87 apparently!
Here goes my ādos centavosā:
- Where in the world do you live?
Mootxico; some miles north of Mexico City. A fairly calm town near one of the biggest cities in the world >:3
- What Key games or Anime have you read/watched?
Anime: Both Kanon adaptations; both Air adaptations; Clannad and After Story by Kyoto Animation; Angel Beats! by P.A. Works, and Little Busters! and Refrain by JC Staff. Have yet to see LB!EX OVAs. Also, I havenāt watched Clannad movie
VNs: All but Rewrite (RL stuff kept me from starting), Rewrite HF (Rewrite required for this one), Kud Wafter (not enough Japanese knowledge), and LB!EX (at least, the parts that not were in the vanilla LB!). It even includes the pre-Key VNs such as MOON, and One
- Which was your first, and which is your favourite?
Anime: Air TV was what introduced me to Key works and make me discover Fred Gallagher is (was?) a Key fan from much longer than I. It has a special place in my heart and during years was among my favorite anime of all time
VN: Planetarian. There was a time when this was the only Key VN fully translated; Air VNTL has been taken and dropped at least twice, Clannad was in an open wiki and Kanon progressed at a snailās pace. Little Busters! didnāt even existed back then. Long were the years before I started reading the other VNs en masse. Only Air and Little Busters! were able to make me cry but I liked the others too <3
- How did you find Kazamatsuri.org?
Stalking various Key fansā Twitter accounts, they were talking about the creation of this forum.
BONUS OPTIONAL QUESTION:
Tell us something interesting about yourself, something about our website that interested you, or something funny.
- TACOS!!!
- I have seen many fads come and go but somehow Key works have stuck on me for the lastā¦ 8 years already? Wow! Also, Key works have been the beacon of both personal improvement and innovation
- Non-Key interests? Kancolle. Old 80ās arcade games, Portal 1&2, the Wolfenstein series (a.k.a. the Nazi killing games), Music in general (from classic to metal to Key Sounds Label), some anime (Steins;Gate, Madoka, TTGL, SZS, Nanoha, Aria, Azumanga Daioh come to mind)ā¦
Hello there!
Vatina here, been watching the website for a while and thought Iād try and sign up for the forums
Hmm as for what Key stuff I have read/watched, one of my first introductions into the whole VN medium was learning about the then-new Air anime through reading Megatokyo. I instantly fell in love with it, and ended up importing the Kanon game from Japan while the translation was still underway.
I have watched Air, Kanon 2006, Clannad and Angel Beats, and have read Planetarian, Kanon, Little Busters and Rewrite.
There is generally stuff I find charming about Key works, even if I find some of them do have their faults as well. My favourite so far is definitely the Little Busters vn, and the Kanon anime.
Kazamatsuri I found through twitter! Been following it there for a little while, after catching a retweet from someone else.
Iām an artist/writer and work on visual novels myself, my latest work has been the fantasy vn Blue Rose. As such I will probably mostly be taking part in posting art and the like! Nice to meet you all
Welcome!
Wow, Blue Rose? What parts did you work on?
Oh you know it? I was the writer/programmer/lineart artist heh.
I havenāt read it yet (Iām not doing very well financially ;A;) but Iāve heard of it. I follow Winter Wolves quite a bit, and I remember somehow finding it through them~
Lineart artist? So someone else did the coloring/shading? @.@ Sounds confusing. Itās nice to have an experienced creative person here! Weāre sorely lacking >.>
Oh thatās great to hear And no worries, we canāt all play everything at once.
And yeah, I had a different person colour the characters, and a third did most of the backgrounds. Doing almost all of the game was a big task, so that helped me out a lot in finishing things.
Welcome. Glad to have you here.
Thanks, and good to hear Looking forward to it.
Gotta come up in here and be all cool and stuff~
Welcome ~! Itās a huge pleasure to have you. ^^ Iāll have to check out that VN. :o
Hi Iām a fan Clannad, Rewrite, Planetarian
I found this site by Google searching Sekai & Planetarian whilst looking for press coverage.
Iām a self trained digital artist and I have done several Clannad Fan Pieces
Currently I work in Visual Novel Marketing/PR for studios such as Lupiesoft with Sekai Project as our Publisher.
Iām becoming more and more involved in the visual novel western scene as time goes on and hope to help it grow.
My fav arc in Clannad is Misaeās
Thatās been my favorite so far, reading. ^^
Also welcome! Itās a great thing that you do and Iām happy to see you on Kazamatsuri~ I hope you enjoy your stay.

Yaaay, Misae. That was a very fun route. The routine was relaxing, and it got really interesting. Surprisingly we donāt have a discussion thread for Misaeās route, but itās very popular here~
