Trigger Warning for Helix Waltz

It's in the fourth main quest for Chapter 5, I think you have to be around level 50. It's all implied and nothing happens to the protagonist, but I found triggering enough that it's taken me until now (like 2 weeks later) to feel up to writing about it.

It's an unavoidable quest, containing important information. I'm now 3 quests in Chapter 6, and none of the later quests have triggered me the same way, but the events of that one quest have left a lasting cloud over some characters for me. If anyone's played further, does this sort of thing come up again?

Also, I don't have triggers around disordered eating but some of the stuff in the game still makes me wince.

Since I find the topic triggering I may have to archive comments without replying, sorry.

Content note: rape. Some spoilers.

Shall We Date: Demon's Bond Masterpost and character guide

A phone-based dating sim, this is a prequel to Hakuoki set 300 years earlier, but can be played as a stand alone game. It's set during the end of the Warring States/Sengoku period of Japan in the early 17th century.

The heroine, Yukina, is a ninja bodyguard to a demon princess, and chieftan of a demon clan in her own right. The princess has gathered the leaders of Japan's demons to ask them an important question, and Yukina finds herself drawn into human politics and also...possibly finding love with one of the other demon chieftans? This is part of the Shall We Date series of dating sims, so it feels like love is definitely on the cards ;)

The prologue is free but each love interest's route costs $5US (aprroximately ten million dollars Australian)

Shall We Date: Demon's Bond (Kazuya Chapters 1 and 2)

Masterlist of links

I slept on it and took the sensible option. You better not turn out to be secretly creepy, Kazuya...

So far it's pretty slow burn with lots of politics, but it is a Hakuoki prequel, and I'm having fun.

*actively avoids calculating how much $5 US is in Australian dollars*
