I finally reach the end of the common route, and I am finally starting to genuinely ship Chitose/Yukina.

AND HERE WE ARE AT THE (GOOD) END

Japanese history: 50%
Anime-esque fantasy nonsense: 20%
Yukina kicking ass: 20%
Romance: 10%

This is not a complaint. I loved it.

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.

SO IT TURNS OUT THERE'S A HAKUOKI PREQUEL PHONE GAME

(Which I am pretty sure I knew but forgot, because I didn't have the ability to play phone games yet)

It's set during the Warring States period of Japan, about which I know basically nothing (ok, I know there were multiple states, and they warred), and I am all set to be entirely overwhelmed by ten million names and events I have no context for. The protagonist and all the love interests are demons, and one of them looks like a more androgynous Sesshōmaru :D (The hot demon villain from Inuyasha, who I and many other 90s teen anime fans imprinted on)

This is one of those games where the prologue is free but the routes for each dude have to be paid for individually, they cost $5 each. The prologue is VERY short but quite promising so far, so I probably will buy at least one route.

I have a cold and am feeling self indulgent, thus starting a new game instead of finishing the pile I have waiting. I also may be a bit incoherent. But you don't need to know anything about Hakuoki to play the game or understand this post.
