This is a nice thread. So new, wow.

>And if you are in this general you cannot be one even partially.
That's true. I was sloppily using normalfag, intending to limit it to the range of what's seen on 4channel, and it wasn't a reasonable use of the term. I accept full responsibility for my careless speech.
Why is Lilly destroying that phonebooth?

hello it's me again, I was destroyed yesterday after a whole week, so I couldn't reply, but now it's the time

>>493279316
>I haven't had a conversation this decent and engaging and delightful in.. years.
I don't know if we can call this convo an engaging and delightful, but yeah, I also feel that I poured some thoughts and emotions after a long time in this thread, it's nice to feel understood.

>>493296761
>don't tell me you got over that easily yourself.
well, I wouldn't say I got over that easily, for like two, maybe three weeks I was in this strong emotional state towards Lilly, I felt happiness, attachment, I felt warmth in my heart, I was imaginating wonderful things I would do with her, I kind of felt sad, depressed and jealous about the realism of a relationship like this, because of her Mary-Sue nature. I made some posts about her on 4channel to share similiar feelings with other anons just like you are doing in /ksg/, but didn't want to spoil myself KS story in some of those threads, so I decided to stop posting Lilly until I finish the whole game, and later lost that bond and came back to living everyday life.
>why not get her in touch with her now?
well, it's been a long time since this, idk if she would feel the same emotions as me, also I moved on to something different, so fuck that.
>quite the exquisite tastes in women
haha, I don't think I'm the connoisseur or some shit like that, but I think that every man would at some point want to be with Lilly (because of aforementioned Mary-Sue allegations)

>>493298969

Anyone here who only found the VN through Steam?

>>493494201
No idea, maybe she lost it and is taking it out on whatever is emitting a clearly recognisable noise, as that allows her to detect its position with precision

>I accept full responsibility for my careless speech.
You know what, maybe 'twas I who was wrong.
For all I know, some among us may exhibit a certain degree of normalfaggotry, just not me myself.

I'd say the likelihood of finding such individuals is however greater in KataShou communities located outside 4chan.
[The source for this claim is my ass.]

>>493493287
Yes
>>
cont.

>>493301159
>YES! YES! YES! YES! HOME RUN! CORRECTAMUNDO YOU ARE RIGHT.
so I finally got you, well I think everyone that played Lilly's route got this feeling that she is so perfect but she isn't real, and they are sad about it, but what can we do about it anon? Mourn over her in eternity or maybe try to find a woman like her one day?

Also anon, have you played other katawas routes? Because it's visible that you fixate on Lilly, but you SHOULD try playing the other routes, maybe they won't be exactly the same as her, but that's even better, you'll get to experience new story and maybe you will even reflect on something new. I don't know how tough you are emotionally, but since your pouring tears over Lilly since monday, I suggest to watch your guard, cause shit will leave you with strong emotions, maybe even stronger than Lilly's story, but you gotta play those routes man, I also couldn't bring myself to play this game anymore after completing her route, but it was a good choice, I dealt with my emotions regarding her route and enjoyed other stories, maybe that will cure your crippling emotional addiction to her, give it a shot and tell us your experience later.

anon we know that her route is special and beautiful, but you have to acknowlegde that her route isn't the perfect and she isn't the perfect human being and also has flaws. I strongly advise you to check out other katawas, understand their stories and create your own opinion on them, cause defending your waifu to death isn't really the solution here.
I have to agree with some anons, because they give fair points:
>>493368105
>>493367151
>>493371304
even tough she' perfect, she has been hiding the skeleton in the closet, wasn't that honest with Hisao about her coming to Scotland (but game scolds you after not being honest to her??), maybe that was what Suriko eventually planned to do, to make a contrast between her composed personality and her real intentions? The story has some holes and could be written better, given the fact that it was created by first timers, but it is a good story nonetheless.

also anon is this your youtube channel? (https://www.youtube.com/@volatilechemicals-wo2yh), I saw it under weee livestream, at first I thought that MAYBE you were trolling, just a little bit, but now I realize you are fucking serious about this (or you keep going like this for a week, mad respect if so)

If you want to read some thread regarding Lilly, here's mine (https://warosu.org/jp/thread/46106004), originally posted on /jp/, valentine's day with Lilly.

