Myself; Yourself - Episode 10 Discussion / Poll

Spoiler for episode 11 preview:

So, who's the confession gonna be between you think?

[dojikyo]

Don't know about that. But Asami must have her borrowed fashion tips from Shuffle's Ama.

Overall, this episode turned out a lot better. Focused on the twins while still advancing/concluding the twin hills storyline without two many distractions.

I believe it isn't the type of confession most people are thinking of.

Spoiler for speculation about episode 11:

It sounded like the confession would come from the sister. The way she sounded in the preview, it seems like she is finally ready to confess to Shou, and she blames it on Shou kindness.

Btw, I've a feeling I'm not spelling Shou's name correct, but I also refuse to spell his name "shoe."

Shuusuke, or just Shuu is fine.

[arkxkra]

oh man, Sana cant stand of blood, cant wait to know what have happen between them.

This episode the twin was so close, and their family was s***, wish both of them good luck. 3 more episode, i wonder enough time to talk everything or not.

Next episode was a good title. Im thinking who confess to who now ...

[MUAHAHAHAHAHA]

I worry the most about Shuri and Shuusuke's ending.Will there be a bright future for them?Somehow,i dont really care about Sana or his fear of blood anymore.Some of my friends think that the twins harbour romantic feelings for one another which means incest.But i dont think do though.I think a lot of things are going to happen in the next 3 episode.Well,at least i can shove aside Aoi.

Spoiler for let's see:

According to the preview, the more likely guesses are :

-Asami will confess her love to Shuusuke
-Asami will confess her love to Shuri
-Asami will confess that she sent the letter to the world

^ These 3 are quite possible (しかし突然あさみが、朱里と二人だけで話がしたいと言い出す)

-Shuusuke confesses to the world that Shuri and he are not blood-related
-Sana confesses his love to Shuusuke on accident

^ 一方、病院の中庭で、佐菜から菜々香への想いを聞いた修輔は･･･。

Or maybe Shuusuke will just follow Sana's example and confess to Shuuri

[serenade_beta]

Spoiler for episode 11 preview summary:

Sana visits the hospitalized Asami at the hospital, but he finds out something unexpected there.

Shuri and Shuusuke also come visit and peaceful time passes.

But suddenly, Asami says that she wants to talk to Shuri alone.

Meanwhile, in the hospital courtyard, Shuusuke hears from Sana about his feelings towards Nanaka and...

Spoiler for thoughts:

-___- ........ For some reason, this preview could be amusingly twisted...
Like:
"unexpected" = Sana finding out Asami is secretly dating Shuri... -_-
"alone" = -_-
"Shuusuke" = ...and decides to kill Sana for being able to save Nanaka whom he couldn't -_-

Anyways, possibly some development on Asami, which is good and finally.
Twins plot continues, of course.
I hope they tell us what happened to Kaji. Like if she went to the madhouse.

[Deathkillz]

Spoiler:

"Sana visits the hospitalized Asami at the hospital, but he finds out something unexpected there."

oh yes...asama turns out to be yuri

"But suddenly, Asami says that she wants to talk to Shuri alone."

girl talk huh...the theory of shuri's step mother being asami's mother could still hold true - might get some fireworks here ^^

(would seriously lol if asami turned yandere )

"Meanwhile, in the hospital courtyard, Shuusuke hears from Sana about his feelings towards Nanaka and... "

jealous? shuu doesnt like nanaka from the game "spoilers" but maybe the anime will take a different lead. i dont see how he could have a thing for her but you never know - plot holes are every where to be found

[tun]

Blasphemy. Shuusuke would never be unfaithful to Shuri.

[Kristen]

Why do they change blood to black? It's unnatural, and I think it looks creepier than red. If you're going to have violence, do it right. Higurashi did it right, why can't you?

I was not expecting this at all. I am one of those "This is the opposite of school days" people, but that bloody scene definately brough back BAD memories. However, I am really liking the Shuri-Shuuske arc, and like where it is going. I think the Vice Principle is a friend of Shuri's father, and sent that letter to drive out Shuri from the country.
I really hope Shuri's father gets indited for child abuse charges.

Overall: 7/10. It was a good episode, but I do not want to be reminded of school days.

You don't know the power that a flood of RED blood has.

[GoldAlchemist]

This show is getting darker with each passing episode. I began to wonder how the fates of the protagonists would end. Since, according to wikipedia, it's only scheduled for 13 episodes, i hope they won't rush to rap everything up in the final few episodes.

You're kidding me, right? You did not down-rate this episode just because they have made a move towards the "let's use black blood because we care about not making our viewers kill people in real life" action. I've seen worse reasons for down-rating an episode, but not much worse. And it's only your foolish assumption that causes the black blood to remind you of School Days. School Days is not the only other anime to use black blood. And how did Higurashi do it "better"? Animated blood is animated blood.

To be frank i don't see what the big deal is with blood. When people get cut they bleed! And when blood leaves the body it's red! IMO mainstream TV media is turning into a giant pussy. Every thing has to be all chocolate and rainbows to children. All this does is that when children that are too shielded (not just from TV but helicopter parents) grow up and face the real world the difference is too great and they get a mini culture shock, get overwhelmed and turn emo. Gross generalisation I know but you get the idea.

[SeedFreedom]

*Science hour!*
Blood is in actuality dark when in the human body. It gets the characteristic red color from the oxygen in the air. If it was a larger pool of blood it would take much longer to redden in color. However it still shouldn't be black it it was only added for censorship. Sorry, but being the science geek I am I had to say that

That being said, i still havent seen the episodes, but i did read the spoilers

Spoiler:

wow, it really hit the fan this episode. We're moving very fast and could conclude the Shuu/Shuri arc by next week, but i really hope not because, even if it is twincest, they are one of the best couples that ive seen for a long while.

The way i see it the end of this anime can go three ways. two disappointing

Ending 1. Nothing is revealed. They leave all the best parts out for the very end and leave us in a cliffhanger to make us buy the game

Ending 2. sallow ending. They've dropped hints as to the mysteries of this anime, such as who started the fire, secret behind Sana's watch, and who set up the twins. The sallow ending basically ends with almost all initial and obvious conclusions being right. not a truly bad ending, but the writing so far shows so much more potential that that

Ending 3. Tons of twist. Lots of secrets revealed and bring small, commonly mised hints and combined with good writing could make us doubt everything we thought we knew about the characters. This ending is the best, because it's honestly more exciting. E.g. Hoshino ends up plotting most/all of the misshappenings turning her character from side character to main character.

I understand your point and certainly agree with you, but we have things as bad as kids seriously hurting and even killing others because they saw bloodless violence on TV. Seeing bloody violence certainly wouldn't help. A couple years back, some teens beat a toddler to death (I kid you not, can't remember the details though) because they saw grown-ups beating each other up on TV. It's not like we can just ignore this.
