| i dont find it offensive, i think its very fun, for people who are into that kind of stuff. its not really a big deal, as its just a game right? maybe its becuz im not disabled myself, but think it this way. They are making a gam featuring disabled people. Instead of thinking disabled people are easily offended, and they have no value to the society as nobody would wanna hear anything about them, making a game featuring disabled people as full of life characters means that they are not being biased, contempt, and despising the disabled people. I've been playing it since yesterday, and I love the haruhi suzumiya reference! haha. I don't recommend anyone finding this offensive, as its just another gameo ut there, and i doubt the makers had the intention of offending people with making this in the first place |

| It started off as a joke, and the name reflects that, but the final product is actually somewhat tasteful about it. You can skip the sex scenes entirely and the sex scenes don't contain the usual dongs and cum shots, much to my disappointment. Don't go in expecting fetish-y cripple sex. |
| I played the demo and I didn't think it was that tasteless. I'm kind of glad that it is finished. I might finish playing it now. |
| About damn time. What? Was it too hard to stray from the meek and useless archetype Japan? I'm Autistic Aspergers and I'm legally blind (aniridia, glaucoma) so a game about disabled people piques my interest. Though my pessimism tells me it'll just dissolve into "Oh I've got so much problems I need to sort out. Could you help me?" I can't say the media does the disabled any favor. Ranging from freudian excuses to psychopaths to people that are either useless or have given up on life. So, anyone care to tell me what's with the heroines and their names? |
| I think the average fucking mentally handicapped girls in those sort of games is far worse. |

| Well in a genre where pretty much every character is impossibly idealized or otherwise made solely to cater to the audience, I guess it's a fun twist to turn things around a bit. Still, seeing how all the girls are unmistakeably cute, I guess this too ends up catering in it's own way. |
| I've never played a VN in my life before but I've got to say if they're all like this one then they must be quite addicting. I got the download from the OP and I logged in some time today, I haven't hit any of the erotic parts but it seems like the issue of disabilities has been handled in a very tasteful manner. The personalities of some of the characters are probably the weirdest thing about any of them. Haha. notsureifsrs said: Lol I laughed pretty hard when I read this. Girl is pretty good with her toes though I'm sure... |
| Harems don't exist in America. If one guy is constantly surrounded by beautiful girls, then he's probably the gay friend. |
notsureifsrs said: Which is the most disappointing part. I played through all of Emi's route, and then after what happened with Emi I figured there's no way Rin isn't serving up a dish of the most obvious thing she can. What a let down. |
Zalis said: Was it too hard to stray from the meek and useless archetype Japan? The game wasn't made in Japan.I know that, I was referring to Japan because of their use of stereotypes. Nice try, though. |
| It's a well written VN actually. I've done Emi's route first yesterday. Took me roughly the same amount of time earlier to do Lilly's route. Right now I'm saving myself some time because I'm going with Hanako's route (and in Act 1 she shares the same "path" with Lilly except for the final choice). But actually, it seems the main character really has it the worst among the named characters. And I've already "pigeonholed" some VAs for the characters. lol Emiri Katou for Emi. Yui Horie for Lilly. Aya Hirano for Shizune (because it won't be the first time she "voiced" a character that have no spoken lines LOL). Eri Kitamura for Rin. Kana Hanazawa for Hanako (still unsure on this however). Tomoaki Maeno for Hisao. |
 |
| I don't get it, If Shizune and Lilly are first cousins and their Fathers are bothers, why do they have different last names? |
| It doesn't think, it doesn't feel, it doesn't laugh or cry..... All it does from dusk till dawn is make the soldiers die. |
| Completed emi 100 percent. I was honestly surprised how tasteful the game was. I felt they didn't make the game so focused on YO THIS BITCH GOTS NO LEGS HEUEHUEHEUHEUE and more on the actual personality of said character, and only used the disabilities as a story device if anything. The writing is done so well, the emotional attachment to the characters is wonderful and I am overall incredibly pleased with the presentation of the whole deal. |

medicalmidget said: I wouldn't go that far. For one thing it's free, thus not "on the market". It's quite good for a free VN, but a 5 year wait for this much material is...this is probably the most well-produced hentai game on the market. Oh god the writing... and Rin's story! *heart attack meme* I do agree that Rin's route is one of the better routes. |
medicalmidget said: Couldn't agree more. I don't care if this is defined as a hentai. Even if it is, this is probably the most well-produced hentai game on the market. Oh god the writing... and Rin's story! *heart attack meme* That's a big call, if you take into account that Air, Kanon, and Little Bustets! All have eroge versions. (Yes, I'm a Key fan, sue me.) |

fluttershy said: It's in the options menu, simply check the box that says "disable adult content".Wondering if I should get this. It's hard to find many bishoujo games without h-scenes... Just curious about how you skip the h-scenes is there an option to turn them off in the start page or something? Because I use a family computer so I gotta be cautious :/ As for the OP's question, I really don't find much of anything offensive anymore. Obviously somebody will find something to complain about but I doubt most of the anime community will have a problem with it. |
| It's not stellar but above average and the concept is original, and for people who think this is offensive, not really, I've played things far worse like Daughter Maker. |

