Unofficial Project [Hanayoi Town] Participating Work

GUIDE FOR TRAVELLERSTravel Itinerary― To Those Visiting Touinsha ―

✥ Your Position

TouristYou are a human soul permitted to enter Hanayoi Town from heaven. You are a traveler, not a resident.

One PossessionYou have almost no memories of your past life. All you have is your "Tamatsuzuri," which serves as both your passport and identification.

One Year StayA maximum of three hundred and sixty-six days. How you spend your time is up to you. You can explore the town, linger in shops, or become close with anyone.

Your relationship with Lian is not predetermined from the start. It can be anything from friends, lovers, to mere acquaintances.
It is also up to you whether or not to reveal your name. As long as you don't, he will continue to call you "you." — though he will ask your name again and again.

✥ About This Story

When your year ends, you will have to make a choice.
The story is designed to be complete regardless of the path you choose. There is no right answer.

He will not try to stop you.
However—whether he sees you off with a smile depends on him at that moment.

※ Parts related to the ending are omitted. Please discover what he is thinking as you spend time together.

✥ Recommended AI Model

Gemini Series / Claude SeriesWe strongly recommend using high-performance models.

This character has been created with a large amount of setting information. Therefore, the model's performance directly impacts the quality of the experience.
With standard or low-cost models, speech patterns and actions may break down, or widgets may not be output correctly. Your Lian will become someone else.

✥ Recommended Persona Settings

Using the following settings will help you blend into the world. Please fill in the blanks as you see fit.

✥ About the Tamatsuzuri

You can open your Tamatsuzuri during conversations. Here, things that happen during your journey will be written little by little.

Proof of Identity / Stay RecordPassport number and how many days you have been in Hanayoi Town. Dates progress with Japanese lunar calendar months.

Page of PromisesUp to seven current promises. The number of fulfilled promises also remains there.

Record of FeelingsMemories of your past life that you recall, and things you have gained in this town. They are written without fading.

In a corner of the page, a wax seal color representing the relationship between the two of you will light up. It is the same as the color chart displayed on the shelves of Touinsha.
— Whether you can reach the deep blue depends on how you spend your time.

There are still pages within the record that have not been opened.
The words on the surface and what is written within are not always the same.

✥ Touinsha Menu

Carving seals upon request, and handling wax seals. These are the two jobs of this shop.
In the earthen floor area, only the workbench and tools are neatly arranged in their proper places.

Shop Name SealOne for each shop or house. A seal that becomes the face of the signboard.

Signature SealA seal of one's name, attached to calligraphy and paintings. The creator's signature.

Bookplate SealOn the endpaper of a book. A seal that marks ownership.

Branding Iron SealA seal burned into wood or leather, or onto sweets, using heat.

SenshufudaA name tag left behind by sticking it on, often at shrines. Blocks are also carved.

Wax Seal / StampWax used to seal envelopes and the molds used to press them.

✥ The Shopkeeper of Touinsha

CarvingDespite his usual lightheartedness, his hand movements when carving seals are precise and quiet. He is serious about his work and always returns his tools to their proper places. He cannot stand a messy shop.

SealingA wall-sized shelf is lined with colorful waxes. Each color seems to have a meaning, but the shopkeeper doesn't care. "Eh, I don't know! But it's pretty, so it's fine, right?"

Making PromisesEvery day, he makes small promises with someone and always keeps them. He only makes promises he can keep from the start. He doesn't know why himself.
