I said it in the stream, but it's worth repeating: Serika deserves to be in a much, much better game.
The worst part is that because she's in such a bad game there's no chance of her making a cameo or even being referenced to in other Tokimeki games.

That sure was the most Tokimeki Memorial 3 way that game could have ended. I can't wait til you guys see it.

I know I'm going to let the trainwreck stand as is, but would you guys be interested in seeing a second run of the last 6 months to do it "right", or is it best to let this game die and just move on to the next?

I've really come to like Serika, so if it's no trouble, I'd really like to see it. Plus, in this LP, you've played the Tokimeki Memorial series as an expert perfectionist, why stop now? :v:

Yeah, that crossed my mind as well. Must at least have been something way worse than just accidentally ending up with Emi, the way everyone who saw the stream is reacting in the thread.

I'm also for redoing the last six months, by the way. Serika deserves better than this!

Based on these reactions I'm thinking maybe he got the "alone forever" ending despite doing everything "correctly," or maybe Serika chooses Yabe over Goon because he didn't meet some absurd requirement like defeating him six months prior, or something. In either case I'm excited to see just what the hell happened.
:allears:

e: Wait, wait, I know:
Goon: "Serika left me a note to meet her on the hill among the swirling cherry blossoms.. hm. I wonder what she wants."
Serika: "Oh.. Goon! ..You wore that? Please think about the other people you're seen in public with."

Maybe we got the Tomoda ending. Unfortunately, the bros forever ending is extra-awful in this game, considering Yabe and whatever the other guy's name is.

I don't want to put you through the hell of getting this game to cooperate, but on the other hand, I want this game to deliver on the one good thing it has going for it that it wouldn't even share with us in the ending. If you can't get it in one more run-through of the last 6 months, though, it's not worth your suffering, and we should just move on to Girl's Side (my vote) or TM4.

Also, I'm waiting for that image from last night to get into an update so it can fulfill it's ultimate destiny of being your avatar, Sheep.

I'd like to see which ending you ended up with. It would be really crappy if it was the Forever Alone ending.

I agree with Shofra and EagerSleeper in that you should try to get a proper ending if you can from the six months ago save and if you can't just move on to Girl's Side or Tokimeki 4.

Those wondering, Twitch still has the archived stream up for watching, if you have 3 ½ hour to spare. (There is very little reloading going on!)

I'll vote for try to get the proper ending but don't waste yourself doing it.

I appreciate that the animation for losing an aikido match is just the protagonist slipping and falling like an idiot.

Also I guess give us a truncated version of whatever actually happened and then get the proper ending, assuming it won't be ridiculous to get it.

I just skipped to the end, didn't notice anything in particular. That looked like a proper ending to me, so I'd like to know what actually happened.

Ok, having just watched the stream (I don't recommend this, because the surprise will be much better if you wait):

Jesus christ, that's the last thing I expected. I don't know whether you should show it off (because Serika deserves better) or leave it hanging, as the game's final insult.

Maybe we should all wait, then. You keep hyping this up, people are going to be disappointed if the game's author doesn't come over to vibratingsheep's house and dickslap him mid-stream. Plus, it's kind of annoying hearing people go OH THAT THING WAS AMAZING YOU KNOW THE THING WE'RE NOT GOING TO TELL YOU ABOUT BUT IT WAS AN AMAZING THING YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE.

Jesus christ. Yeah, you're going to have to show the real ending/event, because that was just too loving stupid an ending otherwise.

Sorta spoilers for people who don't have 3 hours to watch the stream

You know that big secret the game keeps alluding to with Serika? Why she's getting hurt and missing out on poo poo? Sheep somehow loving MISSED the event where she explains it, so the question was never answered. Sheep didn't do anything wrong, the game just completely hosed him

Honestly, my answer here depends on exactly what it impacts. Did we just miss one event? Does Sheep have a way of knowing what it was so that he can just explain it to us? Even if it is an important event for the character's development, gently caress this game, give us the info and move on. Does missing this event mean that other things were missed or different as well? Probably worth trying again before the next game.

Or we can just go on pretending she's the P4 FeMC and just roll with that for her backstory, it's probably better than what the game came up with anyway.
