Craft Egg really likes playing the long game huh . . . I mean Bandori is an ongoing VN with a heckton of content so I shouldn’t be surprised that they keep surprising me. It’s just that after almost three years you’d think your opinions were set and you knew what to expect from the stories but no!!

The YukiLisa and MocaRan friendships were kinda eh to me in the beginning and I thought I’d always feel that way about them . . . but Craft Egg said hold our boost drinks, Sasanqua event and NY event coming right up (it was Yukina casually stepping in as a shrine maiden in Lisa’s place that made me go “Huh they really are childhood friends, there’s all this subtlety and things left unsaid in their relationship bc some things don’t need to be said” and prompted me to sit down and think about them for several hours no joke). There were girls who I thought could grow on me but who I didn’t expect to love, and then I did. After Double Rainbow I thought I’d never want to T100 again, only for the RinAri event to suck me back in. After that I said ok that’s it now there’s absolutely no reason to torture yourself again!! . . . but . . . the NY event . . . seems very tempting rn. Heck I didn’t think I could love a ship more than RinAri but . . . well. Did I mention the NY event exists. Craft Egg you’re repeatedly sending me to the afterlife and bringing me back I can’t take this. It’s been almost three years and I’m still so fixated on this game that I get embarrassed when I see people moving on while I’m still stuck in this hole

Anyway what I actually wanted to say was that I think a lot of people gave up hope of ever seeing Kokoro be forced to deal with negative emotions, and what does Craft Egg do but decide “Oh now’s a good time to hit them with it!” Craft Egg I’m begging you to have mercy. Next you’re gonna tell me BS4 is the sanbaka discovering Michelle’s identity and I will perish
