feotakahariIn this visual novel, one of the characters is portrayed as kind, selfless, and constantly pushing herself to help others even when she really ought to sit back and relax for a while. Her faults are played for comedy, and it’s clear the MC loves her like a mother. This all leads up to a scene where she sacrifices her life to save the MC.
And then, after she’s dead, we learn she’s responsible for multiple murders.
One thing I will give credit for: the MC is confused and shocked and can’t really process this, and I am confused and shocked and can’t really process this. So during that whole time the game was joking about her lack of cooking skills and her tendency to nag, she was arranging multiple murders? When she nearly fell off a chair while trying to hang up a decoration, was she thinking about who needed to die next? And I know that in real life, people do horrible things and you don’t understand why, but in fiction, I feel like I deserve some answers about who this person really was and why she would do this.
