"Shizune Shyster" is the only thing I can think of right off the bat. The Japanese "ne" sound is kind of hard to rhyme with in English. Any playful words would probably be best to start with the "sh" sound. I'll stick with Feminist . ;) Shizu-nee sounds like somethinh ...

Last week I started some morning runs after I wake up in the morning, in part thanks to starting Emi's story. You don't know how embarrassed I am to admit that. I've got severe asthma, so it's incredibly easy for me to get winded. I just finished my morning runs 30 minutes ago and I'm still wheezing...

Now the one decision is a bad, but what makes that even worse is the character an themes of he story. In Act 1, you get Shizune's attention by taking chances and standing up for yourself. She says how she likes people that aren't worthless and actually go out and do things, so for the rest of the g...

I often hear Shizune's arc referred to as the "weakest," which always makes me sad. I thought that her story was really good and that she and Misha were well done characters. The whole set-up was very interesting, what with Tanabata, the vacation home, the disconnect between Misha and Shiz...

I have to say, I have been searching for "the word for when it feels inside your heart that everything in the world is alright" for a long time now, and I still am searching for it. Understanding others and having myself be understood are the most important parts in my life, and so this i...

I'm not so sure about comparing art with something like ink blots. Ink blots are actually specifically made to be as ambiguous as possible. If many people looking at the same ink blot see the same thing, then the artist behind the ink blot has pretty much failed. But in the case of KS, most of the ...

The creators of a piece are essentially parents. Once their work is introduced to the world, it takes on its own life and its own meaning. They're not too different from ink blots, really. Say someone paints a picture of a beetle, and another person sees this picture and believes it is a rabbit. Are...

I'm playing Emi's route right now, and I've got to say that it feels like one of the most polarizing paths. This is my fourth playthrough (Rin to Shizune to Hanako), and what surprises me most is just how emotive Emi is compared to the rest. Except when speaking of her father , she is generally very...

I have a few questions for the artists of the game. 1. Concerning the sprites, how were they handled? There are many different sets of clothing. Was the school uniform the original sprite for each character, or were there base "dolls" that you eventually drew each set of clothing onto? 2. ...
