Hanyuu is so cute it hurts im not surprised they had to tie Rena up eventually. THings are moving pretty fast and even if Rika only used the manga excuse to get ideas her friends are still united behind her and Hanyuu i think with her as an additon to the group they will be even stronger. Im looking forward to the show down and if Keiichi plays a large role again which im sure he will. We all suspected it but this is the last time around this is their last chance to get it right.

Boku: masculine "I". (Keiichi uses "ore", which is informal, Rena uses her own first name (not incorrect, but not really common) while Mion uses "oji-san" ^^)
the usual "ko" is added at the end of a word to refers to a girl (or sometimes, to turn a character into female, like archerko) in fact, it is because of hanyuu that Rika uses "Boku".

Yeah but Ayu's really weird. Still, "boku" has become more common among girls in the past decade, perhaps influenced by fictional girls who use "boku" to announce their unconventionality. Using "boku" would have been very strange for a girl in 1983 who wasn't boyish as I understand it. Of course perhaps Hanyuu uses "boku" because as Oyashiro-sama, she is thought to be male.

I think Davidj has it, but it's hard to tell for sure. Whatever, nobody's going to question a goddess' speech habits |

Nope. AFAIK, for "big entities" royalties etc, such character uses "we" (ware) or some very archaic "I" (like Watakushi)
As for Hanyuu, Davidj probably pointed the correct answer: supposed to be a god (she says Kami, so god. Not Megami which is goddess), and so: Male.

Ware,waga and the such is more like mafia, big-corporation like. The pronoun normally used by royalty is "yo", and if you want to get your arrogance across ore is more appropiate, however all of these are male-oriented. Watashi can be used by female's in most situations, with Watakushi being used in the more formal ones ones. It is more difficult for a female to get arrogance across and still remain formal, however using Watashi and forgoing keigo (formal speech) in a formal ocassion can do the trick. A female using "boku" is just tomboyish. However there is a recent trend in otaku culture for females using boku and somehow being cute. I don't understand the specifics, but I've heard many of Mizuki Nana's recent songs with that idea. BTW the reason of Rika using boku is precisely because she copied Hanyuu's speech. There is a TIP that deals with this specifically IIRC: |
