Re: Cropsy's Assorted Fanart Oddities.

I already saw your Grindhouse and Suspiria parody posters on DA and loved them. Keep up the good work!

Re: 2400 words from a path never written.

Feels a tad excessive even for Saki's self-destructive phase :mrgreen: but yes, I agree that it's quite possible. Saki may tell this to Hisao in a matter-of-fact way, almost causing him a heart attack, only to conclude grinnng that it's a joke and that she made it all up on the spot. Then it would l...

Another great fanart by Amaranth-Pink

I felt the need to point to this because, due to not having "Katawa Shoujo" written in its title or description, it didn't show up when I searched Deviantart for KS-related pictures. Here it is: http://amaranth-pink.deviantart.com/art/and-then-there-s-this-287250600 The author is the same ...

Re: Amendments (Spoilers abound)

A simple "What If" premise that was well developed. At the end, it felt a bit like Hanako and Misha were saying "well, we can make it together without Shizune and Lilly": while it's true they have to detach themselves from them at least partially (Hanako can still stay in contact...

Re: 2400 words from a path never written.

BTW, my thought that she may not be a virgin stems from knowing how she reacted to her diagnosis and the truth about her father: given the self-destructive period she lived, it's not far-fetched to think she may also have given her virginity away almost casually, back then. I think that's a definit...

Re: 2400 words from a path never written.

Agreed, and it'd be nice for there to be a rewrite. There's not exactly any romance, and it doesn't make sense Hisao's calling her his girlfriend due to that. Those are only pieces extrapolated from an imaginary Saki route. The romantic parts are just not shown, but it doesn't mean there was no rom...

Re: Whatever. It's done. (Miki: Profanity and Content Warnin

And I thought a past worse than Hanako and/or your rendition of Saki couldn't be done :shock: I tend to think of the loss of Miki's hand as relatively recent; here, it's not and she covers her stump because it basically represents all that went wrong in her life (which is basically her entire life b...

Re: 2400 words from a path never written.

I figured that what happened in that scene was probably an acceleration of her condition that prevents her from going back to school or something. She's still got years/decades left, but in a greatly reduced condition, possibly confined to a wheelchair now, and is driving her "boyfriend" ...

Re: 2400 words from a path never written.

Liked it a lot (Saki being a mere April's Fool joke is the biggest disappointment the KS devs have given me) but it's not without some gripes from me. As already observed, not only the illness consumes her too rapidly, it isn't even consistent. At the beginning, she says about a life expectancy that...

Re: Hanako's Scars?

She is in the care of the state because of the loss of her parents. I seem to remember her also saying something about the staff at her orphanage sending her at Yamaku, because they thought it was the right choice after seeing how terrible the middle school years were for her.

Re: Least favorite girl?

Rin. If I met a person like her in real life, I'd like to be of help to her - but only as a friend. The dislike stems also from her ending, which I felt has the least resolution and left her and Hisao's future together really cloudy (I can't see it lasting long if she doesn't take some serious steps...

Re: New Experiences

Really sweet, especially when Hanako decides to show her scarring fully to Natsume, and also the way she accepts Naomi's problems (her disability can become really embarassing as it happened here, on top of being dangerous if it happens in a bad place or moment). However, I didn't like the way Hanak...

Re: Gamefaq's KS Critique

What irks is not the dislike (or even hate) per se but the mirror-climbing made to "justify" it. When they are not trolls, they end up sounding like Jack Thompson while argumenting - which I think it's one of the worst insults you could throw at a videogamer. One of the few examples of a g...

Re: Gamefaq's KS Critique

Why give so much credit and discuss over such a poor review? And I say it not because of its low score, but because the author (a girl) also felt the need to make the Gamefaqs KS board know: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/650003-katawa-shoujo/61953830 Before I posted there, a lot of other users alre...
