Before Story-放課後の花束-(早咲きのくろゆり前日譚漫画)
STORY-introduction-
"Maybe that was the early-blooming black lily's curse..."
Eighteen years have passed since the containment of the threatening virus CLII, which decimated over half of the minors in the population.
Although people have returned to their normal lives, a mark was left on society.
Hana Sasamori is a third-year student at the Naeshiro Private High School in Sapporo.
She is a rather quiet girl, but inside, she feels restless.
Just before graduation, Hana finds herself reliving the same day over and over.
"That's right... I'm in love with her."
More than anything, Hana wishes for the happiness of Itsuki, who came to her help in the past.
There is little she wouldn't do for her.
Hana thinks...
"She probably doesn't want me to hold onto such a feeling..."
Being an adolescent, she thought it was just a phase that deserved to be suppressed.
Nevertheless, together with that realization came a curse.
This is a story of love and malediction, of persistence and sorrow, a story set in the meandering space between two people looking for each other.
"Let's write all that is left undone. On the word cards!"
These are the words that Itsuki, having nothing to do until graduation, suddenly uttered.
I thought that all that was left undone was spending time together.
But when I went home, I wondered if we would still be able to do that past the graduation.
Perhaps it would all come to an end.
Either way, there was no sense in going to the graduation ceremony in such a state of mind.
Not until I saw the blooming of the black lily...
CONCEPT
[Conflict x Adolescence] A story about "liking" and "cursing" in a world where girls are afraid to even say they like each other.
This work is just a story about a girl who loves a girl.
However, a pure love triangle with a boy is born in this story, which vividly depicts the subtleties of the conflicted and turbulent adolescent mind.
It speaks to the sense of entrapment that you feel even when you are not being blamed by anyone. A single word can destroy your relationships and memories.
This is a story of sweet sorrow love and a curse that makes you want to cheer for the girl.
[Tragedy x Interrupt] Overcoming the "tragedy" of March by "interrupting the choices".
The main character "Hana Sasamori" is caught in a loop with a tragic ending in each chapter.
Unlike ordinary games, this title does not force you to make choices!
To escape the tragedy, you must "interrupt choices and change your fate" during specific conversations through your intervening will.
[Guess x Type] "Guess" and "type" to connect to a new fate.
Next, having interrupted the choice, you must actually enter an alternate "word" by typing it into the prompt.
By "guessing" correctly and inputting a word that changes their fate in the story, you may avoid tragedy and create a new fate.
You will surely want to use the above features once you bear witness Hana's single-mindedness.
You can intervene in the yuri and lead both girls to happiness by using your words to bring them together.
*To clarify the concept, this work incorporates elements of a pure and adolescent love triangle.
However, there is no intention or malice on the part of a boy to "interfere" with the relationship between two girls.
(For details, please refer to the "Regarding the Yuri Nature of the Game" section listed further down.)
CHARACTER
Hana Sasamori
Hana Sasamori is the game's main character and relies on the player's decisions.
Although she may appear calm and reserved, her inner self is rather tempestuous.
She has a naïve side to her, but is always understanding and respectful to others.
That being said, she doesn't usually assert her opinion, and can easily get flustered.
For this reason, she tends to show unexpected reactions, but this aspect of her personality is also appreciated by Itsuki and Aoi.
Having a sense of gratitude toward Itsuki for her help during junior high school, she is determined to return the favor somehow.
Hana hoped that her lonesomeness would fade away in the time before graduation, but that was not withstanding a tragic event that would befall her dearest Itsuki.
Itsuki Ōmiya
Itsuki is a former member of the track team who can get along with anyone, with a bubbly and slightly boyish temperament.
In the span of a minute, she can show a wide variety of emotions, from smiling to pouting, laughing to crying.
Hana finds these mood changes enticing.
Itsuki had to retire early from the track team.
She asked Hana for help with her studies, and it was decided that they would go to the same university.
However, as graduation drew near, a secret she had been keeping from everyone grew heavier on her mind.
