Have Your Parents ever Confronted You about Katawa Shoujo?

[Munchenhausen]

Only three friends know I played KS.
Two were friends that I tried to wrangle into it by spamming them over Steam with "Play Cripple Fucker 9000!". They both declined politely.

The other one was a lady friend from way back, from my otaku days. I had major feels after Emi stole my Waifu Virginity and I seeked her advice. Turns out she plays a few VNs herself.
Mainly Brother/Sister romances from the sister's Point of View. Probably because she's an only child.

To this day, she asks if I've cut my legs off yet and I ask her if she's found her brother.
The banter is strong with this one.

[Potato]

I ask her if she's found her brother.

...Nope. Not even gonna go there.

[Comrade]

Is that you, nee-san?

[SpunkySix]

I ask her if she's found her brother.

...Nope. Not even gonna go there.

I'm not even gonna begin to think about how impossible that'd be to explain.

[Pyramid Head]

Stop right the fuck there. Right. The fuck. There. 'Bout to get genre savvy up in this biznitch. This is the exact point where we go flying off the rails and Cook ends up coming in 50 posts later, shaking his head and making longing glances at his frying pan of ban.

I'm rerailing this shit before it even starts going there. Fuck the police, I'mma follow the laws:

Where exactly does KS fall on your parent's/friend's scales of acceptable/unacceptable, with 1 being awful and 10 being totally accepting?

Oh fine, be that way. I won't go into details about how Final Fantasy XIII is one of the worst written games ever made and how every action Square Enix made in the 360/PS3 era was practically a bold faced admission that they no longer had any idea what the fuck they were doing. To answer your question...


My Mom: 10 if she never actually goes through it herself. 1 if she does. My mom would definitely interpret Hisao and Hanako's "Good" ending as Hisao raping Hanako.

My Dad: 8. He's mostly open minded, though would be hit hard by some of the intentional squick.

My Sister: She likes Twilight. I don't trust her opinion on literature.

"Skull Boy" (my comedic foil and friend for going on 15 years): 5. While he would be fine with Lilly and Shizune, he might handle the amputee fucking and the Hanako not-rape poorly.

"Danny Boy": I have no idea. Probably 9, but i don't know about what type of shit he's into.

"Toby": No clue. He's changed so much since he's had kids i can't predict how he'd react to something even vaguely sexual.

"Flo": 10. Her favorite character was Yukko, though she agreed with me that Kenji should have been excised.

"Amber": 10. Her favorite was Emi. Curiously her fiance is a woman who is only around 5' tall and who has brown hair.
...okay to be fair, from what i've heard Sarah is well developed and looks more like Shizune.

"Sarah": 8. She felt Shizune's arc was very badly handled, though her personal history might have contributed to it. Not because she's a lesbian, but because she too has daddy issues.
Her favorite was Hanako. And she said Kenji was goofy even by her standards.

"Kitten": 9. She generally seemed fine with Katawa Shoujo, though didn't like it.

"Tim": See Kitten.

"Gluten Freeto": She seemed pretty open minded. Probably a 9 in that she'd be fine with it but might not like it.

"I Never Caught the Spelling": Probably 10. If we agreed so frequently on horror movies she's probably open minded enough to go for Katawa Shoujo.

"JA Punk": Not sure. Probably 10.

There are a few others, though i tend to avoid discussing sexual things with people over twice my age.

Start calling her Kirino. Refuse to explain why.

[A big list of scores]

That's an intriguingly high proportion of girls having played…

She's already claimed Kirino is her Spirit animal

I'm just gonna go ahead and embarrass myself now... I don't get what you're on about

If the whole thing goes too far, grab your wok of lock.

I'll get my coat.

As long as we're on puns, since IIRC 'Cook is a paramedic, might we not also label him the medic of edit?

DON'T quote images that were just posted, people...

...I tried. :p

Yay! I'm glad, feel free to use it if you wish. Like, not on me hopefully, just in general.

And Munch, I was just saying, trying to explain why you're reading an incest VN and even remotely attempting to justify the romance in it would be insane.

[Comrade]

It's not illegal of they like it, right?

That is how laws work.

The phrase, or the side-discussion?
