Re: Yamaku Book Club (Now Reading: Ascent: An Emilouge)
I think this piece works well as manga, perhaps less well as traditional text. It's a nice heartwarming plot, how Hisao sements (oops, typo) his relationship with Emi with the climax of their relationship gaining Meiko's approval. It's metaphorically as well as literally ascent and descent, and Emi ...

That's just lovely, in a miniature slice of life way.

Re: Emi's End (updated: 12/8)
I'm really surprised by the reception. *grin* as a relatively junior member of the forum myself, I have to say that before I posted any fanfic, I read my way through the Library (well, more than half of the threads in this section) and the Ask thread under Public Discussion first. I took note of wh...

Re: Hanako's Broken Heart Club
Optimism isn't about hope, it's about expectation. Anyone in their right mind hopes for the best. An optimist expects the best. And in reality, unfortunately, that is a naive expectation. A pessimist expects the worst, and is as hopeless as the optimist is naive. A pragmatist, well, his expectation...

Re: What gender are most KS fans?
Usage The word queer was first used to mean ‘homosexual’ in the early 20th century: it was originally, and usually still is, a deliberately offensive and aggressive term when used by heterosexual people. In recent years, however, gay people have taken the word queer and deliberately used it in plac...

Re: What gender are most KS fans?
Christ on a cripple what happened?! is an actual version of that expression I have heard, which I mention because KS and cripples and funnies. Anyways, to answer, Ambivalent doesn't seem to realize that the word 'queer' has been reclaimed, and it got out of hand from there. If you want a real mess,...

Re: Hanako's Broken Heart Club
idealism is for children My good fried Emiya Shirou would disagree. No, but seriously, idealism isn't BAD so long as you can understand the difference between ideal and real. Struggling to reach an ideal is fine: expecting it to happen is naive. A revision then: Optimism is for children. An idealis...

Re: What gender are most KS fans?
I do, however, hold the position that while society uses language in various ways, we are free-willed enough to choose, or to attempt, to persuade others to use language in specific ways. That is what education is about, also poetry, and many other fields of human endeavour. Not all are so well-like...

Re: What gender are most KS fans?
Thus it is controversial and should be avoided as with all controversial things… I'm mostly talking about the colloquial definition though. Well, this forum is full of controversial things, and as the poet put it, 'tangled things, and texts and aching eyes / and dead is all the innocence of anger a...

Re: What gender are most KS fans?
Shushshushuhshush. It all depends on the connotation and area you live in. Where I live, calling someone gay or queer is rude, because it's, well, a very common insult. (I go to a very conservative school.) That said, it's all a bit of a misunderstanding because Zarys doesn't speak english as a fir...

Re: Random KS Discussion
This is what happens when people confuse legitimate resource allocation and bias-based discrimination. Our acquaintance appears to not realize that 'Katawa Shoujo Forums' is discriminatory by that definition, as is any label at all. A truly insane argument.Potato wrote:We're done here.

Re: Random KS Discussion
Also stuff like that would naturally lead to discrimination. It also demands space which some countries do not have much of and it will eat a large amount of money that comes from taxes. Its pointless and silly and will create discrimination. Why do you think it is remotely close to a good idea? Be...
