[BestPick!] My best pick! [1]
While progressing through the early part, my favorite character changed 3 times in an instant!Yuri, the embodiment of sexy cuteness!This beautiful mass of contradictions, with her voluptuous femininity and the freshness of someone who has just become an adult! But her clear eyes, which still have a sense of innocence, made me feel uncomfortable.Then Sia appeared and stole my heart with her more seductive figure and passionate eyes.I'm worried that she might have a slightly strong personality, but I feel more comfortable with her than with Yuri?And finally, Yuna appeared!Maturity and fullness reach their peak, subtly exuding femininity.On the other hand, a glimpse of a youthful appearance.A hexagonal woman who even feels strong and responsible!Watching Yuna wiggle and open her mouth to speak in Live 2D, I wondered if I had ever looked forward to a conversation in a game this much.I'm looking forward to the official release and can't wait for my date with Yuna. ^ ^
[BestPick!] My best pick heroine is [Yuna]! [1]
I would pick Yuna as the best heroine.With the strength of 'being the person who has known the main character for the longest time', The good relationship with the main character that had already been built up, and noticing and worrying about the main character in a difficult situation first, were the most natural appeals that other heroines could not do.Yuna is working part-time together. Even if it's something you don't really think about (working on weekends), you can feel the bond that you are willing to do together if you are together.She also has the delicacy to worry about and notice the difficult situation first!More than anything, this big and beautiful...! Please look at Yuna! How can you stand this?! She even entrusted the zipper on her back?!Even um.....p.s//It hasn't come out in the story yet, but she also wore a beautiful bunny girl.A bunny girl made at Maid Study Cafe... I'm very much looking forward to the future development
[BestPick!] My favorite is! [2]
Heart pounding!From the moment Yuna first appeared in the game, I could only see Yuna.I also liked how she knew and understood the protagonist's situation best and actively tried to help.Every time the protagonist brought another woman to the bakery, I saw her being displeased and jealous, and I really thought there was only Yuna!
[BestPick!] My best pick is! [2]
Yuri, Sia, Yuna, and Sehee are all pretty and I like them,but the character I was most drawn to among them wasSehee.I personally prefer big things over small things, but here, she's the only small one, so there's a visual distinction,and in contrast to the other three who are subtly jealous and wary(?),Sehee basically seems friendly and proactive, but also her impish traits are well revealed,so I felt she was more attractive as a character.I also liked the SD characters that appeared in between because they were cute.Also, in the beginning, she was watching the main character or not remembering him, etc., so it seems like there's some kind of plot related to the main character,so I was curious about what happened in the past and what kind of relationship they had.
[BestPick!] I'm participating in the Best Pick event. [1]
I think Yuna is my favorite character.I noticed that the protagonist was worried inside even though she pretended to be okay on the outside, and I felt Yuna's warm heart and sincerity in the way she listened to difficult worries such as money problems without feeling burdened, and considered ways to solve them together or gave realistic advice.I think the line, "I hope I can't help you, but I don't want you to endure it alone," best shows Yuna's personality.When the protagonist casually said that he wanted to eat the bread Yuna made every day, her embarrassed and blushing appearance, or the jealous scenes when she was with other girls, revealed Yuna's honest and pure side, making her feel cute and lovely. Seeing pretty girls wearing maid outfits at a healthy study cafe, she said that she would watch over the protagonist so that he would not get caught up in unhealthy things, and the scene where she directly joined as a member felt like a Yuna-like action mixed with half worry and half jealousy, making her feel cute and attractive.She is a warm person who quietly gives strength by the protagonist's side when he is having a hard time, so I chose Yuna as my favorite character.
[BestPick!] Participating in my favorite event [1]
My best pick is Yuna.Even though it's a common friend setting in visual novels, I liked that it wasn't exactly a childhood friend setting She seems to be the most sensible and easiest to talk to among the heroines...Because the other heroines are so shameless and show unusual behavior patterns 😱It was fun to see her expression gradually sour every time I took the girls to the bakery, and it's cute that she eventually invaded my base I can already picture Yuna witnessing an unhealthy scene with other heroines, getting embarrassed and running out, then saying "Don't come near me, you pervert!!" to the protagonist.
