If you enjoyed the anime (as I did), the game's plotline is... substantially different. You might want to google it up before buying it.

I'm having some trouble finding anything concrete without going into spoiler territory. Basic plot sounds the same, though. I understand the PC version is an Adult game. Can you PM me what you're talking about? Unless it requires spoilers to understand lol. In that case I'd rather risk not liking it than be spoiled.

What company do I need to beg to get this released in the West? I'd rather have uncut PC version with the game in it's originally intended form, but I also think the Switch is a perfect platform for visual novels in general so I wouldn't mind it getting a US release on either platform. Who do I beg?

It's not really a spoiler. In brief, the VN is a bishoujo romance/eroge where the player-insert male is the main character and the story focuses on his character arc. The anime is more akin to a shonen sports series where one of the girls from the VN is the main character instead, with the player insert reduced to a supporting role, and the story focuses on her character arc.

I don't know who to beg for this one, but I've wanted a chance to play it for a while - I keep hoping for something, even a fan translation patch if a company like Sekai Project doesn't want to pick it up, but so far nothing. Of course, I've also been waiting three years for the VN of A Good Librarian Like a Good Shepherd to get an English language treatment too, and that hasn't happened either.
