I read your review from A to Z and it makes me so happy that you loved the game that much ! Thank you so so much for all the kind words, it really do means a lot for me and motivates me even more for the remake! Hopefully you'll like it too ♡

Thank you for the kind words, it means a lot for me ♡
And I'm happy you loved the game this much and looking forward for Fuji:RE, I hope you'll enjoy it as well !✦

A good amount of people found Haru's route transphobic and I'm sincerely sorry for that. From what I understood from all the comments (mostly on steam) about how Haru's route was twisted, this is greatly due to the fact that my english was really poor at the time and that I failed to convey the message I had in mind, resulting to people thinking I voluntarily depicted Haru in a ill manner, which was
obviously not my intention.

Right now I'm working on a remake where hopefully it will be more clear for everyone that Haru is a cis boy simply crossdressing as a response/self-protection because of his view of the world around him and isn't actually a trans person. I do feel really bad for the people who felt hurt or betrayed because of their expectations and my poor writing at the time, so I'll try my best to make it extra clear from the get go✦♡

I hope it clears a bit the confusion ~

Aww thank you for the kind words, it makes me so happy !♡
Hopefully I'll be able to work on a longer version someday✦

Hello ~
Unfortunately, I am not planning on making Fuji:RE more gender neutral as Aya is one of my OCs with a set gender (as well as the other characters), personality, name, etc THOUGH feel free to mod the og game as you want, as long as it's purely for personal use and not promoting your version as the original. The game's files of the current game aren't locked so you can change whatever you want (still for personal use) and I'm planning to not lock the remake either so you'll be able to mod it too when it releases✿

P.S : You might already know this game, but have you tried the Our Life series from GBPatch ? This is an amazing and wholesome visual novel with a good amount of customization, so it might actually fit your taste and preferences better✦

I just finished watching it, thank you for playing one of my games again !♡
It made me chuckle, your reactions are always so funny x)
As for the game itself, I teamed up with someone else because it was a game jam. They worked as the programmer and I'm so glad they accepted to participate with me (I took care of the writing and art), else I wouldn't be able to code all of that myself !
Thank you again for this let's play, it really made my day ✿

Hello, sorry for the late answer !
Yes, the idea of Fujiwara Bittersweet is still a thing ~
It's on pause right now though, as I'm working on other projects (Fujiwara:REmake is one of those, I update sometimes on my twitter account and my discord server), but hopefully I'll be able to work on it sooner than later after I'm done !
Thank you again for loving the game this much, it really means a lot for me ♡
P.S : There is little crumbs of Fujiwara in my other game called "Hello Friend", if ever you are curious✦

Hehe glad you noticed the Fujiwara and Blooming Panic references ~
And thank you so much for loving the game(s), it makes me so happy ! (> w <)/
Also don't worry about the caps, it actually makes me smile to see how enthusiastic you are♡✦

Hello, sorry for the late answer !
The release will unfortunately be delayed from our original date (the english version at least, as I'll have to work on the french version after) and the writer estimated that her work on the project would be done sometime in 2024. Then we'll have to make the proofread, fix bugs, playtest, etc, and hopefully the final release will be there before 2025 ~
Sorry again for the lack of news on itchio, though I do actually update from time to time on Twitter and Tumblr. Here are the links if you don't want to miss anything about the project :
- Twitter : https://twitter.com/mbvn_ 
- Tumblr : https://www.tumblr.com/magicbench

Thank you for your support and your patience ! And don't hesitate to ask if ever you have more questions and concerns, I will gladly answer them✿

I'm sorry, I would prefer a let's play with your commentary and opinions as I like to have feedback and reactions from the streamers/players, so if it's just the walkthrough without your voice over I'll have to decline ^^"
But still, thank you for the offer !

By uploading, do you mean a let's play where you talk over, makes comments and saying your thoughts about the routes ?

