Best moments?

So far I've played through everything but Lily's Arc. But I'd have to say that the Good ending for Hanako was by far my favorite moment. Her whole arc in general made me choke up on multiple occasions. I have no connections to her (Emotionally/Physically) whatsoever. But it was extremely emotional for me.

Best moments? All of Lilly's arc. You've got a lot to look forward to.

I'm actually glad you played through every arc except Lilly's. You're in for the best in my opinion.

One does not simply say that they have played Katawa Shoujo
Without playing Lilly's arc.

Heh, it's now been a while since I've played some of the arcs (Emi's was first back on like 8th Jan, followed by Shizunes like 13th Jan, followed by Lilly like 1st Feb, followed by Hanako like 5th Feb). I figure I'll post exceptional good and bad scenes I remember from each arc, although bear in mind my memory ain't great, so if I forget bits I apologise.
Emi - Best
"If you're still alive, you can keep going."
The track meet, when Emi was at her Emi-est.
"I need to use your window."
Confession v2 in the cemetry (I really liked it)
"...Anal." + "...we're never doing that again."
Emi - Worst
Hisao utterly unable to work out that Emi's father was dead.
Getting thrown out of Emi's house (bad route /wrist)
Shizune - Best
Love triangle
It tore me apart, but Shizune's bad ending.
Winning the cat doll for Shizune <3
Shizune - Worst
Jigaro bringing a sword into school (wtf?)
The fishing trip with Lilly. Just felt a bit weird.
Hidaki
The fact that I really can't remember anything from acts 2, other than there was a festival somewhere in it, and Hisao confessed at the end of Act 2.
Lilly - Best
CORNFIELDS <3333333
Akira really shone in this one.
Lilly + Hanako really had some chemistry
Dat music box.
Going shopping with Lilly for Hanako's doll.
Lilly - Worst
the bit before Dat music box
Healthy Adolescent Sex Drive (just felt... wrong for her)
Hanako - Best
In the park (although again, it broke mah heart in twain >.< HANAKO) And I'm actually tearing up IRL just thinking about it again now.
Playing snooker with her.
Neutral ending. It makes me rage more than any other ending, but it was well done and entirely fitting.
Hanako - Worst
Hulk rage. It felt a bit like Hisao was being purposely dumb. I counted about 5-7 signs which I would've noticed which were very obvious "BACK THE FUCK OFF" signs. Having said that, the rage scene itself needed to be done, and worked very well.
In defence of Hanako's arc, I played it starting at like 1am when I had insomnia, and finished at about 6am, then again the next day, which maybe explains why I didn't get the feels as much as other people said I would, and why I don't remember so much of it. I didn't find it as insipid and forgetful as it appears
I forget why I wrote all this out now. I'm pretty sure people aren't that interested

This thread actually makes me laugh a little, since almost everything needs to be spoiler boxes. Regardless...
Wheat fields. And music boxes. The other big one would be when Akira tells Hisao about the summons back to Scotland. All of those were brilliant. Everything else pales in comparison, at least for me. What does come close would be Hanako's good ending in the park as well as the point where she shows Hisao her scars ("This is me... all of me.")
The Hanako and Lilly paths stand out to me the most, since they were the first two I played... but the Misha route (if you could call it that) did take manage to feel like a knife to the heart, even when I was intentionally going for it. Oh, and this is a much more subtle one, but in the first Act, the point where you first meet Lilly and Concord plays for the first time - that gets a tear out of me every single goddamn playthrough.

One of my favorites was in Lilly's Arc. In the wheat fields "I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you!"

When Nurse pretended he was seducing you as Emi entered the room.

Too many "best moments" in this VN, so I'll do one for each character:
Emi: I need to use your window
Lilly: Confession scene
Hanako: Last scene on good ending.
Rin: Second porn scene. It was so full of D'aww that I forgot I was watching cripple porn.
Shizune: Grape scented cologne or any scene with Jigoro
Kenji: Manly picnic

Oh damn, the
grape-scented cologne bit is easily one of the funniest moments in the entire game, let alone in Shizune's route.

There are definitely some scenes that I enjoy watching multiple times in the Cinema, and mulling over. Rin's final scenes are fantastic, as are Lilly's and Hanako's.

Hanako's good ending The last scene of Hanako where she decides to kiss Hisao with full confidence without caring about the people around here. I felt so proud
Kenji's bad ending Most manliest bromantic picnic ever. Kenji is top bro tier
The epic confrontation between Lilly and Shizune with epic background and panty shot
Rin when she was leaning on Hisao's chest while crying
A certain part during Emi's route Lemon flavor
