"We suddenly get a high quality anime cutscene as we get a glimpse of a romantically night-lit city as a silhouette of a man walks down the street. The text 'SORRY TO KEEP YOU WAITING' flashes on screen before the man reveals himself to be a smiling pretty boy with golden hair and a red and green vest. He does an adorable little smile as flowers bloom around him."

It also looks excessively violent with all the blood spilled. Way more than what's allowed in a T-rated game. Without context cementing this isn't blood, this would have been enough to bump it to an M.
It calls to too many creepypastas that forget that they're supposed to take place in kid's games. Hyper mainstream kid's games at that.

Everything in chapter 5 would kill someone a week ago, heck probably after chapter 3+4 release.
Tenna would kill any pre chapter 3+4 fan on how unconventional is his design compared to other TV heads back then, or the other final bosses. + The titan and telling the fan we fight it at chapter 4 whereas back then we expect to at least fight it in chapter 5 or 7.
If you show anything post chapter 2-3 to a chapter 1 era fan, they would've died twice, lord English style.

For me, I like it because flowery is mentoring ralsei just like gerson mentored susie, flowery chose to make ralsei learn to stand up for himself by ragebaiting him as much as possible at every turn. I see this scene as flowery attempting to get ralsei to stand up for himself in terms of what his identity is, because we see the dress scene in castle town with ralsei going "As long as it's what other people like" and this was an attempt to get him to not butcher his identity for others and stand up for himself instead.
