oh and I finished my otome game. well just kai's route. I really loved it and it touched me in a way I'd find it hard to articulate. kai is a fantastic character imo, very well-written. I got his best ending and uhm, at the end there... everyone in that cafe fangirling over him must've had their jaws drop when they heard him tell the MC that, after they hang out there, they'd be going to his place, so he can say things "he can't say in public." everyone in that cafe now thinks these two popular up-and-coming actors are gay as fuck. and well are they wrong

#also I will say some of the conflict in the story falls flat when you're consistently The best student you can be #I'm really not worried about getting transferred out of the class for unsatisfactory results given that I've gotten gold for every #performance so far and haven't even gotten CLOSE to getting any grade but an SS on any song or dance #also tachibana is a pretty likeable if subdued/not very emotionally reactive otome MC #I found her a lot less insufferable than byakuya 😝 SORRY. I think byakuya had emotional depth to her as well and the writers had to wrestle #with the fact that they're writing from a very difficult very sheltered perspective #but idk despite tachibana being a high schooler and byakuya being a young adult... tachibana felt a lot more mature #their different life experiences account for that to some extent yeah but maybe it's just because tachibana wasn't reacting to everything #with baffled confusion and processed things in a much more natural & non-panicky way #also I personally can't relate to byakuya being very um..? avoidant? jokingly hostile? because of her shyness around intimacy #and because she did that A LOT it really annoyed me and made me feel less connected to her as a character #now there was obviously no physical intimacy in this game beyond hugging but #even tachibana'#s reactions to emotional closeness were better. she could be surprised without getting weirdly aggresive and actually appreciated the moment
