Myself; Yourself - Episode 4 Discussion / Poll

I am surprised that VA can sound that different between different characters. O_O

Or maybe I am just not good with recognizing voices.

It would be nice too if they could change the violin music to something less irritating. Even a beginner wouldn't play "that" badly, or maybe the music piece itself is really this terrible.

Shuu getting it in the groin...OUCH! As another guy, i can understand his pain
Sillt hoping for some Nanaka and Sana as we barely even got any Nanaka in this episode

Being stepped in the groin is small potato compares to Higurashi's nail removal.

Bleh if Shuu was a real man, he would realise that his sister just wants him to evolve like Nagasumi. I bet she is a big fan of the show

Dont ever underestimate being sacked/hit in the groin. As the numbness feeling is terrible, i dont want to go in any details

But when you compare it to Higurashi, i guess i cant say anything, because you just cant get any worse

ive always been able to recognize Yukari Tamura's voices as its got that low and creepy feel to it, kinda hard to describe though

[Midonin]

It's become very clear. Shuri's foot packs as much power as Nanaka's fist. Speaking as a male - really, that hurts.

Well it really depends on where they hit and Shuri certainly hit the right spot... The groin is a man's worst weakness...

Reminds of a scene in Tenjou tenge

Spoiler for Tenjou Tenge:

Where Bob said, " There is a place for a man that even a guy that can take on 70 people can't train for (hint groin area)"

[grey_moon]

I'm sure there is a Sholin Iron Ball style buried in the mists of time. Probably didn't get passed on as the training was too harsh for the family jewels which meant there was no successor.

To back my theory of Shuu X Sana, I recon that the train scene was Shuu shouting his confession at Sana

[DanielSong39]

I smell siscon...

Considering Shuu is a second male protagonist, how much would you like to bet that Shuri is his non-blood related sister?

[NoSanninWa]

Take a look at the two of them next to each other. They're practically identical. No chance of being not blood related.

I would be pretty upset if something like that occurred.
Brother and sister start to have feelings for each other. They become confused by this. Awkwardness abound for several episodes. In the end they accept their forbidden love. Then comes the obligatory speech from their parents. "OH yeA Btw! one of yOu is aDopTed LOLZ!"
Now I'm not a supporter of twincest, but this idea is ridiculously cheap to the plot and incredibly overused.

[holyman282]

I think it's been said that they are twins, it would of been possible if we didn't hear that, but considering with know they are fraternal twins then i doubt they aren't related..

[CrisisDarkerXIV]

By the way, does anybody have any guesses about Sana's mother?
My guess is:

Spoiler for theory:

She had something to do with Sana's secret under the watch. Of course, I could be wrong saying that there is something under the watch. Some people, if not most, are saying that Sana probably tried committing suicide, and that he is trying to hide the scar.

Another clue about the suicide theory is the bloody blade used by Hoshino in episode 3. Could be hemophobia, or something connected with a razor or something.

At the end of each episode, he sounds pretty tired and distant from his own mother. Could it be guilt or consequence of his mother's actions?

Of course these are all guesses.

Seems regarding your 2nd clue that would only give me an idea that

Spoiler for Summary Spoiler Speculation:

during his childhood days after leaving the town, he had an accident that makes him see blood all over the place. His left arm is injured probably the reason why he only use his right hand to play the same melody that Nanaka played for him during his birthday. After the surgery it leaves a scar that makes him remember it everyday so his mother bought him a big watch to conceal that scar up until now. Well hemophobia might be the reason aside from the scar on his wrist.

Or they could go down the road of Boku wa Imouto ni Koi wo suru.

Spoiler for Boku wa Imouto ni Koi wo suru manga:

And make the mother fuck 2 guys in 24 hours and make them half siblings. Like that makes everything ok all of the sudden...

But yeah the chances of them not being brother and sister considering the looks is close to none, but them being cousins... You know that is considered normal in Japan...So yah. I support the twincest thing though. =o

First of all, that is very disturbing and secondly I hope not, by making them cousins all of a sudden would definitely feel forced and basically acts as a lame plot device to hook them up..

LMAO could you imagin Aoi's face if she walked in on that? We dont have imagin her voice we hear that every week

[CodySilver]

Well, I am pretty sure that Shuu and Shuri will end this series together as a couple... I think they are simblings and we are going to watch some siscon there.

[SeedFreedom]

Two things really disturbed me in this ep. one was the extremely large amounts of pedophilia from both Shuu and Sana. Especially Sana. Second, why the hell did Shuu look over at his sister every time Sana asked about his dream girl. no incest please...

Other than that tons of laugh but get back to the story already!!!!

Let's not be silly. Neither of them showed interest at all, in that little girl, either romatically or sexually. They were just being nice to her.

Exactly!

[jowney]

LOOL kool episode cnt wait for the next one >,<!

[Sinestra]

oh here we go the brother x sister love jokes. even though it might not be so much a joke even i found it weird he kept looking at his sister. oh well what happens happens. But Shuri does not have the *cough* assests that Shuu is looking for.