Then one day, she exclaimed, "Let's write all that is left undone. On the word cards!" She had brought a set of such cards with her.
It always seemed as if nothing could alter her joviality.
Aoi Nishiki
Cool-headed and serene, she spends much of her time with Hana and Itsuki.
She often finds herself acting as a coordinator between them, as Hana is so indecisive, and Itsuki so exuberant.
This role gives her an adult air, yet she enjoys poking fun at others, especially Hana and Itsuki whose exchanges never fail to amuse her.
A shark movie freak, she gets inexplicably excited about this movie genre.
She lives next door to Ai Isshiki, with whom she has had a sisterly relationship since they were kids.
Ai Isshiki
A talkative and friendly young girl.
She has been chatty and restless since she was a kid, to the point of making those around her uneasy.
With her emotions on full display, people can't help but grow fond of her transparent way of being.
As an only child, she became close to her neighbor and childhood friend Aoi, viewing her as an older sister.
However, a certain incident created some distance between them.
Natsu Kakizaki
Natsu is impressionable and tends to get carried away, but always means well.
A classmate of Hana and Itsuki, he likes to join their conversations.
Although he may put on airs at times, it tends to backfire and leave him temporarily despondent.
His classmates love him for this and other reasons.
Showing no interest in girls, he usually hangs out with Shū, despite the latter making regular fun of him.
Natsu has been seen in the infirmary many times recently, and seems troubled by something.
Shū Sakurai
Giving off a calm and collected impression, he listens to himself and just goes with the flow.
A classmate of Hana and Itsuki, he occasionally slips into their conversations, only to confuse them.
Often late, he has to be woken up by Natsu every morning.
No matter how much he values his time alone, Natsu invariably catches up to him from behind, resulting in long-winded exchanges.
This is their way of getting along.
Shū is hard to grasp, sometimes making right-on remarks, sometimes making perplexing jokes.
Maya Shōbugawa
A broad-minded, motherly woman, she is Hana's aunt, as the younger sister of Hana's deceased mother.
She is always willing to lend an ear to Hana's troubles and give her advice.
By doing so, she acts as a precious guide and comforting figure to her niece.
Rin Igarashi
A health teacher at Naeshiro High School, to which Hana and her friends go.
Impassive, her turns of phrase are rather straight and dry, yet she gladly listens to students, such as Natsu, when they are in any kind of trouble.
At times, her sharp intuition lets her sense what Hana and Itsuki are hiding.
She is greatly involved in providing instruction to trainee teachers.
Tsubomi Sasamori
She is now temporarily back at her parents' house (Hana's house) for childbirth.
A calmer person than Hana, she often makes vapid comments naturally.
However, she also has a big sisterly side to her and sometimes guides Hana when she is lost.
After her mother passed away, she looked after Hana and watched out for her.
Hana and Tsubomi's father.
He used to be a rough and careless man, but one day he turned into a constant worrier.
Hana is confused by his persistent worrying, but accepts it as his father's way of being kind.
Iku Sasamori
Miki Sasamori
Hana's mother.
Already deceased.
She often spent time at the local cafe before she passed away.
???
A girl who is strict with herself and others.
She didn't know about love yet, until that day…

Regarding the Yuri Nature of the Game
As the developer of this yuri work in a world where there are both boys and girls, my desire is to show Hana Sasamori's unsettled conflicts and decisions that happen in that setting, and to create a work that will move players' emotions.
Each chapter of this work has a tragic ending, and the cycle of the game is to avoid it through gameplay loops.
In some tragic endings, a love triangle may end badly after various speculations.
Hana can avoid that tragic ending as described above.
"However, she struggles with the question of whether Hana's avoidance of this will lead to ""happiness for the girl she loves"" or whether she should hide her actions that arise from that love....
You can use the system to push Hana to do what is necesary, and connect her to a happy ending."
In other words, the intent of this work is to allow the player to direct and construct Hana's sentiments, and is not intended to represent a distasteful situation.
Crowdfunding
We are crowdfunding on Kickstarter in winter 2025.
