44. toki no kizuna: hanayui tsuzuri

SO much content that honestly i was getting fatigued by the stuff that didn't fall into the romance epilogues, but that means it'll be a reason to come back when i miss everyone. great for a FD though and i just... adore these characters so much!

43. bon appétit, your majesty

the overarching plot was kind of a hot mess, especially in the last two eps. the last 20 minutes needed to be its own episode!

but i was still very endeared by the concept, the focus on the food through most of it, and the characters themselves. i had fun, so 🤷‍♀️

simultaneously losing my mind, falling to my knees at how precious is kazuya is when he laughs so fondly while also never being able to shake in my mind knowing the fate of his village and descendants and what they go through 🎭

he won me over SO hard this playthrough tbh

the funny thing about your retired mom living with you in your house is that she is so immune to my shit that she saw the attached image and immediately just assumed

- it was gay
- there would be dicks out momentarily

i was like SHE IS FULLY CLOTHED??? THIS GAME IS RATED LIKE T

42. toki no kizuna: sekigahara kitan

first time playing in 13 years, and i love it even more than i remembered (probably because i can fully... understand it this time... shh, it's fine). will expand on thoughts in a full thread, but this is an all-time favorite otome for me

onward to the FD!

i fully understand why people draw him as genshin characters, but if were doing the drawing, this is what he'd get because it's perfect, tbqh

it's filed in my brain under "things that just aesthetically make sense"

I generally say looking at a comment section is the worst thing you can do. but I look at them anyway and sometimes it is worth it for a good laugh

most versions of mitsunari are punchable, but this one is exceptionally punchable. this look of absolute DISDAIN sends me every time

sometimes you have to work your second job after you finish your day job and that is when the beeg caffeine is needed

(also because it was on the way home since I finished what I went to the office for)
