    Slice of life and being story driven are not mutually exclusive.  To an extent you can call grisaille slice of life as well. 

    Zeria commented on this on twitter, and I agree, we as a community really need to find a less broad descriptor than "Slice-Of-Life" to describe shit. Because using it ends up bunching together school-girl comedies and emotional dramas under the same umbrella.

    Rika's route also works in building the mystery the same way, but she is shit and the main character act like shit during her route, so starting with this route might make you think the whole VN is shit.

    I notice a lot of people who've read Euphoria hate Rika. Why is that, exactly?

    I imagine they've saved those mostly for the daily deals. Putting nukige or some old moege no one cares about on those would be a bit anticlimactic. :>

    Fair point. Those it's a bit odd they put the second half of Ef on sale and not the first.

  4. Spoiler

    "Up for debate if she died"? Both endings 2 and 3 make it pretty clear she died, especially in Ending 3 which explicitly describes her not moving. Saya isn't immortal, it's made very clear her survival skills is because her body is able to shrink and expand at will (which Dr Tanbo negated by freezing her). Literally the only ending she survives in would be Ending 1, and that would be an especially dumb ending to continue from  because that basically stops the plot halfway in.

    Also, someone on Discord suggested the idea of the continuation being Demonbane fighting Saya, and that is too amusing an idea not to mention here.

    Eh.... I loved Song of Saya AS a Visual Novel. Making it into a novel is pointless, plus urobuchi isn’t writing it.... <_<

     

    What's even the point of writing a continuation anyway? Literally the entire story was resolved by the time it was finished, and it would require some insane plot gymnastics to continue. Hell, that's what I consider one of its major strengths, despite the short length, the whole work feels fully cohesive and natural.

    Eeeeh... definitely not interested in this.

    *Looks at the other things Ootsuki Suzuki wrote*

    Wow, now I'm even less interested, never thought it was possible!

    Why Ootsuki was picked I have no clue.
