So Battler-Touya was out at sea for years huh? Well, I'll just assume he landed and was discovered later. The hell was Battler-Touya doing for those years? Anyway, if he met Ikuko that much later then Ikuko=Yasu is pretty strong.

I don't think Beatrice jumping from the boat is a literal suicide by Yasu. As I've said before, and the interview mentions this also, Beatrice is the Witch of Rokkenjima. She can't leave the island.

I'm even wondering if the whole love story was actually resolved much later than 1986 in a kind of strange back and forth between Touya's and Ikuko's respective memories and writing.
