I was wondering what everyone's reactions were when they saw a girl whose path they've already finished while playing through another girl's.
I played Shizune's path right after Lilly's, and it felt totally strange when Lilly and her were arguing. Lilly's dialogue had a lot more weight to it, and since they make up in Lilly's path I felt like a time traveler.

(That would be an interesting concept in itself, a VN where the main character is aware of all the alternate paths he's been through...)

I approve of a Groundhog Day-based VN.

Having played Shizune's route I realized that when Misha is talking about something without laughing every fifth word I should pay attention.

Higurashi/Umineko -cough-

It would be weird as hell to see a regular romance VN in that fashion.

Higurashi for the win.

I recommend the anime.

In every single route but Shizune's, I really lamented the fact that Hisao couldn't understand sign so he could understand what Shizune was actually saying. :'(

Even though Emi's path was my favorite, I really am quite attached to Shizune. sigh.

Which reminds me- going through Shizune's route can put some of Misha's lines in other routes in pretty harsh perspective.

Isn't that concept in which KS players would experience every time they start a new route after the other? Still, I approve.

Going to the question, I had this guilt feeling somewhere in Act 1 when I chose Hisao to defend himself instead of asking for Shizune to cut him and Lilly some slack. A part of me wished I started with Shizune's route then Lilly's.

But the guilt soon disappeared when I started Shizune's route. Righto! Back to the VN!!
