You said the school shold pay for Misha's tuition in return for her services to Shizune. That's getting Shizune a translator for free, right?
(But they could lower Misha's fees if her services really are that valuable.)
Perhaps I didn't make that specific statement as straight forward as I hoped. What I meant is that instead of Yamaku having to hire and pay for a translator, they are instead being paid by the translator, in the form of Misha's tuition bills. In other words, Misha is paying to attend Yamaku Academy in order to be Shizune's translator.

Come to the Dark Side, Demios. Say the words; Misha Must Die!
Don't tell me this is turning into a Kill Bill-type scenario. Kinda unnecessary, dont you think?
This is the oldest active non-stickied thread and it really deserves to crawl under a rock and die or get a stake through it heart and burial in a crossroads at midnight. I realy don't care about Shizune's trained parrot. Misha is there as a tool to tell Shizune's story; she is a spear-carrier. To quote Mongo from "Blazzing Saddles, "Mongo just pawn in game of life." (another funny as hell movie I bet most modern schoolboys don't know about.)
Yet folks continue to worry the question of her disability like a junkyard dog gnawing a bone. I find this odd and quirky behavior. So, as far as I'm concerned I agree with the little boy played by Fred Savage in "The Princess Bride"; "Murdered by Pirates is good!".

Hey, it's not like the forum is a whirlwind of activity and there are necrobumpers perched over the thread bumping it back to the top whenever it falls off the first page It's fine if you don't like the character, but don't rain on the parade of others!

It's just irking some people that the question is still asked. Anyone who reads over the longer and more serious posts and especially the posts the devs made can deduce that we won't get an answer and that it will probably a device in the future unfolding of Shizune's storyline.
We just have to accept that Misha's diasbility (if she has one) is a mystery to us as of now. Like the mystery why I always end up with with less socks after every laundry or the great secret of the meaning of life and what it has to do with gratuitous pictures of penises which annoy the censors.
And if the whirlwind of activity in the discussion forum is to exciting for your constitution, feel free to contribute to these threads:

I'm an old crotchety fart and it is my job to do that.
I simply find it odd to obsess over a minor character. I tried to express it using a bit of mildly amusing hyperbole. I suppose I never will understand the reason for the parade in the first place. To me it is much the same as obsessing over Rin's paintbrushes, Lilly's cane, or Emis prosthetic legs.
I suppose speculating on Misha's disability is the the KS version of counting the number of angels dancing on the head of a pin.

Fuck yeah those are some of my favorite movies. And fuck yeah Spaceballs reference Deimos. Another one of my favorites.
Anyways, I speculate that people guessing Misha's disability is like counting sheep until the game gets released, so we can all go to sleep. That is, we keep guessing and being preoccupied with it that the game's final release answers all the questions about everything and anything, and that it also just comes upon us.
Now, how about LUDICROUS SPEED!!!! GO!!!!!!! that would be an awesome photoshop with Kenji doing the yelling instead of Dark Helmet
Well admittedly, on a slow news day in the forum speculation about small things is better than nothing at all. As proof of the slowness look how easily we got diverted onto quoting dialogue from Mel Brooks movies.

I fail to see anything wrong with quoting Mel Brooks movies. But you still got a point. However, despite how slow the forums here may seem, I'll still easily take it over the chaos of 4chan. Much more intelligent and what-not.

Shhh! The idjits will be back in a flash if you mention they are gone.
Seriouly, I don't want to derail the thread, but dang the concept is kind of played out. I can't think of the last time I read a plausible cause for Misha to be there. But it is to be expected since everyone is guessing from about 5 or 6 vauge clues from Act 1. I'm sure the full story will reveal more.

Yeah, the final release should reveal all we would want to know about Misha. The theory of her dieing does sound like a very intriguing plot device, but killing off a major character like her is like killing off Morpheus in the first Matrix movie.
