I actually have a feeling of déjà vu about that story concept... Not sure where I read about it before...
And the picture itself is beautiful. Kudos to Mike!
I remember somebody wrote a story where Hisao woke out of his coma and discovered that each of the girls he had been dreaming about were in reality all just Iwanako. In that version of the story she had a multiple personality disorder.
I remember that story, but it's not what I was thinking about. It might be that Fink told me about it himself at one point or another...

Monks are masters of unarmed combat
Suriko what are you doing

You could even have switched to black belt if you're that concerned about the fact that monks use claws early game. I mean you already have Emi not being a tier-one class Whoops thought Rin was a thief and forgot that it wasn't a tier-one

Aura wrote:The request from Fink of the German translation team for the second present was exceptionally long and detailed. In fact it has more words than all the other requests of two previous Secret Santas put together had, so I'll quote it in full here for the curious.
In the vein of VN layman psychology, I always liked the theory that Hisao's in a coma after all, and his Yamaku adventures might represent a cathartic process for him to find his way back into consciousness and life - kind of like in The Odyssey, a Canadian kid's TV series that I used to watch when I was a kid; I guess it sorta introduced me to metanarratives at an early stage, too.

Anyway, if I ever had to write a piece of fanfiction for KS, it would be a frame narrative, depicting how Hisao is comatose after all and - contrary to what he notes in the intro chapter - Iwanako did not stop visiting him, but instead continued to visit him and talk to him. He unconsciously constructs the five/six KS girls from what she tells about herself, and gets cues for the narrative arcs/paths from her stories from school and home.

Since I'll never write this story, I'd like to request an artistic rendition of it. I could see an image of an pale, slightly emaciated and maybe not even recognizable Hisao in bed (frail body outlined against the bedsheets) with Iwanako sitting next to him, looking out of the window. Bonus points for giving her a complicated/interesting expression (gloomy and serene?), interesting shading/lighting (no lights on, stars outside?) and maybe a fragment of her narration, something that dimly reminds one of KS without being a direct quote.
I must say this little piece of art is very good. It depicts a whole history and it's somewhat moving, for the ones that have experienced the game. The concept is good and Iwanako's face is a plus :D

Waiting for more! Going back to translating hard! :P

Good to know I'm not the only one who thought of that. ^_^ Now that would have been a mind job.

Also: long-time fan of FF games, love the Katawa Fantasy III pic.

C'mon, this sounds fun. Why can't it be fun?

I kind of want to see what Crud draws.

I picture the devs as a hive mind collective. Aura is always in the back with a dark rain cloud perpetually overhead. And crud is the Swedish Chef from the Muppets. I'm not sure why. :lol:

Loving the pictures, guys. :mrgreen:

Why Crud didn't do the art for any routes I don't understand.

He would have been perfect for some extra bonus content.

You know, like maybe a hidden Jigoro route or something.
