Re: How'd you find yourself here?
Referred by a friend from work. He said 4chan, and I was naturally hesitant. Experienced the novel, and even though I was shouting at Hisao most of Hanako's route, knowing full well the selfishness inherent in a white knight's attitudes , I still felt utterly destroyed after completing the novel. Th...

Re: This VN makes me sad, even after doing everything
It's a quality that proliferates the forums here, and many of us aren't able to pin down just what exactly causes it. Hell, the devs aren't entirely sure how their project to just turn out a good VN became the catalyst for so much personal insight and catharsis. My own theories go that we, collectiv...

Re: Real Life KS-type Relationships
I raise my glass to you, sir. You relate this powerful tale with the kind of insight and wisdom not oft seen. I think, perhaps, that your experience with "S" had far more to do with who she was as a person rather than the scars that had been inflicted upon her. No doubt, that's the kind of...

Re: Inspiration
@Alexbond45: Most certainly, and that's the force that will be a push from the altruism end of the spectrum, but at the end of the day I'm not really responsible for what others believe or do. I just try to place myself among the people who most deserve my respect. Trying to make other people my res...

Re: Inspiration

We'll be here to raise glasses to your success, and to place a hand on your shoulder while you mend the pieces of a o...

Re: Is it just me, or is Hanako better off...
I believe I remember someone saying that there were different authors for the different paths, which could account for that slight alteration in tone. I saw the same thing happen going through Emi's path after Hanako's. What you see of Lily in Hanako's route is a very soft-spoken, polite girl who is...

Re: what would the girls be like if they weren't disabled?
I think one of the best parts about this game is that I can sum up my answer for all of them as "pretty much the same." Hear hear! I think exactly the same. I consider the greatest strength of this work its consistent betrayal of its expectations, with the first such expectation being tha...

Andre, for your commendable display of literary insight in the face of inaccurate brevity, I award you the highest honor that I can bestow.

Re: Did anyone feel like there was no Hisao just you playing
Pretty damn hard to feel like I am Hisao when I want to strangle him half the time. Maybe that's zen? Yeah, most of the ride through Hanako's story involved working on that head-shaped dent in my desk whenever he started to thinking, right up to the scene when Lilly FINALLY poses the advice that Hi...

Re: Characters theme song, anyone?
Hanako - Undisclosed Desire by Muse
From the first lyric, this song just seems to be about her.
Bigbishounen totally has Hisao pinned down with those lyrics!

Re: Other Media that gave you "The Feels."
@pauper: I've had Clannad suggested to me by a friend as well. It's the same guy who threw KS my way, so I'm all the more intrigued now. @Tachikoma: Rats! Blade Runner is already on this page. Fantastic movie, all about those replicant feels. Let's see, without getting too crazy here... Fullmetal Al...

Re: Am I the Only One That Didn't Like Lilly's Route?
I've yet to complete Lilly's route, but it is kind of upsetting that hers is a little more mainstream romance fiction after the brutally-honest ride that Hanako's takes you through. I was hoping that they might pull a twist on the race for your love trope, a lot like how "My Girlfriend's Boyfri...

Re: If you *actually have* a physical disability, what is it
I have tinnitus (constant ringing in my ears.) The ringing's so loud tonight that I can't really sleep, ergo I decided to come soak in the forum a little bit. I'm the type to cherish the merest opportunity to hear in the first place, but I think I'll miss it once I finally go deaf. Then again, I'd l...
