The Girl Who Stands Behind does a good job of already improving some of the weaknesses of The Missing Heir; with the Think command generally helping push the player forward better than the Remember command of the previous game's amnesia setup. There's more flexibility in investigation options as well, surely tied into the Super Famicom introduced Player Evaluation after the credits. Add in the intrigue over the way a ghost story rumor haunts the entire cast, and it became obvious why The Girl Who Stands Behind in particular is the fan favorite of the series.
