f12 time

off to a....spicy start

i like how its setting its premise up tbh

also just.... deeply enjoying the art. cool concept. cool art. music so far has done its job (havent heard nearly enough of the ost to judge) so i& #39;m really hopin it executes its concepts well

oh i dont like this

dont like this scoob

on a side note the rules to this elimination game are fucking dense and i feel like i should be taking notes

here& #39;s a god damn snippet of the elimination game rules. what the shit i& #39;m too stupid for this.

h-hey.....

man would really threaten to kill a newborn to get the info he needs to save his own life. ruthless. but thats how these elimination games go, huh

honestly the sheer brutality of the lengths ppl will go to put this above other elimination games tbh. a willingness to kill other participants ("its them or me") is on a whole different level than "i will take out ANYONE to save my own skin"

weeb spotted

WEEB CHILD WEEB CHILD

....oh
;A;

just a friendly "i will literally die for you because i love you" between pals

also bro we are suffering..... bro....

cant believe ppl criticized this for "protag going about her life as normal when shes in an elimination game" when she literally states on multiple occasions that maintaining a sense of normalcy in her life is the only thing keeping her together. the lack of reading comprehension

rinka: "bro we are (not) coping"

i am in physical pain

young kids accepting that they& #39;re going to die no matter what? that shit HURTS

the whole cast is shocked someone other than odette & alan elected someone. but also i am Suffering after this whole arc

only just finished week 4 out of 12. (and idk about the routes in this, like how many there are or w/e) it only gets rougher, huh?

honestly just been sitting here for the past half hour with my headphones off but unable to rly keep reading OR close out of it

ITS BEEN FOUR MONTHS???

how does the girl with a NATURAL GOLD STREAK in her hair not get caught tailing someone

i WILL destroy all terrible parents

one(many) fear

REAL SHIT

Teenager Having (Justified) Existential Crisis Snaps At Old Man

"well how might i cope with all of this, you ask? i simply ignore all of my problems until i no longer can"

(STRONGLY RELATE)

"hey edgy teen, you dont seem very invested in staying alive"

sometimes i get so deeply invested in the main plot and existential crises in the story that i get emotionally sucker punched by these lesbians simply bein....kinda cute with each other despite everything theyre dealing with

hey, why,

g o d

ENTIRELY forgot about rinka and miharu being the balck sheep of their class (for entirely opposite reasons: rinka looks like a punk ass kid who dyed her hair, and miharu is a super smart scholarship kid) theres so much going on i really forgot

where do they draw the line tho? if you asks me who iunn this image dyes their hair, i& #39;d guess uhhhhh everyone?? is pink hair natural in the f12 universe? is rinka& #39;s natural blonde bits REALLY that weird, comparatively?? i have many questions

is it not TRULY her hair but instead the look she& #39;s said to carry in her eyes? which manage to strike fear into a man who literally once threatened a room full of babies? is claiming its her hair just a cover for the REAL truth?

love this incredibly tense scene of what i& #39;m ASSUMING(??) is a bombing over....cheery school festival balloons

GIRL PLEASE DONT GET INVOLVED

oh god oh fuck

G O D D A M N I T

bro i& #39;m crying

i am emotionally devastated on every humanly possible level (theres so much emotion packed into this cg tho and i respect that)

wow same dude

i dont rly talk much abt the mafioso/pirate duo but theyre so god damn cheeky

GOD let these kids be okay

hey. ow.

(cries into my alcohol)

THIS IS GIVING ME EMOTIONAL WHIPLASH

HELP????

god she is starting to absolutely CRACK under everything

an unexpected voice of reason has arrived

;A;

can things not go wrong. for FIVE MINUTES?

SEEING HER PIRATE SHARK GRIN WHILE SHE& #39;S SITTING WITH THE FRILLY MUG IS SENDING ME GOODBYE

CHAOTIC BASTARD PIRATE

GODDDD

CHAOTIC. BASTARD. PIRATE.

rinka, what you consider "not that bad" never ceases to amaze me

rinka& #39;s learning how to use a gun i have no words djkhgkslhls

1. girl they JUST told you its a beretta call it by name smh
2. HJDLFSGHDSLHJSFG

wow thank you for the explanation rinka

really like the cgs in this

hm,

weirdly cute interactions

despite everything, i cant help but feel for the kid ;A:

