Re: Japan to get Physical Release of Katawa Shoujo. Unfair.

unfair to the rest of the world You have to realize the hardcopies are not a service we do for the audience, they are for promoting KS. Our translation teams want to promote their work. We don't think KS needs any promoting in US or Europe. pay for something that's supposedly free The physical copi...

Re: Ask!

1) There was no specific inspiration 2) Probably just fine. They're Japanese kids so they'd respect my seniority. 3) For some reason, we always had the worst/most ridiculous/useless development discussions on Sundays, which became an informal tradition called "Shit Idea Sundays". Those ten...

Re: Ask!

Absolutely a coincidence. Most of the birthdays were randomly decided and astrology was never brought up.

Re: Artbook sold out forever ?

The artbook hardcopies are a unique one-time thing. Once the print run for each is sold out, they are sold out forever.

I believe there are still some copies of Imperfect Spectrum left that will be sold at this year's events in Japan, but the other books are sold out long ago.

Re: Ask!

I dunno, I guess? I think we probably require some kind of a critical mass of stuff to bother with a website for the studio itself (since we haven't made one so far in the soon 8 years of our existence). How much that is, I couldn't say.

Re: Ask!

Neither of them are inspired by anything specific, certainly not by Rei.

Re: Ask!

We didn't choose them. KS is based on an image by the artist RAITA, which is also the source of the disabilities. The details, such as the extent or origin of each disability, were chosen to fit the stories we wanted to tell. Here's an extra thing for the people who already knew that: the personalit...

Occasionally I see really misinformed people talk about KS, I wish they'd get in this thread instead.

Re: Ask!

Sure. The thing is, most of the questions asked thus far, and most that will be asked, are trivia. They're simple to answer provided whoever replies remembers the answer. Deeper questions that prompt real thinking are rarer and also have a wider range of possibilities that hasn't really been explore...

Re: Ask!

A few pages back there's a post about KS's name that's sort of related. We absolutely wouldn't have picked Katawa Shoujo ourselves, or probably any title in Japanese. The name is so direct and audacious, even all offensiveness aside, that I doubt we would've come to consider it seriously.
