Actually if I had to hypothesize, maybe at first he totally abused Inga's hax question ability to solve mysteries at first and slowly developed his intuition over the past 2 years.

FYI, the theater I went to only had about 40-50 people in it (1/4-1/6th full), even though it was the 9 PM showing on Saturday night (opening day). I went to see it in one of the theaters that was probably the least popular (Fuchu city), although it's only playing on night showings (7:30 PM+), and only at 10 theaters or so total in the entire country, and only for 2 weeks. Note that even though it was 50 minutes the ticket cost the same as a normal movie late show (1200 yen).

Thanks again for the information, Quarkboy, and your theory's certainly a good one. And I agree with the people you talked to at the theater: the information in your summary changes a lot of how I interpret what's been happening in the story so far. "Is there only one truth?", indeed.

Lots of story development in this episode 6. This episode shows that although Kaishou is a well-respected individual, he is far from perfect; he even commits adultery. I'm very curious who the two people are at the end of the episode and whether they will play a significant role in the story.
5 episodes left. =( |

for something he didn't do, such as adultery. I hope it have more seasons later. |

The episode is very subtle about it but the three pieces of evidence are: #1) Shinjuurou says to Kaishou: "So you covered up the evidence of child abuse, and as a result, the children's lives were... the same way you covered up your own crime." The "your own crime" that Shinjuurou talks about is referring to Kaishou's adultery. There really is nothing else "the crime" can be referring to, except for adultery. #2) Kaishou's response to #1: "After people experience love a number of times, aside from realizing how boring it truly is, they realize they are really none the wiser. As a result, they become unable to live without love." If Kaishou had not commit the "crime" that Shinjuurou talked about. Kaishou could have defended himself. But he didn't. Also, notice that Kaishou's response to Shinjuurou's comment is related "love." If Shinjuurou was talking about a crime that is not adultery, then it would make no sense for Kaishou to suddenly bring up the subject of love. Deductively, the love that Kaishou talks about and the "crime" that Shinjuurou talks about are the same thing. It is adultery. Had Kaishou and Takako not commit adultery, there also would be no reason for Kaishou to respond to Shinjuurou the way he did in #2. "They become unable to live without love" is likely a confession of how weak he and Takako were when they committed adultery together. #3) Yajima Takako is sleeping on a different side. This is self-explanatory. If Takako hadn't been sleeping with Kaishou or some other guy, she wouldn't suddenly sleep on the other side of the bed. |

Also, Shinjuurou's incomplete sentence: "as a result, the children's lives were..." => lost and buried? or something similar. At this point, Shinjuurou thought that the children were dead. IMHO, he assumed that Kaishou covered up their deaths to protect Takako (and Yajima's reputation). Quote:
As for Kaishou not defending himself. #1 As noted above, I don't think he and Shinjurou were referring to the supposed adultery. #2 Even if they had been, would you believe someone who simply tells you "No, I wasn't"? IMHO, the reveal of the kids, along with Kouyama's explanation, told Shinjuurou everything he needed to know about the situation. Quote:
====== As Kaishou says at the end: "Is there always one truth?" edit: Good heavens. What's the point of telling me that something 'doesn't make sense' anonymously if you're not even going to discuss it?

Ever heard of postmodernism? Anyway, I'm happy to wait til more is revealed. But I think your so-called 'evidence' that Kaishou was having an affair with Takako is rather thin as well, since you're basing it all on dialogue that isn't actually specific enough. === Oh, and about the "hanzai" (犯罪) vs. "tsumi" (罪) issue: my dictionary tells me that "hanzai" is basically what we'd call a "criminal offense" in the West. So unless "adultery" is a criminal offense in the Japan of UN-GO, I strongly contest your first piece of 'evidence' and half of what you said supports your second piece of 'evidence'.
