Alexisonfire - Rough Hands
I have this headcanon that Mutou used to be in a relationship but his work ethic made the relationship ultimately fail. Hence for me, this is Mutou's theme.

Rascal Flatts - What Hurts The Most
Post-Lilly bad end, Hisao POV, of course.

Sixx:A.M. - This Is Gonna Hurt
Primarily Hisao (and primarily Lilly route at that), but also a bit Hanako and Emi.

Ashes Remain - End Of Me (using a nightcore version because why the hell not)
Misstep.

Chaotica - Unstable
Emi.

SunStroke Project & Olia Tira - Run Away
Lilly's bad end. (Also contains Epic Sax Guy.)

Bullet For My Valentine - Your Betrayal
......yyyyeeeeep. (I've got this idea of Hanako going to check on Hisao, and hearing him blasting that song after Lilly leaves, and freaking out given some of the lyrics.)

Seether feat. Amy Lee - Broken
Amy, Emi, what's the difference? I'm thinking after the good end.

I Just Can't Get Enough, for Hisao's feelings in general. Depeche Mode puts me in a KS mood, I guess.

I know nothing about that.

I definitely didn't write a fic which abused Depeche Mode references in a KS context. No, sir.

Is her good end depressing? Because the song is. :lol:
I love the interpretation of Pac-Man where he's a just a lowly worker retrieving golf balls left all over the course by the rich masters and the ghosts are all previous workers who got conked on the head and killed by incoming golf balls in the line of duty.

Flogging Molly - Punch Drunk Grinning Soul
Whenever I listen to this song, I always imagine a little music video about Emi and/or Hanako.

Kinda like through the verse, it shows Emi having a particularly bad day. She's tripping at the track, letting people slip past her, getting more and more frustrated, seconds from giving up...
Then when the chorus comes in she sees an apparition of her father on the sidelines, shouting encouragement.

"Hey now, stay proud,
You were lost on a Blue day!
Hey now, stay proud!"


Second verse is a similar sort of thing both with Hanako and both of her parents encouraging her to continue.

Dead Kennedys - Stealing People's Mail
Hisao and Kenji get drunk.
Enough said.
Like stupid, silly doodles with no point? You've come to the right place, friend :^)
I also occasionally write oneshots. Why not have a skimread?

Collective Soul - Heavy

General feeling of KS being well, heavy.

Makes me think of Hisao (or any other student, really) opening up to people, or taking on a relationship.

Red - Let It Burn

Parts for Hanako's route overall, parts for Lilly's bad ending.

Or another interpretation, the whole song for Shizune's bad ending from her POV, except she never found out about Hisao cheating on her with Misha.

Nice choice with Flogging Molly and Dead Kennedys. :P

When I was driving home from finals earlier tonight The Police - Don't Stand So Close To Me came on, and I couldn't help but think about Misha and Mutou in Shizune's route. :lol:

YESoh god, I can see it now

"Young teacher,

That's fucking Mutou if I ever heard it

Another one for Misha. I feel Ska fits her bubbly personality and the topic of the song is spot on her Shizune's route :3

Ah, very true that is a good choice. I could see Misha getting in with the Ska crowd if she was a teen in the 90s.

Come to think of it, this gem is a pretty spot on for Hanako during her good end. From her point of view that is.

Not so much a "Music that makes you think of KS" but more along the lines of "Linked/modified a trailer to be about KS while half-asleep" :lol:

Nomiya: "We arrested these five at Sendai, check out the rap sheets. Lilly: AKA the Scott. Since her family abandoned her, she's been on a rampage across the country in a search for vengeance. Hanako: blogger, assassin, wanted on over a dozen counts of HNNNNNNNGS. Shizune: wanted on over 50 charges of vehicular theft and escape from custody."
*Jigoro looks at Misha*
Jigoro: "What the hell?"
Nomiya"Misha: she's been traveling recently as Shizune's personal muscle slash loudspeaker. Hisao Nakai. He's also known as "The Master of Romance".
Jigoro"Who calls him that?"
Nomiya: "Himself, mostly. Wanted mostly on charges of minor assault, public indecency and fraud..."
*Hisao winds up his finger and flips the bird at the screen which reads: OBSCENE GESTURE ALERT*
Hisao: "Oh, I'm sorry. I-I don't know how this machine worked..."
Nomiya: "They call themselves the Guardians of the Katawa."
Jigoro: "What a bunch of a-holes."

Excellent! Now all we need to do is add Karen Gillan as the villainous Akira and Lee Pace as Mutou the Akioser. :D
