Little Busters! Kud Route

Lets see if I can grab all my tweets. Tweets come first, review will be at the bottom of the post.

I was wrong, Kud route comes first! #lbkrr

>Play with Masato
>Masato isn’t here…so I can’t play
>Me: “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!” #lbkrr

The answer to this pictures question is: She is having downs syndrome http://yfrog.com/h3fgktoj

Masato: It’s okay Riki, I’ll be happy so long as you just say ‘muslces’ for me
OH SHIT THAT’S GOD-TIER AWESOME

OH GOD EPIC KICK THE CAN ACTION AWAITS! KYOANI WHY AREN’T YOU ANIMATING THIS?

Alright! Now the fun begins. I just passed the branch point for Kud’s Route. WAFOO WAFOO

“I like walking in alleyways” Kud is going to get raped. That’s the twist in this route isn’t it?

Nice pillow will be the next Nice boat. I’m calling it now.http://yfrog.com/h88t2jbbj

Reminder: I try to be as spoiler free as possible with my LB! Route Reviews

Cell phones. (Not) serious business in the world of Little Busters!

Japanese cell phone catalogs. If I am to go according to Little Busters!, the phone pics are lifesize to see if they fit your hands. Fuck yes.

The flaxen hair flowing from under her hat filled my vision.
Flaxen…that word…kind of annoying.

“Look, the light’s blue now”
OH GOD I’M GONNA HAVE TO GET USED TO BLUE LIGHTS

I swear to God, if I had to read Komari’s route one more time, I’d kill myself because her voice is so grating

Kud and Masato are totally meant for each other.

There seems to be an oddly great amount of discussions throughout this novel about the most random assortment of things.
Pancakes. Books. Cell phones. Dogs.

If I were part of the Little Busters!, I’d be great friends with Masato and Haruka. I just seem to click with those two. MAYBE…MAYBE I COULD BE A RITORU BASU-TA? Though, I’d probably find myself following Riki around quite alot because that’s what I do. I follow the quiet guys in groups I’m a part of.

Komari teaching Kud English is exactly how Japanese class went for me…though I never understood as much as Kud did

Jeez, trying to decipher Kud’s engrish is a taxing ordeal for even me

Kud thinks “Get into gear” means: To wish be a gear; But why? To visit the planet of robots

And once again, Masato quotes me verbatim: Hey, they’re studying even during break. What’s wrong with them?
Masato: What’s the next class
Riki: Math
Masato: …Man, I shouldn’t have woken up. I’ll go back to sleep.
I know your pain

Kud: Hai, Hello-desu
Oh sure that’s all fine and-you just mixed up English and Japanese like it was perfectly normal

looked up at the title bar for the program, you know where it says the program name? It said Little Busters! Kudryavka, but I almost had a heart attack when I read it as Little Busters! Kurugaya.

>fruit yogurt sandwich What

2 Days Later In The Real World (I took a break from reading)

By the way, I tried a fruit yogurt sandwich. That shit was nasty yo

The engrish…oh god….it’s so…so…HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNG

When I hear someone say “あ！そうだ！” I always ask, “Where?! I’m parched!” No one’s laughing now and no one laughed back in Japanese class

Haruka is so obnoxious

She isn’t too smart either

Masato gets great grades if he studies. Isn’t that the same for everyone?

クドの「どきどき」は”So excited”？ｗｗｗｗ

“After all, studying is what students are supposed to do”
Ho-ho-ho-ho….hahaa….yeah

I’d really like to know where the High Schools with Dormitories idea came from. Do those really exist as much as we see in anime/vns?

I’d like more pages for my binder if you know what I meanhttp://yfrog.com/h8ik1gej

No, Kud, please, tell me more about your nationality, I find it soooooo intriguing!

The word “dejected” is used quite a lot in this route isn’t it…

Those bitches, making fun of Kud. I enjoy stories that involve bullying because they are
really sad. Which is why I enjoyed Yume Miru Kusuri

Oh man, Refrain is going to be so fucking sad

Wafuu! I too want to hold kud and spin her around in circles

“That’s right, in Kyousuke’s words, I want you to be tropical super great straight with me”
Best. Line. Ever

This whole scene with Masato is why I think he’s the best side character in anything I’ve ever
read. And why Key is so great at writing sc’s, Because they keep it real, he feels like an sc
still, but an important one. His refrain goodbye is going to really make me cry. Masato is, to
put it simply, one of the best written characters I’ve ever read. I hope that Key continues to
write great SC’s like this

Well that’s just one of the cutest things I’ve ever heard. “I got to have you to myself for a
whole day, Riki”

“I guess I have to give you a reward, what do you want?” “A Kiss” “…..” “…..” I totally
saw that one coming.

I guess if KyoAni does animate Little Busters!, they’ll give kud her own episode or two like
they did with CLANNAD

OUT OF NOWHERE, KYOUSUKE. WHERE THE FUCK HAVE YOU BEEN?! He better have a lot of presence in
Refrain

Never could figure out what was going on in the CGs for this scene, up until now I thought it
was some curse. This CG http://yfrog.com/h2n1mtuj

“What I was doing was simple enough: inscribing my feelings upon her body by way of drawing”
Nope, that’s more DEEEEEP than simple

“I’m not really ready to talk about it yet, could you give me some more time?” What, is Kud
pregnant or something, because honestly, after finding out what that CG was used for, I’m
pretty disappointed.

Wow Key, for an all ages version of the game, you sure are explicit when it comes to kissing
and making out.

Here we go, the flashback story, Kud version. Get ready for the tears

Oh no…

Oh…well, that wasn’t anything bad at all. After all, Kud is pretty “spacey” hee hee hee

Masato: Seriously? who could it be…I hardly ever get calls or texts…I’m kind of excited
<–I KNOW HOW THAT FEELS

Rin: Daijyobu, mondainai….kigasu Oh yeah, just tack on -kigasu-, like I do whenever I’m not
sure I’m saying something right

Oh no…seriously this time…oh no
Oh no….jesus christ why would you do that?!
Oh for fucks sake, it’s just getting worse and worse, almost to the point of ridiculousness
HOLY. FUCKING. SHIT. MY MOUTH IS LITERALLY WIDE OPEN AND WON’T CLOSE EVEN NOW.
Wow, talk about a bad end. More like…devastating end. That one is gonna be with me for a
while, so thanks a lot scenario writer.

Let’s try this again from the save point
Oh fuck no, don’t tell me the same thing happens either way
Oh god, it’s even worse this time around

This is sad, immensely so, but also just got a tad ridiculous

Awww, now that’s a happy ending to a very devastating story.

Some afterthoughts:
Out of all the routes so far that I’ve read (All minus Haruka), this was by far the best. I can see why she got her own game too. The writing was once again stupendous and the drama was great. That felt like I was reading and watching CLANNAD’s After Story all over again. There was just so much emotion being thrown around, and honestly, I needed a good cry. If you read Little Busters!, please, don’t control skip your way through this arc, it’s just too great to pass up.

Addon Thoughts: I discussed very briefly in the comments what I actually found bad about the arc. I don’t usually think about these things, though I absolutely should. Here is what I think.
The arc, after the point at which she is kidnapped, was rushed. I really wanted to know how Kud got kidnapped, by whom, where she was, the little things. It would also be nice to find out what came of her parents. In the bad end, her mom was shot (that was horrible, you can see this in the twitter commentary), but what about the good end? They never explain anything. And how about that KEY MAGIC(TM)? That was some great stuff right there.
