did you see that it's getting a new anime? (or is that the reason you watched the og anime)

(character backstory spoiler)

after the first end they offer you last branch or pick any branch. last branch was unusual so i thought there was a point and went with that (wrong choice) ended up halfway through the true end with info from earlier branches that i hadn't uncovered and only then went back to the earlier ones @.@

the game isn't very much on the radar of people which is why looking up recommendations for route progression pretty much yielded nothing. it shouldn't matter in an ushikoshi game since you get all information anyway but i definitely recommend going in an order that is not the way i went lol

REAL NOT CLICKBAIT WOHOOO!!!!

very interesting how the amount of details increased before you went back to a style that was more about simplifying details 🤔
