Description

After a year as a ronin student preparing to retake his university entrance exams, Ryota Hibiki has finally passed. Much of his success is thanks to Atsushi Kenzaki, the tutor his parents hired the previous summer—and the man who is now his boyfriend. But a spring-break visit to campus brings an unexpected reunion with Iori Toramaru, Ryota’s best friend from high school and the former ace of their baseball team. Now attending the same university, Iori excels as both a pitcher and a batter, ranks at the top of his class, and claims to have plenty of experience with women. Whether that last boast holds up is another matter. His reunion with Ryota soon sparks a rivalry, as he and Atsushi compete for Ryota’s attention. Gachi-Haru explores that tension without turning it into a story of betrayal: the developer explicitly confirms that there is no NTR, and the consensual three-way content ultimately strengthens Ryota and Atsushi’s relationship rather than pulling them apart. Gachi-Haru is a linear kinetic novel, presenting its story without player choices or branching routes. Illustrator Wasp returns from Gachi-Natsu to provide the character designs and artwork, while Ryota and Atsushi are fully voiced by professional male voice actors, with voice performances available only in Japanese.