>>493419271
>SONG THAT YOU WOULD SAY IS PERFECT TO LISTEN TO WHEN THINKING ABOUT LILLY
on Valentine's I was listening to her theme that is so calming and beautiful, but except that I was listening to this also: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2dosVRzLSM)

Oh yeah i got, its an interesting fusion. Speaking of Femji, and thats a question for everyone.

Thoughts on Katawa Shonen? Everything is reversed, you play as Iwanako and its boys that are disabled. Do you imagine that all plot could work exactly the same with this reversal, would you play this version and most importantly, would the H-scenes be the same or play out differently?

>>493504341
Hell yeah dude!

>>493502962
>I was listening to her theme that is so calming and beautiful
Yeah, I forgot how nice it was. It has this whimsical feeling to it. Like the score for a Wes Anderson movie about love. It kind of makes my stomach hurt and my eyes feel sort of puffy now.

I feel like shit.
>>
>>493502962
>maybe that was what Suriko eventually planned to do, to make a contrast between her composed personality and her real intentions?

I hope Suriko doesn't pull a J.K. Rowling and claim that was in fact the intended meaning, given that the writing itself in no way hints at it. Even I didn't realise it until a veteran in the community made me notice the hole.

By the way, I am >>493368105 and >>493367151 but NOT >>493371304 , as quite clearly shown by the different writing style.
You should pay attention to that and not simply assume that two posters are the same person just because they are expressing similar (clearly not identical) opinions (in this case, being somewhat critical of the idea that Lilly's path is a 10/10 writing-wise).

I don't have a Youtube channel, but for all I know, >>493371304 may have one.

And just so it's clear, I played this game for the first time in 2013, so of course I had all the time to evaluate the story properly, compared e.g. to newcomers who are still high on their first after-play feelings.

I recommend this. While I am not romantically attracted to Rin, her route definitely moved me, possibly because it reminded me of my frustrated desires to be unique and play by my own rules in life.

I'd gladly be friends with all the Katawas other than my romantic option, and I'd also want them to be friends with each other.
A shame that we don't see much interaction between them, aside from the pairings (Emi-Rin, Lilly-Hanako, Shizune-Misha).

It would be nothing short of precious to read a long canon conversation between Hanako and Rin

Shizune would definitely be an action girl outside a school setting, her confrontational attitude transpires quite clearly from scenes such as >>493507971 and pic related.

She doesn't appear to be into sports, but her father could probably teach her kendo and karate in six months and turn her into a Ciel-like character

thanks for indulging in my blabbering. however, see, I've already accounted for that possibility in the following post (if it's not too much bother obviously) >>493375817

I feel like you could absolutely just do the exact same game with the genders flipped and it would work fine, but it might be more interesting to rework some or all of the characters to fit with dude expectations. I could see Emi, Lilly and Hanako diverge quite interestingly on that basis.
(Rin would be exactly the same except instead of an underfed art hoe we'd have an underfed art twink. This is because Rin is perfect)

I dont know Emi's details but a track ace dude is pretty easy to do so i dont think it would require much tweaking, same with Lilly by being the classy pretty boy that all the girls are fawning over for. Hanako would probably receive some changes, maybe get a touch of edginess since its a dude we're talking about, maybe talks even less or says a few bad words (?) I also think the order in which each other would show their scars would be flipped too. Meaning that Manako would show his scars first and then later Iwanako would show hers and then prompt the sex scene, would make more sense in that setting.

>Rin would be exactly the same
Pretty much yeah, her story could be applied to a male with no issue.

