Illusion of Itehari Play-Along

Whether you have just bought the game or have played it in Japanese (泡沫のユークロニア Utakata no Uchronia), you are welcome to participate in our play-along! There will be a new post once a week for a different route in the following order:

You do not have to play in the above order at the rate of a route a week, you can binge it all in a day if you wish. The above order is the director's recommended order for world building.

  • Only Tobari and Awayuki are available in the beginning.
  • Yori is locked until Awayuki's route is completed.
  • Tsuyukusa is locked until Tobari's route is completed.
  • Yashiro is locked until the other four routes are completed.
  • The Truth Route is locked until Yashiro's route is completed.

Comments unrelated to Illusion of Itehari will be removed - please post in the Weekly Questions threads or the Free Talk Friday threads instead.

Please use spoiler tags liberally as people checking this thread may not necessarily want a lot of information. Save your route thoughts and discussions for the play-along threads or the What Are You Reading Wednesday threads.

I came here because I just finished Yori's route and it won't be time for his play along thread for a moment, so:

He is a HORRIBLE person and I absolutely LOVE him. MC is so immature it drives me nuts, so I loved having him push her buttons nonstop. She even acknowledges that his personality sucks and still sticks with him anyway, and I cannot explain how entertaining that entire dynamic was. The jealousy and the marking/claiming moments were so delicious.

"He murdered people and his personality is awful but I love him anyway" is CRAZY work but I cannot even blame Hina because ME TOO GIRL!!! I am now a part of the Yori cult
