Mugi Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Kind of goes for the normal ending as well. But, does Kirari ever actually go through with the whole prostitution job? Or is she stopped before anything could happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormwolf Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 In the normal she was a prostitute for a really short time if i'm not mistaken, but not in her true route. You can probably skip through the normal route if you want as it's just pointless filler. I don't know why it's even there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decay Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I believe she dies in the normal end before she takes on any work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormwolf Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Didn't she say something about her body now being dirty or something along those lines when she was in her hospital bed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mugi Posted January 24, 2016 Author Share Posted January 24, 2016 So normal (still dont know why it's considered a normal ending, seems like a bad ending to me) yes, true end no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormwolf Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Yep, it's a long bad ending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decay Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Maybe that's the case, if so then I don't really remember any more. Anyways, regarding the normal end not having any point, I dunno, I thought it was kind of interesting. Plenty of games have bad ends, but not many have a story about how the protagonist has to cope with the aftermath. It's a unique enough story that I didn't really dislike.

Okarin Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 About Kirari's normal/bad end, it doesn't warrant playing the game for that alone, and for me it isn't the best the game has to offer, but it's really interesting, as Decay says.

TexasDice Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I don't like the true ending at all, it was kind of bland and the fact that it needed a sequel to get (much needed) closure doesn't speak for its quality either. The bad/normal route on the other hand is probably my favorite VN experience period. No matter heartbreaking it was, that was quality on each and every corner. But to answer the question, I'm pretty sure she did not in either version. XReaper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valmore Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 It's been a bit, but I think she was for a very short time in the normal end before you get hit with enough feels to drive you nuts. Also, I don't think you can get other endings without the normal route so you can't not do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormwolf Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Yeah, i'm pretty sure she was a prostitute for a short while in the normal route. That route was more or less trying to get all that can go wrong, go wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canicheslayer Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I was so obsessed pleased by Chie's route that I couldn't found the motivation to read the two others. Maybe I Should listen to TexasDice's advice and read Kirari's Normal route Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Okarin Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 What I found... lacking in Chie's route was that Midori steals a lot of attention. Chie is outlined alright, though. Sarina is unexpectedly good also, but you may find her a bit vanilla. A real sweetheart nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decay Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 The whole arc surrounding Midori was awesome, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasDice Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I like Chie's route, because the climax of the script is just two people talking on a couch and it's somehow just a great sequence. My favorite scene from the entire VN, if I had to choose. Canicheslayer and Okarin 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyrt Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I rather enjoyed Kira Kira as a whole as it seemed to be exactly what I was looking for at the time. Good Ends, True Ends, and Bad Ends the game was enjoyable. I definitely agree with the other people that the normal kirari route was probably the most interesting route in the game. As far as the question of whether Kirari went into prostitution I'm pretty sure she did. Did she not quit her job because her father had found a better paying job for her? If I remember correctly she refused to explain the details of the job but explained they needed to put their relationship on hold until the family situation improved. What I can't remember is how long it took for the fire to happen after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercyZombie Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I think the fire happens almost immediately after they have their talk in the normal route. Not that it really matters since the end result is still the same. God damn hospital scene broke me. In the true route the fire does not happen because they drag on the time she has until she starts with a few day, claiming she is on her period (I assume she is just lying to them about her having her period, but I could just be overthinking it). Her father still eventually has his breakdown but he seems to have it a bit later instead because of it. Personally I think the normal ending is good but I feel like I'm one of the weird people that prefers the true ending. But I'm also a bit of a softy that likes happy endings. As long as they don't feel too forced at least. Also while we are on the subject of Chies's route being a bit weak. I liked the route because of Chie herself being a pretty likeable and relatable character and her being voiced by one of my favorite voice actors certainly does her no disfavors. But the route itself did feel a bit aimless after they returned home, compared to the other two routes. Felt a bit surprised when it suddenly ended. I was not aware that I was reading the ending until the credits suddenly rolled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whoisthatguy96 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I say playing the normal end correctly is highly recommended. Also, I don't think she started the prostitute job in the normal end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormwolf Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I didn't exactly know where i read it, but it was bugging me so i had to check. She was pretty much a prostitute for a.. well how long it was is entirely unknown, but i believe it was short. Spoiler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasDice Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 The technical aspects are part of my reasons for linking Deardrops more than KiraKira overall. But hey, atleast it's not Edelweiss 1.0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably to no ones surprise that Edelweiss 1.0 was translated in-house. That's never a good sign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
