There you go, looking for an argument again so you can come to your favorite little characters defense. It's almost cute. Here's a tip though, next time, if want me to clarify something I've said, make sure it's something that i actually said.Megumeru wrote:Oh, really?Oddball wrote:Now the one decision is a bad, but what makes that even worse is the character an themes of he story. In Act 1, you get Shizune's attention by taking chances and standing up for yourself. She says how she likes people that aren't worthless and actually go out and do things, so for the rest of the game you ... follow her around aimlessly doing whatever she says with no input of your own.
Nothing i settled, nothing is really resolved, all the drama is handled by ignoring it until it goes away. Hisao's health? never an issue. Shizune's problems with her family? Not going to handle it. Misha's depression? Ignore it until she starts acting like herself again. Shizune's sudden declaration that she really is a poor leader and doesn't know what she wants to do. lasts about three seconds before she says she knows what she's going to do now and is going to change... and you never actually see her do it, at least not in her route. In Lilly and Hanako's route,you see her actually opening up to people and trying to help or make amends.
On top of al o that, never once do Shizune and Hisao really feel like a couple. They have sex twice but both those scenes come out of nowhere and are never referenced again. I don;'t think Shizune ever actually says "I love you," or refers to Hisao as her boyfriend.
Plus lots of people just really don't like her personality.
Do tell me how everything is resolved in Lilly's route
At no point did I say EVERYTHING was wrapped up in Lilly's route, plenty of things where, but not everything. As opposed to Shizune's route, where almost nothing was wrapped up and even the few things they did wrap up tended to come right out of nowhere and were only half heatedly addressed by a line or two of dialogue.
