Moekki

Why so much hate?

But i think Hisao is more cool using hoody jacket Funny when see hisao mocked by Shizune's dad about his sweater vest >.<

Why is there no ending for misha or miki?

An excellent question... that has been answered a thousand and one times before. Actually that's probably a very modest estimate. Anyway, they weren't part of the original Raita sketch.

Cheers, BlackWaltz.

Of course it doesn't violate the license in any way. Personal use of your own (derivative) work.

Did you guys ever think KS would inspire this many people?? ( The Emi 5k exercise program for example )

The part where they were in town together when Lilly is un Scotland

Hisao seem to observe that the shop owner stares at her then turns away when he first sees her

And Hisao notices him open the curtain and looked at her when they left

Hisao is a little ticked at him thinking he's staring at her like a circus freak

But my over active imagination has him recognizing who she is

I know I'm wrong but whats his deal?

I think your imagination might just indeed be overactive, but who knows, who knows...

3-3 students are creepy as fuck.

Printing a copy of a fanfic doesn't violate copyright any more than writing it in the first place.

We didn't think it would inspire anyone at all. We thought we were making a fairly straightforward romance VN.

Here we are, 120 pages since this first started.

I don't know if this has been asked before, but were the girls all completely original or were they based off of people you know in real-life?

Also, and I don't know if this has been asked either,did Rin commit suicide after the end of her path?

Hanako was totally fictional, however I can't say that I wasn't influenced by people that I knew.

I think I pretty much had an avatar of each of the girls in my head. When I was writing I would put them in the situation of the start of the scene, and then pretty much just write what I saw.

Then I decided to scrap that path and go with a planned path, which was much more predictable and less prone to anger.

A question to all the devs who worked on KS;

There has obviously been an overwhelming positive response from people with this game, and for all the right reasons. Most of you have spent ~5 years of your life on this project, slaving many hours during your free time for it to come to completion, and none of you were professionals in your given area. This, coupled with the fact that 21 people from literally around the world managed to pull off a VN of this caliber when most others would fail is unparalleled (to my knowledge). I think it would be safe to say the outcome of this project was better than everyone expected.

Factoring these thoughts in(correct me if I have assumed too much), would you say that this is one of your greatest achievements (if not the greatest) in your life?



As always, Thanks for an amazing read

To the devs:

So, with Katawa Shoujo being out for nearly 5 months, do you have any future plans? Seeing as this took 5 years to make and the VN being out for only 5 months now, I wouldn't except anything anytime soon. But even any thoughts about a sequel, featuring Hisao and the original characters? I pondered the thought of it for awhile one day, maybe leading off from the endings of the characters, with the ability to choose which character to begin with (for example, if I wanted to continue from where Lilly's ending left off). Again, I highly doubt this has been thought of, or if it's ever going to happen, just a thought that I ponder about.

@zeldas:
Has been thougt of, asked about and answered many times in the past.
Is also addressed in the FAQ.

No, there won't be any sequel.

Just wanted to know if you guys knew about this, I backed it initially but retracted my backing after I found out about the CC license attached to KS. Isn't it illegal?
Couldn't find this on search.

It's a hard to argue that KS isn't one of the greatest achievements or whatever, but I don't really feel I've achieved something great by making it. Essentially: sure, maybe, but I don't think it matters much. Too blasé?
