Geez I love this execution. There isn’t much to the premise and what happens But you can tell it’s a gut punch for Melody Pretty(as she thinks she is). It’s definitely gonna cause despair to voice act but admit the things that you never thought you were.
Okay, okay, I'm gonna guess some of the crimes characters have. It's 5 am and I barely slept so give me a bit of a break. Spoilers below. Yui (Composer girl) - Bullied girls to suicide. The way she's acting with everything, she seems like someone who was a rather manipulative person prior to this killing game and she seems like one now. Rei - I.....really have a bad feeling that Rei did something absolutely awful and sees even himself as a monster and is simply acting the way he is to A. prepare others for the inevitability of his crime being revealed, my evidence being in Daily Life 1 where he says "some people are just...terrible people" or B. get a reaction out of other people, cause that may be his motive for whatever crime he committed. Alora - Something involving an explosion. I don't know what exactly, but it'll involve an explosion. Eichi - My guess, he's a scammer. Either by scamming fans out of money (is he famous???) or by stealing from gacha games by cheating in some form. He's befriending Kotaro, who faked his talent so it might be an empathy thing with him faking is talent to an extent as well. Lyra - I really don't think she did anything too awful imo, I don't know what she could've done exactly but she....I know I might be falling into a trap but she seems like the normal type of person in the group. I mean, someone else has to have a petty crime if Dracul got brought in because of fucking shoplifting of all things. Dracul - I really do think his crime was shoplifting. Sometimes the mundane answer is the true answer. It could be that or something different. Little Sister - People did horrible things to her and she ended up either A. snapping and killing someone or B. the crime itself is the horrible things done to her because of some legal loophole shit Ringmaster - She was actually an incompetent ringmaster behind the scenes, not getting performers treatment after having them go through dangerous acts kind of thing. Shinki - I.....really don't know, there's so much things that he could've done. It's even possible that he didn't even do anything and either got framed or was just randomly put into the killing game in hopes that no one ever has to bring us his crime. This is a stupid theory, but it's funny. Arsonist - Maybe something anti government or rebellious. She mentions that the insurance system is flawed, she could've done a similar thing to Mint. I'm guessing she might've told Mint her own crime at one point. My guess on who's going to die next? Taka, his crime was rather glossed over and someone might get pissed because of that. I'm not gonna try and guess a killer though. Hope this doesn't ruin any plans cause this is not the intention lol, it's only predictions and me guessing for fun.
This is probably the most interesting concept I've seen for a fangan and absolutely switches the way you see characters. Taka going from funny to disturbing for how willing he is to go for the sake of entertainment. Kotaro going from an interesting source of knowledge to well....nothing too extreme but something that shows that he's not as smart as he says he is. Melody Pretty. She's a beautifully, tragically written character and within one trial, she became one of my favorites if not my favorite in this cast. Kiyoshi's absolutely disturbing one, although a really disturbing one like that was going to happen eventually. I'm just imagine how terrifying the situation is as it's played out, like holy shit, he usually didn't even hurt the girls apparently but it's still very gross.
Wow, in comparison to Kiyoshi's crime, everyone else's don't seem so bad really. Never thought crazy Melody Pretty could be so entertaining anyway. Although, I think it would be better if you allow us to see the truth bullets prepared for each debate without having to click on the weakpoints, it's a bit unfair when we don't know which weakpoint is wrong because we don't know if we have the truth bullet for it. Also, the part where Maiko said "I'm just a simple voice actress... that can't be used for murder!" wouldn't both "Ismene's Scream" and the "Smashed Device" be valid?
