Revisional Differences#

Three months after the original release of the game, came a slightly updated version, titled Magical Date: Sotsugyou Kokuhaku Daisakusen.

Gameplay#

A new minigame was introduced: Magical Quiz. As its name indicates, it is a quiz show-esque game.
The game's story was completely changed; instead of having a Christmas party as the main goal, it is now a graduation ceremony. As such, the game's dialogue was changed appropriately.
Costumes were introduced for the seasonal shooting events.
