You're joking about that but do you have any idea how many visual novels absolutely pissed me off because they introduce a minor side character that's way hotter than the main heroines but they don't give them a romance route?
Apparently this started being published in 2020, so this explains a lot.
Still, kinda of a weird read when you take into account the current situation.
That last chapter reminds me of the drama with a certain hololive member. Man, what a depressing topic, why cause so much shit over some inconsequential nonsense?
