Cute Girl Impressions

… … … … … … … …. … … …

So, anyway, herein I document my impressions of cute 2d girls. Don't expect anything worthwhile, because all this is is just me sharing impressions, and since somebody being perceived as "cute" hardly is something you can rationalize, this is kind of retarded from the get-go. This is NOT a review or analysis, and it's obviously the qualitatively worst page on the whole site.

CLANNAD girls

So far I've played Nagisa's, Mei's, and Ryou's route and figured so far I enjoyed Ryou the most. She is really shy and timid, and the whole route consists of her sister pushing her to be the gf of the protagonist (which turns out to be deeper than originally thought, since her sister does it out of some psychological complex or whatever). The later part of the story where the protagonist tried to kiss her sister and was almost unfaithful to her was nearly unbearable, since it was stretched for so long. Every time you met up with her, she was pretending to be really happy and optimistic, and YOU thought it was actually how she was, and thus it was heartbreaking, since you know you did something wrong, and she just kept on being happy. I guess it's a Nakige after all and the purpose is to make you cry, so it's not like I wasn't aware that it was going to be sad, yet it was still heartbreaking to read. The gimmick of her being a fortune teller was cute too. Before I never thought too much about that, however now it seems like it fits her personality well, and deepens it thus. For a moment I thought the bandaids on her arms where due to cutting scars, and it seemed a reasonable assumption, since she was hiding pain that she couldn't show anyone, and all that, but in retrospect it might as well be just from the cooking. In particular because they were on her hands and not her arms.

So yeah, Ryou for the win. Perhaps Fuuko is also cool, because she was my favorite character in the anime, which I watched a year prior. We'll see.
