In the classroom introduction scene it says there's a girl missing the thumb of her right hand, but you can't really tell which girl based on the picture. She should get a wooden thumb or something

It's either Suzu, Kotomi or the fat chick. :)

This would make the best KS2 imaginable. Even a good fanfic would suffice. I need this.

This is why everyone should be very thankful you aren't allowed to develop a sequel...Honestly, a pile of trash thrown together for the sake of "EVERYTHING GOT BETTER BECAUSE PLOT BULLSHIT"...That's the best idea to you?

When talking about a game that so heavily focuses on sex, that probably isn't the insult you meant it to be.

I have to admit that i agree. While i'm a bit saddened at the fact developers are not interested in any sort of fan adaptation/input at all (presumably no matter how good the creation was) it is very much for the better and a really understandable position.

Hell, fans can do whatever they like as far as I'm concerned. I just wouldn't want any of them doing anything as official as a sequel. :lol:

A sequel is pretty much impossible anyways.

And yeah, fan creations are a part of the popularity of modern anime, video games and related/internet media, bit of a double-edged sword but rather worth it in the end.

It would seem that the topic's premise has run out of steam, by the way.

It is the most interesting premise I have found so far. It would make a neat fanfiction, thats for sure.

There is nothing interesting in "Everyone magically got better, kthnxbai."

Everyone gets better, but only through selling their soul in exchange for magical powers /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\

More like "Look how I can 'fix' everyone's disabilities and they're all still broken"

Shizune is still over competitive and lonely
Hanako is still socially phobic
Rin is still incomprehensible and grim
Emi's DAD is still deeeeaaaaaaadddddd
Misha's still unable to let go of past loves
Lilly still was abandoned (Though her parents try to pick her back upin her endings so her problem is "solved" anyhow. Still, Lilly is Lilly, blind or not.)
Kenji is still a crazy conspiracy theorist.

The whole point is how the story isn't about disabled people, but just people. And yet, it would emphasize how integrated those disabilities are to the person in question, by watching what happens when they're taken away. A Shizune that gained her hearing... Could she count as a Shizune at all? How would it change her? How would Emi react when her legs grow back and she's completely unharmed from that car crash... and yet her father is still six feet under? Would she feel cheated? Would she learn how to run a third time, just to do what she knows?

It's hardly Kthnxbai. It's watching people react to a "positive" event, which isn't always positive. Then it's people reacting to other peoples reactions and then it cascades downward from there.

It's not so different from Hisao's "EVERYTHING GOT WORSE BECAUSE PLOT BULLSHIT", neh?
