I dunno why, but in my head, that'd be a couple of months later. I guess it's just a wrath thing for yelling at her, but I imagine his heart exploded after the year was through. Dunno what that says about me.
Well, he is pretty old.
Honestly, even after going through the route, I don't see Nomiya as being totally evil... to an extent, he does appear to believe in his words, he just flew way the fuck off the handle because of misplaced passions. And I think it'd be good for both of them if he acknowledged that, even if Rin didn't really care.

Yeah, I like that a lot. Again, I don't want to make excuses for him because what he did to Rin was totally wrong, but I do get the sense that he's lead a life of disappointments and is at least trying to sway her from that.

Nomiya strikes me as one of those people who genuinely want the best for others, but forget that not everyone defines "the best" the way they do.

That's really evident when he talks to Hisao about why Rin
leaves the exhibit.

Another headcanon that has been rolling around for a while.
Lunch time frenzy:
Shizune is known to be the first to leave the class during lunch time (with Misha). She particularly dislike how crowded
It can be with students shoving to get the special before it runs out--Misha's obnoxiously loud voice are often drowned bythe voices of hungry students.
To her, it seems like another competition; one she has a handicap on. She thought it's a great challenge.
Thus, she'd often rush out with Misha to avoid the situation.
Recently however, she found eating down town to be less bothersome and would opt for it more often

They say they hate Shizune? What is this? BLASPHEMY!
SHII-HAEL!
Shizune>
Rin>
Emi>
Hanako>
Lilly

Heh, sounds like me. I also usually get put either right next to the door or across the room from it, and the hallways in my school are very crowded, so it's like flying through an asteroid field if you want a burrito.
Lilly = Rin > Hanako > Emi > Misha > Shizune
I'm back in action.

Kenji and Yuuko were a couple at some point. (I don't remember if the game flat out confirms this or not, all I remember was that it implied they had one)
Hanako has probably played some games at some point in her life. Although her main form of escapism is books. Since, according to the description of her room, she really doesn't have very many possessions.
Kenji ends up a laughingstock on the internet and gets his own page on ED.
In the future, Kenji ends up being proven right when the Feminists launch their global scale attack on the world and lead it into ruin.

I've heard that in an earlier version of the game they were. And it's so heavily implied in the final game that it's practically canon.

Since it's unlikely that Emi actually goes all-out pirate in the future, I'm going to say that she becomes a track coach at Yamaku regardless of the route taken. She already shows the makings of one:
-She can perform
-She has a thorough knowledge of the sport
-She works with the captain to help others
-She goes way out of her way to help others independently
-She's a health nut
-She can't stop running
-She's strict, but understanding
-She knows what running with a physical handicap is like
-She knows what being forced not to run feels like
-She's alumni
-She has no other plans
Now she just needs to learn a little self-control with knowing when to back off, and boom, coach.
In addition, (and this has no basis in canon fact at all, mind you) if I were to write a fic about her semi-distant future, she'd get cancer, twice. And survive it both times. And keep running. My cross country and track coach did that, and outside of my family, he's one of the most inspirational men I've ever known. The guy is an absolute madman, and I can totally see Emi following suit.

Even though she knows the concept of Christmas and is perfectly fine with everything it entails, and even if she likes giving and recieving presents, I like to think that Lilly secretly really fucking hates Christmas presents.
"Oh, you've given me a cube?"
She knows that it's just something in a box and the box itself is unimportant, but deep down she hates the fact that she's been refused the opportunity to feel what it is before it's opened.

On the other hand, Emi has shown to be very irresponsible, that wouldn't be a good quality for someone who is supposed to look after the people she coaches and making sure they don't push themselves too hard, something she has been known to... I'm pretty sure she'd prefer running herself rather than coaching as well
