What the fuck? I'm fucking depressed right now.

Go and have a manly picnic with Kenji. This will cheer you up. Well, or kill you...

After completing the entire game, it became clear to me THE MANLY PICNIC WAS JUST A ELABORATE COVER FOR KENJI TO MURDER US FOR ATTEMPTING TO GO DOWN THE KENJI ROUTE! KNOWING THAT THE FEMINIST REVOLUTION WOULD START IF NONE OF THE FIVE GIRLS WERE DISTRACTED BY HISAO, HE TOOK VENGEANCE UPON HISAO FOR DOOMING ALL MEN

I mean, come on. It's only logical!

You're close, but not quite on the mark, friend!

Kenji DID want to murder Hisao. It's well known that Kenji has access to a time machine. He knew there were 5 girls at Yamaku who had the potential to spark the Feminist Revolution. They would only do so if they got into a relationship with a man, as the scrolls hath foretold.

Kenji knew he couldn't kill all 5 girls and get away with it. When Hisao came to Yamaku, he saw the boy lusting after the girls. He would attempt to foil his courting of their hearts, but would fail. He'd go back in time, try again, but only push Hisao on a different 'route', as he called them. After Hisao had gone on a 'route' with each girl, Kenji knew he had only onc choice.

Manly. Picnic.
Yes I just wasted time typing all this up.

One day (January 4th next year?), we need to all get together and have the biggest, manliest picnic ever.

What say you, KS forumites?

This must be done, though the venue better not be the roof of a building (I can just imagine all of us falling one by one to our deaths >.>).

There can be only one!

Would be the most epic thing ever!

Where in the world would this picnic be? On the roof of Brown?

Haha, if we could find a way to make this work, that would be pretty epic.

There actually is a scene in the game that supports this. I forget which route, but Kenji does mention that if he wanted to kill someone he'd push them off a roof and make it look like an accident.

WTF is this? I don't even.

Dis necro...
I got manly picnic after Emi's route by just taking choices i hadn't
Mainly not agreeing with lily in the argument, not pushing myself, and not saying what my issue is while walking with lily and rin.

I always get this sort of ending first because I'm too busy getting a feel for the game to choose well. Though, the endings never KILLED ME before. Harsh...

This happened.

I think you meant 'death by descent'.

Accidentally read a spoiler on how this route ended, so I tried it for the heck of it and sure enough... I completed another 2% of the game. Knowing what would happen and purposely making all the "wrong" choices to ensure it made it somewhat amusing rather than any bother.
