Elisa’s campus looks normal for like five seconds. Brick buildings, bright sun on the field, some basic-ass lockers that look like they were copied from a stock photo, the usual. Then the camera follows her in that too-tight cheer outfit and suddenly everything feels one step away from a cult ritual with pom-poms. She’s this pretty, slightly naive girl with that “I want everyone to love me” energy, and the game never lets you forget that every choice is about who gets to play with that weakness. Sometimes it is her using it. Sometimes it is someone using it on her. Often both, which is the fun part.

The mood swings a lot. One moment she’s trying to be a good student, actually doing homework in her dorm while you click through dialogue and think “ok, normal VN stuff,” then some smug guy from the team sits on her desk like he owns the room and the energy flips. He talks down to her, calls her his “little mascot”, pulls her by the chin, and you get those options like “push him away” or “go on your knees” and you know damn well what the horny part of your brain wants. When you choose to give in, the scene does not play shy. There is full-on oral, sloppy, with her mascara just a bit smeared and the camera way too close to her lips moving up and down his cock. The animation is not Hollywood smooth, it looks slightly janky sometimes, but honestly that makes it feel more like a cursed amateur sex tape some eldritch entity left in the school archive. I liked that. I hated that. I still clicked again.

What got me was how the power flips are not clean. You can push her into this queen-bitch path, where she realizes guys will do anything just to get between her legs. She learns to weaponize her smile in the locker room, telling some nerd to hold her bag, calling him “doggy” while she steps close enough that his brain shuts down. She humiliates him softly, making him stare at her panties under the skirt, then laughing when he stutters. And yet later, in the same save, she can be on her back in a dark classroom, legs spread, taking rough vaginal pounding from a teacher who talks like he owns her future. “You want that scholarship, Elisa?” he asks, and the text choices pretend she has a say, but you already chose the path ten scenes earlier. There is something almost Lovecraft about that. Not the tentacles, but the idea that her “freedom” is just a thin veil over deeper control. She thinks she manipulates; the system manipulates her. Also there is a blowjob behind the bleachers that goes on longer than it should and I still remember how her throat bulged a little when he forced himself deeper. The sounds are filthy in a good way and then someone walks by outside and she has to keep sucking while silently panicking. I wanted more scenes where she fully takes charge and uses guys like furniture, just stomping on their ego and dignity, but the game keeps pulling her back into being the toy too. It annoyed me. It turned me on. I’m still not sure which part won.
