Nitroplus really popped off when they designed Rin and Shiki because these fools look exactly like what all the MySpace emos were trying to look like in 2005

NonPlatonic Forms ver 0.24 is now available for $5 and up patrons, and ver 0.23 is available on itch.io!

Includes:

More to read! The word count is now past 71k words. Diegesis definitely wouldn't want you to read some of these, but sadly, these little nasty secrets must come out sooner or later, mustn't they?

Several new sprites and a new location! I'd tell you why, but why spoil the fun? :3 One hint: there's going to be a point where the spelling issues are intentional. I think you'll know why, very quickly!

New art on the main menu! The doodles have been swapped out for real pencil sketches. I'll likely add some more later, but it does make a nicer initial impression.

Updated credits!

A Youji Sakiyama analysis

A living hell in your own body.

CW: Pregnacy, rape, male pregnancy, abuse, violence, etc. Basically, a whole NitroChiral+ game.

Please be aware that this analysis will contain spoilers from the route of Makoto and the game itself.

So, here it is.

Basically, I've been meaning to write this analysis for a while now. I waited until I finished the route of Makoto, but I'll continue on making these analysis while I do the rest.

I can admit that I wasn't not expecting to connect to Youji that much, but I surprised myself. I connected to him quite A LOT, something that hasn't occurred when referring to masculine leaning characters.

From the beginning we can see that he's the protagonist of the story, suffering from an illness that makes him weak. Having to lose time out of school due of it, Youji doesn't really seem to care about his surroundings. There's an anxiety that keeps him still, between the looks of his classmates and his daily routine.

Of course there's not a direct mention of the figure of Mary, if you're someone who has been in a catholic environment; you can tell that the feminine concept is what makes the game so important. Youji, as we soon discover through the playthrough, he is a Mesu. A parasite lives inside his body and makes him suffer symptoms of pregnancy and PMS.

From the beginning of the game we learn that there's a lot of biblical references, later we find out that the cult that exists in the Sweet Pool universe worships Sodom. For those that are not familiarized with Biblical Mythos, Sodom was the city of sinners and sodomy. God punished the citizens for their sins. The cult worships the city.

Now, going back to the virgin Mary figure. Who's Mary? Mary was the Mother of Jesus and the most important female figure for Catholics, second is Mary Magdalene.

Right in the beginning of the game we can see that in the shoe racks, there's an statue of the Virgin Mary holding a baby, her son, Jesus. Mary was impregnated by the Holy Spirit, without a sin. Her body is pure and an example of what an ideal wife and mother should be, faithful to her faith.

Youji is the opposite.

When Youji gets his first "period", I couldn't help but feel sadness. It reminded me when I first had mine when I turned 11 years old, coming back to school and suddenly feeling hot blood between legs; realizing with horror that I was able to get pregnant. Youji doesn't understand what is happening with his body and t his terrifies him.

In that very moment, Youji turned into an object of desire to others. Makoto, who was his only friend at school started to get attracted to him due the pheromones he is emanating. Zenya too, realizing that he is also one of his kind, since Zenya's family is part of the cult that I mentioned later.

Zenya couldn't become an Osu, a High Class male, with the Sodom parasyte, ending up severely traumatized and wanting to prove himself and his family that he can become one. In his ending, he ends up abusing Youji and violently does do so.

There's no happiness for Youji in his routes, but I'll mainly speak about his ending in Makoto's. Youji ends up cannibalized and raped by his best friend. If you are a someone with fem traits or appearance, you'll get definitely targeted by people who desire to touch you, or in the worst cases, to abuse you.

What I am explaining in this analysis, if you have female traits, you'll become an object of desire. If you bleed, you become something to produce. Youji turns into a whore and a virgin if you know about the Madonna complex.

As someone who deals with PCOS, having periods turned into a nightmare. Back in summer of 2022, I remember bleeding for almost two months, never knowing when it was going to end. I felt like there was a hell inside of me and that's why I connected so deeply to Youji and the parasite inside of him.

I think I'll write more of Youji later, but if there's something I can say about Sweet Pool that makes it different than DMMD, (I love both, truly, I had a very deep obsession with it back in 2014-2015), is that Sweet Pool connects to the female monstrosity.

Bleeding is something feminine and a monstrosity. Hence why is there so many horror movies that depicts motherhood and the female body like an Alien for example. I wouldn't say Youji accepts the parasite, but he ends up talking to them in a way.

Nobody was there for Youji but the statue of Mary in his school, observing how his body turned into the object of adoration and hate. Like hers.

Ok another thought about Slow Damage, that I've had from the beginning kinda, is that I love how overtly gay it is. I mean mostly in comparison with other Nitro+Chiral games, but a bit in general too.

First, with how they establish soon enough that Towa is like, hooking up with guys or whatever. I wasn't exactly surprised, cause I feel like that's just kinda how the BL genre has envolved in this last decade (and I guessed it from the info that Towa liked to get hurt or something), but still, it's something.

What kinda surprised me and made me happy though was how it didn't just end there. Rei is also openly queer, he and Towa even talk about whether someone is "his type", we have that other guy from the hospital (that Towa is shady towards lol), we meet one of Towa's hook-ups, when Ikuina says that the guy sending the flowers was in his 50's/60's Rei talks about him having a crush on Taku. Even the suggestion he makes then, that the guy could be embarrassed about it "especially since he's a guy" kinda makes it all more real, like it's not some perfect gay utopia (well, dystopia?) where that's the norm.

We have really come a long way from DRAMAtical Murder and I think that's great (love you Aoba, but COME ON!!!).

Fight me but Towa and Ikuina had the most s*xual chemistry out of any pairing in the game...my men managed to get the most erotic scenes I have ever seen in my life and their dinks weren't even out once, how crazy is that
