Re: Shizune Arc (misha, jigoro)

Justice is due consequence for all actions, period. No country on Earth has real justice, mostly because people can't stomach dealing out what's deserved. But that's an entirely different topic. You kinda failed to actually say anything with that though... Its subjective what is justice and what is...

Re: Shizune Arc (misha, jigoro)

Just a quick answer (lack of time): Here, take a look at "child development tracker", to get a feeling what a six year old is like: http://www.pbs.org/parents/childdevelopmenttracker/six/ Human beings, regardless of age, can't be reduced to an online "development tracker". Hell, ...

Re: Shizune Arc (misha, jigoro)

The answer is simple - Shizune has agency, and she makes her own decisions. Reconciliation may be possible, but only if she allows it. Someone determined to get her to communicate, even if only using "positive" methods still denies her agency, and thus her personhood. There is a reasonabl...

Re: Shizune Arc (misha, jigoro)

Xanatos, stop attempting to argue with him. You're pointlessly wasting energy. And why do you think so? Just becasue you have another opinion? So far i agreed multiple times with some of you or stated that it's at least plausible. http://i.imgur.com/tRfZv.jpg He's autobiography isn't even finished,...

Re: Shizune Arc (misha, jigoro)

Who's worse here, you assume he doesn't or me assuming he does? :p What if the author actually intended that Hisao doesn't think about it, or he didn't thought about it himself? Otherwise it's a bad style of the author. Again, i prefer to judge what's there instead of judging the story i made up my...

Re: Shizune Arc (misha, jigoro)

Just a quick answer too a single point because i'm too tired at the moment. I'm assuming that you don't have a kid. I hate to go all Jigoro on you, but please refrain from stating that a father can (and should) browbeat his daughter into talking to him. That's not what i meant. Browbeating his daugh...

Re: Shizune Arc (misha, jigoro)

Thanks for the info. wow, that sounds heavy :!:
Of course, the argument that Hisao and Shizune are too busy studying to go on dates would probably be more convincing if the two weren't shown to still put a crapload of time into student council duties
True.

Re: Shizune Arc (misha, jigoro)

How explicit does or should a story be? Should it need to explain each part in great detail to ensure you understand, or should it let you fill in a few blanks yourself and trust you, the reader, by now to understand how the characters think? But that isn't a minor thought or feeling. We read a lot...

Re: Shizune Arc (misha, jigoro)

I know that it's common in anime that characters have unnatural hair colors, i usually wouldn't mind, but katawa shoujo is highly realistic, it's mentioned multiple times how strange mishas hair color is and we can even see a photo of her with her natural hair color in lillys arc. But it seems like...

Re: Shizune Arc (misha, jigoro)

Actually, I have a pet theory that Kenji is a fantasy-prone personality who has developed an extraordinarily detailed scenario that allows him to deal (or at least believe he can deal) with women in general. In other words, paranoia isn't necessary to explain Kenji. I have a theory that Kenji is a ...

Re: Shizune Arc (misha, jigoro)

You're doing it again. If diagnosing people with autism is wrong, it's also wrong to diagnose them with narcissism. Using a few specific instances, I could probably diagnose Hisao with sociopathic megalomania, with only a slight massaging of the data. But it wouldn't be useful, informative, or cons...

Re: Shizune Arc (misha, jigoro)

So? It's a theory of only two personality types, it's about the chance of developing hearth problems. Yes, Jigoro is Type A, therefore he is more likely to develop hearth problems - According to the Theory. Type A and B are supposed as contrasts. It's really not hard to guess that someone like Jigor...

Re: Shizune Arc (misha, jigoro)

@ ProfAllister Thanks, that was interesting. How can he earn money? Easy - he's an Alpha. If you have talent and the right kind of assertiveness, you can be a complete asshole and be successful in spite of it. Some would even argue that you're successful because you're a complete asshole, but that's...

Re: Shizune Arc (misha, jigoro)

If you wouldn't call it rape, don't call it rape. People have different viewpoints of what can be called rape and what can be considered consensual, and sometimes it's a borderline case. I know that hisao enjoyed it, thus i wouldn't call it rape, but shizune didn't knew that beforehand. However, i ...

Re: Shizune Arc (misha, jigoro)

KS is not "highly realistic". It's just more realistic than a standard fantasy anime. Just more realistic then a standard fantasy anime? Fantasy? Tell me any fantasy elements in KS beside unnatural hair colors? It's fiction, but it has a realistic setting. There isn't anything like magic ...
