I never really got that “don’t believe Yuri’s lies” thing.

Hello! I’m Oriko from Finland. I’m also known Geinonen in some places, and uhh, I’ve read most of the Key VN’s, and I’m reading AIR at the moment. I also like VN’s in general. There are also this I’ve made in the past for fun.
If I had to say something about my favourites, they would probably be Kotarou as the best Key girl, and Haruka as the best Key boy. Key theorycrafting is fun, so I hope we can have many fruitful discussions in the future!
A wise person once said this about Key:
“In Key visual novels, Everybody has a cancer.”
Now that I think about it, he weren’t that wrong.

Oh, I’ve seen that before! I don’t remember where, but it was a while ago~
I’m looking forward to Yusa, TK and Shiina~ Yusa is my favorite, ahaha.
I do remember seeing that Starfish somewhere… Maybe on reddit?

I see an Aspirety! Small world. ^^
It is, Key fans tend to stand out in good, and in bad… Atleast lately that has been the case (clannad_mans kickstarter)

Aspirety is everywhere now that he is recognizable. Look back at big Key things and he’s there~
Well it’s really a small fan-base~ The same names will show up all the time!
Oh, can I just say… I would love for an actual professional company to document Key >.> Get sbchoomer to subtitle it~

Hey everyone! Good to meet all of you guys!
I’m a long time Key fan, and my favorite work in Clannad. Surprisingly, my favorite character is actually Ryou, but I have no shortage of beloved Key characters.
To wit, I’ve read through all of Clannad and Planetarian, and have Little Busters, Kanon, and Rewrite all at various levels of completion. It’s one of my summer projects to finish all the main series Key novels.
Aside from the VN’s, I’ve watched the Kanon, Air, Clannad + AS, and Angel Beats anime.
More than anything else, though, I love the music from Key’s works. “Melancholy” is one of the most interesting emotions, and I feel like Key really excels in evoking it with their music. As such, I love all of the intense numbers, like “Roaring Tide,” “Sanka,” “Toudo Kougen,” and “Fuyu no Hanabi.” I’ve probably spent more money on Key Sounds Label albums than I can reasonably justify…
Looking forward to becoming a part of this community!

Welcome! Great to have you!
I would highly recommend that~ I’ve heard they’re pretty good stories www
And yes, KSL is wonderful, isn’t it? I plan to gather all the albums I can when I’m able. >.<
Welcome. Glad you could make it.
Nice. Roaring Tides has always been the song I wanted to learn once I got my own piano and it is a fantastic song. I hope that I can purchase some Key Sounds Label albums soon.
Couldn’t have put it better myself.

If you haven’t yet, be sure to grab all the piano arrangement albums. There are some really beautiful songs there that I hope to learn some day…
