Then again fictional scenarios can have younger/unusual circumstances, and fortunately an adult looking young is not particularly extreme. And yes they likely do look at least 5 - 6 years older than Nagisa herself which was why in an earlier episode (or early in the game), Tomoya was like is this lady (referring to Sanae) Nagisa's sister? or mother? Of course because of parental age differences with their children, aside from more extreme circumstances, you can assume they're at least 30s (like mid 30s or greater). The actual number isn't disclosed (though for most characters, it isn't. Since you have character identification as either some grade level student or an adult, you have a good enough age range to guess.) Sushi, thanks very much for the Another Story information. Makes me want to purchase one and see the contents, if I could ever read it that is. |

I'm glad I'm Asian...
But actually it's KEY's tradition to have mothers hotter than their daughter, yup. Also it is because Akkio and Sanae got married at a young age as well, which is quite uncommon in modern days. Nowadays people don't get married until their 20s. |

I don't understand ig. Akiko's jam is lethal all right, but apart from 'not good', how is Sanae's bread dangerous at all? Aren't you people exaggerating it too much?
P.S. My brother is cross-dressing and will be walking around in Bayswater, London this afternoon from 3pm to 4pm as punishment. If you are in UK, try look for him! Reward given if you can find us. Last edited by iamandragon; 2007-12-07 at 05:08. |

I thought Akiko's Jam and Sanae's Bread was formatted so that you would feel horribly sick when eating it.
Note it's not the bread with rice crackers in it, but rather that rainbow bread. So yes, it would have to be the "special" bread, being the one that's rainbow coloured. (Don't forget, in a sense Akiko does have normal jams, but there's one secret recipe one, and that one is lethal. So actually, technically Sanae does have an equivalent, it just hasn't been used yet, but clearly implied, but not actually used.) |

Apparently, Tomoya and Kyou were in the same class in their 2nd year (they are currently 3rd years/Seniors) and have been friends. Good enough friends that Kyou trusts Tomoya enough to let him know about her bike. It's probably just Tomoya's style to refer to girls like that. He has absolutely no right to refer to Tomoyo (whom he just met and isn't really even friends with) by her first name with no honorific, yet he does and Tomoyo herself apparently doesn't mind. The notable exception of Nagisa is probably due to the fact that she is Tomoya's love interest if the anime follows the game at all.

Pandering over how close Tomoya is to each girl is pretty pointless in this situation. Realistically, Tomoya shouldn't be referring to any of them by first name with no honorific. It is by far the most intimate level of communication. A situation where this is appropriately used is between sisters in Minami-ke, who refer to each other like this (as "Chiaki" and "Kana").