[BestPick!] My pick is... [2]
The character I liked the most is Sehee.The reason is that her energetic, playful, and cute vibe was good to me. It was a brief encounter at our first meeting, but... Sehee's expression and atmosphere... Could it be... the main character...?! The scene where she asks if her heart fluttered when she bumped into the main character, and she seems interested in the main character. Why is there seafood in the mulled wine..?! ㅋㅋㅋService scene? Sehee stepping on the main character ㅗㅜㅑ~Sehee heard the conversation between the main character and Suyeon... She has a secret to share with the main character... I'm looking forward to Sehee and the main character's chemistry and story in the future. And personally, in the case of Yuri and Sia, the eyes in the character art feel a bit burdensome and don't fit the drawing, and in the case of Yuna, it's a bit better, but still something something.. So my pick is Sehee!I liked that I could see the CG neatly in the gallery!I liked the cute character art that comes out during loading!
[BestPick!] I'm participating in the event. [1]
It's Yuna.A pure face and long hair. I don't think there's any reason not to like her appearance, which also looks good in a simple jeans look.Also, it was even better because different charms were revealed when she wore different clothes.거기에 주인공을 챙기는 착한 마음씨까지.
[BestPick!] My favorite is right away [1]
Jung Sia, whose cold expression is attractiveActually, I like her older sister Jung Soo-yeon more I've completed my first birthday with Sia, who has a great personality and is prettyIn terms of the story, the main wife is Yuri or Yuna, but I can't lose Sia..
[BestPick!] Participating in the event! [1]
No matter how many times I look at it, Yuna seems to be the GOAT.Knowing that the protagonist is having financial difficulties, she pays for him instead, or she is worried about the protagonist constantly bringing strange women, so she visits Hypatia directly, etc.I liked that she clearly showed how much she cares for the protagonist.And when she first appeared without any exposure, and then suddenly appeared wearing a maid outfit, that violent appearance really stuck in my head.I'm looking forward to seeing if Yuna can beat the other heroines.It was fun!
[BestPick!] I like my old wife~ I like Sun Fuel~ [1]
Friends are old friends, childhood friends~National fuel~ Sun Fuel~ You were always right. Pierrot hyung. Being able to do baking and confectionery means that even in the worst situation, you won't starve to death, which is tier 1.The only downside is that when you're face to face Is it just that you sometimes have to raise your eyes?Safe return escort service is a paid product With a well-cooked beef Wellington, you can use it anytime. Dear customerI like the styleVery energetic+lol? What are you saying, wearing clothes like you're coming from a Lee Eun-gyeol fan club regular meeting???Immediate gun shooting++(Just change it to *story)The character's impression is something "...The next one is definitely my turn. Because I'm cute, I'll be sold for about 400 from that money-grubbing bastard."I thought she would have dead fish eyes from the next dayA woman with Georgian Balls that I've come to see again
[BestPick!] Impressions of clearing the demo and selection of best pick [1]
First of all, I liked the illustrations because the intention was clearly felt.From Live 2D to cutscenes, it was very good,I think they divided the roles of the heroine characters in a unique way.However, because there are so many characters to show, I felt like the main character became a cameraman at some point.I hope that the main character will be more actively involved by presenting more options in the main story.My best pick is Sia.The decisive difference from other characters that made me choose this character was the voice.Other characters also had voices that matched their respective characters,But this was the only character whose voice I found unique.I think it contributed to the completion of the character Sia because it has a slightly languid and strangely attractive voice.And based on the demo, there are also the most frequent costume changes,On top of that, they even gave her a sister setting, and even her older sister's restraint,I felt like she was a character who felt like she was being favored by the game.As much as I can feel the effort put into it, it seems natural that I am drawn to it.
[BestPick!] My best pick is... [1]
It's Jung Soo-yeon.Jung Soo-yeon showed a textbook villain appearance in the demo.Although it is not even certain whether she is a capturable heroine, that is why she is even more attractive.Even if she is not a heroine, if she is portrayed as a three-dimensional character rather than staying as a flat villain, the story will become much deeper.I think the villain is not simply an obstacle to the protagonist, but a driving force that moves the story forward.It creates an opportunity for the protagonist to grow or change, and the conflict unfolds through the conflict, leading to the climax of the story.The stronger and more convincing the villain, the more the protagonist's trials and overcoming shine.In order for the protagonist and heroines to stand out, they must have a shadow that tests them.That's why I'm more looking forward to the ripple effect or carnage that Jung Soo-yeon will create.
