Emi's conflict of fear of emotional intimacy is a very real and rather common problem in real-life relationships. Is it possible that you felt a bitter aftertaste because you know or knew someone who had difficulty letting others in and tried to compensate for it/distract from it by being overly phy...

Thanks. I'm really glad you enjoyed it. :) I do have a story outline in the back of my head for a continuation of this fanfic. However, since its scope would be roughly the same size as this story, whether I'll ever end up writing the whole thing out is still anyone's guess. This one already took a ...

Curiously, aside from the scene right after Hanako's breakdown in class, i don't remember any scene where he said he wanted to protect Hanako. There were several instances of it throughout Act 3. The first one took place just before Hanako's breakdown when Miki suggested Hanako wasn't just shy...sh...

Here's the deal, people, based on what I've been reading here so far. This is how I personally feel about it, no breach is intended. :lol: I personally feel that Hanako's bad ending is just there for the sake of having a bad ending. Don't you notice how when you make the wrong decision, the game "p...

She's way mature at the end of Lilly's story, and that's pretty cool. Plus you lack enough information to give it a believable spin, since the story isn't 100% focused on Hanako. You're right in that since the story didn't focus on Hanako and it doesn't highlight her too much, the way she's shown t...

Not to mention the fact that in Yamaku, EVERYONE has some sort of condition that warrants their presence at the school. (well, almost everyone) You can see it as the "You bully me with my lack of legs...and I'll use my phone to videotape your next epileptic seizure and post it on the internet."-prin...

So would Shizune, most likely. Even though she takes out her crankiness on Hanako at some point, she doesn't seem like the type to accept actual bullying in HER class.

Ummm, I've always thought there was an "offical" order to the routes, based on how their organised in the start menu screen; Emi -> Hanako -> Lilly -> Rin -> Shizune. You did notice they were simply sorted alphabetically, didn't you? And Lilly's seem to be the "Official Canon" route, since hers is ...

I'm with Xanatos on this one. Shyness and misantropy are both personality traits. Even if she didn't possess them before her accident. People's personalities tend to evolve as they grow older, colored by the experiences they have in life. To take the personality that Hanako had before that house fir...

Good old-fashioned tender loving care isn't always sufficient which is why psychiatrics still prescribe medication to their clients whenever they deem it necessary. In fact, psychologists often point out to family of people with psychological problems that just because their loved one is in a bad me...

Emi's short and doesn't have much meat on her chest, but she's not a loli. She looks older than 10. She also doesn't act like a loli. Yes, she acts childish during some moments (but so does Shizune), but most of the time the good-natured snark she volleys back and forth with Hisao is very much the i...

In what way did she give up her virginity easier than the other girls?

(witnesses semi-sarcastic posts voice disappointment an argument didn't turn into a full-blown flamewar) (witnesses post above take semi-sarcastic posts completely seriously) (blinks once in disbelief) Anyway, I recall there wasn't anything specific regarding the Nurse and Emi's mom, but it's mentio...

The official reason is Lilly staying behind for her education and Akira for her job. Akira suggests to Hisao that there's more to it and they left Lilly behind because they couldn't deal with her blindness very well. Lilly doesn't see it (heh) that way. Ultimately, the game itself is ambigious about...

Most: Hanako. Calm down bros, I'll explain. Hanako is shy, really shy and lonely, and then she starts dating Hisao, this dating will probably boost her ego, she will feel better, she'll be empowered by the relationship, wont be afraid of showing her scars anymore and she'll realize that she is actu...
