Re: Hanako's Broken Heart Club

You can be intelligent but not academic - however, the world still recognizes academic success or having such big balls and confidence to be able to bluster your way to success. For every high school drop-out success story there's thousands sitting in trailer parks shooting at a wrecked car.

Hell, her only friend is deaf.
It's not uncommon for Deaf people to be told to tone down their animated, expressive mannerisms by hearing people.

Re: Emi ending (spoilers for days)

I am always nervous of misreading signals and making a move at the wrong time. If you look at Hisao, he is too. Emi has to tell him on the rooftop to kiss her for the first time. Knowing you're both down is almost indescribable, because a huge barrier (real or imagined) is removed. I also found thei...

Re: Emi ending (spoilers for days)

re There's that, and also the fact that, yes, the scene was extremely forced and sudden. This was likely intentional and serves to make Hisao's assertion that him and Emi have fallen into a cycle of sex-as-distraction from emotional issues more believable, so that it doesn't seemingly come out of n...

AMUSING: He'd be selling his ass on the streets of Roppongi to buy heart medication.
MORE LIKELY: He'd become a hikikomori and withdraw deeper into his depression.

Re: Waitaminute... Misha HAS to be bisexual.

The vast majority of people do not rate at 0 or 6, but at 1 or 5. So is Misha a 5? Seems like a good guess there. Saying she HAS TO BE bisexual is severely oversimplifying a complex issue. I was talking to one of my pan friends about this sort of thing in the car yesterday. Without getting into per...

Incompatible with the obsession to know as many details as possible, to have a definitive set of information, Wiki-style.

Re: When did misha start to like girls and who does she suit

You've already worked out what the "deeper meanings" are for each possibility. It feels like the discussion is being prolonged for its own sake. Are we really this short of topics now?

Re: When did misha start to like girls and who does she suit

How many threads does it need, though? You can argue this back and forth forever and you will never have a definitive answer. I'm curious as to what you're expecting to get out of this anyway; are you expecting some hidden deeper meaning to reveal itself based on whether she is a lesbian/bi/pan/some...

Tedious, isn't it? I see a lot of it in society in general, people endlessly ruminating on whether other people might be gay or not like it really fucking matters to them.

Re: Hanako's Broken Heart Club

And, I'm old enough now that it's not socially acceptable for me to not have a clue how to date someone (never having done so), so at this point, I'm living vicariously through a couple of fictional Japanese girls. There's plenty of advice out there on how to do date people, it's not *that much* di...

Re: Waitaminute... Misha HAS to be bisexual.

That's a somewhat misleading name then, because "sex", based on what I'm seeing after quick search, refers to the biological/physical state of being male or female, which apparently isn't what pan people are looking for. Calling it "panSEXual" then doesn't really work in the way you'd expect. Stop ...
