[Requests Accepted] [propeller] すきま桜とうその都会 [VJ01002198]

A modern box garden ADV created by Nanakurumi Misao. The protagonist and his sister stumble into a town called "Sakurano," where only "liars" can enter. This town is home to a gigantic cherry blossom known as "Konayuki Sakura," which casts a large umbrella over the entire area with its branches and flowers, illuminating the streets with light that filters through the gaps in the branches. The protagonist and his sister end up living in a dormitory called "Sakura-so" located in Shinjuku, which serves as a facility for "lost people" who have wandered into this town. In a town where only "liars" reside, a story unfolds about the warmest lie in the world. It is a delicate world depicted by Nanakurumi Misao and Watanabe Ryoichi. --- **Story** "When you pass through the gap sakura, you find yourself in a city of liars." Even though it is already winter—stretching out from the inorganic valleys of the city—cherry branches reach out from between the office buildings. In an alleyway nestled between newly completed skyscrapers, that city lay beyond the gap sakura. A city called "Sakurano," where only "liars" can enter. The story begins as the protagonist, Yuma, and his younger sister, Sakura, wander into this fantastical city bordered by tall buildings. The winter city transforms into a spring town, with cherry blossoms covering the sky and pink light filtering through. It felt like a scene out of a fairy tale. Invited by Nene, who serves as the dorm leader at Sakurano Academy, the two end up living in Sakura Dorm. They meet the girls who reside there and begin their school life. During their time at Sakura, Yuma hears rumors about a mysterious girl who "makes lies come true" and decides to explore Sakura with the girls in the dorm to make a certain lie a reality. - The princess-like sister, Sakura. - The amnesiac childhood friend, Hanju. - The hyperactive silly girl, Chiyoko. - The mysterious girl in a kimono, Suzume. It is a gentle story of lies. --- **Characters** - **Kasugai Sakura (CV: Miru)** The protagonist's younger sister, one year younger. Her first-person pronoun is "watashi." She is a bit assertive and bold, always carrying her phone, making her a modern girl. She likes her brother but can't be honest about it, even though her actions are straightforward. She often seeks hugs and wants to take baths together, demanding it. Despite her strong desire for attention, she can be quite contrary when given it, acting like a true contrarian. Nevertheless, she insists on being treated like a princess by Yuma, who has no choice but to call her "Sister-sama." - **Tachibana Hanju (CV: Arisugawa Miyami)** A natural and simple girl with long black hair, and also a childhood friend. She is actually amnesiac, but Yuma has memories of their childhood together. She often tries to act like an older sister, but it usually falls flat, leaving others unsure of her intentions. In group settings, she tends to be the target of teasing. Being natural, she struggles to read the atmosphere, often making off-target comments. Her pace of life is generally slow. When something goes wrong, she tends to cover it up with cute little lies. - **Amou Chiyoko (CV: Yukito Saori)** A bright and overly energetic girl, she can be a bit annoying and hyperactive. She is extremely lazy to the point of avoiding even preparing instant noodles. With a straightforward personality, she is easy to get along with, and she is also quite frank. For some reason, she is knowledgeable about various things and has many hobbies, though none of them last long. She easily gets distracted and quickly gives up. Recently, she has become obsessed with writing haikus. - **Suzume (CV: Sasagawa Kiyuki)** A mysterious girl they meet in Sakurano, often encountered in front of the Konayuki Sakura. She is rumored in Sakurano to have the appearance of a god who can "make lies come true." A quiet girl who rarely shows her emotions, she has little variation in her expressions. She often lacks common sense and asks questions about trivial matters that a normal person would already know, like a child. Depending on the progression of the story, she may become a member of the dorm and gradually develop her emotions through interactions with other characters.
