WILL IT CHANGE, OR WILL IT END?
Everyone wants answers.
Who is to blame, and what went wrong?
And what is to be punished?
In order to keep the shape of this world, things are divided into black and white.
Those who look between the black and white will only continue to suffer.
Everyone should know it in their hearts.

White and black. Front and back. Light and shadow.
Good news, bad news.
And, if it will change or if it will end.

I’m so excited!
SAME! It feels like ages but it’s finally happening!
Whoohoo!! That’s great news <333 Now all I have left to do is… actually play the first one (oh gosh I'm a fake otoge fan ^^;;).
More seriously though, my heart goes out to all of you out there who've played the first game already and campaigned so hard for the second one to be localized. I've been reading lovely posts fretting about the LIs (Shu simps especially ^^) and loving the game's atmosphere and making memes and expressing expectations about Season 2 for a good long while now, and honestly the fan culture around BUSTAFELLOWS is one of my favourites to see in action. It fills me with serotonin every time to see what pple create around the game even if I don't have the context yet, and honestly, to any fan who reads this (including you yourself!): thank you for your service. :))
(And now I'm a little less anxious about the idea of getting into S1 only to blast through it and then be left wondering if we'll ever have a chance of seeing new content in the West- which was my main reason for keeeping it in the backlog till now 😀 So yeah, pretty hyped, even if I it hardly compares to the level of enthusiasm its actual fans feel right now ^^)
YOU HAVE TO PLAY BUSTAFELLOWS! It’s a bit messy in places, but SO good! I’m surprised you HAVEN’T played it yet!
