2. Story (from g-collections)
Just days before graduation, Ryo recalls his life as a student and the various
people who were part of it.
Kaho Nagira, who dragged him into the literary arts club when he was a Freshman.
Kaho's younger friend Kyoko Ashihara, who had a crush on him.
Yuka Otowa, who was always alone, no matter who she was with.
The school nurse Kaori Shitoh, who always had a bed waiting for him to take a nap
in.
And...
Last but not least, his big sister Ayame, who did her best to protect him after
the death of their parents.
Those were real experiences leaving real memories...
Days we thought would last forever...
3. General Hints/Tips
This game is categorized as a multi-ending 'Pure love novel adventure' game,
which basically means the equivalent of other Romance type ADV, decision-tree
games. Your response to a particular girl may alter the outcome of each girl.
This walkthrough will lead you to individual endings for each girl.
Make sure to save often!
*Notice the graphics are very detailedly drawn as one would expect from a
female artist.
4. Characters
Ryo Sasaki - Ryo Sasaki is the hero of our story. He's just an ordinary guy,
but because he doesn't often show his feelings to the others, many think of
him as curt, reticent, and lethargic. He skips a lot of classes, but it seems
he's calculated just how much he has to attend to graduate.
Kaho Nagira - Kaho, who is in the same class as Ryo, is the literary arts club
president. She has a friendly personality, and she's very popular. She seems the
quiet type, but when they were freshmen, she coerced Ryo into joining the club.
She can be extremely forceful. She likes Ryo more than as a friend, but she's
going steady with his best friend. She was friend with Kyoko before they
started high school.
Kyoko Ashihara - Kyoko is a year younger than Ryo and Kaho. Upon entering high
school, she joined the literary arts club. Kyoko met Ryo when she joined, and
it was love-at-first-sight. Usually, Kyoko seems a bit out in left field and
doesn't show how she really feels. She always looks like she just woke up.
Being taller than most girls, she feels awkward about her height.
Yuka Otowa - Yuka is in the same class as Ryo. She has a bright, outgoing
personality, but she pretends like she doesn't care about anything. She either
does this to piss people off, or she's just plain terrible at interacting with
others. She thinks of herself as dirty and has always dreamed of being pure
like an angel.
Kaori Shito - Kaori is the school nurse at Ryo's school. She got to know Ryo
because he always comes to the nurse's office to take naps, but it appears
she's known Ryo's sister Ayame for a long time. Kaori is beautiful, but she
talks like a guy, so most people think she's cold. It appears all the guys
except Ryo think so, too.
Ayame Sasaki - Ayame is Ryo's step sister. Ever since their parents were killed
in a traffic accident, she has taken care of him. She really enjoys watching
Ryo grows up; so much that she has set any plans for herself by the wayside.
It seems as though she isn't as interested in fads and fashions as most women
her age are.
Miyu - Sasaki met her when by accident by hearing her play the piano
Tomonori - reliable, honour student
