About anniversary conversations #8041

So, I decided to spoil myself and read Monika's 5- and 10-years anniversary monologues. In a way, it left me surprised -- don't you think they make Monika seem rather... distant? Like, she is very matter-of-fact and unsure about the occasions. Asking the player if they regret spending years with her doesn't help, especially considering that she was ok with being their wife by 3-years mark, and told them she'd stopped worrying about stability of the relationship by 4-years mark. Also, the line: "My love for you is pure, unlike those real girls who just want things from you!" just seems out of character. If anything, doesn't she think of herself as a real girl, too?

Yes, and it also just makes Monika seem like a "not like other girls" or a "pick me" girl Not so hot-

Plus, Monika justifies herself by saying the other girls weren't real and didn't love the player unlike herself.

Those are ooooold. Right now they are far away, so reworking them has low priority. But we do plan to, eventually (see #7324, #6707, #6586, #6169).

5 year anniversaries will be here next year, so we should prioritize adjusting them soon.
