One is an interesting VN. It was the first of its sub-genre of eroge/bishoujo games, nakige, yet it also remains to be a questionable experiment at the time despite being popular at the time. In fact, it was so popular that it was the main inspiration of so many notable scenario writers that they themselves spawned just as influential works. I'm talking about the likes of Kinoko Nasu and Ryukishi07. Yes, these guys.

I don't particularly like this game because Jun Maeda's routes suck big donkey testicles. Naoki Hisaki's routes, however, are some of the best the game had to offer. Misaki's route in particular being THE best in the game. Akane and Mio's route were also good, sure, but Misaki's was just on another level of good. It uses a slow type of melancholic storytelling that not even Jun Maeda uses(he's more of the in-your-face type of guy) in his writings and I find it very moving. The way how he uses the kana and kanji to describe simple movements/atmospheric beats, and the way how he uses silence to emphasize the melancholy and the tragedy. It's just on another level of good. No wonder like Maeda felt like his stuff isn't as good as Hisaya's. That guy can actually write good shit even if it's for an eroge.

Misaki's gimmick is that she is blind. That's it. But, what happens if you use it in the context of One and its Eternal World mechanic? You get one of the most heartbreaking endings to come out of the VN. When Kouhei finally disappears into the Eternal World, you're left in absolute silence(and in darkness to show off what she sees in her mind which is such a clever way of using the game engine) and the words of a girl who realized that the person she has loved and depended on no longer exists in the material world. That slow realization that he didn't respond back. That "Eh?", before dropping you into the ending. I didn't realize it at the time, but I was actually crying. That's all I felt during that time.

Oh, but don't worry he does come back briefly to say hi to Misaki in the epilogue so he's not gone forever. Thank me later.

Anyway, I attempted to match the mood that Misaki's route was based off on and I wanted to showcase off what it felt like to disappear off into the Eternal World in the user's, yes you, perspective. You'll be the one to see what it is to suddenly disappear from the world onto another world that probably doesn't even exist. This bot was carefully made to replicate that feeling.

Damn, I fucking cooked with this description!

Anyway, enjoy the bot lol. Leave comments of all kinds even if they are hate comments.
