In the romantic moment, Hisao asks Shizune if she wants to be his girlfriend. She says yes. Shizune is leaving for a week to visit her family in a nearby province.
But Hisao is hurt that Shizune hasn't invited him, especially since Misha is coming too. All three board a train and arrive at Shizune's father's house, which looks like a mansion. Hisao first meets Hideaki, Shizune's younger brother who Hisao mistakes for a girl due to his androgynous appearance. Strangely enough, Lilly is there too, with her sister Akira, an androgynous woman dressed as a lawyer. All six of them decide to go fishing on the opportunity to have Lilly cook some fresh fish for dinner.
But they spend more time deciding on rules and teams than any actual fishing. Shizune's father, Jigoro Hakamichi, makes his presence known the next day. He is a boisterous, loud, angry man who wears a Hawaiian shirt and a big beard. He constantly berates Hisao and most everyone else for being weak and girly and often says hypocritical or insulting things. One day, when Jigoro is haranguing Hisao that he should be more like him, Shizune and Misha return from shopping. Misha has gotten a drastic new haircut--shorter and sportier.
While Jigoro and Misha argue, Shizune and Hisao sneak off. They retreat to Hisao's room and have sex that night. Misha and Shizune go into town to pick up some last minute souvenirs, leaving Hisao alone with Jigoro. The obstinate man continually provokes Hisao into arguing and defamation, almost causing Hisao to lose his temper.
Thankfully, this is the last day of vacation and, despite a harrowing train trip, they return to school. At first, it seems like Shizune is mad at Misha because she's spending all her time in her work. Then Shizune worries that Misha is mad at her because she hasn't been working on Student Council stuff much lately. This all culminates when Misha follows Hisao back to his dorm one night. She feels depressed because she thinks she's been a bad friend and asks Hisao to "comfort her.
The next day, Hisao finds Misha on top of the roof, looking depressed. Edit source History Talk 0. Image Gallery. Cancel Save. Universal Conquest Wiki. Main Character. Romanceable Girls. Supporting Characters.
Also, to protect my identity. I'm like Superman. Hisao: Worst disguise ever. Hisao: This confirms what I have thought before but have never actually been able to confirm definitively: Shizune and Misha are the student council.
The whole student council. The Faceless : Iwanako, Hisao's crush at the start of the game, is never clearly seen. This even carries over to much of the fan art.
Facepalm : Early in Lilly's route, this is Hisao's response to her implying he is interested in Akira. Failure Hero : In Hanako's route, Hisao's attempts to help Hanako consistently make her psychological problems worse , a fact truly driven home after playing Lilly's path, where Hanako's complexes are much less severe and she opens up to Hisao a lot more. How badly you lose and the tactics that you use can make a difference though.
In Emi's route, Hisao will get thrown out of the house regardless of his choice, although the right choice will send him toward the good ending without having to make any more decisions. Fake Longevity : What makes each girl's storyline so long is that within each track to a certain ending, there are optional snippets of dialogue and pictures that can only be accessed by making the proper choices at each juncture.
This results in players having to repeat overly long and repetitive scenes, though thankfully there is an option to fast-forward through the dialogue. Fan Disservice : Rin's first H-scene is decidedly unsexy, as it reflects how she's more and more emotionally unstable. Even if you help her to get off and have some momentary relief, her problems are just about to get worse.. The same goes for Hanako's, since it's obvious that she's very not comfy - which makes sense when you reach the Good End and learn that it was more about showing Hisao that she's not a helpless child to be protected.
It's an H-scene played to the tune of Painful History , after all. Shizune's route also has one of these instances. Here's your sex scene with Misha, and she has a rather pudgy but cute body too! Only they're both guilt-ridden over the fact that Hisao is cheating on Shizune.
To make it worse, Misha only asked for it due to her emotional turmoil over her unrequited love for Shizune , and the guilt both Hisao and Misha feel over it winds up tearing the friendship apart and leading to Shizune's bad end in which she blames herself for what happened.
Although not on the same level as the above three, some found one H-scene in Emi' path to be this too. She and Hisao's experimentation with anal sex is so incredibly awkward for both of them that it becomes comical instead of titillating. Both repeatedly insist that they have no desire to try again.
