Story:
A university student living an ordinary life in Kyoto finds himself increasingly troubled by a strange sense that something is deeply wrong. What begins as a simple trip to a convenience store gradually unfolds into a story that converges on a single, life-changing incident.
================
This video is a fake playthrough of the ending scene from my visual novel, "The Kami at the Convenience Store (コンビニの祟り神)."
I originally released the game in Japanese in February 2026. As I did with "Secret Followers," I considered creating a full English version. However, the story turned out to be far longer than expected, contained many culturally specific elements, and dealt with themes that were not always easy to approach. In the end, I had to abandon the idea of a complete English release.
Even so, while the game was never particularly popular, it seemed to leave a strong impression on some players, and the kind comments I received encouraged me to continue improving it.
Recently, I commissioned professional voice actress Senka Chiyoda, known for voicing Pomni in the Japanese dub of The Amazing Digital Circus, to perform Tokoyomi-sama's monologue in the final scene. Her performance was absolutely wonderful, and it inspired me to create an English version of this ending sequence so that more people could experience it.
Even in the original Japanese version, Tokoyomi-sama only appears with full voice acting during this final scene, making it a special moment within the story.
If you are interested in the complete game, an automatically translated English version can be played through Novel Game Collection's translation feature, although the quality of the translation is limited.

And if, by some miracle, someone experienced in Japanese-to-English localization would like to help translate the full script, I would be more grateful than I can express. Though I should warn you—the script is incredibly long.
