternum all share a universe as canon?
I was shook when I played through Eternum after the latest update and saw Moon. I know it's not uncommon for popular devs to include characters from other games.
LCC and MBML yes. Eternum is just a cameo.
LCC anr MBML? What are their full names?
Life-Changing Choices (original name of Sicae, now appendage), and My Bully is My Lover (stealth sequel spin-off of Sicae. Kinda)
Oh, is it a must to read the MBML before Sicae? I dropped MBML and then went for Sicae.
No, they share certain characters and if you know certain parts of Sicae it is easier to get certain seemingly plotholes of MBML, but generally you don't need to read one to get another
okay, thanks for the help!
i think, theres mension of stabby the president
What is the answers for the riddles, it's getting on my nerves. I can't access the walkthrough either.
Footsteps , age , and school
thanks bud
Oh wow..... I restarted reading this again but deym I didn't expect this Sht to be Fcking Deep.
I really appreciate that you put most effort into the backstory of each Character.
I've been a Fan since Pre vamped, Now you have a Solid Background, and plot.
( I mean I came here for the Story, and you give that and more, well mostly for the Story 😉)
Thank you and Good job for the Update.
(It gives me John Wick vibes)
It's basically Mary Sue: The Visual Novel. The animations are amazing, the grammar is good, the scene framing is great. But the characters are just so unlikable. Yet somehow also not hate-able? I'm glad people like it, I'm certainly not against it. But not really for me
Still my #1 favorite title
Damn did you guys changed LCC ?? well as long as the story continues I guess...
So I got to part with hera and jess and I confused out fking mind I mean awesome but damnit can explain how the two worlds fit together cuz damnit I am so lost
LCC takes place before MBML
okay that makes some sense
I started playing this game and I thought something was wrong. Why is this story very familiar to me? And only later I realized that this is a reworking of the game Life Changing Choices. How suddenly.
