I don't think I've ever told you how amazing you are.

But seriously, Natsume is like, Tier 2 at best.

True Tears: the TV series is available in English, but only a demo of the original visual novel has been translated. I read the demo once in 2006, waited at least a year hoping for more, and eventually gave up. According to what I read on TVTropes, they have "...a completely different plot, ca...

Man, it's been forever since I've seen that movie.

But yeah, I'm gonna have to say that that is a huge stretch.

Of course, I don't buy into the theory that states that anything a writer says post-publication can be considered canon, Sooo... you don't think that Dumbledore is gay? :roll: Also, I would not go out of my way to treat any piece of dev fiction I read as being canon. That would yield some... scary ...

Well, technically speaking, Hisao pursues Rin as well. She's the only other girl he outright asks to be his girlfriend. With... less than desirable results, I suppose.

My great-grandparents on my mother's side are first cousins - evidently that is not too uncommon in the family. Perhaps it has to do with Hispanic culture, since I have had cousins who've dated one another. My mother even made light attempts to hook me up with a second cousin. That sure as hell did...

Whoa, that took an interesting turn. I read that list the first time, and none of it strikes me as particularly alien or hidden or anything. Pretty much everything listed either happens in the West too or is pretty simple to comprehend from context. This is the impression I got as well, though it wa...

Well, there's looking at the subtext, and then there's squinting until you see the subsubtext which may not even actually be there. At which point you move from authorial intent to personal interpretation, which is obviously always a thing in literature. My personal takeaway is that Jigoro is writte...

I don't know, I guess I just can't get really get behind that sentiment, even if it was A22's intention. Rereading it has made me realize that I perhaps judged Shizune far too harshly, but I can't say that my opinion of the route itself has changed much. I think the only "layers" we can re...

True, though I honestly felt that it never meaningfully expanded on Shizune's character. Some conjecture can be made given what we see of Jigoro, but it just didn't really go in depth. Speaking of whom, seems more like a walking meme than a nuanced character. All in all, it just felt like a wasted o...

Yeah. The entire summer trip is where my eyes start to roll into the back of my head. It all just felt extraneous.

Funnily enough, I've been working my way through Shizune's route again. I still agree that the route is easily the worst of the bunch, but oddly, I've found that I actually really like Shizune as a character. The bossiness and bitchiness I thought I saw the first time around didn't really surface du...

Thank you, I'll take 'sweet' and acknowledge that it could have been better! :) Oh no, it was great. Any fic can be "better," after all. I agree with Mirage - I was just being facetious with that first part. Also, the time pair o' docs you're talking about must be Mutou as 10th Doctor and...

Come on guys, it wasn't that good. :wink: oh god please dont hurt me In all seriousness, it was a sweet little meta piece. I've always wondered how the cast would act if they knew people on the internet wrote angsty, fluffy, pornographic, or all-of-the-above stories about them. Evidently, there'd be...

I would go so far as to say that even Hisao seems like a more likely candidate for someone with serious issues with depression. Going by the VN alone, without sufficient social support, he is utterly hopeless.
