Spaku-kun’s Friend

The longer you play, the more of a drama queen she becomes. The
occasional game crashes are caused by Save-chan’s tantrums.


Her response becomes sluggish


Supa-kun’s Friend

Her weight increases in proportion to the size of her save file


It’s truly getting bloated

Spa-kun’s friends

Lately, he’s sometimes up in the clouds


You can meet him from anywhere

Spa-kun’s friend

If you don’t raise your favorability, they won’t save for you


Eventually, they’ll start saving automatically

Spa-kun’s friends

Three cute sisters with 0% cuteness will welcome you


The evil triplets who erase your memories with Save-chan

Supa-kun’s Friends

Since auto-save is so common these days, there are quite a few people who’ve never actually seen it in action.


In fact, they might even show up without you even noticing

Spa-kun’s friends

Even the slightest vibration causes them to lose their memory


Please don’t jolt him

Supa-kun’s friend

Save-chan, who’s progressing smoothly through her adventure; Save-chan, just about to confess her feelings to her lover; and Save-chan, just about to betray her
companions—all exist simultaneously


An early Save-chan who’s been left untouched for a long time…

Spa-kun’s friends

Sometimes the cloud-based and local Save-ko versions fight over who’s the “real” one, and one of them ends up leaving…


They argue over which one is the latest

Supa-kun’s friends

Since they’re identified by account rather than appearance, if you’re
logged out, the character will treat you like a stranger every time you talk to them


A kid who isn’t judged by their looks

Spa-kun’s friends

I recognize RMT operators as a criminal organization involved in human trafficking


I’m suddenly being bombarded with all sorts of information…

Spa-kun’s friend

Takes photos whenever the opportunity arises


Photos of save points as souvenirs


Spa-kun’s friend

Sometimes, he forgets about me.


It’s like the beginning of a story

Spa-kun’s friend

Mistakes “Do you want to overwrite?” for “Are you cheating on me?” and gets angry


Is that why they keep asking for confirmation over and over?

Supa-kun’s friend

A self-proclaimed 17-year-old says, “We used to save to floppy disks back in the day, but it’s so convenient that we can save to the cloud
now, isn’t it?”


17 years and 479 months

Supa-kun’s friend

Save-chan, who was modified by an evil organization, possesses
incredible physical abilities and a huge amount of cash


Sometimes the modification fails and she gets damaged

Spa-kun’s friend

Save-chan died because I was so reckless as to play on Hardcore Mode! She’s
never coming back… Waaaaaaaaaah!!!!


It was just a little mistake…