I feel like Lilly's tendency to mother people she cares for is a lot rarer in dude, which does not mean it can't stay but it should probably be remarked on.
As a consequence I feel like porting Hanako and Lilly's relationship straight from female to male might seem a bit strange, but maybe it's fine.
The idea is fun at least. Plenty of interesting space to explore with genderswap design (see picrel for a pretty cool take). Maybe I should pick up a pen myself and give it a go.

guys I wonder... how would KS be perceived from a perspective of a girl? I suppose there are no girls (no, you're not a woman if you identify with one while also having male skeleton structure) in this thread because of obvious reasons, but what do you think experience like that would look like? Given the fact that KS as a whole is directed at lonely virgin males, and that demographic is the most common.
Do you think the girl playing this would obsess of any character? (if she's lesbian then probably yes) Maybe the girl would just recognize one character type/personality of one katawa and identify herself with that character?
Or maybe she would be more concerned about Hisao and his disability than focusing on other girls? Except Katawas, maybe Kenji? Devs really could have made a dedicated non-heteronormative route with him and Hisao that female fans could play.

>finding the KataShou backgrounds was probably the most emotionally intense moment.
it's unfortunate that in this day and age, there's no medium to actually let someone else sense exactly what you're feeling so no one would have to resort to elaborate explanations and guesses and instead I would just get the same sensation in my heart and in my chest and the dizziness of mind that you probably felt then. honestly what you're telling me is extremely tender and im sort of.. just glad, actually glad you lucked out in experiencing that. what you did is praiseworthy and im thankful to you for posting those beautiful pics cuz.. what else is there to do? we -- meaning all of us in this general -- are indefinitely stuck with a static piece of media that's never going to have its characters come to life and comfort us. katawa shoujo is concluded and all we're left with is either prying answers out of the devs or creating our own content related to the game and making up new stories or making artwork. so you carrying out such a noble deed and reaching those exact locations with a framed picture of the best girl nonetheless is another way for us to somehow feel closer to the game -- to feel like we can still experience something new and hope that lilly will come to life one day and talk to us and offer us tranquility and answers to all our questions. for that I am grateful to you. if I had a hat, I'd take it off =^-^=
and since we're on fourchan and not on some sort of social media, this general really is the only way for you and me and everyone else here to ever stay in touch. as much as I hate losing people and knowing that one day this connection may suddenly end, I'm still forced to endure the vacillation. basted with forlorn hope, I wilt at the baleful prospect of losing the opportunity to savour our confabulation that all of us share here regularly. may God show us mercy, as I am unaware of what's presaged

I know one(1) cis woman who tried it and beyond the difficulty of engaging with work from a widely ridiculed genre (esp. hailing from fourchin) the one route she played, Emi's, she thought was pretty nice.
She was very amused by Hisao's over the top reaction to the school and the students' disabilities and pleasantly surprised by the character writing. Didn't particularly care to try other routes though. Presumably just didn't resonate that hard with her.

>Her route made me feel like shit, pardon my French. I did not experience the feeling of catharsis and awakening that several people appear to describe
PRECISELY! THANK YOU! a remugient torrent of applause is what I can respond to you with because there is undoubtedly nothing cathartic about her route's good ending, let alone the neutral one.
>the main feeling is the heartbreaking awareness of being in love with someone who simply does not exist.
oh God, yes! it's like you've been led on for sport for dozens of hours on end, and now that you're so comfortable and accustomed to your romantic bliss with lilly that it's practically your whole existence, suddenly it all evaporates in a second and you're left agonizing on your own. of course that causes you immense stress, of course it rips your hearts to pieces, what the frick would anyone expect from such a turn of events other than absolute torment? fate's cudgel is potching at us in a manner most ominous. seated at the apse, lilly manifests diachronically. I have been aching sleeplessly for a week, doting over her, tending to her altar. misery is what engulfs you, I and every other pitiable soul wailing on these grounds.
>Yes, there are some Lilly-like girls in the world
but unfortunately we're all human beings and even if life turns out gracious enough to endow you with such a blissful boon, it's never enough. there will be days when you mistreat her, other days she'll act up and taint that diaphanous veil of perfection. life will inevitably prove to us all time and time again that its circumstances act cruelly and leave little room for your dreams to transpire. I don't know what the solution to all of this is honestly; my hope is that we could collectively arrive at a conclusion that would succour all of us in our attempt to harness the turmoil and predicament emerging from our love for the katawas ;_; just know that I'll hang around for a long-long time in this general and I vow to stay by everyone

>As a consequence I feel like porting Hanako and Lilly's relationship straight from female to male might seem a bit strange
I see your point, it has to be a very brotherhood-centric relationship to work a similar way. Maybe have Manako be Manlly's step-brother (?)

