#nagachi

He dropped some gendered statements like Harada here and there at the beginning but probably did it to hide his romantic feelings from Chizuru and stops saying these things once he opens up to her more.

Also, just like Souji's route is the only route where Chizuru fights and kills someone (outside of a bad ending), Shinpachi's route is the only route where Chizuru is working on her swordfighting skills. ...Not like she does anything with it, though... But hey, better than nothing.

(This doesn't make her a stronger fem character than in the routes where she never fights or trains, this is just something that I wanted too see/do and that's why I love it.)

Wedding:

Who proposed? Shinpachi. We actually saw that~

Who are the best man and groomsmen? Not applicable, but the rest of the guys (Harada and Heisuke in particular) were probably there in spirit.

Who are the maid of honor and bridesmaids? Not applicable, but I like to think Sen visited and took that position in retrospect.

Who did the most planning? Shinpachi, or rather, his family. He still had a clan to return to, which is more than Chizuru could say.

Who stressed the most? Shinpachi. Chizuru was surprisingly chill about the whole thing, but Shinpachi is fully aware of his reputation and his wild youth. There was a part of him that doubted, though his guilt in response to that doubt was the bigger stressor by far.

How fancy was the ceremony? Back of a pickup truck | 2 | 3 | 4 | Normal Church Wedding | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Kate and William wish they were this big

Who was specifically not invited to the wedding? Unfortunately, everyone. They’d lost track of everyone by then, and honestly didn’t want to know most of their fates.

Sex:

Who is on top? Shinpachi, generally.

Who is the one to instigate things? Usually Shinpachi, but he reeeeaaaally likes it when Chizuru makes the first move.

How healthy is their sex life? Barely touch themselves let alone each other | 2 | 3 | 4 | Once or twice a week, nothing overboard | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They are humping each other on the couch right now

How kinky are they? Straight missionary with the lights off | 2 | 3 | 4 | Might try some butt stuff and toys | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Don’t go into the sex dungeon without a horse’s head

How long do they normally last? Not a long time, but long enough to satisfy them both, and they often go multiple rounds.

Do they make sure each person gets an equal amount of orgasms? Yes. Shinpachi in particular is very careful with Chizuru because he hasn’t been the most generous before.

How rough are they in bed? Softer than a butterfly on the back of a bunny | 2 | 3 | 4 | The bed’s shaking and squeaking every time | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Their dirty talk is so vulgar it’d make Dwayne Johnson blush. Also, the wall’s so weak it could collapse the next time they do it.

How much cuddling/snuggling do they do? No touching after sex | 2 | 3 | 4 | A little spooning at night, or on the couch, but not in public | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They snuggle and kiss more often than a teen couple on their fifth date to a pillow factory.

Children:

How many children will they have naturally? Probably just one.

How many children will they adopt? None.

Who gets stuck with the most diapers? Chizuru, because Shinpachi doesn’t know what the hell he’s doing.

Who is the stricter parent? Both of them are about equally structured in their style, which is to say, not a lot… but don’t cross certain lines.

Who stops the kid(s) from doing dangerous stunts after school? Chizuru, because Shinpachi tends to get involved.

Who remembers to pack the lunch(es)? Chizuru for sure.

Who is the more loved parent? Both of them, but Chizuru acts more like a parent and is a lot better at helping out when needed (and discerning when she’s needed in the first place), so she probably wins by a small margin.

Who is more likely to attend the PTA meetings? Chizuru, if they existed in this setting.

Who cried the most at graduation? Shinpachi, if that was a thing. Not that Chizuru didn’t cry too, but Shinpachi really let loose. He’d been bottling up everything for long enough, certainly.

Who is more likely to bail the child(ren) out of trouble with the law? Both of them, but Shinpachi might actually succeed once he stops being a fugitive.

Cooking:

Who does the most cooking? Chizuru for sure. There are other people in the household who could technically take care of that, but she’s happy to do it.

Who is the most picky in their food choice? Shinpachi isn’t picky, but he’s more likely to get random cravings. For instance, he’ll beg Chizuru to prepare some sort of extravagant feast, and she’ll laugh and oblige.

Who does the grocery shopping? Chizuru, but sometimes Shinpachi tags along to prove that chivalry isn’t dead by carrying her purchases.

How often do they bake desserts? Quite a lot.

Are they more of a meat lover or a salad eater? Chizuru makes sure Shinpachi gets a balanced diet, since he’s not so picky that he cares that much anyway.

Who is more likely to surprise the other(s) with an anniversary dinner? Shinpachi is more likely to help have one made, since Chizuru works so hard in the kitchen all the time. If he tried it on his own, the results would likely be disastrous.

Who is more likely to suggest going out? Shinpachi. He likes going out on the town, especially if it means showing off his lovely wife. Giving her a break from cooking and showing his generosity is a huge bonus, too.

Who is more likely to burn the house down accidentally while cooking? Shinpachi.

Chores:

Who cleans the room? Chizuru, but she has Shinpachi wrapped around her little finger, so it’s not too hard to get him to help. Again, other people could technically take care of it, but she likes being able to maintain her own space.

Who is really against chores? Shinpachi. But Chizuru is more than capable of offering him rewards and incentive.

Who cleans up after the pets? They don’t keep pets.

Who is more likely to sweep everything under the rug? Shinpachi. Chizuru always notices, but doesn’t say anything.

Who stresses the most when guests are coming over? Both of them are fairly uptight given that ‘guests’ could mean anything from old friends to deadly enemies, but Chizuru tends to fret more over the little details.

Who found a dollar between the couch cushions while cleaning? Shinpachi. He kept it.

Misc:

Who takes the longer showers/baths? Shinpachi. He remembers times when he didn’t get to relax for as long as he wanted, so he’s decided to make up for it now. Often, Chizuru joins him.

Who takes the dog out for a walk? They don’t have one, mostly because Shinpachi is almost like a puppy already.

How often do they decorate the room/house for the holidays? Always. Their clan is rather festive, and having lived through a number of life-threatening events, Shinpachi in particular is enthusiastic about celebrating life.

What are their goals for the relationship? Just staying alive and together is enough at this point. Love will do the rest.

Who is most likely to sleep till noon? Shinpachi. And, quite often, he does. He still has nocturnal tendencies and gets sleepy in the sunlight, even if it’s no longer painful.
