Who teaches the rest of Hisao's subjects. Besides Mutou teaching science and being his homeroom teacher.

Any reason in particular that Miki is the only one who wears black shorts at the race? Everybody else was wearing red shorts of varying length with the same shirt, which indicated to me that it was some sort of makeshift uniform for the team, but then she broke the pattern. Did she just misplace hers or something?

The rest of the faculty wasn't built as characters because they aren't in the story.

The artists ran out of red paint.

Should have been more specific, see he's only Hisao's science and homeroom teacher, yet Hisao goes to Mutou for homeroom, is there until lunch starts, goes back, and is there when the day ends. Which would mean Hisao is only being taught science. I'm a bit confused by this.

It's 3-3's home room. Mutou is 'homeroom' teacher, which means he's responsible for 3-3's students administratively. He starts the day by talking to the 3-3 students, handling admin and so on, then goes off to which ever class he's next scheduled for. He comes back into 3-3 (as he would for any class he teaches) for science and is off again to some other class at other times. There are presumably other teachers coming into 3-3's homeroom, but we don't see any doing that, for various reasons of plot and RL constraints.

Will anyone be going to E3? Probably a long shot but the only event I'm likely to be able to get to this year.

Very much doubt it, makes sense geographically to almost no one.

How were the sprites drawn? Obviously with a graphics tablet and all that, but where they drawn in layers and then 'constructed'? I've seen a few where the arms move or something and the hair remains the same, so I wondered if this was the case.
Because green eyes are best eyes.

Yeah I figured, ah well.

A major thank you for keeping the forums up and still answering questions years after release though. I know it isn't always easy but it's very much appreciated :)

Who took the background photos for KS and where are they from?

Various people in various locations. Most photos of the school are from Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, USA, taken by yujovi. The photos of the suburbs and the city are mostly from Tokyo, Kamakura and Sendai, Japan, taken by crud and me. Everything else is by us three, other devs or our friends in our respective geographic locations. For instance, the snowy park in the opening scene and the hill Rin takes Hisao to are both in Helsinki, Finland.
