Katawa Shoujo Forums

Shizune had an oral scene (that was subsequently cut). Lilly was too conservative for that sort of thing, Hanako is Hanako, and Rin's were already planned out.

Thanks, that's as expected then, makes for good comic relief after the pretty heavy scenes beforehand. ^_^

Shizune's oral scene was replaced with her power play where she binds your hands, I suspect?

Year? Hell, I'll settle for getting through the month alive and sane. :p 4LS shenanigans are, as always, [classified information].

I think "oh god what" sums things up pretty well.

Comic Relief? I thought it was the most realistic H-scene I'd ever seen in VNs for - in Hivemind's words - "inexperienced teens trying something new for the first time"

Hrm, yes. But it took the heavy-heartedness out of emi's story before that. Seeing her in a wheelchair nearly broke me apart, so this really worked well to ease that up a bit. Hence I thought it was intentionally inserted there, didn't quite think it actually replaced another scene, even.

Anyhow, sorry, don't want to drag the thread offtopic.

Seeing as this turned out to be a beautiful piece in story and visual aspects will you guys create another game? Involving these characters or something new? The characters just were so amazing and I feel as if Emi in my eyes is seriously one of the most memorable characters in general. I'd love for there to be a second game as I said before involving these characters or even brand new material. As long as it's coming from you guys

From the FAQ:

Q: Will there be a fandisc, sequel, or prequel to Katawa Shoujo?
A: No. There will be no other work in any way related to Katawa Shoujo.

Note that this does not mean we won't create another game(s), just that any we do make wouldn't be related to KS in any way.

that really is a shame, as in it's own unique way KS really has found a way to become more than just a joke where 99.9% of all other ideas like this end up petering out long before completion of even a rough sketch of how a game would work, let alone seeing the light of day as a fully finished, polished product.

Don't you think that you made Emi a little too overly sensitive about her dad considering how long ago the accident was? I mean it seems a bit extreme that after 8 years she is still traumatized enough to not even be able to tell her boyfriend of her dad's fate.

Four words: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
It's a hell of a thing to get, people who suffer from it often never truly get over it (ergo, the "crazy" War Veterans. they have PTSD and their minds never fully left the battlefield)

Is the school they attend to a copy of a real place or was it created for the purpose of the story?

Yamaku is entirely fictional.

Hmm ... maybe I'm going off topic ... and showing signs of ignorance ... but do such places for disabled people, where they can come to terms with their condition and learn how to live the life or manage everyday routines, exits?

They do. There are schools (and other institutions) for disabled, and even schools specially for blind, or deaf people.

I realized soon after making the post that it's not really something that I have the right to be questioning.
