Re: KS: 3 Years Later - Hanako (WIP Comic)

Maybe it's all the volumes of Bakuman I've been reading lately, or the curiosity about your story because of my own, or just the fact that I sympathize with how long these things can take, but I want to challenge you (in a friendly, encouraging way) to keep at it and bring your story to fruition. Le...

Re: Happy First Anniversary!

Happy anniversary! Something new from 4LS? Oh, man...now you've got my attention! I'm really looking forward to that! Once again, thank you all for Katawa Shoujo. Not only is it my Game Of The Year 2012, it was a wonderful gift that enriched my life and helped pull me out of a dark place. Emi, Hanak...

Re: your personal opinion of every heroine/route

Emi: My first path, which I fell into unexpectedly (I was interested in Hanako). Surprised me quite a bit, as, based on her appearance, I was expecting the overly-cheerful, "cute" girl I would normally avoid, and ended up falling in love with her. I love her sense of humor, her aggressive...

Re: So I've just finished Hanako's story

I played in this order: Emi Hanako Lilly Shizune Rin I'd recommend the same order, frankly. I'm a big fan of Hanako and Emi, and I really liked Lilly's path but it was the first one where Hisao's personality really began to depart from mine. I got bored with Shizune's path, though it had some gems b...

Re: Did we change?

I'm still changing as a result of KS. When I first played, I was in a really dark place for me, and it's been helping me to pull myself out of that pit, though it's slow going. It's changed the way I think about and act toward disabled people. It's inspired me to return to my artwork and make a real...

Re: This Game blew my mind

When I finished playing the game, for some reason I could so easily see this as a manga, imaging the covers with the girls on them with the heart logo and everything. It just seems to "fit" in my mind. How it'd be done exactly I'm not sure. It'd either function as a harem where it is just...

Re: Is anyone unwilling to do the bad/neutral endings?

I had the same problem, especially with Hanako's. But eventually the feels calmed enough that I was able to do it, and I feel like I learned a bit more about the girls as a result. Not that I'm immune to the feels; quite the opposite. But I can handle it emotionally now. It just took time and reflec...

Re: Telling friends and/or family?

I haven't had as much luck in telling others about it. It's been a mixed bag. I don't think anyone's actually come out and accused me of being a pervert, but after finally convincing my best friend to download it and play it, he got turned off by the sex scenes and I don't think he's really done any...

Re: Is Hanako mentally unstable?

Just typed up a big ol' post basically saying the same thing Oddball said. Hisao&Hanako, I totally get where you're coming from in not wanting to read the Bad Ending dialogue. I felt the same way for a long time. Eventually, I felt that that scene told me a lot more about Hanako as a person, and...

Re: Tribute videos

Nicely done. Though I have to admit the star wipe in Hanako's video made me giggle, but then, star wipe always makes me giggle. If I had any video editing abilities, I'd do a Hanako tribute video set to the Andrews/Jules version of "Mad World". I was listening to it at work the other day a...

Re: Where You Once Belonged (Hisao and Hanako WIP Comic)

Thank you for all the compliments so far! The scars on her hand look like fuzzy hair. Ha ha... My wife said the same thing. I may need to fix that. Drawing burn scars convincingly is kinda hard. :D This interests me greatly. How's it going so far? Sadly mystery cycle has been inactive. Hopefully he ...

Re: Is There Any Character That You Really Hate Seeing?

In practice, it's probably Kenji. His lines are funny, but yeah, when I was playing through I just thought Hisao was a masochist for constantly seeking him out to "see what he's up to." In replay, I usually skip his scenes because I want to get back to the story with the girls, as was said...

Re: Which Hisao is your favourite?

Emi's route Hisao. For all the reasons already mentioned, and also because he just seems like he'd be the most fun to hang out with. He's got a sense of humor and engages in playful banter with Emi, which was one of the things I liked most about him from the start.

Wow, looks great! Here's to hoping that you don't gradually disappear like a lot of the other prospective projects do. Thanks! Sticking to the project has always been a challenge for me, but I think art school helped me to develop a bit more of a work ethic. Having said that, the greatest motivatio...
