Poll: Should Aya have pubic hair?
Added 2023-01-22 19:57:38 +0000 UTCEDIT: I ended the poll after a day. Seeing as it was pretty much 50/50, it didn't quite help with my decision. So I'll simply do what I had intended in the first place. Aya will have pubic hair, though it won't be always there... if you know what I mean.
It might be a bit early for that poll since next month will be the last part of the Hero path (Fallen), and Aya's path will only be the next month after (March), but I need to know the answer now since my artist will start working on her scenes soon.
Since she's Japanese, it would be kinda par for the course for her character, but I don't know if for some it's a turn-off or something. It's a porn game first and foremost after all. So I think leaving that choice to the community is the best call here.
It's nothing intrusive, so my personal opinion is that she should have pubic hair. Here are the sprites with and without it, just to give you guys an idea:

On a side note, I want to make something clear about her path. Or more specifically, the difference between her Path and her Route. I know it's confusing—most don’t know the difference—so I'll try to repeat it as often as I can.
Aya's path is in Laura's route. It starts at the same place as all the other paths in Laura's route; right after the vote for Luca's proposal. And since it's in Laura's route, Laura is still a substantial part of that path. It should give a taste of Aya without spoiling the fun too much.
Aya's route should be considered more like the second part of the game. It will probably not be as lengthy as Laura's route, but I don't plan on rushing it either. Aya's route (compared to her path counterpart) starts at the very beginning of the game, when she kisses Harry in the hotel room. In her route, Aya is the main heroine and you will be able to enjoy her full corruption.
I know it's a bit convoluted. I hope I'm not confusing people too much.

Pubic hair is not a turn off if it is nicely trimmed. I like a well done brazilian wax... sometimes it's hotter then totally shaven. And if I agree with Aya shaving her pubes in a seduction process, I think that Laura should have it nicely trimmed. Of course that Luca could force her to shave it all and that will be a problem to explain that to Harry...

2023-01-25 19:48:52 +0000 UTCi think the proper vote question would be, is pubic hair would be a turn off or not? so you can see what the others limit not just preferences

2023-01-25 19:25:21 +0000 UTCMy vote would be for no pubic hair. To me, it would only make sense for Aya to have pubic hair if it is going to get removed by Luca during her corruption process. Otherwise, I would say that she should not have any. She is trying to seduce Harry after all and she is likely to shave it as part of that process. Also, both Aya and Laura strike me as woman who take very good care of their appearances and that would include removing their pubic area. Just my food for thought on the issue.

2023-01-23 18:15:21 +0000 UTCI am also in favor of pubic hair in the beginning and Luca telling her to shave at one point (maybe not neccessarily removing it but shaping it into something more lewd)

2023-01-23 10:18:51 +0000 UTCI would like to see a bit more on Laura...however at the same time I cannot wait to see Aya descend in the abyss of corruption :)

2023-01-23 08:52:06 +0000 UTCBuilding off of @JacobsLoliCollection, I voted no hair, but I care a lot more about the corruption. If Aya has hair but it was taken off during the corruption, I'd swap my vote

2023-01-22 22:01:33 +0000 UTCI'm not a fan of body hair in general so I voted no, but a neat bush isn't really a turn-off so I won't be upset if that wins. In any case, I'm definitely looking forward to finally getting to see Aya's fall into depravity!

2023-01-22 20:45:05 +0000 UTCThe author's opinion of course weighs heavily, and I have also added my own vote. Independent of the vote though, I would like to bring up those bikini photos of Aya, especially the white one. It seems so skimpy that if Aya were to have pubic hair as portrayed in the sprite example, it might be visible with the bikini due to the small size of the swimwear.
