I wish I could say we spent the rest of the day relaxing, maybe, maybe lounging around the pool, skinning grapes and eating them. Is that some weird metaphor I don't get? Eating (or being fed) skinned (or peeled) grapes is seen as an excessive indulgence in the US, at the very least. Whenever someo...

Another great post, but I think I am a bit confused, how long after the festival did the last chapter takes place? You just HAD to ask that, didn't you? ¬_¬ You couldn't satisfy yourself with a vague "some time between Tanabata and the Festival," huh? Unfortunately for you, I already put all that t...

Not going to give a summary, because that defeats the point of experiencing it. Most fans of Hanako's route seem to like Lilly's route and vice-versa. This shouldn't be terribly surprising, as Hanako's route was partially written by Cpl_Crud and partially by Suriko, while Lilly's route was written e...

I wait patiently as the girl in front of me slowly makes her way down the stairs. She keeps a tight hold on the rail as she takes one ginger step at a time. It's a little awkward standing here with my hands full, but that's what I volunteered for. At the end of the day, Misha and Shizune got into th...

Well, first of all, thank you all for the kind words and compliments. Always nice to hear that your work is appreciated. That being said, feel free to speak up if something doesn't seem right or anything. Criticism is always welcome. With regard to updating, I've been keeping to a Thursday update sc...

The following morning, I enter the pool area to see Misha waiting for me, as cheerful as ever. [Hi, Hicchan!] She doesn't actually sign “Hicchan.” I don't have a sign name yet. It's something that has to be given to you. Technically, she's been calling me “new kid.” I guess that's my nickname for th...

Yeah, there was never going to be a Kenji or Misha route. This was never considered, except maybe as a joke. Tired of hearing this rumor circulate. Whoosh. Damn. A22 comes out of hiding to say I'm full of shit. It's almost flattering. :P Looked back at my sources, and I was clearly misremembering w...

The thing is, a Misha route doesn't make much sense given that she's, well, a lesbian , you know? Is that canon? Technically, no. What IS canon is that she is sexually attracted to Shizune . I's dropping spoiler tags from here on. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK! This subject has been discussed for pages upo...

If memory serves, the devs posted in the "Ask" thread that they had considered the possibility of Misha Route, Kenji route, etc., but ultimately decided that it was better to stick to the Original Source Material . So, regardless of how desirable ANY route would be, the Original Source argument veto...

The next few weeks seem to blur together. Misha keeps to her promise on pushing me. Whenever I start to get used to my routine, she makes me swim more, or learn a new stroke. She seems to have decided on not deciding on a swimsuit – she seems to randomly switch between the two whenever the mood stri...

Probably, but the devs won't allow such a thread. :? The devs won't allow such a thread because they are busy people with lives outside moderating the forums. The forums are a privilege and not a right. One could even call them a gift. End result: Keep it on topic and no one gets hurt. Additionally...

Well, after deciding to read this in between more important priorities a month or two ago, I've finally finished. (and I read the comments, too!) It obviously lacks the immediacy of your shorter works, but that's to be expected in long-form works. My biggest complaint is perhaps more a failing on my...

Watched the movie today. Family tradition to go out and watch a movie on Black Friday. Everyone was planning on Life of Pi or Skyfall, and Skyfall was sold out by the time we got there. Spouse had read the book, I hadn't. We both enjoyed the movie. Hadn't read the book myself, and spouse didn't reme...

Fox in socks To be honest, even the english version looks like it is barely a step over the teletubbie's language. Well, in fairness, Fox in Socks was essentially meant to be a massive tonguetwister. Therefore, it is by far the most unfair depiction of what's lost in translation. Conversely, it hig...

Okay, confession time: When I first went through Shizune's route, I was disappointed. I was enjoying the story. Things were going along well, and I was getting into it. I didn't even notice the lack of choices. Unfortunately, I fell for Misha. It could have been her role in Emi's route (I played Emi...
