The wrong reaction to a grave mistake.

[Jobriq]

You could always talk to Emi's super hot MILF of a mom and thus avoid Hisao making this "grave" mistake. Unless You don't like hot mom's....

Honestly, I expected that would lead to a bad (for a certain definition of "bad") end on my first playthrough...

ahem.

Then Emi ends up watching the whole thing, seeing the Hisao/Meiko magic.

Gives her "You promised" line a whole new meaning.

Also what I expected would happen...

[Shockproof Jamo]

Somethings been bugging me since the first time I watched Emi's route.

Did they use the wrong Emi sprite for her reaction to Hisao's 'take it to your grave' zinger?

This is, as we know, what we get:


And lets be honest it looks like she's smiling or being cheeky. Several let's plays that I've watched all comment it doesn't look right.

Meanwhile this is from the "english results" scene in Lilly's route:


Now to me that's what angry looks like, and yet she's only messing about there. And I don't think you see that sprite anywhere else.

What gives?

Incidently, that scene is great - the whole 'death is coming for me' bit, Lilly and Hanako smiling, a rare appearance of the Rin Grin, Generic Happy Music kicking in. It makes me smile.

No mistake there. That's Emi in her crazy psychobitch mode, at the point where all reasonable thought has gone out the window for her. If you didn't pay attention, the game occasionally dropped hints that she's perfectly capable of that sort of behaviour. During the altercation at Meiko's house, even Meiko seemed to be afraid of Emi, suggesting that she's seen this before. Which brings up another question: I wonder how dangerous Emi could be in an actual physical fight, considering her heavy physical conditioning? She'd seem to be perfectly capable of kicking ass.

Her leg blades could be dangerous.... especially if she sharpened the edges

[Lianam]

She'd seem to be perfectly capable of kicking ass.

Considering the fact she has no legs, that makes it all the more embarrassing...

I wake up at night in a cold sweat to visions of Emi clocking some poor sod in the nuts with those blades of hers. Lithe body, powerful legs, psychocrazy emotional state, hard composite legs -- I feel the feels.

If there's another game ever made after the Rise of Kenji, it has to be an Emi fighting game.

Or a Rin GTA game...

[Auratus]

Well. I can say that two sprite gave me different feeling.

Say, Which one do you think it is more threatening between,

"Goddammit, I will kill you. I will rip your heart out. You liar!"

or

"My beloved boyfriend... I suggest you.... to run away.... as fast as you can... before I lose control of myself."

(Honestly, the above picture made me chill in most of my bone, again. My subconscious tells me that "Dude, Run away or she will disintegrate you with everything she have")

The first is more threatening because there's an actual direct threat. But the second is more likely to end badly...

I dunno, I'm put more on the defensive to highly suppressed rage than yelling.

Yeah, but that isn't the point. An actual threat is by definition more threatening than an implied one.

Besides, I don't think Emi can really bring herself to stab anybody in the crotch with her running blades...
