What have you done with your life? Have you ever accomplished a dream you set out for yourself. This here is the story of one mans dream.

Katawa Shoujo

Starting all the way back in 2007 a design was posted on a Image board with one simple wish behind it. I want to date a disabled person. Not one for moral standards but mindful of the risk's of pursuing these goals in real life a team formed to help this man. We shall make it a visual novel a storybook game they said and cried together with joy long into the night..


On a more serious note after 2 years of hard work the team has something to show for it. A download able version of the latest work is available from their website here.

The main character suffers from arrhythmia meaning he has a crazy heart and is at risk of heart attacks.

This in turn sends him to a special school where he meets and interacts with other people with disability's. Heres the image that sparked the entire thing off.


on that note it seems to have quite a few fans already and is drawing in a lot of fan art.
The designs have changed and the team behind it has grown.I may have more if i can get over the feeling of shame to download it.

... OK not sure how I should feel about this one, I believe this has a deeper purpose - to show us that there is nothing wrong with dating a disabled person. Heck that chick in freddie got fingered is hot and she rides a rocket powered wheel chair! I'd do her!

the point was more to prove product placement is everything. no matter what the idea spread it somewhere and there is always the chance it will take off into something more.

How is this product placement? Some dude just fancied disabled girls and some other dude drew some pictures and turned it into visual novel; right?

no its more that he posted this up just by its self had it became a game. The original creator of the image was not on the team that made the game.

There is no such things as a bad idea. Someone will want to try it out.
