"Behold, the tale of the demon's beloved."
The Opposition of Ijuuin Takako is the third chronological, yet first to be released, installment of the Gokan Series Project. It will be a kinetic visual novel that will be free to play (as of all the games in the Gokan Series Project and out of it), with the combined efforts of me and a friend.
BACKGROUND:
17-year-old Ijuuin Takako is adjusting to a peaceful life in the quiet town of Nakahashi, effectively abandoning her former lavish lifestyle in Fuwata City in favour of her father's business trips abroad and her younger brother's frail health. Having been pestered for the longest time by Yasunori Takahiko, the handsomest and most talented student in her school, it has come to the point until she can barely take any more of his advances despite her strongest rejections. While hearing a story about a wish-granting being who grants wishes for an exchange, Takako meets the grand-daughter of her town's convenience store owner, and strikes an unlikely friendship with her.
However, upon having her wish granted, Takako finds it odd that she had never come across the wish-granting being in the first place, and one fine morning, she decides to visit old man Ohtori's grand-daughter, since she was the first person she had ever told her spur-of-the-moment wish to.
That is, until she realizes that old man Ohtori never had a grand-daughter in the first place.

CHARACTERS:
IJUUIN TAKAKO
'We'll have to think in a different perspective. Why don't we try thinking as to what will make them squirm?'
The 17-year-old protagonist, Takako is also a competition pianist who seems to have accepted the many changes in her life, even going so far as to acquiesce to having her life being tailored by her family. She is engaged to be married to a wealthy family friend who is six years older than her, but she will only marry after she has come of age. Despite her rather mild-looking nature, she does have a shockingly sharp tongue at times, and an even more scandalous habit of reading questionable material during her free time. Due to her wish, she is able to be partially deaf to Takahiko's words, literally.
OHTORI FUYUKA?
'Attempting to outsmart me is like trying to count the stars in the sky. It's completely impossible.'
The 15-year-old grand-daughter of old man Ohtori, who runs the town's only convenience store. She claims to be much older than she is, with a plethora of knowledge that can come across as confusing to most people. Not much is known about her, except for the fact that she has gone to stay with her grandfather because of her very busy parents, and that she has a penchant for displaying her superiority over others. Her hair is dyed pink.
YASUNORI TAKAHIKO
'We can always compete next time. I hope that you won't give up.'
Popular, talented, kind-hearted and generally extremely good in whatever he does, Takahiko is the privileged heir of the Yasunori family, who runs a large conglomerate. Having fallen for Takako, he goes out of his way to win her heart, but even with all his good qualities and Takako's rejections, he is determined to be the best he can for the girl he loves and wishes to protect.
FEATURES:
a) For one, the visual novel is completely free! It will have one sexual scene, but it will only be a written one.
b) The novel is a kinetic one, and will contain a lot of text. It explores a varied set of relationships, as well as a few instances of horror and the supernatural.
c) I sure hope that this ends up being a nakige....

NOTES:
The visual novel is far from complete, but I would like to know your opinions regarding the premise of the game. Which character would you like to know about more? Which genres should be more prominent, the horror, or the silent supernatural? Any suggestions?
