The novel itself did this much better, so I suggest giving that a read. On another note, Shin, the explaination for Touko's 'uselessness', really, is that she can't use magic. This was twisted in Kara no Kyoukai, as seen in her different appearance of the red hair, and it is displayed in a manner that makes us think she can use magic. Though...quite frankly, it's impossible, because she has no Circuits. ANYWHO, boring crap out of the way: Touko can't use magic. kthnxbai. 8D<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('6145','Kaito'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('6145','Kaito','Well, overall, good movie, though I think it could be better in terms of content and context.\r\nThe novel itself did this much better, so I suggest giving that a read.\r\n\r\nOn another note, Shin, the explaination for Touko\'s \'uselessness\', really, is that she can\'t use magic.\r\nThis was twisted in Kara no Kyoukai, as seen in her different appearance of the red hair, and it is displayed in a manner that makes us think she can use magic.\r\nThough...quite frankly, it\'s impossible, because she has no Circuits.\r\nANYWHO, boring crap out of the way:\r\nTouko can\'t use magic.\r\nkthnxbai.\r\n8D'); return false;">Quote</a></div> Well, overall, good movie, though I think it could be better in terms of content and context.

Watch it.

@beanbrew, jenn

It makes more sense now I guess, since I always thought it was a Jekyll/Hyde kind of thing, where one wouldn’t be aware of the other’s actions and experiences.

@piro

What can’t she cut?

@Aoshi

Sounds about right.

@Lehq

I still preferred Movie 1’s fight scene; Somehow, fighting a mindless zombie didn’t really impress, though I like how she cut those lines with only her finger(subsequently breaking it too)

@Hyn

What Cat Megex said. :lol: Though I wonder if there’s more to it than just the resemblance?

@BigN

Is he anyway as cool as Kotomine? :P

@Cat Megex

Ah, didn’t know that. Just dug up that bit on Araya on the Type Moon wiki, and I even heard rumors of Touko and Araya Show ▼

Shin: I don't know if it's in the movies or not, but in one of the earlier chapters of Kara no Kyoukai (before chapter 4, at least), Touko gives some business cards to either Shiki or Kokutou (can't remember which) and, I think, says that they were made by Araya Souren, one of her associates.

And the photo shot of Shiki (is it Shiki?) on the chair looks sexy yet dangerous. Stunning. :eek:

I think it could be more a case of multiple personality (or Dissociative Identity Disorder) rather than split personality (“The term “split personality,” denoting schizophrenia, refers to an unrelated disorder in which the split (separation) is between thought and feeling.” –> but some people defined it as another way of saying MPD, so they stopped using it after a while cos they might have gotten confused. XD). ._. The very fact they are ’split’ allows for different experiences — and this is often a coping mechanism. Or so the two books I’d read about the topic said…
