Sunborn's Yuzhong Claims His New Game Is a Classic 'Boy Meets Girl' Romance — But Players Point Out the Boy Meets Someone Else's Girl While You Watch

Sunborn Network founder Yuzhong (羽中) dropped three letters — BMG, short for "Boy Meets Girl" — during an interview about his studio's new game Reverse Collapse: Codename Bakery Girl, hoping to brand it as a classic romance experience. Instead, it detonated a fresh round of mockery on NGA, because players quickly realized: the "Boy" isn't you, and the "Girl" doesn't love you either.

Gaming media outlet Game Research Society (游戏研究社) recently published a dev interview for Reverse Collapse that explicitly labels the game as a BMG story. The original poster shared two screenshots alongside their commentary, summing it up in one word: "peak comedy." The screenshots capture the dev team's apparent confidence in this narrative framing — but the comment section wasn't buying any of it.

The comment section immediately deconstructed the absurdity of this BMG label. One user cut right to the bone: "'Boy' never implied it was you by default — aren't Raymond and Daiyan a classic BMG too?" The top reply doubled down: "Raymond meeting Daiyan IS the textbook boy meets girl story." In other words, the game absolutely has a BMG plot — but the protagonist of that romance is an NPC named Raymond, not the player character. Another comment marked as "the canon answer" distilled it perfectly: "boy meets girl ≠ girl loves the boy." The roasts kept coming: "The 'boy' in BMG? That's not you" and "You're just a camera — no balls, no face, and your legs don't even work. Consider it charity that they let you watch Raymond and Daiyan's BMG story at all."

What made this thread even juicier was the historical whiplash buried in the comments. One player noted with bewilderment: "Wait, how did the narrative completely flip? I remember people saying Raymond and Daiyan were the one true pairing, and the Commander was basically a cyber slave owner." The community's attitude toward Raymond has done a full 180 — from sympathetic love interest to the most hated character in the franchise. This reversal itself is a saga worth following.

Never ones to let a good drama go to waste, the community piled on further. Someone held up VanillaWare's newly released Unicorn Overlord (圣兽之王) as the real "2D chibi done right" — pointing to its polished animation as what genuine BMG storytelling looks like. And then came the psychological deep-dive: "The entire Sunborn staff is probably role-playing and shipping their own characters. Bakery is Yuzhong's passion project — what if the male lead is literally his self-insert?" Only on NGA does product criticism evolve into a full-on Freudian analysis of the studio head.
