Tokimeki Memorial

Tokimeki Memorial

The game's prologue begins with the protagonist enrolling in Kirameki Private High School, which he chose in an attempt to reconnect with his childhood friend, Shiori Fujisaki, whom he has always had a crush on. On his first day of school, he meets Yoshio Saotome, who becomes his best friend, and the most popular guy in school: Rei Ijuin, the snobby grandson of Kirameki's chairman, who is beloved by the girls and hated by the boys. Soon, he also learns about Kirameki High's legend: couples tied under the school's Legendary Tree on the graduation day will be blessed with eternal happiness.

The rest of the plot is highly flexible depending on the player's actions, but generally takes place over the course of three high school years. Some fixed events are the Sports Festivals held annually, the school trip in the second year, and the introduction of Yumi Saotome, Yoshio's little sister and a freshman one year younger than the protagonist, in the second year. The game usually ends with the protagonist receiving a confession of love from one of the girls on graduation day.
