Through the Panels

Mimi Stokes is a young woman who want to leave her small village and pursue a career as a comic book artist.

Since her new friends (and enemies) all appear like characters straight out of her favorite mangas and dramas, Mimi is thrilled when her dad's job relocates her family and enrolls her in a new school in a new nation.

Mimi begins her first comic book series, based on the lives of her classmates, after becoming inspired. But since drama generally has to be started, Mimi soon finds herself interfering in their private problems to get additional material for her narrative.

While the protagonist in Through the Panels is clearly defined, the user can customize the player character's name and look. Additionally, the decisions he makes in the common path mold her personality, which creates new dialogue and decision opportunities in the unique routes.

The narrative of the game explores not only the player's friendship with the characters but also their interpersonal interactions.
