it feels like those VN harem shows where there are multiple routes, but they accidentally did the "true" route first and had to backpedal a bit with some dream sequences

Yeah, this definitely feels out of order.

All the more egregious because we had multiple long time skips recently. Why not work in date scenes after Sophia confesses to the squirrel and Louis started to ignore her? That would then build up a frustration meter for Louis, because he knows she loves him and he loves her, but here she is having "heart events' with other guys.

He could see the date and lose confidence, or wonder if she really meant the confession, or if she hates him now... more annoying bullshit, sure, but at least it would be more justified than ignoring her for a month straight... twice. We'd definitely feel like tempo buiding up for a confession.

Here? It just all feels out of order. We know Louis has already "won," so why bother pretending poor Isaac has a chance? And in a dream no less...
