I never grew nearly as attached to her as I did with Emi. While I think you should definitely check out the other routes too, they might leave you disappointed. At least, that's how it was for me. Really liked Emi, and Rin was somewhat interesting. But the rest didn't do the trick anymore. I feel ...

For starters... Thank you, Oddball, for taking the time to state what others apparently thought was too obvious. And now, with your list, I can see where you are coming from. But even still I can't really agree. To me, Rin was always the one (and only) who didn't seem to fit her initial image, at ...

Well, do tell, Xanatos. What have those claimed wrong impressions been? That Lilly was cruel? Shizune was shy...?

I don't think it does. I mean, no-one ever complains they got the wrong expression of ANY other girl in the game?

I've seen a lot of people anticipating Rin being a "Bro". A friend you can hang out with and share things with that most girls wouldn't be interested in talking about and every now and then Rin would make some off-hand (*ahem*) remark (like the problem in your pants line, or the girlish figure line ...

Does anyone else think that Rin didn't get the greatest Act 1 introduction? To me, she came off as "that weird girl that's so confusing and almost feels like talking to Kenji." I can almost hear Out of the Loop, lol For me, that was a major bummer - for years (after the demo, before the game came ...

What do you think Rin would do after graduation? Perhaps she will just... muck about. Of the three girls I've met (Emi, Rin, Shizune) she seems really lost for direction. While it never comes up, could she live on some sort of disability benefit? That way she could do just what she does. Being Rin ...

Sorry. I didn't really think of those as spoilers. I suppose the first one isn't, actually, but the second one seems to be? Because I haven't played Hanako's path yet, and don't remember something like that happening in Act 1... Well, in any case, I suppose I've already been spoiled about pretty ...

So, just being curious, what do you think of their two big scenes together example example example Not to sound like a partypooper, but could you people still stick to using the spoiler-tags, when discussing other routes on threads similar to this? Pretty please? Not all of us have completed the ...

Well, they're not all using Bluetooth headsets and flying around in jetpacks, so obviously it must take place in the distant past. I always imagine contemporary stories happening "right now", that is, with no specific date - unless otherwise indicated. KS is a difficult one in that it obviously isn ...

The writer did have other parts of Japanese culture that didn't come up elsewhere in the game (the train system, Tanabata, student cleaning duties) As we are already treading slightly off-topic, might I ask what you mean by those, specifically? (Okay, the festival thing is clear, and I suppose ...

I don't usually read CrackedDotCom, but that article was somewhat fun. Brough back memories of those wacky "game reviews" SomethingAwfulDotCom used to do. Or perhaps still does? I haven't read that site in ages either... Anyhoo, how come this is the first time I've heard of this deiz thingie ...

My point was that she is living a lie and needs to reassure it to herself, and she wants to get back at Shizune for breaking her heart. Two birds with one stone. My take on it is that she's been living a lie, and - in a way - has just now come to terms with it. The only thing she's unsure about is ...

Dr. Robotnik wrote:She was obviously confused and I think she either wanted to put herself further into her fake persona or stick it to Shizune.

What's that "fake persona" then? Is she planning on fighting her depression by sleeping with anyone who's willing to "comfort" her?

Might I recommend rereading her route one more time with a lot more care? That's probably not going to happen, especially because it would be so time consuming, and - in the end - meaningless, for me. While I admit my "playstyle" (that is, reading while being pretty blasted ;) does tend to make me ...
