Re: Am I the only one that enjoyed Shizune's route?

What I mean is you'd get an entirely different kind of emotion. You could have jealousy and resentment and alienation (or, with the whackjob, psychotic anger) without there needing to be romantic interest. You'd need to make them really, really extreme examples but the story would still work on the...

Re: KS Wallpaper

EDIT: Just gonna copy-paste this in the OP because I are lazy. Just finished these. It'll be a set of 3 - take an absolutely wild guess what the third one will be. (Just refer to the OP here: http://ks.renai.us/viewtopic.php?p=71694#p71694) Wanted to capture some of the most poignant scenes in the ...

Re: Am I the only one that enjoyed Shizune's route?

IMHO the story would be better with any mention of romance removed from it (the fact that Hisao and Shizune are dating is utterly incidental to the story, and in fact ignored by most of it). But the relationship between Hisao, Shizone and Misha is very very well done. It perfectly shows how someone...

Re: Am I the only one that enjoyed Shizune's route?

Then after reading HeMeido's perspective on it, my view changed 180. I can't wait to read through the arc again, as I'm really bad at picking up subtleties like that Pretty excellent analysis, thanks :) . That's the thing about Shizune's route, and the reason why most people don't seem to understan...

Re: Am I the only one that enjoyed Shizune's route?

Read Misha's rooftop coming out and the flashback scenes again. She thought it was over after being rejected but Shizune kept tracking her down, similar to how the two of them kept after Hisao in act 1. She was glad that Shizune still wanted to be her friend but she also says it hurt both then and ...

Agreed. I'd go so far as to say that Hisao's development is just as important as Shizune's/Misha's in that particular route.

Awesome! :D

Personally would have preferred a different font, but it earns a stamp of approval just for having Misha on it. Job well done.

Re: KS Wallpaper

Incidentally, I also just realized that some of these make great backgrounds for Android phones, as well. Will try and post a screenshot later. Also thinking about taking some of the more artistic shots from the game (like the ones where Lilly is feeling Hisao's face, or Emi is running or something)...

Re: Am I the only one that enjoyed Shizune's route?

My experience in this route is also colored by my own history, so full disclosure (more like venting) first: (note: only done this and emi's path so far) My girlfriend throughout college was similar in many ways to a combination of Shizune/Misha. The competitiveness was more inward-directed but sti...

Re: Did you cry while playing KS?

Interesting (if expected) statistics. Having completed all the routes short of Rin's, I have this to say: The first three routes were very moving and from the start (I started with Shizune, of all of them, and loved it, which should speak volumes about how much I enjoyed the others) I knew that the ...

Re: Music

I know exactly what you mean - music (media as a whole, really) has a way of encapsulating the emotions that we're feeling as we listen to them. When you go back, you can't help but relive them. In the case of Katawa Shoujo, I just sort of looped "Two Months Off" by Underworld . Its sound ...

I don't know what it is that makes this guy so funny, but we need to pinpoint it, research it, and duplicate it. I've found this archive from back in september of his stuff, has he made anything in between, or is there a more complete archive somewhere that anybody is aware of? http://pastebin.com/e...

Re: Am I the only one that enjoyed Shizune's route?

You aren't alone, although I think it's much helped if you think of it a little differently. As the tragedy of Misha and Shizune rather than as the story of Shizune and Hisao, I mean. To start, you have the best username ever. Second, thanks for highlighting the "how you think of it" part...
