I finally caught up with the thread. You guys are fire when it comes to keeping the discussions going and posting funny troll posts and KK renders.

Especially since I actually did not expect this update to be really that remarkable. Given that this was to be mostly about the invite over events of several girls, which initially gave me "filler" update vibes, it turned out to be quite diverse and weirdly wholesome a lot of the time.

Anyways, here's my two cents:

Some top notch writing in this update. I am very satisfied. Hope the trend continues in the next one.

Well, remember that, per TSS II and further, he can slip and be slipped into other time(line)s (not sure about calling them those, but it kinda fits for now). I guess his memories of Times New Roman (because it's been implied that he DOES remember some stuff from the resets and other events where he's not physically present) caused the slip.

I pointed out the Ami thing some pages back, and yeah this basically confirms it in its totality as far as I'm concerned.

I am also unsure how to interperet the Chika thing fully, it's clear that reality bends a LOT in those scenes (no shit sherlock, I know). But the way she also suddenly gets switched out with a wide eyed version (reminiscent of the ami angel thing from an earlier reset puzzle) and talks in a totally different manner kind of makes me think she wasnt gangbanged by eldritch beings.

It's like they didn't hear what they expected to from her and decided to try and make it the way they wanted.
Perhaps they interpereted her actions with Rin as her being fully lost and open to spreading around, only to find out she was fiercely loyal instead.

A stark contrast to how her mental issues are currently working in the "normal" world. Maybe its just cope, but to me the event seems to be making commentary at her declining mental state.

Going along this the thing about Chika, we also see Chinami in the event. Does that me she was also subject to 19 years of that? I don’t think so, because that wasn’t our Chinami, in my opinion, as she acted nothing like the one we know. It seems to me the entire thing is more metaphysical than materially physical, like a dream that feels like years pass, but in reality only a few minutes actually pass.

Dreams are weird like that, and given the gods ability to manipulate minds and experiences to make you believe one thing or another, I highly doubt it was literal.

Now, that does NOT mean Chika won’t think it was real or literal, especially given her lack of knowledge about the world around her, so I wonder if she’ll remember it, and if she does, will SHE think it was real or not?

As you said, I think it'll wholly depend on whether she thinks it's real or, at the very least, a dream about how things should be. Let's face it, as early as TSS III we are shown that the gods have no other power than the ones their believers and victims give them (and oh dear, isn't that an interesting analogy considering the things Pegasus talks about in there and in the critically acclaimed event Ad Infinitum?). As you said, they probably thought Chika would be open to a little bit of tro-I mean, mind molding. But she started flaking when Chinami was shown. Either the wide-eyes thing means that her core was successfully changed, or she resisted and they showed her what should've happened in their vision so she deludes herself into thinking it was real.

At this point, I don’t think we’ve see any scenes where the consequences of the TSS events have been discussed or really addressed, right? I suppose we’ll have to wait until it’s really talked about in a meaningful scene to understand more about the implications on the actual characters themselves, and how they view what happened (assuming they remember it correctly).

That being said, I'm much more interested in the purpose of the TSSs. Chika's was the fifth, and hers was clearly meant to salvage her back, whereas the others didn't have that much of a clearcut reason behind it. Is this to complete them? Is it to test them to see if they're complete and ready to leave?

AmIOkay also said something about

Which could refer to a number of things. Maybe we get 9 TSSs? It's yet another possibility for what she said alongside all the other ones.

Edit: And also, who's next? Noriko -> Futaba -> Sana -> Makoto -> Chika.

Watching the superbowl, I feel a bit like the Sensei from the alternative timeline in which he watches football with Karin.
And I'm not even into the sport, just might as well since I'm not yet sleepy.

That's fair. As you said, the important thing is why they are made to slip and experience that, what they are supposed to take from that.
As for Chika, I think it's quite possible that it's meant to make her hyperaware of Chinami and her being in danger with a predator in close proximity. The monster being the predator (which Chika does not recognize as Akira) who Chinami is overly friendly with, which means it's Chika's responsibility to protect her.
Why it's implied that she would need to become a whore to protect her and what this would allude to or supposed to lead her to - no idea right now.

My guess is Ayane or Yumi. They are part of the RAS and probably important to the gods. Otherwise Sara maybe, as the first adult and someone who apparently already had contact with them in the past.

I wasn’t trying to say it was literally a dream, but merely that what constitutes physical and metaphysical should be considered. And personally, I do t feel the need for cope with Chika; it didn’t really upset me because I don’t care for her character much recently. I’m not entirely convinced they are slipping like Sensei slips, either.

As for the end of the scene, we see her back looking older, but we see Chinami looking…different too. Is it literal? I’m not so sure, and I don’t think our good bud wires is gonna be able to fix that shit if it is real. Unless our Chika is now in a different reality after those events, where she’s been gangbanged and Chinami is a manakin lol. Who knows?. The drip feed of explanation in this game is minuscule, man.

Whatever the case, we don’t have answers yet. And as for who’s next, I could have sworn someone posted a preview showing Yumi?

That could be in me remembering wrong, though.

I guess something like become hypersexual (holy shit, hypercube???) so the predator gets tired not of you but with you and doesn't touch Chinami. Either that, or maybe the gods are trying to cultivate vessels and Sensei stealing what isn't his from them disqualifies them from that.

I think that was my fake screenshot when alluding to Sel monkeypawing Yumi events.