just got into the trial and, for now, my main suspect has to be the voice actor ig?, since she could have used her talent to make that scream sound like Ismene’s. plus, she seemed kinda driven with her character and showed no mercy in terms of willingness to forgive the 3 whose crimes have been revealed so far. still, if her ‘purpose’ would be to punish criminals, why go for Dracul, out of all people? after all, despite the fact that there’s no proof to back up his claim about being nothing more than a shoplifter, he doesn’t seem like the type who’d be able to lie so nonchalantly about that. but this logic still seemes flawed, since not long after she said something at the party, as if she were there, that scream was heard from somewhere else. so unless she created a situation in which a recording of her own voice would go off at a specific time in order to lure in someone who’d be concerned about Ismene, like Dracul, there’s no way it could have been her. still don’t get the motive though. is she really some sparkling justice/light yagami kin? that’s just the vibe she gave me, but, thinking back on it, the crime was kinda sloppy. would someone with such ideals (or even someone who’s committed crimes for such a purpose before, since she’s supposed to be a criminal just like everyone else) just mess things up like that and desperately try to cover things up by creating a fucked up crime scene to distract the others from the investigation? why did Dracul end up being the victim? because, considering that the scream was not Ismene’s, it means that someone was trying to lure him or maybe soneone else who’d care about her in. his attitude regarding the scream was also kinda odd, because he insisted on going alone. did he, perhaps, have a feeling things wouldn’t end up well for him? did he know something? even more, was he planning something? he might have been the nicest guy around here, but his hostages could have been his sisters. and family was the most important thing to him. what if he actually DID consider murder or even going further than that. and someone ended up killing him, maybe unintentionally, in order to stop him. was this crime planned and something went wrong along the way? if what mononeko said about the clothes is true, then the murderer has to be someone who attended the party. and that should be the truth, since the three who haven’t attended it were together. kiyoshi was out of the room for a while though. could anyone really attest that he’d been waiting there all that time? especially since alora and ismene were preoccupied by their ‘drinking session’. we could also question the validity of alora’s and ismene’s claims, but that would mean they were working together, which wouldn’t be beneficial. unless one of them got too drunk and the other took advantage of their state, but they would have surely noticed if something like that were to happen. especially Alora. if she’s even let something like that happen on her watch. another suspect would have to be Kotaro. he was the last one out of the party attenders to arrive at the party, wasn’t he? he could have created the screaming situation himself somehow. also, he was in charge of the food and the one who made the cake i think? due to his knowledge, he could have easily found a way to knock us out with some sort of drug, that could also be related to those bushes from which a potentially dangerous plant was ripped off. to top it off, i’m pretty sure i saw him in the library back then when our protag noticed something must have been recently taken from the box. i might be wrong about this, but that chibi looked like him. i actually found it odd that he was just standing there and that we didn’t even get to talk to him. thinking about it, he might actually be even more suspicious than Maiko. and we also found her throwing up at some point. she might be a great voice actor, but is she really that good of an actor? and about the voice? i suppose Kotaro’s voice is quite soft, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he’d be able to pull a convincing Ismene impression. or he could have also recorded her voice, but did Ismene even scream like that at any point for that kind of sound to be recorded in the first place? something like a voice changer would make more sense tbh, but i don’t think there was any device like that here. or was it? there’s a lot of stuff going through my head right now and i hope i didn’t get the facts wrong. i have to check the moments before the scream again. this is just speculation at this point and i’m sure there are still quite a few loopholes in my logic. there are a few other suspicious individuals here, but i won’t talk about them, since the reasons for suspecting them are even pettier than the ones for these two. still, why make it all so gruesome? is this really the work of a sick fuck, or was the crime scene only supposed to be a distraction? if that’s the case, that surely is one hell of a distraction. but not one that would work for people like Alora ig🙄 or Taki, for that matter, who was acting as if no one actually died. guess we all have our own coping mechanisms.
55:55 Maiko has a point there. They were lucky there was other evidence leading to her Because with the plant regardless of if you were drugged or took it yourself. Wouldn’t you still feel the side effects?
spoilers for the end btw: so the end is obviously implying that lyra was in fact the person who's fault it was for Shinku's sister being captured but what did the other one imply? was she actually maiko? this is very interesting and a very cool fangan
And about characters - Emilia and Yui - hate them, Dracul/Asuga/Lyra and Kotaro are hilarious and I like them the most, the rest of the cast are neutral to me. I like the struggles of Shinku and that Rei in the weird way encourages him to be more confident and stop being a kind boy who everybody mocks and boss around.
