No, of course you're making sense. I'm right there with you, and I'm craving something that gives me that same rush that my first playthrough of KS did. Just...not more KS. It's like when somebody makes a sequel to your favorite film even though the original ended on the perfect note to begin with.
Yeah thats pretty much it, It isn't necessary, but to be able to experience the same feeling again would be magical, It's truly one of the greatest experiences I've ever had, it's done so much more than just be entertainment xD

It's really hard to find the same magic that you had on the same play through, unless you have a dakimakura which are nice :D, but if i could make a suggestion. Fate/Stay night was good and some anime you could try based on VNs. Amagami, Majikoi - Oh! Samurai Girls, Clannad, and Kanon were nice.

Anyone know the choices to get all the different scenes in lily's route? I would look at the full flowchart but I don't want to spoil myself too much.

If I'm not mistaken, the good end gets you all her scenes.

You are right, Lilly's good ending is the only one you need to get all her scenes/CG. I don't think that's the same with 100% completion though.

You do get all her scenes with the good ending, but you need to do the neutral ending to get 100% completion.

If you only want/care for 100% Library, you can afford to miss Lilly's bad ending (as well as Emi's, in fact) completely. All you really get for going thru all endings is the last picture in the Gallery... which is, honestly, not worth it at all <_<.

I love this route, best route by far.

If you list the positives:

-Hanako has advanced on her life. Is no longer a shut in, insecure wreck that can't talk to anybody.
- Akira ends up going to the airport with her boyfriend (In Shizunes playthrough and in Hanakos we see them both going to Scotland, although one can only speculate if they both permanently end up there.
- Lilly and Shizune patch things up, which in no other playthrough they do.
- Hisao has his future career path sorted out.
- Obviously ending up with Lily


I could list multiple more reasons, but really, the ending is on such a high and it was such an emotional rollercoaster there.

I see a few complaints about some cliche moments, such as the airport dash but really, people need to consider that so long as something is done well, that's all that matters, quality over originality. If something is original and crap/mediocre, it still pales in comparison to something cliche and excellently done. And, it is romance people, you can't get more cliche than romance.

For my own personal reasons, this is my first played VN and I absolutely loved it. If anything, Lillys character has reminded me what sort of woman I want in real life. Someone that values honesty, integrity, who is mature, classy yet not stuck up and a full list of other positive qualities that make for a great partner/relationship. Which is a good thing for me, since I took a bad hit with a girl who I inadvertantly fell in love with IRL, who has terrible qualities about her but was fun/cute to be with and it went horribly between us. This route reminds me of what kind of woman I'm searching for and why, even if I'm heartbroken over my ex, why it never would have worked out with her in the long run. Weird how I can pick that up for a game, but there you go, it's helped me get over her a little and remember that there are girls out there IRL just like Lily <3.

Very well said and I whole heartedly agree with you on the points you made about the route itself, And about Lilly being the type of woman you/I want in life, Katawa shoujo is for lack of a better word, Amazing and I love it so much, ( it was also my first VN :3 ) It isn't weird to get these sorts of feelings from anything, especially something like KS which is just so well made and evokes so many different emotions within you, I loved it and will never forget it for as long as I live.

while KS wasn't my first VN, it's the only one i've ever held so much respect for. so much so that well, for lack of better words; i wasn't playing for the same reason most people play VN's. i assume most of us feel this way... KS is really so well written that you can't help but want to believe everything is real.
