So this was a big deal for 4chan to me and some others at least and I've never seen a thread on /r9k/ about it.
Since /r9k/ added the 1 this board is so much more /feels/ than anything.
And this game gave me some feels goddammit, since its release years ago it still holds up today.
And from a waifu thread I realized I wanted to give it another go.
So for any robots unfamiliar here is the download:

So post your memories of it, whether you thought it was shit or not.
Post feels for starting it for the first time, or however many times you've gone through it.
Really, post whatever KS feels here please, love hate or barely know of it. Very comfy and emotional RPG imo.
My first path ended up being Rin.
She really annoyed me at first, being so distant. But when I just wanted to get closer she just pushed me away.

You're doing God's work, anon. KS needs to be more popular.
>Katawa dick flashbacks
Well-constructed game, don't get me wrong, but at the end of the day disabilities fundamentally disgust me so I didn't enjoy it that much.
I played it soon as it dropped. I remember waiting with /a/ four years ago. I got the good end on Hinako route, then never touched it again.
>tfw I kind of dropped weebshit as a whole and haven't been an /a/ or /jp/ regular for a couple of years now
Thanks for reminding me, OP.
Sex scenes were disappointing.
God Emi's route first time which was enjoyable.
Hanako's the second time round which felt like it ended just as things were gonna get good, only one sex scene and you don't get to spend time with her not being a nervous wreck around you.
I just remembered I still have my KS image folder, full of Emi pictures.
Emi a best. People with other opinions areokay.
They resonate with you because you recognize your flaws and needs and desires and triumphs and victories, and those of the loved ones you know and care about. You want to make them happy, because you want them to be happy, because you know them and are them, and in some way you believe everyone you love deserves to be happy.
You are not alone, and you are not strange. You are you, and everyone has damage. Be the better person.

Did you at least enjoy it? I thought it was well-written.
Got bad end on Rin first time, then went for the good one. I left pretty satisfied for a few years after that
>>25952182
Emi's route was my second, it was sooo much more playful than Rin's but I still love hers more.
>that moment when you visit Emi's house and she tells you to gtfo though
>>25951657
I got Lily good route first, then cried.
Then played again and got Hanakos good end, it was like," that ended abruptly."
Emi good route followed don't remember much but the she's a butt freak and her trama/resolution.
I played it when it dropped and was one of the first Lilyfags, then you know the rest of the story.

I know that feel. The game got me to relate to their characters on a personal level though, that made me look past their deformities.
Would've been a whole different game for me if their faces were deformed. Hanako covered hers with her hair but she was still the least attractive to me in every way.

!!CAUTION!! UNPOPULAR OPINION BELOW!!!
>tfw shizune was my first
>tfw she's been my favorite ever since
I recognize my bias and I don't even care
KS is normalfag tier VN. Fuck off
>>25952182
Emi is undeniable best girl
>>25952605
Ain't nothing wrong with liking Shizune
>>25952737
What's a "good" VN then? KS is perfectly fine, if a bit entry level.
>>25952737
>normalfag tier
>but produced by 4channers under the Four Leaf Studios
what
>>25952605
I recognize my bias toward Rin, they're both distant assholes.
Shizune's arc is my second favorite so far but only for her family and Misha, wished there would've been more Shizune in it
Shizune is almost best girl but her route is hot garbage and was a slog to get through.
Emi by default.
>I just want you to be happy, you know?
I get the feeling that came out wrong because Emi fixes me with an icy stare.
>So you want to fix me, Hisao?
She's definitely getting angry now.
>Wanna swoop in your white charger and save the day?
>Stop the nightmares, the phantom limb pains? Restore what's lost?
Her voice catches in her throat, and the tears start to flow.
>Well, you can't. Nobody can. No body will.
OH EMI ;_;
> tfw misha
I love her and I don't want to hurt her.
I wish i could just make her happy and not have to do the shitty stuff i have to do to her.
She reminds me of my oneitis too much
I want to love misha
>2012, had a need for bacon
>Went in for Hanako's bacon bits
>Got Emi's Lemon Chicken Legs instead
>Disappointed at first, but thought to run with it
>No regrets
It might be mediocre, but KS has my respect.
