I've been feeling super nostalgic with togainu's stage play going on right now and chiral's 20th anniversary. @suzuran777 has this amazing post about nitro chiral's april fools games through the years. The breakout game from 2015 mentioned there is actually preserved by @hibonbl-scans and still playable; post here. Which made me wonder whether I could do the same for the Shunga game from 2016; and I'm happy to share that I was able to retrieve the flash file through waybackmachine 🥳 you can download it here. I added a spoiler folder with the pngs if anyone only wants the art
To play the game, you need a flashplayer. I personally used flashpoint archive's flash-32. Drag the game to the flashplayer and if it doesn't automatically start, do a right click and press play. Enjoy!
THIS IS NOT AN ORIGINAL POST. Twitter user lily_hpmy recently combed the entire series--we're talking song lyrics, drama tracks, the anime, the movie, the manga, the live shows, the Spotify radio podcasts, the stageplays, and both video games--to discover the two things Hitoya can't stand. Sorry, did I say two? Make that one hundred forty-seven.
This is that list translated into English for ease of reading. All credit for the massive amount of work involved goes to lily_hpmy, who posts quite a lot of other funny Hypmic content. Please give them a follow! Also, please do not use this post as a jumping off point to harass them or overwhelm them with complex English-language comments. I do not know if they would be comfortable with a random surge of attention from non-Japanese accounts.
The author of this list categorized the list by subject matter (food and drinks, people, places, and miscellaneous) and expression used (can't stand, dislikes, rubs the wrong way, is inexcusable). Because I can't make a table on Tumblr, I've collapsed this into four lists ordered by expression used.
Items that appear more than once are bolded. Occasionally, Hitoya uses different wording to refer to the same thing. When the meanings are functionally identical, list items may appear to be featured twice. Other duplicate items contain footnotes if a meaningful (or just amusing) distinction exists.
I'm writing everything in fairly clinical tones, but Hitoya sounds annoyed as all get-out a good 50% of the time. Determining when to mentally insert the word "fucking" is an exercise left to the reader.
The 81 things Hitoya can't stand:

Watery coffee
Over-extracted coffee

[1] A common dish. Hitoya isn't being ridiculously specific, as the length of this line in translation might suggest.
[2] A more annoyed sounding version of the "people who don't listen" in the "dislike" list. Presumably, this one is directed at Kuukou.
[3] Said at a live show.
[4] Said with zero shred of self-awareness.
[5] Said during a Spotify radio podcast. I would assume, although I've not checked, he doesn't want to read a piece of scripted content on air and would rather speak for himself.
[6] This line is light on context, but as New Year's is Japan's largest holiday and celebrated with family, I assume he's referring to the annoying aspects of large family gatherings. Think "obnoxious Thanksgiving dinner" for a US analogy.
[7] From Harmonious Cooperation when Hitoya is upset that Kuukou noticed him being out of sorts.
21 years ago, I dreamed of being a mangaka.
13 years ago, I gave up being a mangaka.
11 years ago, I cried because work wasn’t going well.
10 years ago, the video I uploaded got popular.
9 years ago, I started drawing manga again.
8 years ago, I started Senyuu.
5 years ago, it became an anime.
3 years ago, my child was born.
Yesterday, my child fell asleep holding a stuffed animal from my very own work.
Everyone, thank you so much.
A tweet that Haruhara made a couple days ago and seems to have resonated with a lot of people. I’m sure it was for Senyuu’s anniversary.
I intended it to be creepy, but it came out somewhat dreamy instead. This is kind of a late post too. Thanks to my failed hard drive.

Itaru: GG. Sorry, I’m a bit late.
Sakuya: Good work, Itaru-san!
Tsuzuru: Gaming?
Chikage: When is he not gaming?
Citron: Gaming is his phony option.
Masumi: Only.
Itaru: Wow, what’s with the me shade, lmao. But yeah, I was gaming.
Itaru: She’s my one and only babygirl, so— Oh, why don’t we all play together next time? Like a party game, or something.
Masumi: Pass.
Chikage: If I feel like it.
Citron: Sakuya and I will always do things together! And Tsuzuru too!
Tsuzuru: Why am I just the bonus…
Sakuya: Umm, if you don’t mind me being bad, then I’m down anytime…!
Itaru: Ahaha, thanks.
Itaru: …By the way, what about President-san? We’re supposed to have one of our regular meetings instead of a lesson today, right?
Sakuya: It seems like FUYNEE’s meeting is running a bit over time, so the president and Isuke-san are gonna be a bit late.
Chikage: It seems like they’re busier than ever.
Masumi: I heard that since they released their new song, the number of offers they’re getting has gone through the roof, not just for the individual members, but for the group as a whole.
Sakuya: Their performance at the sports challenge the other day was fantastic!
Tsuzuru: Even though each of them brought their own unique personalities to the performance, they were all perfectly in sync, and both the atmosphere and the harmony were great.
Itaru: Yeah, I watched it a bit later. It was beautiful. I get why everyone was talking about Hisoka and Homare’s performance now. It was really moving.
Citron: It is going to be our turn next. I am eggcited!
Sakuya: I can’t wait, but I’m also a little nervous.
Chikage: I wonder what our assignment will be.
Citron: Perhaps it will be that we must all work together to create a legendary multi-course meal!
Tsuzuru: Yeah, I don’t think so.
Masumi: No matter what it is, I’ll give it my all on any assignments she gives me.
Itaru: Well, as long as it sounds easy, it’s fine by me.
I was wondering if you knew in which FP drama track does Gentaro pretend to be Dice's wife ??? If it even is in a drama track at all haha~ I just vividly remembered the scene from the manga and I NEED to hear Saito Soma voice acting that part (if it's actually a thing)
HAVE A GREAT DAYYYYY !!!
Dice's wife...
I'm racking my brains, and I can't think of any instances where he outright calls himself Dice's wife.
He jokes about being reincarnated lovers who could not be wedded in Know Your Enemy side FP vs M.
He jokingly flirts with Dice as a vaguely courtesan-y, old-fashioned female figure in Me Against the World.
He also pretends to be a humble flower maker who, due to the Dice-like baby he's carrying, presumably copulated with someone equally Dice-like at one point in the background of this manga oneshot, but I'm not sure if that was something the manga artist added herself or if there was recently was some precedent in its corresponding drama track. That drama track is one of the bonuses that came from buying a limited-edition physical copy of the manga (which I never do, so I generally don't listen to them). Looking at the wiki's list of tracks, I think it's Side F.P & M Bonus Drama Track 2...? I do not know where you would find this one/a translation for this one, as even I'm having some trouble turning anything up.
Honestly, I'm laughing at this last image because he looks like one an ad for one of those very shitty free-to-play mobile games about being a woman with two kids escaping from absurd levels of poverty. Gossip Harbor-ass Gentarou.
