Random Events

Besides scheduled festivals, you can participate in random events with the villagers. These special events are typically one-time experiences that give you a backstory about those who live in Forgotten Valley.

Some events are specific to a chapter in the game's life; if you move to the next chapter without seeing the event, then you might have missed the event entirely in your current playthrough of the game. Some chapter-specific events can be seen in Chapter 7 (heaven mode), but any event involving Nina must be viewed in Chapter 1.

(I'm going through the videos captured during my JP playthrough, but I didn't get everything! I'm missing non-Art path events for Child's Growth and Suddent Visitor. If you've seen those and have a screen shot + description, let me know!)