>>493525762
With a bit of research you gonna find out that there's a decent amount of female KS fans, even during its hay-day. As for, if KS could affect them the same way it does to guys, i honestly cannot tell. Women think, act and work rather differently than men, especially when it comes to affection.

I guess KS is also designed mostly for the male reader so its harder for a female reader to invest emotionally to the girls. Its less of a KS "issue" and more of a who was this VN made for kind of thing. Regardless there's still girls who are into KS and its characters but are they in the same emotional level? i cant say for sure unless we could tell people's genders in here.

>Almost 12 years later the scar is still there, and it's probably never going anyway.
incredible.. this is just outright inconceivable, yet I can confidently say I know what you're going through. will anything ever help? is there anything at all I can tell you that would make you feel better? probably not. unless you'd want me to recite some of the quotes from the hit flick Silent Night, Deadly Night 2. that's why all I'm left with is telling you how accurately and identically I can feel what you feel. actually I'm sorry I didn't mean to underestimate your feelings because unlike you I haven't been in this state for twelve years, so maybe I have no right to tell you I know where you're coming from. it's such a short line -- you revealing the scar is there after twelve years -- yet it's extremely powerful and profound and puts me on the verge of crying. who's going to take responsibility for the magnitude at which the game shook you up? who will heal your wounds caused by pure love for lilly – an angel that's quite frankly never going to become real, but will endlessly torture you with her motherly tenderness, sympathy and affection? it's not fair! it's not fair it's not supposed to be like this! there has to be a way to release all this pent up decay and entropy and find an outlet for the pain. since when is it okay for a good, and I cannot overemphasize this, a quote-unquote GOOD ending of a character's route to torture you this horribly? what can you do? what will you do? I mean, what even is there to do? will the devs emerge and guide you to the piece of mind you deserve? distracting yourself with other things just so you stop thinking about lilly isn't an option because it doesn't solve the problem it only sweeps it under the rug. but it's no solution! I dunno what to do I don't know how to handle katashou dude

Yes, lol

>I wonder how much insight you can offer all of us on this heroic odyssey
I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.

Jokes aside, it all comes down to whether you are open to the idea of spending your life loving a 2D character (more specifically, your personal interpretation of it) or whether you are looking for a woman who can remind you of her, of course with a heavy load of "if's" and "but's".

This is a very existential topic and it's best to tread carefully and painstakingly separate fact from opinion, so that nobody may misunderstand what you claim or call you unreasonable (or something worse than that).

>and chances are that this general and a handful of people you tell about that will end up being the only ones that know
I hate Reddit and other social networks, and my Twitter account is just for following Jap artists, so yeah, 4chan is one of the few places where I would share such photos.
Occasionally I have showed the altars I post on /a/ to online friends of mine, but it never strikes me as that good of an idea. I don't think you're supposed to be open about your romantic fantasies, otherwise it may easily look like you're seeking external validation to compensate for a lack of internal convinction.

Heh. Did they swap bodies? Would be nice to see what Hanako has turned into as well

>>493525762
This is an entry-level VN, so the occasional outsider can very much be expected to try it out.
I know for instance a number of early millennials and gen X people who have played it (I would assume everyone in this general is either late millennial or zoomer).

Hypothetical female players may be captivated by the cosy atmosphere, the beautiful soundtrack and the essential idea that true love exists, but I wouldn't expect them to develop an attachment comparable to what Lonely Virgin Malesâ„¢ would exhibit, that's for certain

>there is undoubtedly nothing cathartic about her route's good ending, let alone the neutral one.
Maybe it's subjective. This game motivates some and depresses others. Sometimes it motivates you by depressing you first.

