Tear Jerker / Criminal Girls

Go To

  • In the Frost block, the girls very nearly cross the Despair Event Horizon and the entire group disbands, leaving the player character alone. The music that plays as the PC wanders through the snow-filled halls, calling out for the girls and hoping they haven't damned themselves to an eternity in hell is heart-wrenching. Appropriately enough, the name of the track is "Sadness Arrives."
  • Ran cements her status as The Woobie in the Education block when she first recognizes her old school and cries out in mental agony. Then we learn what drove her to commit her sinful actions.
    • Shin's isn't much better as we see just how badly she was shunned, isolated, and bullied by her peers simply for being a gamer girl. You can just tell how much she's trying to hold back her tears when she erases the chalkboard.
  • Each of the girls overcoming their sins and accepting their reformed selves.
  • A happy one after defeating the final boss and Himekami is redeemed.
