In before a couple of devs tearing some people's balls off.

Only a few of us were Channers when joining the project, and even fewer than that by now.

Man, you go away for a weekend and miss quite a bit here sometimes.

I'll admit I haven't completely cuaght up with this thread, but lemme throw in my bit here anyway (freaking panel...)

The Hanako "Rape" scene.
To clarify, this is what we called it internally. Basically, in a long-lost arm of the story Hanako was put onto heavy medication for one reason or another. Hisao and Hanako had already started dating at this point.
Hisao goes to see Hanako, and she basically says "If you want me, you can have me". Hisao, conflicted, takes the opportunity, and through the most ridiclious chain of events, dies. I'm sure there is a TV Trope for this, but I'm not dumb enough to go looking for one.

I think I once likened it to Statutory rape, hence the "rape" name. It was suprisingly resiliant to being killed, although it had many iterations. I'm not a fan of rape in these types of games, or rape in general. However it did open some interesting channels in the relationship, and so I kept a toned-down varation of the scene in the game for a while. It was probably in the "working draft" script for about a year.



On the upside, I have learnt a valuable lesson about what not to say in public.

Also I swore off 4chan before I had even heard of KS. Way to stereotype.

That's a fail there, Missy.
Also channers aren't only from /b/.

While the prevalence of hentai and other pornographic material might play a part in the low frequency of sex in Japan, I think another is the crowded living conditions.

Less privacy means fewer opportunities , I mean this is a nation that builds hotels just to have sex in.

Starts like http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/M ... ikeInAComa, then turns into a Karmic Death if Hisao seems to deserve it (if not, Death by Sex/Out with a Bang).

But Hanako agreed...so unless the drugs fuck up her head then it's not rape?

I think the implication was that the drugs did fuck with her head. I wonder what could have come up that would force Hanako to become heavily medicated... intriguing.

That heavily medicated too. Yet still allowed to run around the school freely.

Who said she was allowed to run around the school? Maybe she stayed at her room, or a hospital or something.

Without someone keeping an eye on the obviously crazy girl?

Iirc in that plot she was institutionalized to some mental hospital. End of retarded argument.

Start of mental hospital argument...

Which only raises more questions. What kind of mental hospital would let Hisao be left alone with her? Other than a shit one.
Also I'm guessing she went suicidal or something?

Look at the "Yandere" topic that is currently going. Obviously she tried to kill someone.

When I said "end of argument" that meant "get back to topic". This thread started going downhill somewhere around page 6 but it might still be salvageable. Prove that I'm not wrong or face my full wrath.
