Those of you who believe Hanako would never, ever cheat are gravely distorting Hanako's character, overestimating her kindness, and under estimating the effects of her trauma. Hanako is so lonely and love-starved that she will take affection wherever she can find it; for this reason she is the one ...

Didn't some one say that Miki and Misha was originally men to have their own paths but it was cut? I know Misha did, not sure about Miki. But anyways, that picture would've been quite an interesting H-scene. Wonder what the context could be. Misha was never intended to have her own path. Miki on th...

I sometimes wish the game didn't start so soon before graduation. It seems a shame that everyone only gets about a year together before being kicked out into the real world. But I guess the devs didn't have a choice. Everyone had to be over 18 if they were going to be able to do the sex scenes. I t...

Part 6 I wake up feeling horrible and I just want to die. I've been getting headaches for a while now, but this is the worst one so far. I feel sick all over. I scrunch my eyes … or rather my eye, closed in an attempt to force myself to go back to sleep, but it's no use. With no other options, I dra...

Anyway, as far as other speculation goes, does anyone wonder what Hanako would likey do with herself after graduation if she hadn't connected with Hisao? I worry that someone in her emotional state would have a tough time making it in the world. She probably has to leave Japan. Basically like Kino ...

Since it seems Hisao's checkup will take a while, I decide to give myself to music. I pull out my MP4 player and absentmindedly search for a track to reflect my surprisingly good mood today. Hm. “Spanish Flea” will do the trick. It was hard to achieve, but I've managed to got myself a ten minute lo...

Shizune's route was painfully long (the best part was... Uh, "comforting" Misha). Lilly's route was pleasantly long (also carried most feels and I still cry every time I hear the music box melody). Rin's route was awkwardly long (But in a awkward in a good way, just like Rin). Funny that above stat...

...i wonder if that will sound more coherent tomorrow when i'm not severely sleep deprived and rehash the argument to someone else. I doubt it. I'm wide awake now and it doesn't sound the least bit coherent to me. I feel like i should throw something sharp at you. Repeating arguments guest poster p...

I doubt it. I'm wide awake now and it doesn't sound the least bit coherent to me.

Without gameplay Katawa Shoujo would need a highly adaptive narrative with dozens of more arcs than it actually has to count as a video game. As is, it's a book with multiple endings. It's a good one, but just a book. It's not a game now, but if it didn't change anything at all except gave you more...

No. You can't do anything different, it's always turning the page of a story and occasionally selecting which section of the story is canon out of multiple possibilities. *snip* trying to involve a player and get said player to project onto Hisao wouldn't work since Hisao ultimately makes his own d...

Putting something that isn't a video game up against real video games designed as such is going to hurt it. What makes it not a video game? No interactivity. All we do is turn the page, every action taken is Hisao's action. Sure we can choose to read multiple outcomes when Hisao is considering some...

What makes it not a video game?

It seems off to a good start so far.