Yui and Emilia got on my nerves too. I’m sure they have a plan for them though. Takahiro I like a lot. Some lines make me really laugh. Some lines I just want him to be quiet. But I cant hate them.
update: i can't believe i was right?? for the most part, at least. it was mostly my intuition that led me to the culprit than concrete proof that i didn't have/take into account at the time. also, i have a theory: one of the participants of this killing game is actually the protag's sister in disguise. the reasons for believing that is due to the final scene in this chapter + his motive video. seems like Lyra tried to make some sort of deal with his little sister by promising her she could impersonate an ultimate. therefore, she could be the reason why the sister ended up in the killing game in the first place. that could explain most of the motive video, if not the whole thing. they couldn't take her hostage, but not because she ran away. instead, she was with them all this time, so she was technically already being held hostage. and taking her away from the other participants would only raise suspicion. and of course they would know her location, since she's here with everyone else. and one of the other participants, Lyra, could be the reason why she ended up here. her being the mastermind or even working with the mastermind would be too obvious ig, so the deal she tried to make with the sister could be related to something other than the killing game. as for who the sister is impersonating, Ismene would be my first choice. in terms of appearance at least. especially when it comes to the eyes. also, Dracul claimed in the beginning of this game i think? or a bit later maybe? that Ismene was calmer and nicer before she got face 2 face with the protag, but after she met him she got pretty tense and ended up being meaner and a bit more agitated overall. since the sister has always been in his shadow cause the protag had an ultimate, while she didn't, that could explain the sudden shift in attitude. and if this were a simulation, then i guess she could have an avatar that would look completely differerent from her. even someone really short or a boy. but i tend to believe this is not a simulation, which means that the one she's impersonating would have to look at least a bit like her. or have similar measurements (those could also be messed with ig, but it has to be someone to fit certain profile criterias at least). Maiko and Alora are unlikely candidates, even if they could probably fit the physical profile. if anything, i guess it could also be Yui. people might think she's trying to get closer to the protag because she's desperate to get a boy or something, but what if she's looking for something entirely different in him? still feels a bit odd, so i'll prolly stick with Ismene. this could prove to be just a crazy theory, but i'll stick with it for now. after all, i still have some more content to get through, so i might find something about this in the meantime.
I’m wondering. What if the one innocent student gets their crime fabricated by mononeko I mean there’s only so many people. And three of the crimes get revealed each get to know your classmates
I finished the game and must say I enjoy it :p The voice acting is smooth and rpg maker graphics are cool. Though I must also say my complaints regarding the game and that there's no map option which sucks coz idk where the characters are during free time events, the area is quite big and it's annoying to constantly look for someone. Speaking of fte I'm not a fan of if you get the option wrong you don't get to spend a time with a character and some of the questions are kinda random so I hope in chapter 2 the questions will be removed. Someone already mentioned it but the lack of truth bullets or any informations regarding the investigations is a little bummer since I like solving the mystery who dunnit ( also the investigation is very short compare to the other segments of the game - not sure how to feel about that )
Realized i never left a coment here LIL
It was so fun working on the new CG'S, and i hope to keep working with y'all!
Alt title: Shinku goes through the five stages of depression and fights everyone ...with words
Geez I love this execution. There isn’t much to the premise and what happens
But you can tell it’s a gut punch for Melody Pretty(as she thinks she is).
It’s definitely gonna cause despair to voice act but admit the things that you never thought you were.
22:33 So I'm applying the impeccable technique of suppressing my emotions! Ahahahhah! It is very 'Poggers'!
I'm dying xD
1:07:28 Damn... Rei tore right through Maiko- Sorry, Melody Pretty, with that one speech. He is a total savage, and I love it!
Okay, okay, I'm gonna guess some of the crimes characters have.
It's 5 am and I barely slept so give me a bit of a break. Spoilers below.
Yui (Composer girl) - Bullied girls to suicide. The way she's acting with everything, she seems like someone who was a rather manipulative person prior to this killing game and she seems like one now.
Rei - I.....really have a bad feeling that Rei did something absolutely awful and sees even himself as a monster and is simply acting the way he is to A. prepare others for the inevitability of his crime being revealed, my evidence being in Daily Life 1 where he says "some people are just...terrible people" or B. get a reaction out of other people, cause that may be his motive for whatever crime he committed.
Alora - Something involving an explosion. I don't know what exactly, but it'll involve an explosion.
Eichi - My guess, he's a scammer. Either by scamming fans out of money (is he famous???) or by stealing from gacha games by cheating in some form. He's befriending Kotaro, who faked his talent so it might be an empathy thing with him faking is talent to an extent as well.
