I don't think there's any contradiction. I only said that those facts I gave hint to something going on between them. It can simply mean that they know each other too well? I'll explain more below..TheBlind wrote: You have a contradiction here. Guess I'll start in order,
The thing is, I'm not trying to prove that GinXShiho is a "real" couple or anything; so I'm not saying that he loves her or is obsessed with her just because he imagined her naked. However, I'm sure that when Gosho drew that, he had a certain idea in his mind which he might be explaining later, or not.TheBlind wrote: Gin imagining Shiho naked - can be interpreted in many different ways so it's not a strong reason but in reality is the valid reason in the "ShihoxGin" argument. I think I posted a few of those explanations in a few similar topics around here.
It's true that Ai's hair-color is distinct, but I don't think it's evidence enough to suspect her be sure about her identity. Besides, the footprints around his car were those of children, so that means 2 young people were in there, yet he was sure about Shiho's presence just from one freaking single brown hair? I'm not convinced.TheBlind wrote: The hair- As cool as it would seem for Gin to be a magical hair detector he really used logic to assume it was Shiho's. Shiho has a distinct hair color, which means people in Japan with that same type of hair are already low. Two, there were footprints around his car which even surprised him, which must mean that it isn't normal for people to surround his car. Finally, a listening device was found in the car and to Gin, this all points to the escaped Shiho. You have to remember that Gin most likely searched his car because he found a hair strand that wasn't his or Vodka's, when he found the device is when he concluded that no doubt it was Shiho's hair.
The explainations you gave are satisfying enough, so that may be true. But I'm still wondering if he really was intending to kill her or just wanted to scare her off; knowing that the BO still needed her to complete APTX, killing her before she does would be just silly in my opinion.TheBlind wrote: Hesitation- I already covered this one but to add to it. Gin practically says it himself, he could of just killed Shiho in the chimney but that wouldn't of satisfied him. He wanted her to suffer for giving him a failure and he wanted to know the answer to the puzzle.
Yes, but she said that sentence to Ayumi right after imaginning Gin, which might be a reflexe she got at that very moment. Besides, I think the reason why she fears Gin that much is because he knows her moves too well, and so does she actually. The dude could even hear her breath inside the chimney! Ok, I admit he's got great detective skills but I still think that that and recognizing Shiho's hair is just too exaggerated; unless, as I said, he knows her moves too well, which leads to the probability that they know each other too well.TheBlind wrote: The Fear- This one is the one that bothers me the most. Seems like people always bring this one up but ignore something really basic. Shiho only exhibits this fear when a B.O. member or Gin specifically is around when she's with someone else. Even in her dream where she expressed this fear she was accompanied by the DBs. She doesn't show this fear when she's alone facing a B.O. member(Gin) as she showed on the rooftop. Reason for this is Shiho doesn't fear death, what she really fears is feeling the same pain of Akemi being killed. Akemi was all she had when she was Shiho and most likely the only thing she had attachment to and Gin took that away. So when she became Haibara she was cold towards the cast because she didn't want any attachments the B.O. could take away but they broke through her shell anyway. After this she contemplated of leaving because in her mind she failed and was setting herself up to be hurt again, which explains the nightmares where Gin takes everything from her again. It also explains the "Please don't touch me line". I told you before you where generalizing it, she wasn't thinking of Gin when she said it, she was directly referring to Ayumi. She wanted Ayumi to let go of her because she didn't want anything to do with her or any of them, she wanted to run away but they won her over again.
And of course Ai's not afraid of death. If she were, she wouldn't have stayed in that bus. She's afraid of the BO more than death, because dying would releave her, but if she lives and the BO finds her, they may somehow decide to punish her before instead of simlpy killing her. I think that's why she took APTX in the first place, she decided to kill herself before waiting for her punishment from AnoKata.
I like being silly from time to time.TheBlind wrote: The sentences on the roof- Now you are just being silly.. That was Gin being Gin and Shiho matching him with her being Shiho(extreme sarcasm, one of her best traits).
I think the sentences they shared on that roof were very poetic. lolGin: Isn't it pretty? White snow floating admist dark night.. letting blood color it all a crimson red.
Sherry: Maybe I should thank you for waiting for me in the cold breeze.
