So, is this mocking or becoming the thing you think you are mocking?


JimL2 - 2010-09-06

I don't know anything about 4chan, but this video was just a bunch of static pictures of girls standing around. Not even one wheelchair in sight.

The world of datings sims says hello!


oddeye - 2010-09-06

They are paralyzed you insensitive fuck.


FABIO - 2010-09-06

If they were Tim & Eric in wigs people would be 5 starring it.


Sundry - 2010-09-06

This really doesn't expose the game for how horrible it is.
Every girl has a different dissability. Rather than even approach the subject with any class, each dissability is the focus of the girl's personality and her "cuteness".

For example, the girl with no arms grabs stuff with her mouth and requires the player's help to open doors or go to the bathroom.
The blind girl is constantly lost and will "cutely" call out for the player if she thinks the player has left the room.

And so on.

That's not even the half of it, if you really want to get creeped out look up the story this is apparently based on.

Are dating sim trailers supposed to be a series of images with no explanation besides "girls"?

help me out here, poetv

"Katawa Shoujo (かたわ少女 Katawa Shōjo?, lit. "Disability Girls" or "Cripple Girls") is a bishoujo-style visual novel by Four Leaf Studios that tells a story of a young man and five other girls suffering with varying disabilities. The game uses a traditional text and sprite-based visual novel model with an ADV-style text box. As of now, only the demo has been released."

All things considered, wikipedia is pretty nice to this game. WAY too nice.


fluffy - 2010-09-06

The Wikipedia editors are probably looking forward to it but don't want to seem non-neutral.

I'm morbidly curious enough to download the demo.


fluffy - 2010-09-07

So I downloaded the demo. I actually made it through until the protagonist introduces himself to the class and notices every little aspect of his fellow students which made them "disabled" (missing thumbs, permanently-bandaged-up hands, etc.) before I couldn't take any more of its shitty, overblown internal monologue.


Disaster - 2010-09-06

My ex boyfriend was obsessed with this game.


Sundry - 2010-09-06

Disaster, I demand you tell us the tale of this freak and how it came to be that he made known his obsession to you.


Lindner - 2010-09-06

I was there at the beginning, when they were still sorting things out. This consisted of things such as voting on whether the thalidomide girl would have stumps or they'd keep the flippers.

... I voted for stumps. Flippers would kill my boner.


RocketBlender - 2010-09-06

Did you guys break up because you wouldn't develop a disability for him?


Disaster - 2010-09-07

He kept telling me about this AWESOME game that 4chan people were making and he would talk about it NON-STOP "Katakawa shoujo" this and "Katakawa shoujo" that and finally I figured I would humor him and see what he was babbling about and he played the WHOLE game from start to finish when I went over to his house to finally see it. He'd gotten all the endings and all the art and everything unlocked and pretty much played it whenever we weren't together. He quoted it sometimes and it was odd.


Caminante Nocturno - 2010-09-07

Maybe it wouldn't have been as weird if you had supported me HIM!!!

SUPPORTED HIM!!!

SHIT!!!


oddeye - 2010-09-07

So, you busy later tonight?


FABIO - 2010-09-06

DORA XL5 STAINLESS STEEL HOOKS!!!!!


Sudan no1 - 2010-09-06

USA! USA!


Influence Device TIMR - 2010-09-06

EVERYBODY SHUT UP

THIS IS BAFFLING

ONE STAR


Caminante Nocturno - 2010-09-06

So, am I to understand that you've all resolved to be spineless little pussies your entire lives, or are you ever going to look into this whole "manning up" thing the adults around you keep talking about?

PS: Hanako is the hottest.


RocketBlender - 2010-09-06

What's the disability of the girl with the dark hair and the glasses? Please tell me she's the blind one. I just think it'd be funny if the blind girl was always wearing a pointless pair of glasses.


Aoi - 2010-09-06

She's deaf.

There is a running joke about the asshole misogynist roommate of the main character asking her why she needs glasses if she's deaf, though.

I think you all have problems, anyway. In your pants.


Caminante Nocturno - 2010-09-06

Her name is Shizune, and the only problem I have in my pants is that a girl with significant scar tissue covering her body isn't in them.

Although I wouldn't kick the deaf girl out of my pants.

As long as we're being honest.


WHO WANTS DESSERT - 2010-09-06

If they were Tim & Eric in wigs people would be 5 starring it.


Udderdude - 2010-09-06

The source image all the weeaboos based the characters/concept on : http://shimmie.katawa-shoujo.com/image/9.jpg

I don't think having half your face burned off counts as a disability .. but what do I know?


FABIO - 2010-09-06

Does it severly damage her self esteem so she'll be desperate enough to go for disgusting otaku nerds?


GOOD ENOUGH!


Mancakes - 2010-09-06

One day with a terrible hangover and an existential crisis I ended up playing this. It was tedious, and I never got to fuck the burned chick. It left me disappointed and ashamed.


rawelkij - 2010-09-06

-1 star for the video, but the concept is evil enough.


Riskbreaker - 2010-09-06

Was there any need to show the nude guy at the end?


stage - 2010-09-06

This video is shit and illustrates nothing.


wtf japan - 2010-09-07

Guys, I don't know what all this 4chan nonsense is about. Katawa Soujo is clearly based on Der Zauberberg by Thomas Mann.


Squeamish - 2010-09-07

For fuck's sake.
