Usually with games like this I write a first-person piece, make up some story, and call it a day. But this game genuinely put me off doing that. If I wrote it that way, I’d end up sounding like a rapist myself. That said, even though this one looks like plain nukige, it’s the same as that earlier title from the same label — “even a nukige can have something under the surface.” So let’s focus on what’s under the surface. Games rarely touch on this kind of criminal motive / psychology stuff. The protagonist is a guy living alone in the big city. He goes to school, works part-time, and supports himself. Now and then he tutors his distant relative’s younger cousin; at school he’s polished, polite, well-mannered — by any measure, a “fine young man of the new era.” Then one day his little sister from back home shows up. She says she’s planning to take the entrance exam for a school in his city and needs a place to stay over winter break, so she wants to crash at his place. The moment he hears this, he gets angry. Every trace of the “fine young man” evaporates. He even calls home and asks why the hell they had to send this burden his way. The same thought repeats in his head: “I hate my little sister more than anything!”
