I also got hit just now. Didn't know that was a thing till it happened. For me it was offering collected Gifts; has 300+ of the +3 Affection Gift and started playing my own hentaiclicker game. Well I just have to wait now I guess...
I go an idea for energy post story: Great Pachinko
10 energy for a single game
100 energy for the ten games
Or: Make a new pachinko just for energy, make it pay out, e.g. money lowest 5k to highest 100k.
