Despite being left with legs amputated below the knee, Emi is perhaps one of the most cheery, happy-go-lucky girls on the entire globe, let alone the school. Not one to be left in despair even after the accident that claimed her legs, Emi views her disability more as a blessing, her prosthetic legs having brought her to the heights of her ability on the track team rather than becoming a permanent obstacle.

At a young age, Hanako had a traumatic experience that left her life in shambles. Her father died when their home burned down in an accident, which also disfigured Hanako herself permanently.

Her only trusted friend is Lilly, who has taken Hanako under her wing ever since the two were introduced to each other.

Since Rin’s arms are tiny stumps due to a severe birth defect and subsequent surgery, she uses her feet and occasionally her mouth to do everything, which includes painting. Because of her disability, using skirts is tough, so Rin is wearing a boy’s uniform at school. Her creativity is matched by her philosophical streak: Rin is fond of occasionally getting lost in thought and giving voice to abstract ideas about man, the universe, and other things that thoroughly confuse people.

Strong willed and forceful, Shizune is definitely the leader type. She’s been the class rep, despite being deaf and mute, for as long as her class has had one, and generally takes charge in just about any situation she’s placed in. Shizune is known around the school as a fearsome taskmaster, and skilled manipulator, but also as a fair and just leader.

Minor Characters
Borderline hikkikomori, Kenji likes to spend a lot of time in his room, planning for whatever the radical feminist movement's next move may be. He is leery of the instant attraction that Hisao seems to have brought upon himself, but nonetheless very pleased to finally have a hallmate.
The chief of the nurse staff of Yamaku, and a surprisingly young person for someone in his position. He is a funny and jovial guy, always good for a laugh and well liked by students. Nonetheless, he has a heart of pure gold and he is very passionate and serious about his job.
Both homeroom and science teacher of 3-3, and just as much out of touch with his class as he is out of touch with reality. Probably born to be a teacher (no matter how much his students disagree), his greatest skill is the ability to ignore irrelevant things completely (no matter how much anyone who wishes he'd remember their names disagrees).
Yuuko has serious problems with managing her life, which makes her the perfect person to ask for help to manage one's own. She funds her university studies by working part time at a popular cafe. The lengths she goes to avoid being fired for her natural clumsiness bewilder other people, along with her neurotic attention to detail and frequent streaks of depression.
This game is an absolutely iconic piece of gaming history, as far as I am concerned. When you hear that "4chan made an eroge about dating disabled girls" online, you wouldn't necessarily be wrong in thinking the worst, at least initially. However, this game tastefully tackles the topics of disabilities, loss, mental health, and appreciating your life.While some parts of the game show a bit of age (this was made well over a decade ago), the story still holds up perfectly. This is a game that I can recommend to many people wholeheartedly, even more so now that it's on Steam. You have nothing to lose in trying it out, if you haven't played it before: it's free, it has glowing reviews (both on Steam and just about anywhere else online), and it may just even change your life, or at least your outlook on it.It is worth noting, this is the All Ages release of the game. For many major visual novels published to Steam, you can OPTIONALLY add the cut content from the full releases back into the game through patches on the publisher's sites, and Katawa Shoujo is no different in that (you can get the patch on the game's itch.io site). However, I would say that you should patch this game regardless of if you want the H-scenes or not. Some important character development happens to occur in these scenes, and in multiple routes, so the exclusion of that content is a major detraction.
The art style, the story, the character development, the world building... ALL SO FANTASTIC! I've dedicated myself to getting 1 ending per day, and so far have gotten the good endings for Emi and Hanako, and am pleased with the results! If I were to save 1 VN game for future generations, it would be Katawa Shoujo, it's that good!
Katawa Shoujo is a vn I consider to be pretty good. The portrayal of disability in this game is very interesting to see as each character handles it differently. There are some weird character sprites in some moments but they aren't too jarring. Some of the character routes are lacking compared to the others which was disappointing. The highest compliments I could give is that the soundtrack is amazing and you should just play this game for the soundtrack alone. Also Hanako best girl
