Will the Visual Novel have references or easter eggs in it?

The better question is why does that matter?

Some people like hunting for Easter Eggs in games I guess. I see no point in them myself.

What kind of references do you mean? That we do our research towards the disabilities properly or that we reference other animes/works in a cameo-like manner?

Also for easter eggs, here you are!

Curiosity might have killed the cat. Might have not. You'd have to open the box to find out.

Kitten-killing, you say...?

Also, asking for Easter Eggs is silly. Everybody knows there's no Easter Bunny.

Easter Eggs are good if they're not forced. For example I did not understand Lelouch, male-Haruhi, etc. in classroom panorama of KS. It was just... random.

The most likely to blend in Easter Eggs of MS would be about KS. Obviously, they would be extremely indirect since even though Easter Eggs have absolutely nothing to do about plagiarism, MS project has quite many haters already, and not everyone actually understand the light year of distance between a pun and a copy-cat game with swapped character names. Also the games take place in different continents, etc. At the very least they could reference lemon or chocolate (even if just for eating), etc. Very obscure and very easy to pass by unnoticed. Obviously, even if they didn't want to create an Easter Egg, they'd still probably create something that would be mistaken as such. :p

As for non-KS Easter Eggs... I'm pretty sure they'd hide some dev humour into it. Preferably hide. I don't want actual eels in there.
But would they actually qualify as Easter Eggs if they're in-game (or dev) jokes instead of outside references?

Ah, whatever. Writers and artist do what they want. If there's a VHS set of Carl Sagan's Cosmos on some random book shelf, I'm pretty sure very few would even notice it. So I'm not sure if it matters. But the better they're hidden, the funnier is to find any (potential) reference.

There probably will be some kind of obscure easter eggs, but we are not supposed to know that. >Then it would no longer be surprising.
