Is there any chance of the devs letting the Japanese translation team revamp some of the Japanese text/references in-game? I'm thinking specifically of Iwanako's letter, but then there's also little things like the distance between Miyagi and Saitama prefectures and being able to get a turkey sandwich that would stand out to Japanese players.

Also, why did Hisao just happen to be carrying around a condom in his pocket in Hanako's route? "Just in case"?

Anonymous has a question for you. Is it paint?

Here's a random one for you. Shouldn't it be hard, considering the story is set in Japan, for people to pronounce Lily's name? Or is it just a translation convention?

It's paint.

Pronunciation of "Lilly" isn't hard, even for Japanese.

Having gone beyond the original art and created a slew of side characters to feature in the finished product, you often state that the reason other routes don't exist is to stay true to RAITA's drawing. Having said that, if that decision was not made, which original character (male or female) would you have liked to have a route for, and why?

For sure, many many things. Nothing's ever perfect, and KS definitely isn't. Even when we released, there were parts we were not 100% content with, but deemed merely "good enough". That's the thing with making something, at some point you have to decide that it's finished.

If there's reason to, sure.

Just in case.

I wouldn't have added any paths either way. But to entertain the question, I suppose Misha would be the natural first choice because it would build well from act 1 and shizune's path.

I shouldn't ask questions while half asleep. That should be "ARE you guys aware of Runbros?"

I don't mean to downplay Aura's view on this, but would some of the other Dev's like to provide their opinion on this question as well? I think it would be interesting to see how the various preferences may or may not differ.
