I got Hanako's bad ending by accident the first time. Scared me for a bit. Then I got the right choice and I was cured.
Im on my first play through of the game and because of the choices I made up until the end of act 1, I had to do the Shizune route, because it was either that or it was "manly picnic"
False sense of security, its a double mind came where I tell you my plan without telling you my plan. Obviously you wouldn't understand, now if you excuse me Im off to go liberate some books from the feminist library.
I would like to state that people need to be able to relate to Hisao to get a true feeling about this game. People who cannot relate so far: Cardjr Stalin
Stalin said that when he saw the scene where Hanako and Hisao are on the ground crying, proclaim their love for each other , his thoughts on it were "hey, we're together kind of sort of." Which brings me to my next point, in a previous podcast, the crew were talking about Mass Effect sex scenes. Stalin said that he felt an emotional connection between the characters because of the sex scenes. So my hypothesis is the the only way for Stalin to become emotionally attached to characters in a game is that they have to have a sex scene with them in it.
This game makes me sad as I know this type of relationship(s) would never happen in real life, I need to become a fictional character.
