awesome episode that left me wanting more but it also confused me alot
Is this another story completely that just uses the same characters? or did it just go back in time and is telling another story that co exists with the first story? or is it something completely different lol |

Spoiler for ep 5:
Can anyone clarify for me the relationship between Hinamizawa, Okinomiya, and Shishibone City? Doesn't seem important really, but I thought it might help me understand the area of influence the Sonozaki family have. Thanks. Last edited by kj1980; 2006-05-07 at 11:57. |

So within Shishibone City, you have two sub-divisions: Okinomiya - a town Hinamizawa - a village |

As for the whole Shion/Mion relationship thing, there's a lot more to it than meets the eye. One thing's for certain, Meakashi (Watanagashi's "answer" chapter) will definitely bring a lot of surprises for most people. Also, some people above were asking why certain events that happened in this episode (Watanagashi-hen) didn't happen in Onikakushi-hen (for example, why wasn't Shion introduced in Onikakushi-hen?). I can only give out one hint: When you replay a stage in, say, a shooting game, you never get exactly the same developments or results every time, right? This is the same thing. Quote:

Is it just me or...
Spoiler for Episode 5 + stuff from 4(theory):
Suddenly becoming a big fan of Shion with a growing like of Mion. She may not have quite the psycho charm of Rena, but something must be loose in the head if she can laugh during that opening scene... |

EDIT: So let me get this straight: Kei and gang going to the shop to play cards in episode 5 happened because a different route was taken in the story? Or could this have occured in Onikakushi-hen, but we didn't see it? |

I watched it in the morning instead of 11pm, since I didn’t want to be awake at night thinking about the show->I like my sleep. Even the first scene with Rika was not as disturbing as I thought it would be.
I gave episode five a 9, I would have given a 10 if they gave me more Shion and Mion screen time. I enjoy how the dynamics are playing out between the sisters and Keiichi. I feel joy for him (i.e. “Lucky dude, you got cute girls who like you.”) and anguish (i.e. “Bummer dude, you got girls with skeletons is their closets”) at the same time. Otherwise, I enjoyed the mostly light-hearted slice-of-life break from what went on in ep.3-4. Spoiler for US Presisdent:

1. Mion's shocked reactions whenever she sees Shion 2. Shion's reason for not living together with Mion 3. Shion's familiar attitude towards Keiichi right from the beginning 4. Shion's attitude/personality in general 5. The reason why nobody has ever head of Shion before 6. The reason for that sorrowful look Shion had on her face just before the break in this episode 7. The reason for Mion's depression 8... Actually, you know what? I'm sure all the questions raised in this thread will be explained eventually + answers to things you probably never even thought about. Watanagashi-hen is very rich in contents (much more so than Onikakushi), and the mystery will only get deeper and deeper. It's probably one of the most involved chapters in the game (much more than it appears to be). Your best bet is to focus on the Sonozaki twins, and gather as much as you can about their personalities and their circumstances (as much as you can tell) from within this chapter. Hopefully the anime doesn't cut out TOO much from the game, or else things might start getting... hard to figure out. Remember those general tips: 1. Don't believe everything you see, and 2. What you have learned about a character's personality applies across ALL chapters (hint: this works both ways, something you know from a previous chapter may help you determine something in this chapter. Similarly, something you newly learned in this chapter may help you determine something from a past chapter as well) Quote:
Spoiler for off topic about Rena's fighting skill:

As far as I know, it's a model gun, not real. That and models guns are one of Mion's hobbies (and no, I don't think that has any significance either). Edit: ah kj beat me to it. Last edited by Sushi-Y; 2006-05-08 at 00:35. |
