Yes, the disappearance arc makes many people sad including me. But I think the novel shows huge character development for Yuki as well as Kyon. That novel make me fall in love with Yuki (in fanboy/girl sense)more .Anybody, dont misunderstood Now the alt!Yuki pic make me SQUEE!!! Cant decide which one is better though. the alt one or the normal one. both has their awesomeness

Spoiler for Snowy Mountain Syndrome:
Question here: If she's cut off from the DITE, is Yuki still considered to be an alien? I have a love/hate relationship with Kyon; love him because he's the narrator and his sarcasm is just too funny, and hate him because, well, because I'm a bigger Yuki fan than a Kyon fan. I am not a kyonxyuki shipper but I still like alt!Universe more than 'real'!Universe, because at least there, Yuki has made a stand for herself. I think that says a lot for her, whose original programming was just to 'observe'. Disappearance is a huge step forward for most of the characters in terms of character development, and I think it's logical they chose it to be made into a movie. Oh, and personally, I feel emotionless Yuki is the cutest (her expression nearly never changes), and that alt!Yuki sometimes scare me. But I haven't seen the movie and her blushing furiously, so I might change my mind when I see that |

If Yuki wasn't giving them a clue, the question turns to how much involvement Itsuki had to do with the incident, since he single-handedly walked Kyon through engineering their escape based solely upon Yuki's "clue".

Of course, one could argue that he did that as it rhymes with Kyon's name, making the entire plot even more Kyon-centred, as it has always been. |

If you can shuffle Mikuru off for a little while, I'll join you?
Probably as close as she gets to relief and/or rejoicing at seeing two of her friends again after 3 years 'away'. Assuming she didn't undo her synchronization once she put them to bed, anyway. |

I wonder how she feels whenever she synchronizes. It's like having the whole whole world crashing down on you at once, and then you KNOW that you will forget everything yet in a sense, you won't know about it.
Hmmm, that's confusing. |

I've always been under the impression that due to the lingering knowledge from the synchronization Yuki knows everything that's going to happen between the day Kyon and Mikuru(small) show up on her doorstep and the day North High student Yuki gives Kyon the tanzaku. She lives through that time and changes absolutely nothing about what she did before (or more accurately does the things she's always done, since there never was a "before"), since to do otherwise would cause..."noise". In short, for those three years, she's just like Dr. Manhattan—well, moreso than normal. Why would she ever want to forget information, after all? That's what she was created for. As a mind screw side effect, all that gradual emotional and character development that Kyon picks up in the novels to that point? It all occurred at once on the night of Tanabata three years ago (before his own "first meeting" with her), only Yuki supressed it so she would appear to be gradually opening up. ^_^

She would have to be a very good actress to pull everything off, which shouldn't be a tough thing given her poker face. However, I feel that if that's the case, she denied herself some information while withholding others. In any case, the DITE and the Human Interfaces are hard to figure out, given their abilities. She was created to observe and gather information, yes, but certain things are better left forgotten until confronted. If she actually remembers everything, that makes the creation of the Disappearance world even more messed up. |

You're thinking like a human. Yuki has the ability to "re"do exactly what she knows she should be doing without any real impetus to change it. She did live through every iteration of Endless Eight without so much as a peep to the others without provocation. I think that had more of an effect on her (and was more of a cause for Disappearance) than the BLR synchronization, as in the case of BLR, she only lived through three years once, but with full knowledge of what would occur. In the case of Endless Eight, she lived through everyu one of those two week iterations.

As for the synchronization, I imagine it to be like a system restore (or pre-store) where the data becomes the same. Yuki attempts to synchronize with her variant on December 18th, but is unable to do so. We don't get to see if she does synch or not before that event during the three years, but we do know she is unable to afterwards.

That's the nice thing about Yuki, though, from the perspective of pulling this off. Perfect edidic memory. She literally cannot forget, and precision is built into her from the ground up as a prerequisite for her duties. Unlike Mikuru, who literally can't perfectly recreate the actions she knows has to happen, Yuki can and does.
I agree that she probably doesn't dump the sync data afterwards though, what would be the point? And who's to say that she doesn't routinely synchronize every night with her past and future selves to make sure everything stays on track? Looking at it that way, the post Disappearance refusal to do this must be like losing a limb, to suddenly have no idea what lies ahead. |

It's giving me a headache just to figure out the order in which things happened Time-traveling is very complicated.

Was there any indication that after Disappearance, Yuki lost some of her powers due to the DITE? Can't really remember the novel now. |