Oh god the writing... and Rin's story! *heart attack meme* It's pretty average actually, it's actually quite cheap in the art department, the amount of unique sprites and unique scenes is very very low. and like 90% of the backgrounds are just real pictures with a crappy photo shop filter over them. Also the only really original thing about it is the concept, it's pretty standard fair how each girl's path plays out.There is no major twists or anything you can't see coming from a mile away. Unlike some thing like Yume Miri Kusuri where one minute I'm romancing a shy girl then all of a sudden I'm helping her choke out her bully until the bully shits her self. On top of that none of the disabilities of the girls ever really factor into their story, (except maybe Hanako but scars aren't a disability to begin with) there is nothing that needs be over coming or relationship building that happens as a cause of their disabilities. They just have them... The first thing about character writing is never give your characters anything that isn't essential to their Arc, and none of the girls disabilities are essential. The part of their life where they are learning to cope with their problems is already past by the events of the game so it's not important anymore. |

| At first I thought this was gonna be realllllllly f**ked up. But against my better judgement I tried it and it was actually pretty tastefully done. They did a pretty good job! |

Oh god the writing... and Rin's story! *heart attack meme* Most well produced... eh. Not sure about that. Little busters still holds that #1 spot for me, but it is definitely a very well made game and easily in my top 3. Emi's character is probably my favorite out of any eroge heroine I have seen though. |
| |
| Oh don't get me wrong, I really do love that game. Like i said, emi is #1. You should explore more VN's since you enjoyed katawa so much. Little busters would be my personal recommendation, and seeing as only the all ages version is currently fully translated I think it would be a good transition title. Granted my obvious bias :P What really makes me happy about this game is how many people its introducing to the VN world. A good visual novel is truly unlike anything else so it makes me pleased to know more people are opening up to the idea. |
| |
| Though I don't have much time for vns, I decided to give this a try. I remained dumbfounded of how good it actually turned out to be. It took half of my night already, even though it should've been dedicated to the project I must present Tuesday. Getting over the obvious procrastination, I really enjoyed it (even though I almost finished Lily's route only -> when I'll have more time, I'll try the other routes as well) |

Yeah, except Yume Miru Kusuri isn't free. Unless you know... and your point? I doubt anyone here would have bothered with KS if they had to pay for it. The main problem with KS was it felt Quality is places it didn't need to be and felt woefully cheap in places where it shouldn't be. Heck I would have gotten rid of those useless animations after act 1 if it meant I didn't have stare at a character in 1 of only 4 poses they had in 1 of 2 or maybe 3 outfits they wear for the millionth time. |

| Dled the game thinking that its a joke... turns out it was srs bsns D= Hanako <3 |
| Got Lilly's good ending. Damn, that was beautiful. Manly tears, man. ****ing manly tears. I don't even want to play the other routes now. I think I'm going to wait a week or two until I continue on. |
| "Oh, you want some too?" |

You're too focused on the demand side of things and ignored the supply side, or should I say, the producers. Here's a quick walkthrough LOL |
|
| Overall great game very enjoyable and characters stick to you throughout the character development and it kinda disappointing when it ends so soon but Hanako :3 But that loud bitch Misha should of had a route seriously...... |

Tomoaki Maeno for Hisao. If this is in any way an Eroge, none of the people you've mention have done anything +18. Unless they make an CS Version, aka All Age one. Then maybe. I highly doubt either of those 6 seiyuu's will do the sex scenes as they've yet to done it many many years in business. |
| played a few different routes so far it's enjoyable <3 lilly |
| Downlaoded the first game from Fakku. I have to say, it's surprisingly good. Though, Hisao does come off bit of a jerk to me. I was so busy Hnngh'ing over all the girls I ended with Emi's route. Going to get the rest once my bandwidth decreases. Definitely want to play more of it. Absolutely love Kenji, too. Funny as hell. |
| Well, I randomly picked this up to try it after reading about it in a few different places. At first, I didn't know what to think about it, as I thought its setting could easily come off as "tasteless", however, I gave it a try... Without going into it too deeply, I'm really enjoying the story and its "deeper" plot as well as all the characters. I would definitely recommend a play through if you are "interested" but have not yet decided yet if its worth it. I mean, the Feminist movement is something we should all fear and prepare for - we must spread this warning to the masses! (/tinfoil hat) |
Will you be able to do.... what must be done? |
| The game isn't good, but that's beside the point. I still think it's a prime example of how powerful/useful the 4chan community can be when they share the same goal. |
| -Fixing- |
| This game will probably appeal to most of the community who only play translated games. From that perspective, this game will probably seem pretty good. As a player of untranslated games I found this game average, though it did have its moments. |
I blog about eroge at: |
| I love this game. Yea. |
| Why no Misha route? There's not enough WAHAHAHA~! IMHO. Ow, damn. Never BAWWWed that much, when played other games... The last scene of Hanakos good ending... One of the cutest scenes EVER. And Rins T_T |
| katawa shoujo is a VN that changed my view... definitely a recommended for galge gamers oh! the OST... so EPIC. |
| For the people whose first and only VN is Katawa Shoujo, you should try some other ones as well. You may be surprised when you find that there are even better VNs out there. |
 |
| So far I've enjoyed Katawa Shoujo (already up to Act 3 on Emi's route) and it's funny because when my friend first told me a simple synopsis on the game, I was instantly on the negative. Really goes to show that people should never judge a book by its cover (or in this case, synopsis). |
     |
| Let's face it people Katawa Shoujo sucked |
