Is there any way to skip the Haruka section?

Why the hell are we being forced to play this horrible QTE nightmare?
What was SEGA thinking with this bit?
It feels like I'm being punished for something

Especially the part where Haruka have the option to stare at Seira's chest during the air hockey minigame

nah, that's pretty tame compared to an interview where a guy asks her if she'd sleep with a man in his 35-50s, and correct answer being "if we were in love". Haruka is 16 for christ's sake.... Or handshake event where weirdos gasps and breathe straight at her and then sniff their hands upon leaving.

about the age difference, is it ok in japanese culture? both morally and legally speaking? And not frowned upon like in western culture? It's mind boggling how that is the correct answer

I don't know, everything under 18 is a child in my eyes and no culture can make me feel like its okay.

Haruka ruined the series.

technically to beat the game there is like 1 or 2 dance minigames that you have to do and you can skip the rest - there are no consequences (story or gameplay) for failing princess league so you can just literally quit out during that as well

Imagine getting filtered by the best chapter in the game lol

So let me get this straight.
You think the best part of a brawler is a rhythm/QTE part.
Then why the hell did you buy a brawler in the first place?

The writing is simply on spot at every step you take into the story (or substories), they really did a great job with the characters and the side quests are simply great, always in-lore and not as wacky as usual. Only issue: how the f Haruka goes around working in the Freddy Kruger cosplay all the time?

The writing doesn't mean ♥♥♥♥ when it's the most boring thing you've ever played

That depends on you and your experience with rythum games. I've played a few so I don't really find Haruka's career mode that bad. There are several mini-games that aren't based on the rythum mode and you can simply do them by selecting the correct answer, some others are pushing on your memory and so forth. Or you can go all the way to the end without even touching the battles or jobs.

Everything she has is boring. There is not a single entertaining thing you can do with Haruka.

I find every dance battle to be a good challenge. Once you unlock the "special" dancers via the job missions and finishing the main side story, you will face a lot more challenging ppl and regardless the progress you made on Haruka, you won't be able to win if you are not at least good at the rythum game. A very challenging mode, if you love that genre, you gonna love Haruka's career.
