Slowpoke here.
Just finish Cross Channel. Get out if you haven't finish them yet. I am probably gonna post some spoilers.

This end is pretty anti climatic.
I would have rate it right up there with Ever17 if they have just ended it before the ending credit.
What the fuck is it with dream end. I was perfectly fine with the Taichi broadcasting from the other world end.

Also not surprised to see Nasu liking this game. Kagetsu Tohya is like a total ripped off of CC style and I wouldn't be surprised if Sakura is modeled after Kiri.

Also NANAKA ERO Scene where? I hate it how the BEST girl always doesn't get a route.

But in the last few threads, there were a number of people annoyed by the number of Cross Channel threads today. It's begun to breed a new type of troll that focuses only on Cross Channel, although many people originally enjoyed Cross Channel. If we keep the thread count down, and wait until the thread hits autosage before starting a new thread, we can avoid trolling, the way idol threads do.

>>3351903
Also, the very beginning of the game was entirely a delusion made of both fake and real memories, mixed and mashed together from different times, recollected after Taichi became all alone. I didn't notice that on my first time through; I feel slow and stupid.

If you actually took the time to read the threads and figure out why they became trollfests, maybe you could of realized that they were trolling because there were too damn many Cross Channel threads today.

What I really liked about Cross Channel was how well it dealt with the "lol every route happened in the multiverse" concept.

Taichi: "......"
Misato: "Wh-what's wrong?......What do you......want from me......?"
She was short of breath.
And she seemed horribly stressed.
Which makes sense, because I'd been chasing her.
And now I've cornered her.
Misato: "D-don't come any closer......we can talk about this......okay? Peke-kun......calm down......"

Taichi: "What's that 'ukyu?' You're running your mouth like an eroge heroine. Do you have ulterior motives?"

I took out my knife.

Taichi: "......maybe...you're feeling jealous of her?"
I moved closer to her.
Touko: "Ah, no, don't............!!?"
Tomoki and Sakuraba. I approached them both from behind.
Taichi: "Did you watch TV last night?"
It seemed like the two of them said something.

I ****ed Sakuraba.
Taichi: "I was browsing some news sites too..."
Tomoki let out a moan.

Kiri was there.
Taichi: "Kiriii!"
I called out to her, and Kiri ran away.
Kiri: "......!!"
I gave chase.
Taichi: "Where's your lunch?"
Kiri: "Ha! Ha!......!!"
She ran through the long hallway.
Taichi: "That's right, Kiri, you bring bentous. Must be nice."
Kiri: "......don't come......any closer!"
She ran.
Kiri: "Ha! Ha! Ha!"
An alarm was ringing in some far-off place.
Taichi: "No, you don't have to do that."
Kiri: "Stop!......Ha! Don't......!"
Taichi: "But it might be nice once in a while......I'd like to try Kiri's cooking, after all..."
Kiri: "S-someone!!"
Kiri: "I'm going to be killed! Someone!!!"
Taichi: "Aaah, I'll look forward to it."
Taichi: "As thanks......oh, that's right......here's a doll I got at the arcade."
I took out some knives. Two of them.
They dangled from my hands as I ran.
Kiri: "Ha!......Ha! Ha, ! Ha!......"
I gave chase.
We both rushed down the hallway.
Kiri: "Ha! Wh-why are you......!?"
Taichi: "Dunno......what doll is it? Maybe something from an anime?"
Kiri: "Ha! Ha......nn!......"
She stumbled.
I closed the distance between us in one motion.
Taichi: "Like me? Really? But my hair isn't even white."
Kiri: "No, nooo!"
Zero distance.
I looked down.
Knives in both hands.
I also smiled.
This way, I won't even have to use the knives.
I grabbed her ankles and pulled her closer.
Kiri's smiling.
I bore down on her.

I'm not comfortable with the idea that Week 1 happened after Week 7 since there are still 'real' parts mixed in the messed up flashbacks. Else that suggests nothing in the game actually occurs, and his friends probably either died off somehow or they were never in the loop in the first place. I think it's just storytelling trick as in Ever 17 where they mislead you into thinking that the events happen sequentially even though they actually do not.
