Re: Breaking Shoujo: The Meth Route *Updated 5/28/14*

Please accept a comment on this otherwise nicely-written narrative… I find it hard to suspend disbelief here because Japan (while often alcohol- and/or nicotine-suffused) has extremely tough drug laws and anti-drug culture. For example, here's a link to a relatively temperate and rather informative ...

Re: If it were real!

This is from the experience of having dated young ladies very similar in personality profile to our favourite Yamaku girls. I've not been comfortable dating Lilly-types, have lasted longer with Emi-types but not much longer, have survived Hanako-types and Misha-types, hung out with Rin-types and Mik...

Re: What would you have done if you made the game?

It's a question I would normally ask somebody if I wanted some criticism. Oh, the title. So...Not, you know, the actual content of the post which did not actually criticize the game in any way? Do you always judge things entirely by the most immediate and obvious aspect? :? If so, you may be seriou...

Re: Which ending do you consider to be the most canon?

Nobody seriously thinks a harem ending is even remotely possible for the game. Not a single person. Don't pretend that you do. Well, that 'unshown harem ending' option is logically impossible, since if it weren't shown, it couldn't be canon. Duh. Also, if nobody can seriously think so (since logica...

Only the Lilly Neutral-End might allow that. :D

I have to admit I don't understand most of this piece, so I've refrained from making substantive comments of any kind.

Re: Pairing the Spares?

Hideaki is clearly younger than 15-16, or he is physically stunted. Or he could just be small for his age. You know, a thing that happens with a lot of people? Also, wasn't it stated somewhere in the VN that Akira is 24/25-ish? In Act 4 of Lilly's route, the Akira/Hisao conversation reveals that Ak...

Re: Pairing the Spares?

I mean, I thought Akira x Hanako was a big enough age gap... (And by the age / 2 + 7 (or, in RPN, which is superior, age 2 / 7 +) standard, even that is creepy - 19.5 is the youngest Akira can date without it being creepy, which is why when I attempted to write it, I had Hanako out of university fo...

Re: Pairing the Spares?

Age of consent in Japan is 13, but I'm finding claims that in every prefecture except Nagano (and this relationship would occur in Saitama and possibly Miyagi prefectures), there's prefectural laws setting it at 18. So, basically, the 13 year AOC in Japan is simply setting a lower bound that in pra...

I've been using KS examples when teaching Theory of Knowledge—how do people know stuff when their senses or perceptual apparatus don't work 'normally'? :D
