EDIT: also, I read about how on 2ch, the people there are insulting katawa shoujo because it's "discriminatory," any thoughts on that?

Sankaku's a tabloid, and they've cherry-picked responses. The 2ch threads can be seen for yourself here.

What about the people who don't speak Japanese?

The game was great, pretty amazing actually. The routes are interesting, brings the world to a new and different light, and ok, Kenji might be a nutter, but he makes the game a little more unpredictable. Definitely a plus point there. Each of the routes gives room for discussion as well, but isn't that how all games are supposed to be? Otherwise they won't be as memorable IMO.

Btw, Is there any chance of this game having voices tho? To me thats really the only downside to the game. Sure, we can use our imagination to see how they'd sound like, but its way more interesting to see how the creators of the game would wanted them to have sounded like. I don't even mind paying for the game if you voiced them... Cause its a really well made game.

Now I have to think of a quection to stay on topic, hmm... Isn't is against the law to be selling stuff like artbooks since it was originally Raita's idea, or Japan has a law that allows that? Also were there many books left after it was over (were they popular)?

Raita, like the rest.of the devs, is technically covered by the contributor's licence.

Also, he only created the characters, not the stories, art etc. It would be an interesting.court case.

Besides, I bekieve thd artbooks were sold at cost, neaning no pfofits...

2) How many people worked on KS at any one time?

NeedsMoreHats wrote:In the "A Day in the Life" blog post, Aura mentioned that what everyone considered the best line he wrote for KS was written 2 years, 4 months ago (3 years, 8 months now). What was that line?

And second question, if that line isn't what you consider the best line, what is?

This question is actually what has been annoying me most since playing through four of the routes. :P

Katawa Shoujo devs, I think.

1. Was it difficult to come up with different stuff for Kenji to do in each route?
2. Were any sideways references to fan memes intentionally put into any of the routes?
