Update: I've finished the first two scripts in Rui route (about 700 lines and covers her first hypnosis scene.) If anyone notices mistakes or wants to give feedback let me know. I probably won't be able to maintain this pace once I go back to college but I'll try to be consistent and work on it for at least half an hour or so a day. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1a3irdhvHpJbu75BD3EnkwRYXq03jetV1/view?usp=sharing

You're amazing!! That worked perfectly, the game is running through VNR and has no decryption problems, it's funny how despite my ability to read Japanese, when playing a Japanese game there are so many other barriers than that of the language difference. Hope you have a great 2023.

Tick "Fake system UI language", save and launch the with Locale Emulator

Since you mentioned it like that, I suppose it make sense to a degree here so it's quite interesting on it's own. In this case, then hopefully people who read this in the future would find a way to cast away the prejudice when they play Yui's route later, even though it may be quite hard for them to do so.

I did see at least one of those reviews, and I can understand why someone would feel that way based on Yui's character in both the common route and Hayami's arc. But one of the themes of H2O is really about looking past our prejudices and finding ways to coexist, and maybe even make some friends along the way. Friendship is such a strong backdrop to the entire story, so it was actually in Hayami's route that I really came to initially like and then love Yui's character compared to the others. She definitely deserves the route she got in Root after and another.
