Poll: Your First Katawa Shoujo Girl

I went with Emi first. I wanted to choose Hanako's path first but I choose to run with Emi which caused me to go down her path. I wasn't disappointed about it though. I thought it was pretty good. I did Hanako's after that and I am now on Shizune's. I don't really care for Shizune's path though. Shizune as a character is fine but her path is pretty boring.
So I'm the only person who accidentally ended up alone and falling off the roof of the school the first time through... ?
I went for Emi first after that, and saved Rin for last.

Isn't that, like... the hardest ending to get?shrekfan246 said:
OT: I accidentally fell into Emi's arc, like many others. Her flags are way too early/easy to trigger, I think.
So I wound up expending as much feel as I could with her arc; I got attached and couldn't go through with a second run. It felt weird.
I did go through all of Shizune's arc though. Personally... I think it was a waste of my time (read: a lot of it).
I don't know. D:The_Echo said:
All I know is that I stumbled into it and was incredibly confused, then dead.
Perhaps my foreveralone level is so high that it extends even to visual novels.
That would be something.
No, you're just the first one to have the cajones to admit it.shrekfan246 said:So I'm the only person who accidentally ended up alone and falling off the roof of the school the first time through... ?

OT: Wound up with Hanako the first time around, liked her very much due to empathising with her somewhat, even managed to get her good ending on my first try. Only just recently started my second playthrough, and have decided to go with Emi this time, here's hoping her story turns out to be as good.
I think I hit like, one flag for each of them or something (or as many as were up to that point in the story, I don't remember how many choices were before that scene anymore either), so it didn't decide on any of them.The_Echo said:
I don't remember, it's been a while.
Hanako. As soon as I saw the character art I said, "Yup, she's first." After that, it was Lily as sort of a natural progression. Got the good ending for her but thought that it was the bad end at first (you know how it goes.)
Third was Emi. I managed to get the good ending by calling her a selfish *****. Yeah, I wasn't gonna take that "you don't understand my pain DRAMAAAA" bullshit.
Fourth was Shizune, which I got the bad end the first time because sex.

I know exactly how you feel. I was dating a girl over the summer. She was great and, now that I think about it, a lot like Emi. Cute, funny and always full of energy, but long distance relationships are hard and she didn't want to have that sort of stress along with both of us being in first year of university. The fact that Emi as a character and her story are similar to mine might be part of the reason I feel a huge connection to her and why I'm loving the story that much. Doesn't help that Hisao acts a lot like I did, always teasing and just having fun. Her being short doesn't help either.chadachada123 said:
Just like the majority here, my first was Emi as well. And, like many others, I was aiming for someone else, namely Lilly. But I did end up enjoying Emi's path. though. While it did have some awkward moments (I think we all know that one moment) I really liked how it ended, the last act was the highlight of it for me.
Just finished Rin's path yesterday, it got me pretty... Well, I'm not sure if it's the right word to use here, but exhausted. It just keeps going up and down and up and down and I just don't know what to think of it anymore. Not like that's a bad thing, I'm pretty sure it was meant to be like that. Rin just made me angry many times during that route.
Lilly and Hanako are definitely my favourites, especially Lilly. Not spoiling anything, but sadly I got the neutral ending with Lilly on my first try. I finished it at around 2 AM and I just couldn't sleep after witnessing that ending. It got me so damn depressed. The next day I found that there's a better ending, I just had to change one choice during the game. Replayed it and many tears were shed, most of them not that manly. Hanako's good ending got me crying as well. Actually, all the paths got me crying at many points.
Except Shizune, haven't started that path yet and I probably wont. Can't stand her, to be honest.

The same happened for me except I intended to go with Hanako. The doctor said I should exercise and she offered to help. I didn't realise it led to her story, but found out from a friend that once you have started running you can't really change person.mitchell271 said:
I started again and decided to visit the library instead.
Although I tried Emi's story after. I have gone through all stories except Rin's which I have been halfway through for ages.
I just went we're I went and ended up with Lily, who had a great story BTW. At first I thought it would be Shizune ...boy, that got a little awkward a couple times.
Yep, I'm of the I-raced-Emi-and-unwillingly-ended-dating-her crowd. She's an OK character. I was going for Rin though. Also... you can end with Kenji? Or is that a poll joke?
My first was Shizune. I can't believe I got her though what with everyone of my friends I introduced this visual novel to got Emi on their first try. I guess I got lucky when I decided to tell the Doctor that maybe I would run. Oh and Shizune was the one I wanted.
Based on what? I don't recall a Kenji-specific decision anywhere in the first act...Silvianoshei said:
