Yandere (ヤンデレ?) A Japanese term for a person who is initially very loving, caring, and gentle to someone (or at least innocent) they really, truly like and care for a lot before their romantic devotion becomes mentally destructive in nature, often through violence and/or brutality. The term is derived from the words yanderu (病んでる?) meaning a mental or emotional illness, and deredere (でれでれ?) meaning to show affection. Yandere characters are mentally unstable, and sometimes are incredibly deranged and are not mentally sane, often using extreme violence and/or brutality as an outlet for their emotions.

Imo, yes, sadder than either of those two. But that's my personal opinion of course.
 
 
 "Achieve your mission with all your might.
Despair not until your last breath.
Make your death count!" - Motto of Isumi's Valkyries
This, really, explained the death of the characters. While it was sad that they died, it wasn't quite so tragic, as they gave their lives for the greater good.
 
 
The epilogue was quite sad, but the ending was quite happy, mitigating the overall sadness. What an emotional rollercoaster the last 2 hour of the VN was!
 
You don't have to read Clannad to read Tomoyo After, but at the very least I'd recommend reading Tomoyo's route in Clannad to get all the backstory.

I have read only one work of Nietzsche, but there he never was negative about existence at all. I wonder if it's in another work of his, or whether it's just that a lot of people think that's what Nietzsche wrote.


μTorrent on Mac has no ads. What now fools!


Neither does it have ads on Andoid.

Wow, $75 for the Key Anni (well $65 shpping, but still...). I'm jealous :p. Hmm the Little Busters music wasn't too memorable for me, but I really like Alicemagic, and its remixes. Out of the four Key VNs (Rewrite, Clannad, Tomoyo After, Little Busters) that I read, I liked Rewrite the most. Tomoyo After though, was possibly the saddest VN that I've read.
 
My friend told me he got me some Touhou goodies from C84, but he won't tell me what they are! Then he's going to Puerto Rico right after he comes back to NY so he won't be back until August 21st :frowning2:. Ahhh suspense! And dx50.

Yeah, believe it or not it's actually not hard to find! But usually it runs about 10k yen, or more than what I paid... :p
the OP and EDs will probably stick with me the most. I'm actually quite surprised though, I never liked any of the music either on the first play through or two but now the character songs have me quite hooked on the music ^_^
Dammit, I'll have to start rewrite ASAP after you say that! D:
But yeah, TA was definitely really really sad... *Waits patiently for memorial edition to be translated*
Btw, would you like to join our Facebook or Skype group?

gotta play that someday.... do I have to play clannad first? I've only watched the anime (which sucks imo)...

You don't have to read clannad, anime is fine. But if you didn't really like it, no guarantees you will like TA.

So. I see that Head-fi's UI has changed. Or it's just me not coming here for about a month :p Looks slicker somehow. 
 
Does anyone have the summer season chart? Tried to go to twitter to see it, but all the photos are spring. I see fall has a lot of good shows coming. Lot's of VN's are going to be adapted.
 
Also Finished TWEWY: SR
 
Think that's the best story line I've played to date.

Rewrite's common route was lots of fun, especially scenes with Yoshino (basically he's like Clannad's Sunohara, but less pathetic and more badass). I think you'll really enjoy it, especially if you liked Little Buster's common route.
 
Isn't the memorial edition of TA the same, but with just the ero scenes removed? The ero scenes right at the start of the TA were really lame -_-.
 
I don't use FB and I don't log on Skype much, but I'll join the Skype group :D

The fall chart looks a looot more promising imo.

Oh, and there was Planetarian too, so that makes 5 Key VNs.

It's got a lot more shounen and plot. Lots of s2. Good think that the author of IS recovered a year or 2 ago

Sounds familiar :p

Haha, I see
I just felt really bad for meiya when this happened.... and then she dies off without confessing her feelings....
Well she's my fav character anyway.
Indeed, the epilogue brought me to tears since the insert song "Close your eyes" by Ayane started playing
and almost cried when this last CG came up....