It's just that my inner emotional landscape is one dark toxic sludge, so even if this game did its best to stir it up and apply a good dose of disinfectant, it was simply not enough on its own. I'm speaking only for myself here

>it's like you've been led on for sport for dozens of hours on end, and now that you're so comfortable and accustomed to your romantic bliss with lilly that it's practically your whole existence, suddenly it all evaporates in a second and you're left agonizing on your own.
Definitely.
It's a bit like getting drunk or doing drugs, especially on your own (the same way people play this VN normally): temporary high followed by a bitter, rough comedown. At least getting high with friends can be a way to bond, but doing stuff on your own is bound to feel lonely, eventually if not immediately.
And yet in loneliness there's also emotional freedom: the freedom to suffer is also the freedom to interact with your negative feelings on your own terms.

>fate's cudgel is potching at us in a manner most ominous
> misery is what engulfs you, I and every other pitiable soul wailing on these grounds.
So it seems, indeed.

>but unfortunately we're all human beings and even if life turns out gracious enough to endow you with such a blissful boon, it's never enough
I don't know. I think "enough" can exist once you learn to be grateful for what you have. But that doesn't mean you should fool yourself into thinking you already have everything you need and must not dare dream to have more.
I define "greed" as demanding something you don't need, rather than just asking for more.

It is certainly true that you cannot have a perfect relationship in a blatantly imperfect world, because sooner or later the toxicity will seep from outside the walls into your love nest, for certain.

>life will inevitably prove to us all time and time again that its circumstances act cruelly and leave little room for your dreams to transpire
I'd say that is very much possible, unfortunately.

>>493530338
>will anything ever help? is there anything at all I can tell you that would make you feel better?

Honestly, I dunno.
It's hard to even tell what you want when nobody can just sit down and explain to you what is achievable (even just in the long run and with lots of effort) and what is but a pipe dream.
They say positive thinking can move mountains, but I don't know how much of that is but a pious lie meant to uplift your morale in the short-term.

>actually I'm sorry I didn't mean to underestimate your feelings
I did not get such an impression, do not worry

>who's going to take responsibility for the magnitude at which the game shook you up?
Possibly myself? My emotions are my own, at the end of the day, I'm supposed to cultivate them with great care. Like a farmer who is not responsible for a flood, but is still expected to contain the damage to the crops as best as they can, if you know what I mean

She's one hell of a wing woman, regardless of what you did she still goes out of her way to help you with the other girls, she did kind of do a shitty thing but it's clear that's not who she is, she just made a decision on a broken heart. I'd date her if i was a girl.

You're certainly making an excellent point here. I wouldn't say "valid", I'm going for the rank above that.

My exact thoughts

>distracting yourself with other things just so you stop thinking about lilly isn't an option because it doesn't solve the problem it only sweeps it under the rug.

True to some degree, but it's also true that nobody should just spend their entire life by focusing on the hole in their heart, you can acknowledge it while also paying attention to other things that deserve your attention. This somehow keeps you functional and level-headed and supposedly prevents your life to end as soon as Young Werther's.

>I dunno what to do I don't know how to handle katashou
I remember back when I was in school and my philosophy professor once lauded a specific film director (don't remember the name) by summarising his films as "Either you don't get them at all, or they will tear your heart out".
A few years later, I finally found an example of the sort of feelings they referred to.

I wonder how many people played it on day one or so, claimed to love it, and then just moved on until the next big thing showed up? To some extent, I envy them, but I am also proud of my emotional pain in a way. Pride is not always a bad thing, and pain teaches you things, even about yourself (you may know less about yourself than you would readily assume)

I agree, Misha is Hisao's most important companion in the game from the perspective of helping him out romantically/emotionally.

>>
>>493545503
No, I don't think there is nothing wrong with her consumption of alcoholic drinks, it's quite normal for 18-year-olds to indulge in that sense, and as long as it is done both socially and in a controlled environment there's hardly an issue.

The problem, as already mentioned, is that she starts dating you, the MC, only after realising that her parents want to summon her to Scotland, supposedly for a long time. Aside from the fact that it makes no sense for her to quit school 8 months before graduation, it shows that she must have seen her relationship with Hisao as nothing but a test run for whatever would have come later in life.
It also doesn't help that she's leaving Hanako behind as well, you know perfectly how much of an issue it is for her to say goodbye to Hanako (as opposed to merely allowing her to make friends with girls other than Lilly).