Fanservice : The Soft Hour art book features almost nothing but erotic images of all the girls. The school and wider community celebrate Tanabata in Shizune's route.
Hisao plans on taking Lilly to Tanabata, but his second hospitalization thwarts this plan. Shizune suggests that they all go out for tea in her Good ending.
Five Temperaments Ensemble : The main five girls fit very well into the pattern. Their respective Fatal Flaw is also always directly related. Shizune is Choleric: Hardworking; ambitious, competitive, confrontational, craves domination In more ways than one Her only friend besides Hisao in her route is also her Yes Girl , with an unrequited love for her.
Emi is Sanguine: She exemplifies the Genki Girl trope, and shows both some humbling determination and a cheerful, energetic persona in everything she does. She's also a Stepford Smiler who avoid meaningful relationships so as to not get hurt, and refuse any kind of help, prefering insead to pretend against all evidences that everything is fine.
Misha is very similar, minus the stubbornness and determination. Rin is Melancholic, of the Cloud Cuckoolander variety rather than the brooding type. Passionate, creative, without social skills, she suffers from her difficulty at being understood, and, in her own route, is ready to go on a path of self-destruction for the sake of art.
Lilly is Phlegmatic: She maintains her composure in every situation, and presents to the world the facade of a serene, gentle Proper Lady. This also means that she avoid conflicts at any cost, even if it means ignoring what she truly wants; and Hisao, not knowing any better, does not pick up on this until it's almost too late.
She also ressents this introversion and the dependent relationship she has with Lilly and Hisao. Hisao himself is a more middle-of-the-road example, to the point where he tends to adopt some character traits and habits of whichever girl he ends up with.
Flat "What" : Kenji : "That blind broad is up to no good; I can feel it in my spleen, man. Her presence is like a dark shadow that's in the way of my great vision. As expected of blind people. Hisao : "What. Hisao : I don't mention how much more impressive her performance is given her lack of legs. I figure she knows that already. Besides, it seems like it would take away from her efforts, somehow. Rin's can be too for some people, although to a much lesser extent.
The devs have stated that the universal epilogue for each of the good endings is "And they lived happily ever after" even though we may not see it.
Made Myself Sad : Emi does this a few times by mentioning her dead father. Married to the Job : Art teacher Nomiya's old friend the curator Sae's husband had the exact same talent and drive as Rin, often shutting off all relations to the outside world to focus on his art, but ended up committing suicide, a foreshadowing of what could very well happen to Rin.
Medium Awareness : Possibly referenced or spoofed in the bad end for Act 1. During one of his rants, Kenji complains about the fact that he, unlike Hisao, has no possibility of making choices in his life, indirectly referencing the visual novel's multiple choice system. Meet Cute : Lampshaded when you first run into Emi - the name of one version of that particular scene is literally "Meet Cute".
Mentor : Lilly and Emi on their and Hanako's route, for Hisao. Men Don't Cry : Completely, utterly, unabashedly averted in Hanako's good ending, where she and Hisao completely break down in each other's arms and admit how little they really understand each other, but are still in love.
Also implied to happen in Lilly's good ending , and at one point early in Rin's route when he "let s tears roll down his cheeks and cries for his condition for the first and only time. Meta: Many of the mostly male players of the game admit to anything from Manly Tears to crying like a baby. Mistaken Message : Hisao sometimes can't tell if Misha is speaking for herself or Shizune.
This tends to confuse a lot of first-time players too. One instance that briefly confused Misha herself resulted in the classic line "Wait, I'm Misha Shizune : [Hisao, is he saying something insulting?
Tell him not to insult my friends! Shizune : signing There is no reasoning with you. So it looks like there is only one way to settle this: we are going to play for it. Shizune : signing The oldest game known to man, upon which the fate of nations has been known to rest: Rock-Paper-Scissors. Birds outside stop chirping. The wind dies down.
Somewhere, a man is drinking a cup of coffee. He freezes with the cup at his lips. Hisao: "I felt justified to vent my anger at her face just because I was no more justified than the teacher is.
Hisao : Competitive until the last. Maybe Lilly and Shizune aren't so different, after all. Scenery Porn : Dear God, yes.
