There used to be some people (or just one really obnoxious one) who kept whining about file formats all the time and complained every time a certain format was used, so eventually the admins were fed up with it.
@37207: Damn, didn't even notice that. Nice, subtly done.
So Hanako manages to make friends and starts coming out of her shell (assuming this takes place in the KS canon) but can't be with the guy she loves. Talk about bittersweet.
So when she finds out about Lilly and Hisao she jumps into the arms of the newspaper club lesbian sitting next to her. Too bad Misha sits further away, could have solved both thier problems that way. ;)
I generally consider myself emotionally dead, but this one just bothers me. Seeing that this is obviously Lilly's route and all that. Just gives me the sad.
I was reading all three of these in order. I got to this one, and as I scrolled down...
"Awwwwww... This is so touching! Wait. Doll from Hisao? This was Lily's route... No. No. No. Nonono. Nononononoono NONONONONONONONONOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
"Hmmmm. Ok Hanako I'm going to just go ahead and write you out valium prescription. You just start taking that when you need to, alright? You'll know what I mean."
@37207: But is it really Hanako did very well for herself with just Hisao and Lilly their for her.
Hisao is really after Lilly so he doesn't coddle her like in her route which leads to the series of events, but his friendship to her is still a very significant part of her recovery.
So i don't see the bitterness at all. Makes me like Lilly even more. Get to "fix" two of the girls in one route!
NOoooooooooooooooooooooooo
someone has to change that to a chess board.
Different from many beliefs, I guess that Hanako falls in love with Hisao in both her and Lilly`s route. But she can`t do anything because she is too timid to confess, and before appear any chance Hisao is already with Lilly. Aaaand Hanako thinks that she wouldn`t have a chance, because Lilly is popular, very ladylike, beautyful, without to mention she is rich.
Even in her own route, Hanako didn`t thought she had a chance too.
@37269: The sad version very clearly came first. There is no reason why Lilly's gift would be the only one portrayed when the emotionally important one is Hisao's gift.
@37272: I can attest to this, considering the fact that I made the shoop.
Which is now uploaded on TheHondaBull's deviantart, with my permission (which he didn't really need in the first place).
Hop to it, KSdevs.
@37269: The artist did not make the chess and blonde version. An Anon with photoshop did.
@37319: She's holding the doll in the ingame CG regardless of which path you're on, so I don't think that's a strong argument.
The sad version was first, though.
This is genuinely difficult to read. I just did the Lilly route, but Hanako is my favourite and I always kind of suspected this might have been something they could play on during Lilly's route, thankfully they didn't. But it could easily be going on.
Though as said, in Lilly's route she ends up becoming quite strong and I'm certain she will have a happy life after this.
Either way, I feel bad enough now to have to replay the Hanako route tomorrow now.
That's the only thing I kept thinking of on Lilly's neutral ending
Hanako and Hisao hooking up after Hanako finds Hisao locked in his room visible crying and bottles of whiskey all over the room, Hanako "comforts" him and a relationship is born
