Although I imagine you guys are loathe to speculate, what do you think to have been RAITA's original intentions for KS? Would he have wanted to cater to the "white knight," the deviant pervert, the hopeless romantic, or the normal person? You guys obviously went to great lengths to depict ...

Different dormitory buildings.

Ah Eh I Oh You was never really written for KS. Way, way back in 2007, someone had made a post on OCRemix as a call to composers looking to help with the game. In response someone named OverCoat posted a couple tracks and said we were free to use them, and Ah Eh I Oh You was one of them. It wasn't ...

For the writers: How much of your "ideal woman" is manifest in the girl whose story you wrote? Are any flaws that they have also desirable or tolerable quirks of your ideal woman, or did you have to "inject" them for the purpose of character development? Would you say that the gi...

It also gave me a way to perhaps address some larger concerns with the way these stories go, so I made a few alterations to the formula and had ... a heroine whose chastity is called into question (is she? isn't she? The answer's not important, the question (and why some people are tearing their ha...

What are the worst/most annoying/frustrating things you guys have had to deal with or bear witness to in the aftermath of release?

I think the strength of your emotional response to something like KS is at least partly dependent on what you're going through in real life at the time.

This thing is so sappy and yet I can't help feeling touched by it. fucking Aura.

I wonder if A22 was using Jigoro as a proxy for his own opinions regarding the sweatervest.

Reading threads like this and learning a hell of a lot. Not directly related to development or waiting for the game or whatever, but still.

Who came up with Akira's personality? Did Suriko have any trouble adapting to it?

And for that matter, did any of the writers find it difficult to write for Kenji?


Edit for brainfart.

Eh, I guess different people will have different reactions to it. Personally I found that it mostly just elicited anger, all of which was directed towards Hisao. I think it's important to see the bad end just to witness the kind of negative, childish, hopeless attitude that can lead one to throw eve...

Question for all of the developers: Is there one single contribution that you made to the project that you can hold up and say, "this is what I am most proud of"? For an artist, it might be a CG. For a writer, it might be a particular scene that they wrote. For delta, it might be a bit of ...
