More questions.

Do lives of the girls whom Hisao is no seeing change as well? Every path I take brings a change to Hisao's and the other's life. While absent of his influence do their life change as well?

Sweets make you fat and your teeth to fall out sooner than they should. Alcohol damages ones brain and liver. Not sure which one I'd opt for :S

Maybe, we just don't find out how.

Ok this has been bugging me since I replayed the vn... does Hisao has anything else wrong with his heart besides Arrythmia? Because that alone is not that huge of a deal that it needs an army of medications, if it's really that erratic he would have gotten hooked up to a pacemaker. There's a few different types of arrythmias, most of them not life threatening. I only ever saw "arrythmias" mentioned in the game. Was there something I missed?

I don't mean this to sound like I am calling out the writers for anything, or overly criticizing them, I'm just curious. ^_^;

He has a very serious case of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_QT_syndrome

Okay, another question:

I love the little snippets of art on torn paper signaling each new Act. Is there anywhere I can go to find these as larger img files? I would love to make a banner for my Backloggery using Emi's Act 3 Art.

EDIT:

Also, how long are Emi/Hisao's morning runs?

No, KS's assets won't be released. I doubt Hisao has the stamina to go on for too long, especially at first.

Who is the inspiration for Jigoro? Because whenever he speaks, he reminded me a lot of Chris Jericho from WWF, lot's of trash talking and self ego boosting.

Hisao doesn't keep track of how far he goes because it would just be depressing.

Emi goes about three miles, plus all the sprints while Hisao cools down.

What happened to the Shimmie? It doesn't seem to be working any more. On that note, the "Don't worry, it's just a game" picture that usually goes at the top of the page seems to be missing, too.

Here's a question about Molly:

I know she's a... background character to the game itself (if that), but she seems to be popular in fanfics, so I was wondering, what club do you think she would be in? She's got the same problem as Emi (DBK amputee), but for some reason, I can't picture her being on the Track team... She seems like the nerdy type, so maybe an astronomy club?

The forum style is broken because the image resources and stuff are stored on the shimmie subdomain, which got inadvertedly broken during a recent thing we did to the server to try to get it not melt weekly under the traffic we get. We're working on fixing it.

Who knows. We always were flippant about this kind of superfluous information because we recognize how useless it is. Many "canon" things about KS's setting are a complete whim of one or two devs that none of us actually gives any fucks about (for instance, the names of the students in Hisao's class). As for another example, the height/weight/bust/hip/waist measurements for the girls on the KS site were randomized every time the page was loaded for a long long time. I could answer your question with the first thing that comes to my mind, but it's meaningless information.

Choir club.

Sorry if it has been asked before but i'll ask anyway...
Has there been any talk of a possible follow up or sequel, or any official KS related release from you guys?
Just letting you know, id pay for another game like this, it has touched me, truly, can't say im a very emotive guy, but this... wow.

Because we don't want to give a carte blanche for derivatives of KS, specifically (but not limited to) these two kinds: potentially shitty ports of KS to other platforms that might be substantially worse experience for the reader, and other works ripping off assets from KS, be it "sequels" or unrelated things. For us, the easiest way to do it is to use the No Derivatives license. In practice, we of course allow almost every derivative work, there even are subforums here dedicated to them.
