SPOILERS FOR YURIโS ROUTE
So I just finished the Yuri route and it was so abrupt Iโm left confused. There are so many unanswered questions. What was up with Hanako and the soul reaper? How was she going to die if Yuri and Yuma didnโt break up? And then they continue dating and sheโs fine anyway? I donโt get it. How and why would she have died? And then Tina resolved herself to doโฆsomething and then we never saw her again! I know she went back to where she belongs but itโs never explained what that something is!
The first song is Bakemonogatari's 5th opening and the second is Shinsekai Yori's 2nd ending. I'm currently watching Bakemonogatari and thought the songs sounded kind of similar. I think it might just be the violin, but I would greatly appreciate if someone with more music knowledge checked it out.

I just recently finished playing this VN and I have to say it was really good for the most part. The comedy and drama were both usually pretty good. I even got close to tears at some points. All the characters were likeable in their own way (except Hanako...) Tinaโs route was the best by far. It definitely had the most interesting plot and the most well-executed drama. But the others werenโt half-bad either. Aside from Yuriโs, her route was complete garbage. Also Mioโs route got really bad near the end but everything before that was fine unlike Yuriโs which was a huge mess for practically the entire time.
I've run across the same issue in this game as I have in many before with the addition of forced H-scenes. Currently I have finished the Konami route and I'm assuming half way through the Yuri route. The Konami route was fine and to me at least the H content made sense. However after reaching that point in Yuri's route I'm left wondering why was that added? Shes nervous about holding hands and then a week later after dating theres an H-scene? Honestly the relationship did not reach that point yet and I feel like its randomly added in just for the sake of having it. This seems to be a common trend and it always ruins certain routes for me. Why not just have the route play out without any erotic content and then have a time jump or at the end or something to when it would make sense.
Basically thats my point of view and I was curious how others felt. Do you think every route needs H content? Or would you rather have it only when it makes sense to the story?
Hey Reddit, here you go:

Anyways this was a little project I threw together a long time ago just to practice some photoshop skills. Case design is in the format of Nintendo Switch. Not sure if its set up to be printable or not, but regardless felt like maybe someone could get something out of it rather than it sitting in a folder on my desktop.
Game title is Saku Saku: Love Blooms with the Cherry Blossoms by Palette, which can be purchased from steam here.
Just some comments on the overall design:
>!Not a huge fan on how plan the back turned out, but maybe someone can edit that if it bothers them too much. The QR code on back leads to the Denpasoft product page. Barcode is fake.Most of the graphics used are from the game itself or were taken from the Japanese website.!<
Credits go to Hopper for his Switch Case PSD with was modified to achieve my design. That PSD came be found here. Icons are from some minimalistic pack (Forgot the name, but its the first major on from a google search).
Link for imgur. Might upload the PSD file if I figure out how.
