Re: What Route Has the Most Text / Is the Longest?

So in pure numbers, Emi's route may be the 'longest'. But when you're actually playing through it, you won't see all 5,766 lines. Why not? Going through all the ends/paths isn't uncommon. I know I did. You may only see 3,000, while on Lilly's path you'll probably see the majority of those 4,791 lin...

Well we do have a "silent" game (aside from music obviously)... Seems like we are already at that compromise, no?

Re: What do you think?

I don't understand why you'd want Japanese voice acting for something that was never in Japanese to begin with. I think it's because the game is set in Japan, the characters are "speaking" Japanese (even if we are getting it in English), and it is imitating a Japanese visual novel. Having...

Re: Favourite Music

Generic Happy Music. I always find myself swaying or bobbing my head to it when it comes up in the game.

Re: Just looking for some advice, I guess.

It generally takes me about 4-5 hours to go through a route but even that isn't the kind of time some people can dedicate to something all at once. That said I don't know how to help you. If you don't have the spare time to sit and read through a whole route at once then you don't have the time, sim...

Re: Who was your first arc?

First time through I picked the options I personally would have picked and ended up on Shizune's path. After I finished her path 100% I went back through Act 1, did every option ( including getting Kenji's end while trying for Rin's, oopsy ), and made a save at the start of the other four girl's pat...

Everything is more awkward in Japan (well Anime Japan at least). Casual contact is eyebrow raising activity and confessions of love are heart attack inducing acts.

Re: What gender are most KS fans?

*Shrug* Just reading the opening post made it sound like he was "struck" by how many posters here were male. I guess I was simply surprised that he was surprised, and the argument he put forth "Well it's a romance so naturally that equals female fans" seemed questionable to me. P...

Re: What gender are most KS fans?

"Romance" doesn't necessarily = female fans irregardless of subject matter or genre. Given the type of work this is, it would surprising if this wasn't a male dominated fan base.

Re: What do you do to feel better after a night of the feels

I go to sleep if a series hits me too hard and usually feel better in the morning. Helps that I read and watch stuff at night before bed rather then during the day.

Re: Replaying KS

I haven't replayed the game yet but I'm planning to this week and I'm looking forward to it. Not so much to understand anything better (I didn't feel like I missed anything or was unsure the first time through on any route) but just to revisit those scenes that hit me the first time and refresh in m...

Re: An ongoing play through Rin's arc

I don't think Rin's comments were "unintentional" on her part (she said what she wanted to say using appropriate words) but at the same time I don't think she meant them as innuendo. All of her comments can be taken fairly literally and are appropriate to the situation. "Do you want m...

Re: Optical Illusions

Is it really "understanding something on a higher level"? She knows what a two dimensional picture is and knows what a three dimensional object is. She understands how vision works (again as well as she can) we even see that she is perfectly able to write out a note to hisao by herself (wh...

Re: Optical Illusions

I personally don't think you'd really need to be all that elaborate or go out of your way to provide sound/touch illusions. Lilly is a smart young woman who, while not having first hand experience with it, understands the concept of sight (as well as it is possible for her to at any rate). Simply ex...

Re: Team Shizune vs Team Lilly

If Hisao isn't drinking tea in Lilly's route, he's drinking coffee in all the others (when he drinks a hot beverage) which surely isn't any better. Of course he probably drinks more tea then coffee but still... As for the wine, he drinks it what three times total over the course of her entire route?...
