"It's like a thread, tangling, linking us to something. Until slowly we are completely bound."

Part 1 Yashiro: (Work ended so I am walking a little faster towards the front of the station) (Ah, there he is!) (I can easily find from a distance the person I'm going to meet with)

Yashiro: My apologies. Thank you for waiting.

Kyoya: Not at all. You didn't make me wait. It's still earlier than our appointed time to meet. I have just arrived too

Yashiro: (Even though we're just exchanging pleasantries, I feel like the addition of that gentlemanly smile makes it more classy)

Kyoya: But as I expected...

Yashiro: As expected?

Kyoya: I thought Yashiro-san would be the type to come early so as not to keep the other party waiting, so I was on standby And as a result of that, the timing of us was perfect

Yashiro: (Ahh, I can't compete with this level of intelligence. No, it's more like what am I competing against?) (But as expected, I didn't want to keep him waiting today) (I wonder why in the first place am I meeting with Shido-san)

(Just the other day, it was the day when Kiho-san and Riku-san went to the cafe as customers) Yashiro: Great job today. Please enjoy your stay. Kiho: Thanks Riku: That's right. Oh, should I invite Ito too? Kiho: Ohh, that would be nice Yashiro: ? Riku: Kyoya's birthday is coming soon so the 3 of us are going to drink together as a celebration. So if you don't mind, how about you come along, Ito? Yashiro: Wouldn't I be bothering if I join a celebration by the Negotiation Dept? Riku: What are you talking about? It's better to have a different face than usual, it has a special feeling to it, doesn't it? Kiho: I wish we can deepen our friendship so it's okay to just be casual Yashiro: (So this is the day of the drinking party that I decided to participate in. In other words, today is Shido-san's birthday. But right now, it's only me and Shido-san here) Shido: Then, what should we do now? Yashiro: That's right.... Yashito: (From both messages I received, the other two's arrival will be delayed due to some urgent matters) Shido: It looks like there will be some time until everyone is here. Is it a little long for tea? However, once we go separate ways, then we have to get together again. Yashiro: It will make you feel in a hurry, right? Shido: Rather, it would be a waste. After all, it's the time I can spend with Yashiro-san Yashiro: !

---

Part 2 Yashiro: .... I'm indebted.* (an expression used to mean "I'm happy, embarrassed, or sorry'' when a superior shows kindness to you.) Shido: Ah, sorry. I don't mean it in a weird way. But this was a cunning way of saying it By the way, is there anything you want to do? Yashiro: (Should I ask the main character for today, Shido-san, what his wishes are instead? No, I am already way behind. It would be better to make some suggestions so it wouldn't bother Shido-san Oh that reminds me) Shido: Huh, this is surprising Yashiro: (What I suggested is the illumination event at the park) Yashiro: This event is being held for a limited time. I remembered on the internet that a lot of people were saying "The plants in the park were lit up and it was so beautiful." I think it would be a good idea to take a walk in terms of the schedule... There are a lot of benches so if you are tired of walking, you can take a rest easily. Luckily, the weather is nice today Shido: It would definitely be perfect for a walk Yashiro: (Shido-san might be saying that but as expected, the park may have been too popular I should have probably come up with a stylish hideaway spot like a rooftop garden somewhere...) Shido: Thank you for taking me to this wonderful place Yashiro: Eh? Shido: Even though it was so sudden, I'm happy that you thought about everything before making your choice. Things like whether it's a place I'd like, or whether it's an environment that's easy for me to rest in. Yashiro: ..... Ah, that's right but I don't think I was able to consider everything. Shido: The illuminations here and there are so beautiful that it makes me want to walk around the park and enjoy them. Usually, I would never visit a place like this by myself, but it's nice. It's refreshing. Yashiro: (I can't shake the feeling of anxiety though. Still, now that I've gotten to know Shido-san a little, I'm sure those words aren't lies Ahh, I'm glad. I did think he would really like it) Shido: This one. Whose design is it? You can see different personalities, I don't think it's just one person's work Yashiro: I think I saw on the internet that it was produced by a team of up-and-coming artists Shido: I knew it Yashiro: (Shido-san's eyes were shining brightly because of the illuminations He told me that it wasn't just because of the lighting, but that from the bottom of his heart, he was enjoying this space.)

--- Part 3 Riku: So the two of you went for a walk in the park? Shido: Yes, it was surrounded by fantastic art so I had an interesting experience Riku: Hmm is that so Kiho: Come on, Riku. Don't be jealous Riku: But, well, it was a meaningful time for Kyoya. You can tell just by looking at his face Kiho: We should be grateful to Ito for thinking up of something during that sudden situation Weren't you nervous about suddenly having to spend time alone with Kyoya-kun? Riku: Where shall I take him? What should I say? Is this too commonplace? Am I boring him? Something like that. I am sure your mind was in a frenzy Yashiro: You hit the mark Kiho: This is the first time I've seen someone declare it on their own Yashiro: I'd be lying if I said I wasn't confused at all, but I really did have a lot of fun too. You don't need to worry about it, really. Shido: I am relieved that you said that Yashiro-san, thank you again for the special time It was a fun surprise. For me, today, that time was my birthday present Yashiro: Wait, that's....Rather it was me who was having more fun But if that's what Shido-san feels then I am happy Riku: What are you two doing already concluding on your own Kiho: To make our presence known, I guess we'll give you the gift we originally planned Today is a drinking party that serves as a celebration. Please enjoy as much of Kyoya-kun's favorite food as you like. Shido: I will take your word for it. Thank you for the meal Riku: Then, I would like to make a toast. Hold your glass. Once again... Kiho: I hope this year will be a wonderful one for Kyoya-kun Everyone: Cheers Yashiro: Shido-san, happy birthday Shido: Thank you I'm blessed with wonderful people, I am a happy man Yashiro: (Shido-san's eyes as he smiles, were as bright as the time I saw them at the park)

Break My Case, new joseimuke game from coly

Official site

Coly (Mahoyaku, Stand My Heroes, and the now canceled &0) have announced a new game called Break My Case. More info will likely be released at this year's AGF. Preregistration is currently open.

The overall plot seems to be about a hidden detective/fixer agency that solves problems. Character designer is Yukihiro Utako who worked on B-PROJECT, and there's quite the star-studded cast of VAs: I saw Ono Yuki, Fukuyama Jun, Kobayashi Yusuke, and Furukawa Makoto while skimming the character pages.

And the characters do look really neat:
