Time to transfer school and meet Hanako.

And... I wonder if you could tell us more about the school, maybe starting with how many similarities the real-life school have with Yamaku High in the game? ^^"

You guys are kinda late. A lot of us Brown kids have been following this game for at least 3 or 4 years. I know the guy who took the pictures, and I lived in the same building that Hanako lived in freshman year. There is not a single place used in the game that is connected or adjacent to each other in real life, so it's kinda hilarious to see where you teleport to between areas.

Also, there's tons of subtle humor that you'd only get if you were a Brown student.

You people made me register because of this thread.

Yamaku/Brown U student here. Ask me anything.

Is it really that easy to sneak into the girls' dorms?

Damn right it is. The non-frat or sorority dorms are all co-ed. It's as easy as a walk down the hall, and there's no curfew...

Huh. Are all the staff also as awkward/nosy as they are in KS?

Not especially. I know a few teachers who look and act like Mutou actually. However, it's not a school for the disabled and as such, the staff doesn't keep tabs on the students' health and personal lives.

Who is currently living in Hisao's dorm?

Hisao's dorm room is, as far as I can tell, not a Brown dorm room. It looks like a hotel or dorm room somewhere in Asia. His hallway is actually part of one of the administrative buildings on campus I believe.

Ah, I see, great, then!
Is the medical building in Brown similar to the one in Yamaku?

Well, the hallway is at Brown somewhere, a friend of mine recognizes it. However, I don't think I've actually been there before. The actual medical building is in an old re-tooled mansion, so the examination rooms are not nearly so modern looking as Nurse's office at Yamaku. Also, I don't think you could just waltz in there and have someone run a checkup on you unfortunately...

Oh? What a shame, I could imagine someone like Emi running down there.... anyway, I have another question.
Is the picture on the highway of the classrooms really in Brown?

It is my undying shame to admit that it is not. If you look carefully in the scenes where you are on the first floor looking up the ramp, like when you first meet Mutou, you can see that where that painting would be is instead a painting of a checkerboard pattern. That's what's really there. I've been toying with the idea of pulling a prank by covering that painting with a sheet or something with the face on it.

That makes me wonder about something else, the Art club and the track, are they in similar states in Brown?
