At that age, I wasn't that much into listening to advice. Then again, it's close to 10 years since I left high school.

At that age, no one really listens to anything. Ever. There's something about teenagers that, while they ignore most everything they're told, they follow what they can piece together themselves.

Thankfully, Mutou's somewhat relevant talk-scenes actually do something in Katawa Shoujo most of the time. Hisao might've been more of an idiot without his teacher's help. Not that it was what Mutou was intending to help with, but still.

Mutou is Wilson to the rest of Yamaku's Tim Allen.

I agree he's an underrated character. Without him some of the relationships wouldn't have worked !

This is a great point, like I always saw the Mutou scenes at great plot devices, instead of having Hisao just suddenly realise he's messed up

I always got a kinda father/son vibe from the relation Mutou has with Hisao in some arcs, maybe that's just me ;D

Not the only one. His father seemed kinda dickish in backstory so I can buy the kinship between them.

We had a mutou for PE.My favourite and simmr's most despised teacher up until GCSE. he was so obsessed over his subject, he'd pull students out of mentor to work on their physical fitness and if you weren't interested he would drone on and on on until you knew everything about it. Cared about his students though, and thought enough of them to learn extra subject material to help students with their homework.

Yet we still send him Christmas cards. Simmr sends him gifts. Last year a book on sports anatomy

You mean the backstory where he goes "You're going to a new school"? Yeah, what a dick. :lol:

I meant the not around at all part. He mentioned it somewhere.

Also he wasn't very subtle with it. Just your going deal with it.

not really much wrong with not being around

maybe he's working exceptionally hard so that Hisao could afford to go to Yamaku

Hisao mentioned his parents worked a lot and weren't home often.

I'm not quite getting how having a job is dickish.

And how should he have done it, act like everything was normal until the point where he drives Hisao to a different school? Even the doctor said going to his old school again might cause problems, and the family couldn't home school him. Hisao's dad tried to put the best spin on it he could.

We could go off on a debate here, but I'll just slip in and say that telling people stuff like this is never easy. The recipient of the bad news usually pieces together the facts and/or factoids, and that's where their logic drags down their emotions.

And Hisao really never quite was the smart one when it came to his emotions, so. Yeah.

I'm not saying it's Hisao's fault for reacting the way he did, and I wouldn't blame the dad for not knowing how to present Hisao's new enrollment into a school for the disabled. I wouldn't expect him to know how to, either, since there really isn't a 'right' way. At least he tried.

I appreciate Mutou for not succumbing to his urge to kill Misha every time she Wahaha-ed.
