No.

Hisao is not Emi's first boyfriend.

I think they mention that in the script?
I was talking about her virginity

Recently, I've been wondering whether it would be feasible to assemble a team of amateurs and make a VN similar in scope to KS (not KS2). What made so many people (or at least enough to keep a project alive) willing to create a VN from a one page doujin? Was it a fluke gathering, widespread appeal of concept/characters, an organized drive by a few people, multiple/none of the above?

My money is on "dumb luck". :mrgreen: I'm a relative newcomer though, best to hear what crud has to say.

I'm subscribed to this thread. I get an email that tells me when someone posts anything here.

So when I saw a reply from Silent Cook I thought that I was in the clear.

But essentially, "dumb luck" is right.

We had a perfect storm of people that knew what they were doing, an interesting concept, and an EOLVN scene that was still relatively small. That last part is important, as it really helped us find each other.

It is still possible, but there are a lot more people involved in creating VNs these days, so finding a team that has the "right mix" of people that you want to work with is hard.

Is Takashi's band-aided ear a not so subtle reference to Van Gogh? Seeing how he was one of the artists' OCs, if I recall.

And what was the project Molly was a cameo of? Aura mentioned it way back but gave no specifics other than it was something the team made themselves.

I've got a general question for the devs(for the ones still checking in here at least), but how does it feel now that it's been this long since KS was made. Does it still resurface in your mind/life these days, or is it mostly forgotten as a long past project you've worked on.

It's something I feel like I'll never be able to completely forget, so I was curious how it felt for the writers of it.

Oh, sure. Easy to forget as getting a limb transplant. :twisted:

Yeah I think that something like Phantom Limb Syndrome might describe it well.

Even when you're not actively thinking about it, it's in the back of your mind.

Well, that's my take anyway

Some days I don't think about it at all, other days I get to thinking about it and still cannot wrap my head around the fact of its existence. It helps somewhat that I still get the odd message here and there from people discovering the game for the first time, which is somehow even weirder than anything else, although I guess the internet is forever so it's not terribly surprising.

Hello, I have a dispute with my friend. We both love Shizune route and we can see that characters eat something all the time. I think that just time-kill inserts, but my friend is think that author have some problems with that. So, does anybody know?

Out of sheer curiousity, are all route writers guys, or was there a lady among writers? Just curious.

Lilly's shown to wear white legwear underneath her school uniform skirt. Are those thigh-high socks/stockings or full tights/pantyhose?

(I'm commissioning art for a dakimakura; I requested tights, but the artist misunderstood and drew stockings in the preliminary sketch. Now I'm curious if Suriko or the artists who drew Lilly's sprites and CGs had one or the other in mind. The legs aren't visible at all in her final school uniform sprites, although the alpha sprite had them visible, and we know the legwear's still white from at least the Shizune battle CG and the player's guide cover.)

Edit (5/15): The commission is moving forward with tights, so I hope that's the answer! :lol:

here a question that may have been asked and answered a hundred times:

if someone were running a FAN manga or FAN animation based on KS' story, would be there any conditions?

- like is allowed to run it firstly on patreon (only for early access to the content) then published it for free, or monetization on youtube in case of videos

So I know that the devs often get questions about a potential Misha and/or Kenji route(s) and also routes for some of the other minor characters but I wonder, if a route for Hisao himself were added, how would such a route play out?
