White Wings is a mini Visual Novel released on Steam and published by Pureworks Japan in July, 2020 with console ports published by Moesoft Limited in November, 2023.Hiroshi Fujihara is the son of a famous writer mother and film director father. After a bitter divorce when he was 10 years old, he's since lived with his mother in a loveless home where his attempts to earn her recognition for any of his efforts is nothing but futile. One day during his senior year in high school, Hiroshi's mother orders him to resign from the basketball team (his one true passion) and attend supplementary classes for college preparation instead. Wanting to please his mother, he reluctantly obeys. That act, along with two chance encounters at his regular and preparatory schools would end up changing his life for better or worse depending on his choices in meeting Moe Miyazawa and Reika Fukihara.

"Well Done, Son" Guy: Hiroshi does his best to heed his mother's wishes so she'll recognize his progress and accomplishments, but that still isn't good enough for her.

Multiple Endings
 White Wings (Visual Novel) / int_1aa08f77
comment
Multiple Endings: Both heroines have a good and bad ending each. In Moe's bad ending, she commits murder-suicide with Hiroshi so no one else can have him. In Moe's good ending, she and Hiroshi are living happily in Tokyo and it's implied that Reika managed to escape her awful home life. In Reika's bad ending, she knows that Hiroshi's heart still belongs to Moe and commits suicide by jumping off the school roof while he can only watch. In Reika's good ending, she and Hiroshi have eloped to Kyushu and found a peaceful rural life together.

Poor Communication Kills
 White Wings (Visual Novel) / int_1c445e86
comment
Poor Communication Kills: The main conflict of the story happens as the result of all three of the main characters failing to communicate with each other. If Hiroshi had told Moe that he had already made plans to go to the festival with Reika before they began dating, told Reika at the festival that he already had a girlfriend, or outright cancelled with Reika after getting together with Moe, it would have saved all of the long-term pain they all go through. If Moe or Reika at any time had told each other the name of the boy they both liked before the story revealed them being best friends with each other, they could have talked it out then and there.

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Sayori Nakiri, the most popular girl at school until Moe transferred in, puts on the air of a nice girl but is secretly the one who has Megumi and Amane bully Moe so she can make a play for Tatsuhiko, making her the true Alpha Bitch of the trio. Tatsuhiko immediately sees through it and shoots her down because of her actions when she tries to confess to him.

comment
Bittersweet Ending: Even the good endings aren't wholly happy courtesy of what happens to the heroine not chosen. In Moe's ending, it's implied Reika followed them to Tokyo and is stalking Hiroshi while working near his university as she can't let him go. In Reika's ending, they receive a photo of Moe marrying Tatsuhiko with her not looking very happy about it with Hiroshi wondering how she found their address to imply she did so to make him feel guilty.

Unrequited Love: Amane Naito has had feelings for Hiroshi for a few years, but he doesn't return her feelings and, in one of the few instances where he's able to take direct action, is able to let her down gently for fear of hurting her even more if he played along. Heavily implied for Moe in Reika's good ending when the two receive a photo of her at her wedding to Tatsuhiko but her eyes are completely devoid of happiness.
