So, what you're saying is that Nomiya is bisexual?

This seems like a valid question. :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.

Slightly. Maybe deservedly so.

Just so you know though, I really was under the impression at the time that nobody would be depressed enough to take it from somebody they weren't attracted to, and I also didn't think that "I like girls" = "I only like girls" so even if I was flawed with my logic, my intentions were a lot better with my recent topic than "lel but I want Pink Loud durhurr" and I wasn't just flat out ignoring what she was saying.

She is the one character where her sexuality would totally change the context of a scene, and it's left vague exactly what it is.

TheHivemind wrote:Basically like that--the sexuality of most of the characters never really comes up--so what's the point of pulling a Dumbledore and being like "oh by the way the whole time I was writing Muto I was thinking of how he's probably gay" or something like that (FULL DISCLOSURE: I did not actually think of Muto as gay, although if you want to look hard at the way Tennant's Doctor flirts with Captain Jack and pretend that's relevant to the discussion, feel free). It adds nothing to the narrative, it's just a bullet point to put on TV Tropes--hooray, we ticked the box for "CLOSET CASE" or "FAUXMOSEXUAL" or whatever the fuck category they decide to shoehorn it in. Stuck under WORD OF GOD, because I typed it up just now on this message board.
That is fandom in a nutshell nowadays.
As soon as you let two charakters shake hands, the fans will find a way to ship them. That is proven in several fanfics and fanarts in ANY universe.
I don't get that and I can understand if the writer of said charakters would be pissed off.

What would Bram Stoker say if he read that Dracula was giving a blowjob to Abraham Van Helsing?
Probably: "The fuck? I don't even."

Hi, I want to add to the page of Katawa Shoujo on the italian wikipedia an "official" image that rapresent the game. Something like this one. Is there something like that? Or that one in bigger resolution?

And more important, the staff want to give the autorization to make the use on it.wiki possibile?

Big enough? :mrgreen:

We have no "official" cover art to the game, so I suppose this one could be as good as any. Or you could go look up the release blogpost. :)

Hi!, 2 quick questions.
What's the first name of Emi's dad? I saw it the other day and I've spent the last 2 days scouring the net to find it again with no luck.
What's the Japanese equivalent of "nana".

Thanks all!

Since I expect there will be quite a few posts in this thread, here's a bit of a preface:

1) Even though this is a kind of a free arena and finishing the game made us less grumpy, we are not any less forgiving of stupidity. While commentary and followup questions are fine, try to not clog up the thread with unrelated posts, questions that have been answered before, or any general silliness.
