THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!! I'm so very proud of this game and all the love and breathtaking fanart I've been seeing! *cries*
I'm super surprised that so many people DID like Ashino, I purposefully made him the anti Ashton, but he still has his charms.
I know going through all that dialogue every update is a pain, there are a few skips that become active after a first date but it's still a lot. I'm hesitant to make a BIG skip option but maybe I will. That's one of the downsides to using RPG Maker over Renpy (which I'm learning). If it helps you can hold down SPACE or LEFT click or ESC to go through dialogue quickly.
I'm getting close to finishing this game and I couldn't be more excited and a little sad, thank you so much for playing my little game!
