For those who’ve never found a novel worth reading. A visual novel about disconnected youth drifting through the edges of society — an atmospheric journey wrapped in the quiet air of “those days that never quite happened.” Unlike typical visual novels, every scene is presented as a full illustration, with no background music — only ambient sounds and effects carry the story forward. The experience closes with an original ending theme, 'After School That Couldn’t Become a Constellation' , sung by 14 characters using Vocaloid technology. There are no branching routes — just a single linear story. Choices, where they appear, are light-hearted detours that don't affect the ending. You’re free to pause, revisit, or walk away. This is a story that respects your pace. I will send a bonus file to anyone who reviews. 🛠 Special Edition Bonus Content: 3 desktop wallpapers 100-image bonus CG collection MP3 + extras for the ending theme song 'After School That Couldn’t Become a Constellation' Note: Some bonus files are password-protected.
