Katawa Shoujo

There's no Misha route either, right? Is there a Hicchan/Shicchan/Misha three-some option? 

[Mosesandstick]

[Rendakor]

That might be the goal of my next playthrough.

[Mosesandstick]

Don't forget to save.

[Rendakor]

Of course, since I figure that'll eventually lead to a Shizune bad end.

[rk47]

wow damn u guys are fast. 
i'm taking it slow since reading quickly didn't make me absorb much. (I hate reading, totally)
on lilly path, the hero seems to be an extremely emo douche so far.

[Mosesandstick]

To me it seems that in practically every path the protagonist has to have a crippling flaw to go along with his female counterpart.

[Rendakor]

I put it on auto mode, adjusted the text speed to something I was comfortable with, then sat back and watched it like an anime; I'm used to watching subs so I can read really fast and still take in the scenes. I only needed to use the keyboard to pause or make a decision.

Remember, the story would make one check this out, and maybe becuase of your radicalthon they may be trying other choices to test results.


I have been reading about this game in a bunch of places, and it seems like a very long (albeit sensitive to disabilities) dating sim, with possibly a couple of disabled hentai images nude as a reward. I did download it, but couldn't really spend time reading or invest in it, besides the story is funnier when reading rk47's version.

Also, if you compare the length to other works of its kind (Clannad, Fate/Stay Night, Ever17) it's a bit shorter.

Goddamn...and I thought I had too much time on my hands.

I also gave this a shot, tried for Rin and wound up with Emi. Surprisingly well-written (interior/exterior dialogue, not plot), and the "adult content" wound up being surprisingly irrelevant. They were successful with one goal, which was that the disability became just a sort of detail, not defining characteristic full stop. Maybe that varies with the path.

P.S. Emi = Aimee?

[rk47]

She's diabetes. Fuck's sake. Why make her so...so.....  Goddamn!

[taolurker]

I have been finding some truly hilarious fan art on the forums for this game. It's better IMO than the actual game...

[rk47]

good one = googled the thread. Holyfuck. Over 50 pages. 

[taolurker]

Not all of them were winners, but some of them made me laugh almost as much as your radicalthon.

Two more that caused spontaneous laughter (from me at least):

[Strazos]

Can a brother get a link?

Wa...

[rk47]

I like Hanako's secret collection in her room better.
Go look for it, I went through 50 pages yesterday. So can you!

[taolurker]

I also read the 22 pages of Horatio Caine one liners and the 13 pages of the Meme Generator thread, along with a bunch of other threads there.

I found a ton of things there that were funny:

[koro]

[Rendakor]

The Horatio Caine images show up in some weird scroll box for me, so I have to mousewheel down each one to see the second two panels. Is that normal or is my browser fucking something up?

[taolurker]

Those are ones that have been uploaded to the forum, and not an exterior image host.. They display that way and I too wondered about that looking for an option in the forum controls to change it, but no luck.

[Severian]

Nailed by the meme generator thread.







Edited: rationalization

[rk47]

been annoyed by this...frozen frogs on linked images. how do i actually get rid of this 2011 trend?
I cannot stand this shit nowadays. What's with the dickery. People are hosting images and the hosts are blocking it off to select ppl?

[taolurker]

It's from Imageshack US, and imageshack blocks according to certain locations. You might need to do some kind of proxy to be able to see them, because that's about the only way to actually see those... Unless someone rehosts them on another photo site.

Because it's that funny, and you've been sick, I'll take care of the last option for you this time.

Rehost of Severian's image:

....oh ok that got me at work. Gigglety.

[taolurker]

Haha even more LOLs from the KS forum.

There's a fan made flash game (still beta) with some LOL moments. Fun little game too.
Katawa Crash (download link from Mediafire)
Forum Thread

You launch Hisao using angle and power (click and hold.. click determines angle and power when you release). Object is to hit other KS characters for distance and height boosts, but to not hit Shizune or come to full stop.

My high score so far:

[rk47]

Hnnnnnnghhahahahahahhahahahha~!

[ezrast]

Ahaha. I'd forgotten about Nanaca Crash. This looks like it could be even better.

[taolurker]

Ahaha. I'd forgotten about Nanaca Crash. This looks like it could be even better.

I played Nanaca Crash, and this is indeed better.

There's lots of fun little achievements, and special characters, most of them with immense amounts of humor attached to them.

Some of the special characters/specials/achievements:

One of the forum posts had a high score of 1,132,609m...  

[Severian]

A critical decision point for the Hanako path.

[Azuredream]

They give you a Kenji sans glasses CG in Shizune's story.
