Thanks to all for the kind words! I wasn't sure what the reaction would be to Noriko here, but I'm glad the feedback has been generally positive. Granted, some of her biggest detractors haven't chimed in yet, so I might still take a hit or two, for which I was, and still am, totally prepared :). Goi...

Also, since the club is looking at different material all the time, perhaps that material should be mentioned in the title - kinda like how many of the longer stories get their new chapters and update date added to the title. I second this idea. Title should be something like "Yamaku Book Club (Now...

"O-okay," Hanako says quietly. I'm not sure what's going on with her right now, and part of me wishes I could stay. However, it's probably best that I take Lilly's hint after all and leave. "Okay, then. Give me a call when you've decided. I know you and Hanako can handle things from here, so I'll ta...

Since I finished the first draft of my next chapter a couple hours ago, I went ahead and started reading this. I'm surprised nobody's posted about it yet, but here are my observations based on a quick read: Yeah, the premise has been done to death, but I thought it was presented well. The writing wa...

A lot of small things, but most of all this line: ["Hello, Mom and Dad,"] I greet them with a smile, while signing for Shizune. They briefly glance at each other in surprise at the sight of me using sign language, but look on in stoic silence. ["I'd like to introduce my girlfriend, Shizune Hakamich...

the prankster thing... it's implied that she's quite a bit more experienced at pool than she claims, really. I think this can be chalked up to either self-deprecation, lack of confidence or simple humility. I could definitely see Hanako as being internally snarky, though, given her dim view of most...

I think the main point wouldn't be to do with our perceptions of the two, but with Hanako's self-perception vs her perception of the other as they come together at Hisao's grave… :) Yeah, my comment wasn't directed at anything in the context of the story. Poetic license, unreliable narrator, seeing...

Not canon, but there is this: http://www.katawa-shoujo.com/secret/santa12/src/02.It_was_all_a_dream.Mike_Inel.Fink.jpg Not canon indeed, but I confess that the fact that it was drawn by Mike Inel has given me a certain... bias in its favor. :oops: Well, sure, insofar as all the girls seem to have s...

Continuing to enjoy this (this might be my favorite arc thus far -- really enjoying Storyteller Hanako!), and wanted to chime in on this discussion: Am I the only one, though, who's noticed the resemblance between (Hanako and Iwanako)? Nope. Leaty had to actually get Iwanako to change her appearance...

I think that falling back on the idea that Lilly would only fall in love with her because of her blindness is in itself antithetical, because as we see in the VN itself, Lilly can see faces, and whatever she happens to get her hands on. Hanako might not see it that way, but if the relationship ever...

I completely missed this whole cycle, but fortunately the piece was short enough to read quickly. I've already mentioned that I don't care much to read pre-full release stories, and here we have a pre-Act One story. However, since it's written by one of the devs, that makes everything about it fair ...

She talks about him twice, IIRC, both in Act 1. The first time is in "Things You Can Do", the second in "An Aesthetics".

And yes, welcome to the boards!

I remember that one. It wasn't really bad, but there were a few things that put me off: One was the cliché "The offspring are younger copies of their parents" trope, sharing even the same disabilities in some cases. Get a bit overused in this story. The other thing was probably intentional, but the...

I wouldn't dare use (or even ask to use) a character in someone else's ongoing fic anyway, but she'd be up near the top of my list if I could. I don't know about Leaty, but in my case at least, a number of people have asked to use Kagami in various works of their own *nods* I can see why. Kagami is...

*If Developments was in parallel continuity with Mean Time to Breakdown , it would probably be Momomi, but that's neither here nor there... From what I've seen of Momomi, I'm not sure they'd get along that well. She's somewhat too abrasive for Lilly's tastes, at least outwardly. If they could get p...
