Many a stuff has been fixed or added this time around:

• The biggest mission so far awaits at the Tanomo village, north of Akita! A province held hostage by a well-coordinated force of brigands, mages, and god-knows-what-else! It's up to you to find out the cause behind the chaos and restore peace to the fertile land!

• More choices, especially those that concern morals, now affect the opinion of the party members of you.

• Party interactions have been added after the fight with the Yakou at the Abandoned Mine, with references to japanese mythology.

• Added a moment in the liquor store if you have Kokonoe with you.

• Stones, Shurikens and throwable spears have been nerfed - enemies can now dodge them.

• Kaga now has a portrait in battle!

• Forgery can now be used to make an Introduction Letter which will let you bypass some guards in Shinen and Tanomo village!

• Added a funny interaction with the viper in Asamimura if you have silly mode on.

• Destructible pots with goodies have been added to encourage exploration and vandalism! Heeyah!

• Red Leaves Cut and Precision Strike are now both Certain Hit, which means they'll never miss!

• Mount Fuji on the world map has been replaced with a better-looking sprite.

• Nagamaki had its' icon changed to fit more with how it's historically depicted.

• Heavy Arrows now properly scale with Attack.

• Spiked Boots have been buffed as now they provide resistance to being Pulled, too.

• Added a mini-quest for Okina in Akita, as well as a funny interaction in the hut near him.

• Fujio now sells Shikigami - no, not the JJK kind, put the Mahoraga sign away - though no less powerful!

• Added a moment with Jun at the Akita dojo.

• Swimming no longer blacks out your screen.

• Finishing the Shinen mission now doesn't turn off your followers' visibility.

• Added more places where you can fish.

• Qing Lacquerware was renamed into Ming Laquerware since the Qing dynasty only rose to power in 1636 and the game takes place in 1592-1600.

• Takehaya now properly returns to your party after a split-up.

• Otake now properly teaches Rhetoric after you finish his quest.

• Ressurection is no longer in the game, which means is anyone dies, it's for real. This is because the Ressurrection common event, which I spent a lot of time on and polished to infinity, is simply gone. I have no idea why. If there's anything I actually hate in the world it's doing the stuff I already made before. It was a very complex system and it was probably deleted by RMaker itself due to exceeding it's limitations. I will not bring Ressurrection back. The only alternative there is to is ithe Plume of the Celestial Crane which got reworked into actually bringing back one dead person to life, but you only get 1 of it.

The next update will be smaller so enjoy what you got so far - I know that most people don't even play this and those that do didn't even get out of Akita but does it matter, really? I'm enthralled with the process of creating this game so the result matters little - though it would be nice to see some occasional activity.
