Some of the other girls are just too 'perfect'.

She can sometimes come off as a little bitchy, but I honestly liked that. The others you can pretty much tell what they're about in the first few minutes. I found her the most intriguing out of all of the characters. I found myself enjoying this one the most. There are some issues with repetitive sequences, too much text in each text box, and some strange reactions or lack thereof. I read somewhere (maybe here?) that the writer wanted to do a different route, and that might be the case. Shizune: most people seem to like this one the least. Now for everyone's favorite: route rankings.ДЎ.

Good writing for the most part, decent art, enjoyable characters, etc.

Kenji's black hair, round glasses and red-and-yellow scarf gives him something of a resemblance to Harry Potter of the Harry Potter series, with the scarf being similar to those provided to students belonging to House Gryffindor.So I played this a few months ago and I just feel like putting my thoughts down.

According to a fan poll on 4chan, Kenji is the most liked secondary character.

Kenji's surname Setou means 'swift current, rapids' (зЂ¬) ( se) and 'door' (ж€ё) ( tou).

The name Kenji means 'healthy, strong' (еЃҐ) or 'study, sharpen' (з ”) ( ken) and 'two' (дєЊ) ( ji).

Many fans speculate that the ex-girlfriend was Yuuko Shirakawa and this was true in the beta, but it was removed from the finished game. After the experience, Kenji claims he felt more fatigued than expected.ДЇrom this, he believed that there was something 'sinister was in the works' and formulated a theory that 'women are dangerous, sapping the life force of all men through the one commodity that is almost solely theirs to control'. According to him, he had sexual intercourse with her one time. In ' The Deep End', Kenji reveals that he once had a girlfriend, about a year before Hisao transferred to Yamaku. The player has four opportunities in Act 1 to make a 'bad choice' (depending on previous choices). It is worth noting that, in Act 2 of Emi's route, during the scene Piracy on the High Seas, Kenji mentions how 'if I were going to kill someone, I'd do it by throwing them off a roof and making it look like an accident,' setting sinister undertones to the end results of his 'route.' He leans back, falls off the roof of the building, and dies. When he suggests going trawling for women, Kenji leans uncomfortably toward Hisao. Hisao, in a drunken state, listens intently to Kenji's insane feminist conspiracy ramblings. The two boys have a 'manly picnic' on the roof, complete with whiskey and pretzels. On the day of the festival, Hisao Nakai finds he has nothing planned for the day, so Kenji invites him to his 'fort' on the roof of the school. Kenji has what can be defined as his own 'route', including an ending, which is colloquially known as 'death'. He also has a habit of getting inappropriately close to people's faces in order to identify them, rather than just asking who they are (due in part to his intermittent paranoia).Дespite his paranoid tendencies and misogynistic beliefs, Hisao believes at times that deep down, Kenji really is a decent person- for example, when he trips over Lilly's cane and accidentally drags her down with him as he falls over, he expresses concern for her, asking if she's alright and even attempting to help her up.

He also has a poor grasp of acceptable social protocol- at one point, he even goes into the bathroom naked, right as Hisao Nakai is leaving the shower, just to ask him to loan Kenji some money for a pizza. He is convinced that women are inherently dangerous, and thus avoids talking to them whenever possible- not even his class representative, Lilly Satou, is fully able to get him to open up to her. He has a marked misogynistic streak that is something of a defining characteristic for him. Kenji tends to vacillate between reclusive, suspicious, and paranoid, and calm, friendly, and mildly sociable (albeit fairly awkward to talk to).