(cw burns /// ) g o d

parca is the un-fun kind of bastard

man, she really gave this kid the kindest parting gift she could, telling him his life had value, regardless of if he had thrown it away, i-

honestly? yeah rinka you kinda dumb for saying that in your circumstances

THEYRE SO CUTE ITS UNREAL

me @ literally everything that happens in this vn

when you& #39;re about to the the girl you& #39;re in love with who& #39;s pledged her life to you that you wont let her die either and your cat kills the whole fuckin mood dsjkhgakalsghjlsfd

THIS IS SO CUTE WHAT THE FUCK

incredibly heterosexual thoughts there, rinka. thinking about her in a, how did you say it before? "friendly way"

i need to bring this image back

i am going to eat paint

i am going to enjoy every second of these happy moments bc i KNOW this vn is always 2 lines of text from making me cry. really keeps me on the edge of my suffering seat

i love everything about this scene. rinka not being able to contain herself seeing she reversed fate and saved her friend who& #39;s death she blamed herself for. knowing she looks like she& #39;s lost it. miharu, just there, being like "fine i wont get jealous" this is fucking ART

rinka making damn sure to tell naomi about the fact that she used a gun while filling her in on her death CEMENTS my thoughts that we were ROBBED of a good cg of rinka with a gun

i have my ...suspicions about miharu& #39;s cause of death from what little details on her personal life i& #39;ve seen. but god it is heartbreaking to see rinka developing her will to live while miharu is still so so willing to throw her life away

Throw her second chance at life away? Redo her death? I& #39;m not even sure what the wording should be here since everyone is technically already dead.

WHY IS THIS REMINDING ME OF. WELL. THIS

callout post for the goddess holding my friends& #39; lives hostage: predictable ass aesthetics

miharu, internally: "i am going to eliminate you myself for that comment"

bro WHAT

this kid is gonna need so much therapy (in which she cant even talk about what happened) if she makes it through this

odette: (shares her backstory with miharu)
BUT WILL YOU SHARE WITH THE CLASS???

my suspicions on miharu& #39;s cause of death were absolutely just confirmed ouch

y& #39;know i have to admit i was apprehensive of odette at first due to her design and certain fiction stereotypes that come along with that but she& #39;s so well written and theres constantly more fantastic details springing up from under that surface i cant help but love her

SHE& #39;S BI?

this is SO,

MIHARU?? CALM DOWN GIRL

MIHARU.....

odette, knowing shes gonna get eliminated soon: "i want to fight the only motherfucker who can hold a candle to me in hand to hand combat before i go out and YOURE gonna watch"

RINKA YOU& #39;RE SO FUCKING STUPID

i cannot deal with how DUMB this girl is holy SHIT

HELP HER

PWEASE DONT DO THIS

i am going to physically manifest asshole goddess parca in reality and beat her to d34th with my own two hands if they dont get a happy ending

mao is a chaotic force and i respect her

HGJKLDFSGHL HELP HER

rinka, on the 287th time miharu confesses to her: "wow ok shes really in love with me for real"
rinka is the definition of stupid lesbian and i can support that as a fellow idiot who has been in a similar spot

rinka: "idk if i& #39;m in love"
also rinka after miharu& #39;s confession: "i will eliminate everyone else until its just me and miharu and we will SEE what fate has in store for us THEN"

fucking GET HIM

HEY THIS IS A VERY WEIRD TIME TO DROP THIS INFO

GET IT TOGETHER YOU IDIOT

SHES JUST ENTIRELY UNABLE TO ADDRESS THE ENTIRE TOPIC OF LOVE HELP HER

i& #39;m about to end this mans miserable existence myself

BAD END. good thing i save at every dialogue choice bc i have a big brain??

:thinking:

okay my literal very last choice was the wrong one so very quick path back. sexy

imagine your literal final living act being pissing off miharu? thats a terrible fucking omen dude you will rot

parca please shut up

are you this dense? are you really this dense? i cant deal with you

LOOK AT THEM AS KIDS

YOURE SO STUPID I& #39;M ROOTING FOR YOU

man if ONLY you had someone who you could talk to this about, maybe a friend who knew miharu confessed to you the instant she saw you after. if ONLY,

imagine the literal goddess of fate emotionally cucking you. i cant handle this

miharu: "i& #39;m a morosexual. i& #39;m attracted to morons and morons only. one time the girl i likes asked me the spanish word for tortilla and-"

FLASHBACK!RINKA I SWEAR TO GOD

mao mvp

you WILL survive or i WILL end parca myself

no rinka, you being 1/16th white does NOT explain you having a rare genetic condition

(in case your wondering the thing that would cause rinka& #39;s hair in reality is poliosis, tho its usually a TOTAL lack of pigment)

