Hello KS Gaf!.


I been reading this thread for a while and would just like to jump in and say hello, Been in love with this game for a couple years now.

Just came in to bump the thread

 

[Typographenia]

You can't just pop in like that and not say something about who your favorite path was!


I mean, welcome Meaty! : )

 

[Meaty]

Emi! Shes not the best written path, but it reached me emotionally in a way the others paths couldnt. Real life experiences and all that. I cried like a damn baby.

 

[Jintor]

emi da best

rin also da best

...lilly also da best

goddamnit ks why u so gud

 

[upandaway]

There's only like 1 character who isn't the best

 

[Menome]

There's only like 1 character who isn't the best

If you say Shizune, I may have to get very cross with you.

 

[spyhunterzero]

It's true though. She got the short end of the stick bad.

 

[Menome]

It's true though. She got the short end of the stick bad.

Nope. Won't hear of it. As much as the other routes were also great in their own right, Shizune's is the one that personally affected me the most thanks to my personal connection to the problems she faced. I don't see it as somehow any worse than the other stories.

 

[FelixOrion]

Best route is Kenji and y'all know it.

Couple of updates, KS-GAF:

First, a small patch update (1.3.1) and the SADDEST NEWS EVER

Katawa Shoujo 1.3.1 is released! It contains several script fixes for the Japanese localization.

Download the release from our website or directly from these links:



This is in all likelihood the final release of Katawa Shoujo ever.

This release also marks the end of official support for KS. From now on we won't guarantee technical or emotional support for Katawa Shoujo-related issues. Regardless, you can still contact 4LS at our email, social media, forums or IRC for any reason, as before.

In the absence of official support for translation projects, we've made an instruction set to facilitate releasing independent translations. 4LS won't guarantee to provide any kind of support to any translation project from this point forwards, but we wish any prospective or ongoing translation project the best of luck. See here for the instructions and the translation license.

Thanks to everyone who made all of this possible.

And in the other bit of news: Katawa Shoujo at Comiket 88

The Katawa Shoujo Japanese translation team's glorious return to Comiket is happening this August. We will attend Comiket 88 at Tokyo Big Sight on Sunday, August 16th. Our table number is east hall 2, space T-30a.

Katawa Shoujo Japanese hardcopies will be available. Hope to see you there!

 

[spyhunterzero]

[NeOak]

I want a hard copy. I have the artbook from the Kickstarter and the pins too... somewhere ._.

 

[spyhunterzero]

Got the artbook but not the buttons. Kinda wanted the buttons though too

 

[Jintor]

Man that brings back memories. I wanted something like this that played like UMvC3. I could just see all the moves, animations, and voices going on in a match.

 

[Nocturnowl]

For limb (or lack of) related reasons Emi and Rin seem like they could be more fun.

 

[Moonlight]

Would be hype as fuck for Misha. Drill hair supers and WAHAHAHA soundwave DPs.

I wonder if I became a better artist in the last 3 years? I definitely didn't really bother doing any real animation, so... oh well

Need me some kenji

 

[Jintor]

[Jintor]

Seriously, legs are hard. It took like an extra hour to ensure emi didn't look like she'd been buying too many lemons recently

/edit wow her hair is really effed up. I'll fix it tomorrow

 

[Jintor]

 

[FelixOrion]

So good

[Menome]

Part of me wants that artbook. The other part of me is worried what sort of artbook it'll be to have on my shelf.

I assume they'll eventually put it up for download like all the others?

 

[Menome]

Yeah, but it's not the same as having it on paper.

 

[Jintor]

I'm hoping they have some copies left for Winter Comiket. I dunno if I ever want to travel around Japan in Summer ever again @_@

definitely not to comiket

Actually, I looked at the twitters of some of the artists and I guess they posted a preview of an Emi page and it was soft porn very much in the vein of the cover, so yeah this is probably one case where you can literally judge a book by its cover.

It's the Dangerous art book on sale for those that couldn't get it from the cons

 

[Astarte]

I've really been missing out by not checking this thread :/
Artbooks and animations, geezzzz. I really wanted to buy a physical copy of KS/any artbook but I guess I missed the train on that.
Anyways, after 2843 threads of /ksg/ and a few years of time KS is getting a piano collection by the game's composer.

That's nice! I've had the original soundtrack and I've listened to it so much that it's become kinda boring, so a piano collection is just what I need.

 

[Nocturnowl]

This always was one of those stealthily great soundtracks, I'm on board for this piano collection.

Interesting...
Doesn't sound to bad. I'll probably get this but won't listen to it like I did with the original soundtrack mostly out of fear for feels coming back to me hehehe.

3 years on and feels still get to me. Everytime Raindrops and Puddles comes on during shuffle I get reduced to a sad mess

I can't muster up the courage to go through that again. Even when I want to listen I just can't lol

 

[Jintor]

I should really replay this one of these days

You can buy some online, I think.

Also that music, fuck.

Really? Where?!
Raindrops and Puddles still gets me. Having the composer release like 10 variants of the song isn't helping ; w;
