Thanks for the Referencing Evidence But Junichi Does Not Come Back To Japan In Seiren And At That Time He & His Wife Haruka Still Lives In Great Britain.
PPPS: Besides, Might I Ask Where Is Sae And Tsukasa ?
You think I am wrong but I think that I am Right Because Tsuneki might be micro mixed or 1/5 mixed And Other Minor Evidences.
Facepalm! Jesus Panties! Just because Haruka won contest Miss Santa (twice!) and she is a school Idol and 1/4 British, you think that Tsuneki is a same 100% copy. It's a stupid logic! There the hell your evidence?!

Might I Ask WHO IS HIDDEN UNKOWN PARENTS OF TSUNEKI, WHETHER THE ORIGINAL NAME OF TSUNEKI REALLY TACHIBANA, WHERE IS AI THE OLDER SISTER OF IKUO, WHERE IS SAE AND TSUKASA ? BESIDES, The Only Evidence Is Keiko the Friend Of Kaoru Becomes the Friend Of Tsuneki And Those Two Weired Upperclasswomans Of Kibitou Tea Club -Yuzuki And Hiba Becomes The Upperclass Womans Of Kyouko And EC Club.

It's just references for fans, man. Just easter eggs. Keep fun and watching.
You guys need to stop thinking linier.
There's no evidence that each arc starts solely on one arc from Amagami-ss. For all we know Kyouko's story is happening after Rhihoko's arc because of the similarities. There's also a chance Kyouko's story is happening after Ai's arc because she's into swimming. It all depends on the easter eggs.

First of all, very nice post. It's evident you like Amagami a lot and the effort you put in the post is admirable. You are worthy of respect.
Also, now that people is bringing connections between Amagami and Seiren; I just realized it, but this girl from the Public Morals Committee
Has the same surname that Risa Kamizaki from Amagami (even the same kanji, mind you), so I don't know if it was a coincidence or not, but they can be related.
Okay so idk if anyone noticed or really cares, but I believe Seiren proves who Junichi ends with... Haruka! In episode four when the committee underling (cant remember name sorry) interupts Shoichi and Tsuneki she meantions the pool shed and getting dirty. Is it just me or does this coincide with their story? Please correct me if im wrong.
Nice observation. Really enjoying the elaboration and discussion here. :)
Timeline wise, maybe I don't really pay attention to it. I'm more interested in how Amagami and Seiren related. It's more likely Seiren story is Amagami route-agnostic.
EpicCh33se said: It's interesting how Seiren and Amagami are in the same universe and even share characters. I wanted to know how far apart they were in terms of time.
First, we have to figure out when Amagami takes place. It's never explicitly stated in the show(s), and I haven't played the game (if the time is stated in the game, please tell me), but we can pinpoint a specific timeframe based on the technologies shown.
Amagami's Timeframe
Here's why I think Amagami takes place in the late 90's or early 00's.
Amagami SS Episode 3:
As you can see in the background, the Tachibana home has a CRT tv and a VHS player.
From the same episode, Haruka and Hibiki are having a conversation over the phone. Haruka is using a wireless home phone. Wireless phones are seen periodically throughout the show, but never a cell phone. Hibiki is seen using a rotary phone. From what I can tell, rotary phones phased out by the 1980's, but Amagami can't take place then because of other pieces of technology present in the show. Perhaps Hibiki's family is old fashioned?
Amagami SS+ Episode 11:
There seems to be a computer over there. Damn is it bulky.
Amagami SS+ Episode 9:
There's another CRT, and a computer that does look like it's from the early 2000s. The speakers look like they came with the computer too.
A radio CD player. Those were pretty popular back then.
Junichi's video camera
Amagami SS+ OP:
Amagami SS Episode 12:
Junichi is shown to be fond of video recording, especially during Sae's arc. He carries around his camcorder with him. Doesn't seem to be a camcorder from recent years.
It records in 4:3.
Amagami SS+ Episode 10:
In SS+, Junichi seems to have gotten a new camera. This one has a screen and can record in 16:9. Makes sense, as some time has passed.
Amagami SS+ Episode 9:
It's important to note that his camcorder can record onto cassette tapes.
After digging around a lot, I've found that the Sony Hi8 cameras are pretty similar. They have a similar design, and can record onto tapes. The DCR-TRV series is one that was out in the early 2000s. For example, the DCR-TRV355E came out in 2003 and looks like this:
It's not the same exact camera, but close enough. I had a hard time finding one with 6x zoom.
Epilogues
Amagami SS Episode 4:
In the Haruka epilogue, which takes place 10 years after the events of her arc, their home can be seen with what seems like a flat screen TV. If Amagami took place in 2000 (just to give an example), having a flat screen by 2010 is a fair assumption.
Amagami SS+ Episode 12:
It's not known how long after Junichi's proposal did he and Haruka get married, but it doesn't matter when in the context of this particular camera. There doesn't seem to be any camera named FO5 55, but it's too similar to Canon's EOS 55, which was called that in Japan but EOS 50 overseas. They even look similar. http://www.mir.com.my/rb/photography/hardwares/classics/eos/eoscamera/EOSElanIIE5055/eos50EElanIIEmap.htm
The EOS 55 came out in 1995-ish, with an updated model that came out in 2000 (although under a different model name).
Amagami SS+ Episode 8:
Strangely enough, 8 years after Sae's arc, Junichi is still using these camcorders. You'd assume that there would be newer forms of camcorders out by 2005-2010.
-----------------------------------
So now that we know when Amagami takes place, let's connect it to Seiren with the information that we currently know.
We know that Shouichi's friend Ikuo is Ai Nanasaki's younger brother.
But how much older is Ai than Ikuo?
Well...
Amagami SS Episode 14:
Ai wanted to give Ikuo an Inago Mask belt as a present in Amagami. This means that at that time, Ikuo must have been young enough to want something like that, as well as arrogant enough to decline it because it was an outdated model. His profile says that he was quite a prankster back then, so it makes sense.
Ikuo is a second year in Seiren. Assuming that he was maybe 5-7 in Amagami, it's safe to assume that Seiren takes place 10-12 years after Amagami, meaning around 2008-2014.
*gasp* Perhaps we will see cell phones this time?!
Some more "evidence":
Ikuo's profile says that his hobby is to surf the net. While this doesn't really contribute to a specific timeframe, it kind of restricts it to being after 2004, realistically.
Tooru's profile says that she is really good at games, and often competes in tournaments. While video game tournaments aren't anything new, they're a lot more common recently than back then.
This does make me wonder that if Junichi were to return in Seiren as a minor character, who would he be with? It'd be cool to see Amagami characters as adults too.
As of now, I've yet to find evidence concerning Makoto and Risa's connection as sisters...
--------------------
I spent way too long on something this mundane...
Here, I'll be updating this post with important information uncovered as the episodes go on, from me as well as other people. This includes other evidence and insight.
