倫理委員会も、教育委員会も、男女の交際に対しては、きわめて厳格だった。そのため、わたした ちの年齢では 、異性に対する思いは抑圧され、プラトニックに限定された。 その一方、男の子同士、女の子同士の場合であれば、度を超した親密さも大目にみられる雰囲気が あったために 、小数の例外を除くほとんど全員が、同性を、とりあえずの恋愛と性の対象にしていたはずだ。 |

I think there are several other and much more plausible reasons behind the kids' survival. For one, I don't think the society "wants" to get rid of their children. As long as they aren't very weak or very unstable, I think they want to keep the kids around. Why would they kill off these strong kids who not only survived a dangerous adventure but were also resourceful enough to get their cantus back when they're eventually going to be let in the secret as adults anyway? There is no reason to get rid of them. Not when they have proven themselves to have the mental aptitude to stay strong and resourceful. For another, it could just be that the society can't really get rid of them as long as they were with humans. There is that whole death feedback deal. Satoru was right when he said they were most endangered when they were outside the village with the BakeNezumi. They are most safe right in the village. The adults could send a cat to hunt them etc. but that is probably not worth it unless it's an extreme case. With Shun, the guy was a genius. His teacher clearly regretted his fate until the very end. A society that is so dependent on power to survive would be dumb to get rid of it's prodigies until it's just impossible to survive without getting rid of them. Saki has proven to be very resourceful and to have great mental fortitude. If the preview is anything to go by ("you're the only one who can do this") then the village is rather impressed with her if anything. Why would they get rid of Mamoru so long as he believes their stuff? They have ample time to slowly convert him. A pacified populace is ideal to rule with an iron fist with select emotionally strong leaders. Mamoru is more or less an ideal kid to brainwash and turn into a normal citizen for this world.

It's not made very obvious, but it's suggested that Satoru is weirded out by the entire situation. It takes Saki's question about why he liked Ryou to make him realize why, but he doesn't understand why he has memories of feeling so strongly for someone to whom he feels no connection whatsoever. |

When I saw Satoru's eyes, in them there was displayed what I can only make out to have been genuine bafflement (pure incomprehensibility)... It was the eyes of a person who was seeing the existence of something he could not in any way comprehend. Best I could make of it.

What was going through Satoru's brain when he was passing by Ryou and Saki down the stairs? Is there a play-by-play on what is happening in his thoughts? because the anime only gave a snap-shot scene of Satoru oddly looking at Saki and Ryou. --- (Sorry. It sometimes take me time to process information, and I really want to understand the anime/franchise, so please bear with me. Thanks. ^^; ) Quote:

actually, they laugh and point fun at it and other deviant behavior all the time... most people outside of Japan really wouldn't know, as they just don't talk about stuff like that, so yeah definitely for the shock value, otherwise, they wouldn't have skipped over it. laughing at something is not accepting it |

Every nightmare that Saki has lived through is converging to be taking shape in the next episode.
For this one the writers linked back the unresolved plots that this show clearly made aware its audience to take note and save them. - Reiko's getting spirited away from episode one. - The school's tournament from episode two. - The summer camp trip from before the time-skip in episode four. - The aftermath of what they did that summer from before the time-skip in episode seven. This is going to culminate with Saki and friends formally meeting with the secret chairman of the Committe of Ethics, Asahina Tomiko, Satoru's grandma. Ok. Let's review what's the fearsome deal about the village's system: Spoiler:
The result is .... Spoiler:
