When talking about that ideal, many people forgot that steel has to be in somewhere, although some men do want you to forget that. Cool to friends, harsh to enemies. Right now, Shizune is just harsh to people in general. Her hard head is the trait being played up. She acknowledges it, but honest to ...

I appreciate her tenacity, but her stubbornness has led to some issues, which she also acknowledges. If it's toned down a bit, she can be a more steely version of the Yamato Nadeshiko.

That's probably the most different depiction of Hanako's scars I've seen, after the various versions in the game itself. Older look doesn't hurt.

I am getting old.

Yet is the only route where Hisao asks the lady out without making a ass of himself, he justs asks and she says yes. Shizune is the only one of the five girls who actively wants to make friends. As Hisao managed not to get turned off by her strong will, she's more than happy to hang out together. I...

Thank you! Started to play out of curiosity. Was prepared for various amounts of wierdness, but not for honest and observant drama. How very sneaky of you! Which scenes resonated and why made me ponder. Really had to post here before i realise i got worked up so much about a highschool romance :) T...

The only depressing thing for me is I have played just about every VN and eroge there is. Nothing is as good as this one, not even close. 'Ever 17' & 'Yume Miru Kusuri: A Drug That Makes You Dream' were recently tied for first IMO before I played this one. Now they seem woefully childish and pathet...

Hisao's personality actually have subtle changes according to who he hooks up with. As for Lily, her route actually touched on the most number of girls: herself, Hanako and Shizune. She is a semi-messiah, as I see it.

She had 3 endings, so some smart fellow designated the "good, neutral, and bad" system.

One thing I could never identify with Hisao is his ability to talk to himself for so long.

Shizune is one stubborn girl. She has to want to change in order to do so. Her ability to be influenced by others is limited at best.

The interesting dynamic extends to the observation that Hanako was already secretly nursing some resentment over Lily's fussing over her by the time Hisao came to Yamaku. Given how Hanako is like, Lily never received the honest feedback that she demanded from Hisao in her own route (although she had...

KS helps jolt people out of their comfort zone. For the fortunate crowd, it forces them to evaluate certain assumptions. For the not-so-fortunate, it tells them that they are not alone (as Selim has seen for himself).

Parents are family. Nitpicker.

And it's always seemed to me her want to please was born out of obligation more than desire.

Aye. Sometimes, it's hard to tell what the girl really wants, and she wants us to be honest with her. Double standards....
