How did he steal books from the library? Locate a good hiding place where he could stash them? Unlike Lilly, he doesn't have a cane or a service animal (RIP Niji), or a Hanako, so how does he find his away around school if he doesn't have a clue where anything is? On the final day of Act 1 he tells Hisao that he's only "legally blind", but then later, at the Manly Picnic, proceeds to brag about how his mom sent him some "expensive Single Malt". So you know, he says some shit. Grains of salt are taken.

There's a scene in Shizune Act 3 that, to me, suggests that he gets along just fine despite (supposedly) only being able to recognize things an inch in front of him

ke "I got you one, too. Hope you like grape juice. We're even for the pizza, now."

Not only was he able to quickly find his way to Hisao's secret vending machine and back, but he was able to correctly identify the grape soda button.

And then a little later in the scene, he's sitting across from Hisao while knocking back a can of soda when this happens:

"I spit my drink all over the book I'm still holding, damaging it beyond any hope of repair. I quickly check the back and see its suggested retail price is 7900 yen. I think I might have a heart attack."

ke "Wow, destroyed. Shouldn't have done that, though, they take vandalism super seriously here. You're gonna get caned."

How would he know the book was destroyed? Hisao doesn't even mention that he was reading a book, and it's not even implied that he's very close to Hisao.

It gets even harder for me to take his legal blindness claim at face value when I think about how he and Yuuko were once an item. Nervous, neurotic Yuuko, leading a blind boy around when she already has so much to deal with? I'm not buying it. So to all the devs that wrote for Kenji, and especially Silentcook, what is Kenji's condition, really? Was he really conceived as being virtually blind, or was his poor eyesight played up for comic effect?

At approximately what time will it come out, or is the preparation taking long time to finish?

I think ive finally found an answer! Skip to 14:14

Second - sorry for my bad japan english.
And immediately I want to ask, albeit an obvious (as part of the branching of the routes), but a very important question for Hisao's health.
Why, why he did stop running in Lilly’s root? Or, rather, why, having started to run, would he have tied for Amy, or Rin? I understand that this is a necessary condition for setting the “flags” of the fork of the roots, but ... What prevented him from doing the physical training, but still falling in love with Lilly, or any other girl?
Running in the mornings, albeit without overstrain, and spending the rest of the day and evening with Lilly would make Hisao much healthier and save Lilly from many sorrows. Not to mention that a second heart attack would not have hit him, while he trying to catch up with her in airport. And maybe, being more courageous and decisive because of the physical training, he would not have led to an attempt to break off relations at all.

Of course, then there would be no such tension and a storm of emotions (I cried all three times all the time from her departure to the very scene after the credits), but believe me - physical training would be better for Hisao and Lilly. After all, we all love them and want happiness and a long life.
