Nah, she's actually a good girl in my ideas. Hisao didn't make things easy, she didn't need to deal with that.

It's a good thing she has almost no personality, I'll try to give her a good one.

I'm not sure if there is any official word on Iwanako outside of what little is given in the VN.

As for fanfics:
The "gold standard" Iwanako fanfic is Mean Time to Breakdown by Leaty.



Thanks ! I'll check it out!


There's no more to Iwanako than what you see in the game.

There's not even ...

At first, I just saw her as a plot device and nothing more.
During my first playthrough, I didn't give her a second thought. But on my third route, I kept wondering if she was going to visit suddenly and have a conflict with Shizune or Hanako (those are the girls I imagined could have had issues ...

Seeing Rin cry. That broke my heart. I personally relate a lot to her and Hanako.

Other parts where Lilly leaving to Scotland and the last scene in Hanako's good ending. (the moment she broke down and was on the floor)

Very nice scene. It was all going on in my head as a read it.

I imagine only one of them getting married while the other moves on too but only dates and/or sleeps around. (who does which is anyone's guess)
You don't forget the kind of connection Hisao and Lilly had. Perhaps is because of the school ...

“I know you’re mad at your Mom at me for staring at her.”
at your Mom and me

“I couldn’t feel your arms around you, so I woke up.
around me

Other than that this is a great story. The way you write Rin is almost perfect.
I knew what the last chapter was, I freaking knew Hisao's parents ...

And the icing on the cake is that Lilly's route is all about honesty: All choices in her route are about Hisao always telling her everything about himself without reservation, otherwise bye bye good ending.
Sometimes I wonder if Suriko was trolling us with this...

Fuck. I never thought of that ...

Hanako is actually even more jealous than what she appears at first.
After Hisao finally confesses to her, they start a relationship. Hisao bit more than he could chew. After a while of dating, she remembers the Iwanako letter and confronts him about it, they fight but she seemed calmed after ...

Breathlessly

and

Letting my heart speak.

Both stayed with me even after finishing the game.

When you use your alone time to imaging different interactions and coming up with new stories with the same characters or introduce in your mind a new girl from one of your own stories to KS or you imagine an anime character dating or befriending Hisao or one of the girls.

I can easily say it's ...

I can't just say Rin.
But Rin.

It resonated with me in a way no other story has done. Her love is far more meaningful to Hisao, even when her lack of social skills and overall personality isn't perfect at all, she is someone that would reciprocate all the love and care you'd give her.
That ...

Probably the people in the airport told Akira. There was a lot of noise and there is no way Lilly didn't hear people gasping and yelling "Someone call a doctor" or something.
She couldn't go with him, so she should have gone with Shizune and either calling the hospital or going there once a day to ...

I found the link to this is on a Reddit post. Barely a day after discovering Saki and other stuff about the game. Already finished it, but I needed more.

Your story was that more I needed.
Very nice writing, engaging and emotional story.

I was hoping it would be already finished... but anyway. I ...
