i personally don't see any of them as having had any previous sexual encounters, but who knows there could be a surprise in store.

Not necesarrily, take Fate/Stay Night for example....

*coughSakuracough*

Sakura is a...special case.

Hanako and Sakura are not alike, unless you consider long, purplish hair to be indicative of personality.

And like I said, this VN doesn't need that kind of drama; otherwise the other devs would've let crud have Hanako throw Hisao in front of a train or whatever the hell it was that crud wanted to do.

What you have to remember about fate stay night is that it's a completely different kind of visual novel to katawa shoujo, fate stay night has heroines attached to each scenario e.g fate stay night for saber and unlimited blade works for rin etc. while katawa shoujo works as; each girl is the scenario.

also fate stay night was more events based than romance based.

I'm just surprised that this thread has gotten all the way to three pages without someone making an XP joke.

Well you know, if you think about it Rin seems to have a lot of skill points invested in dexterity, strength, and intelligence. I mean, being able to paint with your feet? That's a lot of int. Being able to maneuver your feet correctly to do things people normally need hands for? That's a lot of dex and strength right there.

In terms of XP, I'd say Rin is levels ahead of all the other girls.

What was her dump stat? Wisdom, maybe? And we all know Hisao's dump stat...

Probably says it in the D&D stats thread.

Hanako

Well there's only one answer to that

Hanako - Ummm... it would be totally out of character? Unless it happened before she was burned, but I don't want to think about that. Of course, there is also the slim possibilty that there might be something related to the fire, and bad memories.

Wasn't she burned in early childhood?

Oh god.

OH GOD!

Anyways, back on topic.

My take on things is this:
Rin>>>Shizune>Lilly>Emi>>>Hanako

To be fair, the situation was fairly rage-inducing, and for all intents and purposes it's the ending of the series until further notice...

That would explain his pedobear-smile in this
Hanako family picture.

I was starting to wonder if I was the only one who had such suspicions, glad I am not the sole man who is so paranoid .

What if Hanako is fine with her scars but her quiet-attitude comes from mental trauma as a child(possibly caused by dad/mom/both).

Seriously doubtful. Her hair and manners seem to indicate otherwise. And the parents are usually left out of a VisualNovel "True Love" scenario because they would be hindrances for the romance. Or is there a Dating Sim where you have to ask the father of your darling to let him allow you to go out with her?

But I have to admit I find the idea - as strange as it sounds - appealing. Since Hanako would have a huge complex about contact with men, Hisao must be a special case.
She is fighting her traumatic experiences through her shy and awkward tête-à-têtes with Hisao which would make her stronger than most people assume her to be.

Great God, a Hanako, who is (in the final game) mentally stronger than Shizune, would make my day!

Hanako always struck me as mentally strong, strangely enough. What happened to her could make people give up on themselves and life, and Hanako hasn't. Sure, she's no Pollyanna, but she's somehow still keeping going. Not saying she's going to butt heads with Shizune any time, just that despite everything that happened to her, she's not broken. Just... damaged. Hope that makes sense. >.>
