Discussing it is forbidden here, and results in immediate ban.

Wow. Harsh.

Anywho, is it ever explained where Shizune's mother is? I don't remember a reference of her in the VN. Then again, it's been months since I've touched the thing. I hardly remember anything that isn't Hanako or Emi's route.

I've heard this mentioned before and wanted to get it cleared up: In regards to the Shizune route(I can hear people groaning already..), did something happen with it? I heard that the original writer for the Shizune arc left at somepoint and the arc was taken over by someone who hated her? Can I get a yay or a nay on this? If it's been asked before then I apologize, the prospect of searching through 200 pages of something other than a fan fic sounds depressing to me. Now... 200 pages of- nvm

No. Looks like you've been hearing some baseless rumours. The only routes whose writing staff changed during the development are Lilly's and Hanako's.

She's in Kenji's box.

Is the change in Hanako's route the reason it was shortened from Alpha to Release?

I wrote like 5 posts above this that talking about the alpha leak is grounds for a ban here. You don't really want to do that.

Crud uses his real name pretty commonly in public contexts. The rest of us not so commonly.

Mostly they are not. At this time, that's how I prefer it.

Hey Aura! The rumored (I think it is at least) Katawa Shoujo II has gotten me to thinking, will the main character, or rather protagonist, still be Hisao, or will it be a new one? I hope for the latter, which is very likely. Who would be the routes if so? Would it be the time of Hisao (3rd year at the same time Hisao was there. That's in case you were confused by my poor explanation.) or would it be something else? I understand these were a lot of questions regarding this rumor, but the more the merrier, am I correct?

Anyways, give the team my thanks for such an amazing game if you would.

I do hope there's nothing wrong with discussing this.

Reading the FAQ might help:

Q: Will there be a fandisc, sequel, or prequel to Katawa Shoujo?
A: No. There will be no other work in any way related to Katawa Shoujo.

What rumors? The devs said countless times that no more work will be put into the ks universe/whatever

It's definitely been asked before, but I can't find it and I just have to know, so sorry in advance.

My native language is Hebrew (in which the vowels work relatively similar to Japanese), so pronouncing most of the names was really easy for me.
But there's one name whose proper pronounciation I just can't figure out on my own.
Hanako.
I know it's weird XD Seems like one of the names that are the easiest to pronounce...
I just can't figure out whether it's HA-nako or ha-NA-ko.
Help, someone
Also, "Katawa Shoujo" - I tend to pronounce it as KA-tawa Shoujo, is that correct or is it Ka-TA-wa?
As in, which part of the words is accentuated? (Sorry if that's the wrong term for this; that's the best I could get out of Google Translate )