FUCKING OW

I HAATE HIM BUT FUCKING. OW,

i should stop for the night also for three reasons
-this seems to be a good stopping poist
-its430am and i have work
-i. drank a lot. too much??

rinka hasnt answered miharu but i know she loves her too i could write an essay on this theres so much evidence

immediately back into rinka being a dumb gay idiot

i mean, you& #39;ve had MUCH bigger problems kid

girl its okay you can cheat just once your literal life is more important than your finals

alan is such a great dude and i love rinka coming to realize that all of her opponents in the elimination game are also people with complex, vivid lives, no matter how easy it is to view them as "enemies"

HELLO?

idk abt the scrawny mafioso you& #39;re addressing but /i/ was hoping youd say that after hes hit on you so many times knowing you& #39;re in high school

g o d

BRO ARE THESE REALLY GONNA BE YOUR DYING WORDS DKHGSLFGHSL

o-oh, no these are gonna be his dying words,

i am going to

beat parca to d34th

off topic but i have. 3 whole pages of saves so far

"FOR SOME REASON"

OH FUCK ITS TIME?

HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY WHY HEY HEY

hey. why.

Oh No.

hey hey you were a kid none of how you responded makes you horrible hey

once again i must say MAO MVP

girls mother got her so fucked up that normal teenage jealousy sent her straight over the edge i-

this is an absolute unit of a line that i absolutely wasnt ready to get hit with

please dont let all of rinka& #39;s hope be for nothing i swear to god

YOU& #39;RE PUTTING THIS... ON /ME/

YOU& #39;RE DOING THIS TO ME TWO TEXT BOXES IN A GOD DAMN ROW

i save at literally every choice box so this is incredibly funny

MIHARU WAS SO READY TO BE REJECTED SHE HAD A FUCKING SPEECH READY I-

(also dear god rinka you are fucking terrible with words)

SHES SO FUCKING STUPID HELP HER

H E L P H E R

she handles her embarrassment like such an absolute fucking loser for someone who has stared down men twice her size to defend others i have no CHOICE but to stan

yeah you& #39;ve both like. killed people. or ~redid their deaths~ or however you wanna phrase it

OH THEY ACTUALLY ARE TALKING ABOUT THE DIVINE SELECTION LMAO

this is a smart idea but after all the "i will die for yous" idk how much i believe HHHHHHHHHHH

WAIT. INTERRUPTING CONVERSATIONS. SHOWING UP AT WEIRD TIMES. BEING TEMPERAMENTAL. IS PARCA POSSESSING THE FUCKING CAT

P E R I S H

HM,

I HATE BEING RIGHT!! FUCK!!!

I& #39;M GOING TO SCREAM FOR REAL IN REAL LIFE

i will fucking END you

this is the face of evil

i& #39;m fucking sobbing

i want to get off of the course of fate& #39;s wild ride

i am not emotionally prepared to go thru the scene of her death

shut the FUCK up

it is with a heavy heart that i must accept she is going to keep talking

bro this hurts

g o d

shes just going thru so god damn much grief over everyone who died for...nothing at this point. i& #39;m-

HELLO PARCA FUCK OFF??

this is. fucked up

OH FUCK IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW BUT FUCK

B R U H

HOW IS THIS EVEN STILL GOING THIS FEELS LIKE A BAD END BUT

get me off of this ride

"good friends"

i mean this scene objectively owns but like i& #39;m still not happy

ow

parca is dead but at what FUCKING cost

girl i& #39;m at that point too

i& #39;m so emotionally exhausted why are you still forcing me to make choices

if this is whats called "false hope" i will strangle him

HELLO??????????

man, of course that was the wrong choice.

its not the WORST ending but like. fuck dude i just want them to be happy this isnt FAIR

OH THERES MORE AFTER THE CREDITS

still not getting my hopes up anymore my heart hurt

oh. its the. uh what did parca call it? juncture of causality? where they all woulda been at the same time. i FORGOT abt this

OH MY GOD DOES SHE STILL HAVE SOME POWERS

its hard not to get...emotional. to say the least

ALAN& #39;S SISTER IS A WEEB????

oh, these especially make me feel something

AAAAAAAAAAAA

certainly not the True Ending but it at least pasted a tiny band-aid on my deeply torn up heart

here is that cg but like. on its own

two endings down out of? 7? one of which was a v short one lol

On one hand I& #39;m glad that ending wasn& #39;t the true ending. It& #39;s wishful thinking. It& #39;s fanfic tier. It undermines rinka& #39;s entire journey. On the other hand. It did help take the pain of everything away, just a little. You can have little a wishful thinking, as a treat.

