So, after posting chapter three, I thought I would celebrate by taking one of my twelve daily power-naps. Thing is, I meant to set the alarm on my phone so that it would wake me up in two hours. My thumb slipped and I ended up accidentally setting it to two hours and NINE MONTHS in the future. I ...

Even though it's only his first appearance, I already like Chishiki more than Nomiya. I also enjoyed the conversation about how an artist's interpretation of their own work can differ from what other people see in it, and that there isn't anything necessarily wrong with that. I'm guessing that will ...

Good chapter Pathrick, I like the way the story is coming along. Oftentimes, when people write confrontations with Shizune it involves blatant fighting or passive aggressiveness. I like that you made Molly keep a cool head and had her offer to help them out with the student council work, it suited ...

I've seen a lot of people claim that Rin is the hardest KS character to write about correctly, but I think you've done a great job of it. Struck the balance of 'enigmatic artistic goofball' and 'this chick needs to learn to speak or I'm going to pull my hair out.' I also like the little touches ...

This is shaping up pretty well in my opinion, Gibbo. Regarding all the discussion about dreams — I read each story on here in their own little bubble, which allows me to suspend my disbelief on a case to case basis. Seeing as other stories on here feature ghosts and superpowers, I don't necessarily t ...

This is one of my favourite ongoing stories on here, so it's nice to see that things have progressed nicely since I last checked up on it. There's lots of strong characterization with Naomi and Hisao in the more recent chapters. I like the tomboy/world's youngest grandpa dynamic. It leads to some ...

Alright, yeah, I'm hooked. God dammit, I have too much shit to read and play and do. Why can't I have some rich, long-lost uncle die and leave me an inheritance of a fuckload of dollars? Well, if you do ever find that rich uncle I'll be happy to take care of him on your behalf so that the ...

(Continued from last post) ******* Akira’s philosophy on that seat is contagious; I also can’t help viewing it as obnoxious now. Instead of sitting down, I move further toward the centre of the bus and choose to stand instead. I wonder which of my new friends at Yamaku would be worthy of being off ...

Part 3: ‘Necronomicon’ ____________________________________________________________ “What do you mean you don’t want to run with me anymore?” Well, here we go. “It’s not that I don’t want to run with you, Emi. I don’t want to run at all. Whenever I finish my laps it feels like my chest is on fire, a ...

Awww sheeeeit, another Akira route. There's never enough Akira. I enjoy the stream of consciousness you throw in sometimes, as well. Not so much that it looks like a child wrote it (my biggest issue with Catcher in the Rye), but enough that you can tell that Hisao has a lot going through his head ...

Hello again, cripple crusaders. Sorry for the hot, throbbing triple-post. I didn't want to address this in the previous posts because this is more of a meta thing and not directly related to the plot. One of the things that left a big impression on me in KS was the music. In a VN without voice ...

(Continued from last post) ******* That couldn’t have possibly gone any worse. I’m a walking, talking, worst-case scenario. I tend to blame all of my problems on bad luck, but after a while, if bad things consistently keep happening to you, you should probably come to terms with the fact that you’re ...

Part 2: ‘Of Mice and Miyagi’ ___________________________________________ What do you even wear to things like this? Rummaging through my drawers, I pick out random articles of clothing to hold them up and look them over. A lot of students like to complain about dress codes and uniforms, but frankly, ...

This is really fun so far. Lots of interesting things can happen in a loony bin, so I'm looking forward to Hisao potentially interacting with other patients. The only thing I might say is that I had trouble picturing Kana-Banana because her appearance wasn't really described, but maybe you're ...

It's really nice to see that Hisao can be as awkward as normal people and not the master of romance. That's largely what inspired this story. KS had the 5 legit routes with the main girls, but also had the Kenji end if you were really antisocial. It made me wonder what the story would be like if ...