[BugReport] Awkward log window when full screen in 16:10 aspect ratio environment [1]
When changing to full screen with Alt+Tab or options in a 16:10 aspect ratio environment,In the log window, the character's dialogue and character SD go out of the frame.It seems that this is happening because the UI is optimized for the most popular 16:9 aspect ratio.
[BestPick!] My best pick! [1]
There are many strong candidates, but...My pick is...Yuna.She works at the same bakery and is the protagonist's friend.Surely she remembers the two iced teas she bought? I...Her jealous look is also cute.If you go around being called 'master' by a cute girl.Of course, it's strange.He brings a girl claiming to be an acquaintance from the study cafe for 3 days in a row...And two of them call him 'master'...Among the characters here, I liked her because she felt rational and realistic...Even this kind of unexpected charm?She joined the study cafe to monitor her rival right in front of her.And this is... seduction?I liked the background of getting close while working together for a long time, rather than other heroines who become close in just one day.Her feelings that have been building up little by little explode as she sees the girls he brings for 3 days in a row.And she approaches more actively (?) than anyone else.My pick is Yuna.
[BestPick!] My best pick is [1]
It's Yuri The reason I chose Yuri as the best pick is She seems to have the deepest feelings for the main characterAnd she feels like a character who draws a big picture as much as that deep emotion First of all, Yuri...Located far enough away that you have to take a busShe came to the main character's lecture roomAfter handing out a few invitations (I think it was just one in the first place)She lured him to the cafeShe took out a maid outfit that she had never worn before and had a private meeting with the main characterThe fact that the only person she showed this side to was the main character,I guess the only person Yuri called master is the main character?Besides...Since there are hardly any customers in the morning, there would have been plenty of time to do the dishesBesides, she clearly called him for a tea party She uses the excuse that the dishes are being washedShe unleashes her ultimate move, 'feeding him directly'Even this alone is enough for the main character to be KO'dOn top of that, even when the main character, who is more interested in the gravy than the steak, makes ridiculous demandsShe even shows a generous side by readily acceptingShe is truly a woman of charm who has it all (I believe the screenshot will explain the physical aspect)I felt like a femme fataleShe even appeared in the main character's dream before they even metSo you could say she's a femme fatale in another senseSo, I'll wrap up my reasons for choosing my best pick character with about 80% jokes and 20% seriousness...I'll wrap up my reasons for choosing my best pick character...Let's get back to serious mode for a moment I'll post the scene I liked the most with YuriI'll finish the articleThe reason I liked this scene the most wasIt's because it shows Yuri's affection and lingering feelings for Cafe Hypatia, which is both beautiful and lonely It was because it showed Yuri's affection and lingering feelings for Cafe HypatiaWhen I first entered Hypatia I noticed that it was a fancy building that nobles would useBut through my conversation with Yuri, I learned that the space, which was once a video set and full of dreams, The business changed to a cafe due to the reality of the declining commercial districtEven that is facing the risk of closure and is emptying out as people don't visit it, After learning that it was a space like a setting sunThe game's background felt more specialBut when I saw Yuri's face smiling faintly while receiving the evening sunset on the second floor of that empty Hypatia She felt like a more alive character...So this scene was my favorite in the demoI'll finish the article hereThank you for reading the long article
[BugReport] The section I'd like improved more than typos and bugs is... [1]
In the section where you first write your nameFor exampleHashiruHashirukaHashiruka48, etc.In 'Please tell us your name.'The name that is output after writing it seems somewhat different.Some names are entered completely, while others are cut off in the middle.

Is it delicious? It's the line section.There are many pictures of the characters showing big eyes,so I captured the part where I couldn't see my eyes when I smiled.It's most fun when you show various appearances in this section.In the story with YuiIt was a Hypatia game demo with good news expected.Yuri, who looks best in a maid outfitis my one pick.I'm also looking forward to voice actress Joo Ye-jin's performance.I'm looking forward to the game's release.Fighting!