Thank you, I'm happy you enjoyed it ! ♡

Thank you so much for considering supporting us !💖
For this project however, we won't take additional money (I assume you meant supporting us financially, but maybe I'm wrong) as the game was already funded via Kickstarter and that it will be released for free once done ~
Though, don't hesitate to stop by the team members social accounts/websites. Thank you again for your interest and hope you'll like the final product !✨

Hello ~
Yes there is, but you'll find it on the Steam page (^ w^)/
Here is the link : https://steamcommunity.com/app/1509590/guides/

Thank you for the kind words ! I had a lot of fun writing and drawing for this project and the programmer did an amazing work putting it together, so I'm happy you liked the game this much💖✨

Hope you'll enjoy it💖✨

Yes they are ~
At some point, you see a pic of each of them✨

Thank you for the kind words, I'm happy you liked the game ! 💖
Unfortunately I'm not planning on expanding the game for now since I have other projects I want to make in priority, but who knows *maybe* someday (no promises though, it's a BIG maybe to take with a grain of salt)✨

Glad you liked the sad tone of the demo, hopefully you'll like the rest of the game when it releases, if ever you have the occasion to play it🌼
The team is doing an amazing work on it !✦

Thank you for the kind words ! The fact that you like all the characters and that you are looking forward to the remake really means a lot to me💖
Slowly but surely working on it✨

Thank you, it was really fun to draw ! ✨

Happy you liked the game this much !💖

Thank you for the kind words and for loving the characters (and NotA) !💖
I'm happy you caught the little reference too, and to answer your question...the character you mentioned is actually an easter egg from another of my projects (called "Fujiwara Bittersweet", I'm currently working on a remake though) and he is indeed kind of a little troll, even in the other game (> w<)/✨
Incidentally he is also the "non-official" mascot of the studio, and the actual studio's mascot/logo is a black cat in reference to this character, haha x)
Thank you again for your comment and I hope I answered your question ~

Thank you, happy you liked it ! (é w è)/💖

Thank you for the kind words !💖
Slowly but surely working on other projects on the side, so I hope you'll like them as well if ever you have the occasion to try them when released (^ w^)/✨

Thank you for your kind words !💖✨

Yes, I'm sorry for the confusion...I promise I'll do my best to clear any misunderstanding in the remake ;-;
But I'm happy you still liked the game and Haru's route nonetheless, thank you !💖

I'm happy you liked the game that much, thank you !
Haha yes, I had some people saying that they thought Ikki would be their fav then changed their mind after playing the other routes ~
And also yes, more love/more content for baby Toshi in the remake !💖
I also can't wait to work on the characters childhood arcs, as I'll be able to show more of them and their parents a few years prior ✨

Thank you so much, I'm happy you loved both the game and my art style !💖

I'm happy to hear you loved the game this much, it means a lot for me ! Thank you💖
Also I'm currently (super slowly but surely) working on the remake ~
I still don't have any release date, but you might like it as well as I'll add more content like adding a bit more details to the routes + unlockable childhood arcs stories (^ w^)/✦

I'm happy you are enjoying the story so far and that you feel like replaying later ~
As for the remake, yup ! Progressing suuuuuper slowly, but surely (I post sneak peeks of it on my twitter from time to time) and I can't wait to be able to 100% invest my time on it ✦
Thank you again for the kind words and encouragement, it means a lot for me💖

Thank you, I'm happy you loved it ! 💖
And yes ! I'm planning of doing a second game, with Ikki's little sister as the MC (she'll be in her mid-20's) ~
The project isn't really in development yet as I'm planning of making a remake of the current game, so it might take a rather long time before its release x)

Haha I totally get what you mean xD
"Unfortunately", the main cast and MC from Fujiwara 2 won't be the same so there will not be any jealousy scenes between Aya and the male leads (> w <)
Hopefully you'll like it nonetheless💖

Thank you for the kind words ! And I'm so happy to hear you count it as one of your comfort games too 💖

Happy it did 💖

Thank you for playing and loving the game !💖
Yes...after a lot of feedback about Haru, I decided that I would make things more clear and said earlier in the game (also in Haru's profile) for the remake to avoid any misunderstanding. Hopefully I'll be able to make something more enjoyable this time for this route. I'll try my best at least✨
Thank you again for loving Haru nontheless, it means a lot for me !🌼✦

Thank you for loving the game this much ! I'm happy you ended up liking Toshio and relate to Yuta somehow ~
Thank you again for the kind words, it means a lot to me and motivates me to work on the remake 💖

Thank you, happy you loved both the art and story !💖✨

Thank you for the kind words ! I'm glad you loved Yuta and Haru's routes and hope you will enjoy the new content/remake as much as you liked the current version of the game once it releases 💖✦

I hope you'll like it then ~
Though it might take some time to be released, so please bear with me being slow until the remake is out (> w <)/
