Not very common but not too uncommon (shit answer, I know)

But, I am going to take a wild guess and say yes this might be where Sel got the inspiration. Kanji for surname Sakakibara is most likely 榊原 due to its samurai origin. However, in the case of Kobe murder, the murderer wrote his alias Sakakibara intentionally as 酒鬼薔薇 in a full blown chuunibyou manner. A word-by-word direct translation to that alias is alcoholic rose (or rose of alcoholic depending on how poetic you want to be), and this alone fits Sara’s character all too goddamn well even before thinking about whether this inspiration extends to Shota’s death or not.

Well, I suppose that answers my question perfectly.
Cheers.

Problem isn't in attentions span. If you are playing from early builds there is little problem, but imagine yourself as a new player(or if you are lost your saves with old laptop death)... Game will turn from "a bit grindy" VN to Clicker Simulator, especially early on, when some character give 1 (ONE, just f-king ONE!!!) point of love per week. And there is 20-30 of them or is it more now? And if you want to grind lust for missable events? Ohohoho... Double amount of grind. Or some events require to know exact day, time and place to trigger and without them progress is blocked and there is a lot of such choke points because of partial form of game release.

Right now for new player it is hours of cross-cheking wiki for event which will progress story and very VERY boring grind for love\lust.

Anyone here would recommend the guide mod to avoid the big pitfalls, text skip can alleviate the worst of the grinding. And we've had someone give the game a decent go with AutoVN and it seems to work if all the grind must be skipped.

Other than that, you can't even reach chapter 1.5 until day 102. Man gave up during the tutorial portion of the longest VN, and then insisted all the reviews must be bullshit, nah fuck em. They can have a instant gratification wank.

When will we actually start making progress with Yumi?!
When will she become OUR princess?

You're at chapter 1 or something right? 0.48 had some Yumi events in them so you might end this with the smallest amount of emotional blue balls if you manage to get here.

No, I've finished the game.
I am just replaying it since I haven't played since 0.44 or 0.45.
Last event I remember was Io's green route.

But this gives me hope, maybe one day... one day we'll be on the good terms with Yumi, while Noriko is schlicking off in the background watching us.

What do these eyes mean?
I never managed to find out, the only theory I have is Sekai doing her mambo jumbo to connect to Ami's brain wirelessly

What are the events that fail if I choose to be a good uncle?

You miss a lot of events, some of which are not Ami related.
You even miss a threesome event.

There's also some really interesting story beats that are hidden in good uncle, but generally speaking you are supposed to be a bad uncle and the narrative makes sure to remind you of this constantly, some events being "broken" or "redacted".

You also canonically fuck Ami in one event no matter what, but it's skipped over, you don't gain any lust points, and the story continues as if it never happened. (Akira is not concious for it, it does not open up sex with her in the future either).

For reference, this is my event tracker (note one or two of these are intentionally missed seperate of the good uncle choice).

Oh no!
Someone was a decent human being and did not green-route Io!

You missed point. New player wouldn't even think that he need guide and auto vn mode(and by Murphy law they always will be few patches behind). I played it until i think 26-30 something part, lost my saves and now when i started replay i felt so tired just from skipping everything i remember. Story diluted with generous amount of water. Once again in a SMALL portions, part by part reliase it wouldn't be so noticeable or annoying, but when you go from the beginning... I honestly given up on replay for now. When i get past familiar parts i probably will regain interest, but definitely not now.

Try to step back and look a bit objectively before going in to the superposition of "there is mod to fix that" and "there is mod to skip this". No sane human will ever imagine amount of water this game hold and amount of grind without mods. But first impression very important, when it's ruined and shortly after someone told "hey there is mods to fixt this and that" most people will flip a middle finger at one suggested it, it's very normal reaction.

At least she’d be her true self the bleached blonde while at it. Praise fucking be.

Edit:
Oh! Didn’t realized Il Cervo is next for commentary, hell yeah! One of the better strange events that I personally think the amount of elusiveness is just right to make it interesting.

LOL. Forget about me. MC has been completely sex-obsessed for 54 days. Ami has been completely sex-obsessed for 54 days. Ayane has been completely sex-obsessed for 54 days. The problem isn't lack of sex. The problem is the world's shittiest story and most incompetent characters.
