Apologies if I sound like I'm gushing a bit more than usual, but there's a bit of context to today's video. I decided to play through Katawa Shoujo at the start of the year, thinking it'd be a nice cooldown game for Saturday. It wound up being one of my favorite games that I played this year, if not one of my favorite games ever. I don't know how the devs did it, but nearly every single character was likable (and those I didn't like, they gave me very good reasons not to), every single route ended up being great stories in their own right, and the game even provided some quality of life features that if they're not standard, they should be (though admittedly I don't play VNs that often). Accentuating all of this was the background music, which perfectly captured the mood in every case with such standout songs as "Shadow of the Truth", "Nocturne", "Parity", "Out of the Loop"- really, just the entire soundtrack is golden. I knew I'd eventually have the urge to do something from this game, so I went for "Painful History".

"Painful History" ended up being one of my two favorites from the soundtrack by the end of the game, probably because its a good character theme for Hinako Ikezawa and fits the melancholy mood of her route so well. I do think Hinako is a great character for a variety of reasons (her affinity for games like chess and pool, for one), though she's admittedly not my favorite character. I dunno if that says more about Hinako or more about how the game's writing is so strong that Hinako's *only* 'a great character'. I'm hesitant to delve deep into what I mean out of not wanting to spoil the game, so I'll leave it at that.