I do not claim to know what went through Suriko's head, whether this was completely unintentional, completely intentional or something in-between, I just think that having her act in this way only makes if she's later on confronted about it, especially since the whole point of her story is "You need to tell the truth to people you care about. Do not lie, not even by omission".

>Would Manako’s story still end in rape?
>If so, who is the one doing the raping?
Good question, I would imagine it as Manako being over-eager and goofy, and the female MC getting groped by him without a proper build-up to that moment.
She would then start feeling wary around him, suspecting that he may engage in new forms of ungentlemanly behaviour if she lets him too close.

Because ultimately, if the MC is female, the story could be constructed as being more about whether to let someone who may or may not be trustworthy get closer to you, as opposed to you discovering a way to get closer to someone you find attractive.

Just my 2 cents

Her parents have loadsamoney. I'm sure she can transfer into a private school or get a tutor for the last few months to get a Scottish degree.

Or even just fund her independent living, potentially out of guilt for how they treated her earlier.

She doesn't submit to the most qualified authority in the game, M'lady Shizune

>>493573802
shizune sucks and blows I hate people that constantly impose their opinions on others and force others to do something they don't want to

Credit where it's due, I remember checking this general 2 years ago and it seems to have considerably improved since then.
Before it was mostly ultra-bored people discussing making all sorts of sex jokes about the Katawas, now I'm finally seeing once more heartfelt discussion of people's own feelings as they play the game, as well as in-depth analysis of the writing and sharing cute and wholesome art.

Who says good things only grow worse as time goes by?

It's only like this now because a bunch of people just played it for the first time. Unless something causes a spike in the future, the situation is as per: >>493575306

>>493575026
Probably because of the steam release. It will go back to normal soon enough.

>because of the steam release
nah id known about it for years and discovered the steam release took place only two weeks before I played it after u completed it, but a single look at its contents made me realize how much I would suffer if I touched it (see thre three hundred posts during the past week) so I just had to avoid it sorey..... *stumbles down the stairs mister lahey style*

How does your Katawa react when you tell her you want to try cumming on her face like a porno?

She'd be up for it

>>493565585
Why are you so afraid of people who understand her better than you?
>>
>>493582984
All of them would probably be up for trying it at least once. Hanako is hard to be certain about, since her sexuality is less explored than the other katawas.

Normally i wouldnt respond because that will only make things worse but i feel like i need to adress this in a civil manner so, im just gonna say this once, leave it at that and hopefully i wont feed the trolls too hard.

The rape argument exists since the game's release and 90% of the time its brought into attention to shitpost. This theory has been debunked by multiple sources many times and if you think the devs are trying to save face, then look no further than the scene itself which describes consent from both sides.

What bothers me is not so much that randos online think its a rape scene, but rather that they jump at the chance to do so every time the scene or anything related to it is brought up, ruining discussion. I dont see this adamant reaction when people bring up other parts of the VN that have a similar "controversial" reputation. Now you probably thinking that waifufaggotry is making me biased but i disagree because i'd be as equally as tired of something similar for any other girl. I do feel for Shizune bros who get all the flak for the quality of her route and while it might be universally agreed upon that her route has flaws, i dont make it my goal to point it out every time i see an anon fawn over a part of Shizune's route.

>If its people shitposting then why this wall of text nerd?
Because i did the mistake of giving in and replying to said post today and just as i predicted, it lowered the quality of the thread, so im hoping this post clears things up and makes people see things from my point of view and hopefully the next time i geek over my Katawa i dont inevitably get "but it was subverted into rape!!!!" and drive discussion into the wrong direction.

Good choice, I read his autistic wall of slop and all he did was put his hands over his ears and shout "NUH UH NUH UH DEBUNKED DEBUNKED" so it was a waste of time. I guess /ksg/ was right in saying he should kill himself.

and now you see why you should have ignored the dev cocksucker. give him one chance to talk about his supposed-favorite and all he does is pretend the destruction of hanako's route isn't controversial. all he does is worship authority

>A burnt out child prodigy of a well known artist, July has decided that you are her rival.
I've never tried yuri before but since it was an artsy chick, I decided to attempt playing as Rin.
It's hard to be Rin, I don't even like Pepsi.
