Description

Play through two prequels that explore the origins of Eternal Hour's storyline!

Eternal Hour: Strings of Fate invites you to play as Rin, Yasu's Aunt, eleven years before the events of Eternal Hour! You will discover more about Rin's past and how she came to live in Tokya, and how she became Yasu's guardian. You'll also experience sweet moments of gentle romance as Rin and her new friend, Megumi, slowly fall in love, even as they experience tough times together.

Eternal Hour: The Lost Date invites you to play as Yasu ten months before the events of Eternal Hour, in what seems to be just a normal day, when Yasu meets Katashi, Tamiko and Naoko for a fun trip to the beach. The day turns into a mysterious adventure after they stumble upon a magical symbol etched on the ground within a cave, and everything seems to go insane.

Description Naoko is a student at Tokya High School and a senior member of the Climber's Club. Yasu's oldest friend, the two have known each other since they were six years old. Naoko is the geeky type of girl who has good grades in physics, loves to read romance stories and has insightful answers to any questions asked. Naoko is a bit shy at times, and her friends tend to sway her into all kind of unwanted adventures as she finds it hard to keep secrets, all while trying to keep her cool at all times. Yasu and Naoko share an unfortunate event as Naoko’s father left her mother in order to go to China around the same time Yasu lost his parents. This led to a special bond between Yasu and Naoko: an understanding that doesn’t need words. They knew how the other felt and they’ve been there for each other ever since. Yasu always felt that there is more to their friendship than the words they shared, but he never had the courage to ask before, while Naoko always tried to hide her secret love for Yasu. While very bright, Naoko’s mother owns a cat-themed cafe (Caturday Cafe!) and Naoko has an inherent love for felines. She also owns a mischievous cat named Shiko, who will complicate things between her and Yasu.

Description Daisuke is a student at Tokya High School and a senior member of the Climber's Club. Daisuke is Yasu's tall, well-built and trusty companion whom he has known ever since he was seven years old. He is always there for Yasu... to make his life a little harder! While Daisuke may never try to do this, he always seems to make the wrong choice at the wrong time. It may be because he's not smart enough, or that he's just unlucky, but whenever he tries to help his friends, he seems to make things worse, all except for that one rare time when he's a real life-saver. With his great looks and interesting character, Daisuke could have been the perfect playboy, but his heart is far too kind and his imagination too obtuse so his personality ends up being far too goofy for that lifestyle. He also loves food, and is obsessed with idols; he happens to be one of the biggest fans of Mai's idol group, R-Slide.

Description Hikaru is a student at Tokya High School, and a senior member of the Archaeology Club. A kind and generous girl, Hikaru spends most of her free time at the Starlight Orphanage watching over the kids, and plans to do it full-time after their graduation. Hikaru is an innocent and good-willed girl, but she can also be ditsy and gullible at times, as well as quite oblivious to Yasu's feelings for her. It was at Starlight that Hikaru met Yasu when they were both seven, Yasu having lost his parents. Hikaru is always doing her best to help others, but she is losing sleep, skipping classes and even failing some of her exams over the hours she spends at Starlight Orphanage. This all led her to fear that she might never graduate. It all may be to Yasu's advantage, as he can choose to spend more time with Hikaru and help remedy her grades, slowly flourishing a sweet - mellow romance. She also loves idol groups.

Description Katashi is a student at Tokya High School, and leader of the Climber's Club. With a strong confidence and a tendency to order his friends around, Katashi is one of Yasu's closest friends, and the one who keeps the Climber's Club going forward. He is charismatic, smart and bold, and known as one of the most popular guys in the school. Katashi has been Tamiko's boyfriend for a while now, but their relationship looks more like a status quo to Katashi; He always puts in great efforts to make her happy and Tamiko always plays him down. Yasu and Katashi have known each other since they were ten years old, but their friendship is just as questionable as Katashi's relationship with Tamiko is. Katashi always relies on Yasu's help for keeping things in check. Yasu often does the dirty work for Katashi to end up well, while Katashi cherishes having Yasu as a friend. In his early childhood, Katashi lived with his parents overseas, where he also got his specific accent as his father is an well-known businessman. Although Katashi never learned much about the profession, he believes that academic results are a means of value for his life, and this led to him to work hard for the grades he has. Adding to everything else, he's got his own car, and is set to attend university outseas. The one thing Katashi truly fears is upsetting his father.
