I actually haven't completed the demo yet but from what I can see it's basically her lost in her own little world. Does not necessitate a mental problem, there are perfectly fine people who demonstrate the same sort of [otherworldly] mentality. Might also have to do with the fact that she's an artist. Now Kenji, on the other hand, he has issues...

She also spent an entire night in a fetal position outside the dorms, she didn't sleep and immediately went to painting the mural after Emi found her.

Well I've already though about how it might be her personality (before I got the idea that it might be a mental problem), but there's too much that doesn't fit. It'd be easier to explain if you'd actually beaten Rin's path in the demo. She isn't lost in her own world, she is very much in our world, she apparently can only think of 4 things at the same time.

When she tells you that she says she is thinking about

Ice-cream flavoured ice-cream, the middle toe, the second floor girls bathroom... and I forgot the last thing. I forgot it, Rin didn't.

Oh yeah, I forgot 'bout that.

That raises another question. What is his physical problem, if this is a school for physical disabilities in specific?

His eyesight for one. But I don't know what else.

Rin was going shopping, but the thing slipped from her mind.


Well, we shall see exactly what mental state Rin's mind is in when the full game is released, I presume. I will continue with Rin's route but I doubt my position on the matter will be changed since I've known people and character's with this sort of mysteriously odd aura and no mental deficiency was attributed as to being a cause.

And Kenji...is legally blind...

Ah yes. But how do we know that he does not have some other disability, as well? Hasteroth and I know someone who is legally blind in the same way, and yet can still stay in the same school system. But he's a narutard, so very obviously he doesn't matter to anybody.

Lilly's only disability is being blind and yet she's there. Although I have suspected there might be more wrong with Kenji than stated...

It doesn't matter! My point is, that he could technically still go to a normal school! Perhaps they sent him there because of his paranoia.

And thus, said person's existence has been officially refuted...
On a more serious note, there is a whole class just for the blind and partially blind. Whilst yes, there may be more that is wrong with them, but for the most part that seems to be their main disability.

No I figured out who Jadecavy was talking about, he's in my drama class, was wearing a Naruto Mist Wristband today.

Kenji never actually goes to school so who knows what class he's in.
