Congratulations! It’s never been one of my vices (though I keep meaning to stop so I can quit and live longer) but my wife, mother and brother all have had the habit in the past and breaking it ain’t easy.

Yeah, breaking free from a dependency is never easy indeed 
I’ve had many failed streaks before the current one (none of them were this long though – my previous record was about two months).
I’m very glad your wife, mother and brother managed to get rid of it as well

I quite enjoyed it and wanted to play it in Japanese, but I don’t have it and it’s not easy to buy (it was made for PS2 and hasn’t been ported to newer consoles or PC). However, this video walkthrough might be an even better option

Personally, I think you got “sucked in” by the kitty cats’s commentary at 2:15, Trunkieさくん!
It’s great!
I’ve added it to my watch list!
You know it’s my favorite to have voiced VN’s to be able to pause on videos of Let’s Plays…
Thank you so much for posting about this!