Lyra - I really don't think she did anything too awful imo, I don't know what she could've done exactly but she....I know I might be falling into a trap but she seems like the normal type of person in the group. I mean, someone else has to have a petty crime if Dracul got brought in because of fucking shoplifting of all things.
Dracul - I really do think his crime was shoplifting. Sometimes the mundane answer is the true answer. It could be that or something different.
Little Sister - People did horrible things to her and she ended up either A. snapping and killing someone or B. the crime itself is the horrible things done to her because of some legal loophole shit

My guess on who's going to die next? Taka, his crime was rather glossed over and someone might get pissed because of that. I'm not gonna try and guess a killer though.
Hope this doesn't ruin any plans cause this is not the intention lol, it's only predictions and me guessing for fun.
This is probably the most interesting concept I've seen for a fangan and absolutely switches the way you see characters.
Taka going from funny to disturbing for how willing he is to go for the sake of entertainment.

Melody Pretty. She's a beautifully, tragically written character and within one trial, she became one of my favorites if not my favorite in this cast.
Kiyoshi's absolutely disturbing one, although a really disturbing one like that was going to happen eventually. I'm just imagine how terrifying the situation is as it's played out, like holy shit, he usually didn't even hurt the girls apparently but it's still very gross.
EVERYTHING!! THE ART, MUSIC AND STORYLINE IS SO GOOD!! Keep up the good work!!
BRAVOOOOOOOOOOO THIS FANGAME IS AMAZING, I LOVE THE VOICE, ART AND GAMES IN THE TRIAL I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE CHAPTER TWO
Wow, in comparison to Kiyoshi's crime, everyone else's don't seem so bad really. Never thought crazy Melody Pretty could be so entertaining anyway. Although, I think it would be better if you allow us to see the truth bullets prepared for each debate without having to click on the weakpoints, it's a bit unfair when we don't know which weakpoint is wrong because we don't know if we have the truth bullet for it. Also, the part where Maiko said "I'm just a simple voice actress... that can't be used for murder!" wouldn't both "Ismene's Scream" and the "Smashed Device" be valid?
This is amazing. So far, KIyoshi, Taka, Melody Pretty, Mint, Ismene, and Kotaro cannot be the innocent student.
Great work everyone! I’m loving this!
Character opinions so far:
Love: Maiko/Melody, Taka, Dracul, Taki, Eiichi, Mint, Lyra
Like: Alora, Kotoro, Ismene, Kiyoshi, Rei,
Neutral: Anyone else I didn't name lol
Dislike: Emilia
Am actively wishing death upon: Yui

@@Hazatroll I’m still on chapter one so I never should’ve looked at this😭
That was really good. I enjoyed playing a lot! I can't wait for Chapter 2!!
40:13 Okay can we just see how Taka literally says UWU??
just got into the trial and, for now, my main suspect has to be
the voice actor ig?, since she could have used her talent to make that scream sound like Ismene’s. plus, she seemed kinda driven with her character and showed no mercy in terms of willingness to forgive the 3 whose crimes have been revealed so far. still, if her ‘purpose’ would be to punish criminals, why go for Dracul, out of all people?

55:55
Maiko has a point there. They were lucky there was other evidence leading to her
Because with the plant regardless of if you were drugged or took it yourself. Wouldn’t you still feel the side effects?
spoilers:
Maiko: I don't wanna die! I'm melody pretty or some shit!
Me: Mononeko stop fucking dragging this on and execute this boyfriend killer!
Please keep on going with this fangan i love this .
I also Love taka he's so fuuny
her breakdown was the best and the art was good
All this is just making me more curious what crimes Rei and Eiichi did that would get them locked up. And was Dracul being honest about his crime?
spoilers for the end btw:
so the end is obviously implying that lyra was in fact the person who's fault it was for Shinku's sister being captured but what did the other one imply? was she actually maiko? this is very interesting and a very cool fangan
And about characters - Emilia and Yui - hate them, Dracul/Asuga/Lyra and Kotaro are hilarious and I like them the most, the rest of the cast are neutral to me.

I mean there’s only so many people. And three of the crimes get revealed each get to know your classmates

Interesting, rewatching this there were like 3 different pronunciations of Ismene
Just as intended.
But this was cute 59:15
I love how everyone says ismene differently loll
I finished the game and must say I enjoy it :p The voice acting is smooth and rpg maker graphics are cool.
