*** As to why they can date in Y4, well, Y5 is getting kinda bloated with so many TLSQs, it seems to make sense why they shoved some of the romance to Y4 to make room, even if it makes more sense for all the romance to happen Y5. Romance is a big money-maker for this game (if the ads are anything to go by), which is why they repeated the Valentine's event ''twice''. TL;DR, it's GameplayAndStorySegregation.

** GameplayAndStorySegregation. The game was made so that a player can succeed at tasks in whatever order in whatever House they want. Which means, in some cases, there are ''two'' male Gryffindor Prefects (MC and Charlie) starting the fifth year, and a player in Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, or Ravenclaw can win the House Cup even if, canonically, it was Slytherin that won. So no, it's not a retcon, its a gameplay mechanic that doesn't actually add to the story, and in some cases outright ignore it.

* Why can MC date Merula in Y4 and Y5? Especially in Year 4 when she still ''really hates'' MC? Why can MC take her out on a date and to the ball when her hatred in Y4 isn't her being a "{{tsundere}}", but legitimate? Why would she say yes? Why would she want to in Y5, either, considering she hates MC for being Rakepick's favourite? The only time it makes sense that Merula would ''want'' to date MC is starting in Y6, mayb elate Y5, when she starts being actually tsundere ''outside'' the dating events. Why, realistically, would MC want to date Merula when they're so antagonistic towards each other for the first 5 years at school (outside of dialogue referencing them dating)? Ignoring how players are attracted to her "tsundere" attitude, MC is clearly not outside the events themselves. Maingame and other event dialogue that refers to them dating is unnatural to the flow of other conversations where they're snipping at each other constantly, to the point that any dialogue about MC and Merula dating is ''OOC'' for both of them.

Datamining also reveals exclusive dating only occurs in Y6/Y7, meaning that they could have repaired their relationship by the end of Year 6 (when their friendship was somewhat repaired ''again'') but then stopped again in Y7. Basically, if you look through the lens of them being on an on-and-off-again relationship ''only'' through Y5-Y7, it makes a lot more sense.

Having played through the whole game exclusively in a Merula romance, their relationship is referenced in Y6 in small instances, where it seems to imply that they haven't really dated in a while (maybe they're on a 'break')? As no romance events happen in Y6 or Y7 (at the moment anyway) and the romance meter is stuck on 5 (as of writing), it's not far fetched to think that they put their relationship 'on hold' because of the main plot shenanigans (Merula regressing to her old characterization because of trauma in Y6 and her joining 'R' in Y7). Datamining also reveals exclusive dating only occurs in Y6/Y7, meaning that they could have repaired their relationship by the end of Year 6 (when their friendship was somewhat repaired ''again'') but then stopped again in Y7. Basically, if you look through the lens of them being on an on-and-off-again relationship ''only'' through Y5-Y7, it makes a lot more sense.

* Why can MC date Merula in Y4 and Y5? Especially in Year 4 when she still ''really hates'' MC? Why can MC take her out on a date and to the ball when her hatred in Y4 isn't her being a "{{tsundere}}", but legitimate? Why would she say yes? Why would she want to in Y5, either, considering she hates MC for being Rakepick's favourite? The only time it makes sense that Merula would ''want'' to date MC is starting in Y6, mayb elate Y5, when she starts being actually tsundere ''outside'' the dating events. Why, realistically, would MC want to date Merula when they're so antagonistic towards each other for the first 5 years at school (outside of dialogue referencing them dating)? Ignoring how players are attracted to her "tsundere" attitude, MC is clearly not outside the events themselves. Maingame and other event dialogue that refers to them dating is unnatural to the flow of other conversations where they're snipping at each other constantly, to the point that any dialogue about MC and Merula dating is ''OOC'' for both of them.
