Artist's commentary
On behalf of my sister and myself, thank you, Kotaro Uchikoshi!
This Clover bookmark was a birthday present, made by my sister since we love the character.
I want to share the experience I had when I first played VLR.
I decided to follow Alice, the last mystery from the amazing 999 game. When the time came to Ally or Betray, I chose Betray since I believed she’d do the same. I felt so guilty when the results came in (she chose Ally) that I turned off the game and changed my decision.
Confident, I selected Ally. The results appeared and this time Alice had betrayed me. My character confronts her, angry for an answer.
–I made the most logical choice. Everyone who think otherwise is, well, an idiot- she says.
–But you didn’t do that before! - Sigma replies. At this moment, it hit me. The game knew. There was no escaping it. I realized, from here on out, every choice would always be remembered.
Alice and Phi are curious about why Sigma said “before”, but they don’t need to. I do.
Thank you, Kotaro Uchikoshi.
I wish you only the best of luck for your future projects. I love your stories to Infinity, there’s just No Escape from them once they capture you, and, to be honest, I wouldn’t want to.