I AM calling it a night but like. I hope the true ending don& #39;t hurt TOO bad

Current Mood

Actually. Props to f12 for having a cute fanfic tier "you have undone fate, everyone never died" end and it being....nice? But feeling so adamantly contrary to rinka& #39;s development over the story to just forget everything that I can& #39;t accept it. It& #39;s a nice bandaid but that& #39;s all.

I really do want miharu to live tho. I hope that doesn& #39;t come at the cost of outright rejecting her.

I think, given rinka& #39;s emotional turmoil over the loss of miharu, it makes sense she would undk it all. Who wouldn& #39;t in her shoes? But I think, if they could both survive, she wouldn& #39;t want to forget everyone who& #39;s helped her along the way, at the cost of their lives y& #39;know?

Also I just TRULY wish for parca to be beaten at her own game. Not after it& #39;s conclusion, but during. I don& #39;t want her getting even a taste of victory. I want her to rot (assuming goddesses CAN rot) miserably without that smug look crossing her face ever again.

interestingly the replay pages gives good ideas of where path branches matter. regardless! i& #39;m going to just work backwards anyhow, but i refuse to reject miharu

first and fastest backtrack end. its far more bitter than the last i got but definitely not true end (i figured that before loading this state tho) but it is important, tbh, for rinka to not lose her development outright, despite the awful, awful cost

absolutely skipping this backtrack choice

alright lets go theres def a lotta plot after this

OH YES GIVE HER THE MOTIVATION TO SURVIVE

alright this is probably actually true end path knowing what i know now god bless god BLESS give her a reason to want to make it through

as absolutely cute as their dates were in the "starts dating DURING divine selection path", those will live on in my HEART and if they both survive they can do that WITHOUT the horrible, heartbreaking self sacrifice at the end

rinka is so painfully, clearly, already in love and it really must be hard to keep cutting herself off from her feelings when she thinks things like, well, THIS, but knows the two of them surviving is most important

RINKA YOURE SO FUCKING STUPID

WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT AWHT

bro i just want them to be happy

this is the fucking HOPE we needed in this bitch

I SEE,

imagine being related to that bastard

man if this was death note that& #39;s all you& #39;d need to take her down (it would also be WAY more boring of a story if it was that easy)

PLEASE work i& #39;m begging you

oh lore?

WAIT does this not mean. if parca is xiii, then. OH LORE?

how many breads have you eaten across the multiverse?

umineko but like. jungian

ok i was a little far off on the cat theory but not TOO far

HE REALLY SAID FUCKING. KONBANNYA

HGJKFDLSHGLFKSD

"friend"

yeah rinka i think youre just normal in that regard

HEY. STOP THAT LINE OF THINKING

oh my GOD mahiru is determined to live now i& #39;m gonna cry??

hell YEAH get motivated

oh HELL no

the absolute difference in their grades. sapiosexual/morosexual power couple

oh same

OH

100yr old consciousness confused by technology

i love how much of the cast has rooted for them. fuckin MOOD

i have nothing to say except that i love them and love having hope

god yeah those are some concerning numbers tbh

HDJFKLJFGHDLK GOD

miharu& #39;s only job option that allows her to cover her arms being a fucking maid cafe is TRULY the most tragic thing in this entire story

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

miharu reminds me ENTIRELY too much of my 17 year old self (down to the uhhhhhhh cause of attempted death but lets not get into that) so i& #39;m like. truly crying in the club right now

also deeply relate to rinka here and BASICALLY this vn is literally exposing me

its finally. time.

this is. a line i& #39;ve wanted to read for so long

GOD

oh shit its REALLY time

rinka is truly, truly great. despite everything, her unlimited capacity to forgive is truly moving. i& #39;m not even mad at parca anymore after reaching this point.

i am STUPID!! for ever holding hope!!!

bro,

g o d

this really do be hitting all the right notes

;A;

its really. wrapping up huh?

MAN,

i& #39;m at a loss for words at this point but MAN

this is SO

god bless miharu

RINKA OH MY FUCKING GOD

H

GOD I LOVE THEM

god

that sure was the true end, huh.

i still have. other endings to unlock but man. this vn. the true end. it all just hit and has left me feeling extremely raw

it might be a few days until i get back to fully completing it, while i let the true end, and everything else that& #39;s happened sink in. it really hit me in some incredibly personal ways. so for now, its truly, truly been an incredible ride. i& #39;m so glad that this VN exists
