Spoiler for plot:

It's basically about Seiji being a total prick. He is a rich doctor's kid while Minami lives in poverty with both of his parents dead, but since he's always giving his best, both Hikari and Sora fell in love with him. Seiji could not stand this, so when he found out that Hikari and Minami started dating he uses Hypnotism to switch roles with Minami, by messing with his Memory. In Minami's mind it is Seiji who lives in poverty in that dirty apartment and it is Seiji who hugged her on the roof of the school. So Hikari is pretty confused and sad about Minami's recent behaviour because as far as she is concerned they started dating and shortly after he treats her like shit for apparently no reason.

Everytime you hear that cellphone jingle it is Seiji asserting his control of Minami's mind and there is another melody to initiate his suicide sequence. How many bad ends with Minami jumping from the roof are there? A lot.

In the true end Sora manages to break Minami free of Seiji's control so they can foil his scheme, Happy Harem for Minami with Seiji dead. You also find out that Sora has always loved Minami but because she could not act on her feelings she got engaged to that fat bus driver at her company in order to forget about Minami. That didn't work out too well for her. Since she gave away her Virginity to someone else she actually WANTS Minami to rape her as punishment, even in the good end she doesn't want affectionate sex. She wants him to do her like an animal because that's what she deserves.

That's basically the gist of it.

And yes, I agree. The happy ending somehow felt just right.
