    383 KB Kino's Journey Anonymous 05/12/10(Wed)07:44 No.34709609  
    So, I just finished watching the series, and I have some questions. I'll put them in spoiler tags for ease
    1. We know that Kino is female once named Sakura. But how old is she?
    2. Kino looks grown up. Does she have any sexual/romantic desires/preferences? Is she straight, gay, bisexual, asexual?
    3. If she does, how does she satisfy them? "3 days rule" making relationships unavailable, does she resort to paying for sex? Or she uses Hermes's vibrating parts? Or just masturbates without aid? Or just abstains?
    4. What was that about girl reading adventure books through machine in a destroyed world?
    5. I heard it's based on LN. Was they ever translated?

    It was a good translation but like you said the out of order crap made japan very mad.

    >WHAT THE FUCK NO FANSERVICE IN THIS SHOW?
    >I must derive some kind of hidden sexual innuendos from this show, help me /a/!

    Seriously, why did you even watch this show in the first place?

    You know... I just randomly had a strange mental image of Kino and Horo teaming up to travel to the North.

    You misunderstood me, it seems. I like this series for what it is. I want to know more about it. Even the parts people usually brush aside. So question on Kino's sexuality is a valid one, seeing how sex exists in the series: people marry and have kids.

    If you don't have sexual thoughts about Kino you are probably a gay. I recommend consulting a doctor.

    In response to the OP's question about Kino's sexuality, it's made me wonder if she ever ended up in a country that's very much about sex and sex oriented traditions and even possibly participated in them.
    But a helpful anon pointed that she would probably avoid such countries or simply not partake in the traditions. Plus, sexual encounters can create attachment, whether we want to or not, and Kino does look she might worry that she would be the kind to get attached, thus, she remains a virgin.

    Also, she's got the powerful vibrations of Hermes' motor going between her legs all the time, you think she NEEDS anyone else?

    4. What was that about girl reading adventure books through machine in a destroyed world?

    The person who was telling Kino that was an escaped crazy. Guy was trying to mess with Kino's perception of reality.

    Or maybe he was trying to wake her up? It's up to the viewer to decide.

    Kino no Tabi movie 2. Country of Illness or something like that. It also has a much higher animation budget than the show and the first movie as it seems.

    Oops never mind. Wrong girl in a hospital and the damn board won't let me delete.

    Yeah.
    1. Young adult. We know nothing specific, and it's probably for the best.
    2. Sexual preferences never really came up. There was the mad Prince's son, which she seemed to flirt with a bit, but I think she just values her freedom as a traveller more than anything else.
    3. I'd be Kino just played with herself, like any other person. Sex builds attachment, which Kino seems to avoid.
    4.That was from an episode I personaly discount. Lad of the Books was weird, man. Some folks say that Kino is actually that little girl; I personally dismiss the whole shebang as the writers running out of ideas
    5. Only part of the novels got an offical release, but I *think* batatsuki has the somewhere: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Kino's_Journey_light_novels

    1- Sakura you say ?
    Where did you found that? the name can be used for an insult as showed in an episode when we see her true self before encountering the traveler Kino but is not pronounced.

    I found something different BTW.

    She said her name is a type of flower and it rhymes with "blind" which is "makura" in japanese

    Why are the kino doujins out so shitty/
    >> Anonymous 05/12/10(Wed)08:42 No.34710802
    So, the consensus would be that no hints about Kino's sexuality are given in canon, and she's celibate in conduct to boot?

    Female 13 year olds generally dont know much about sex.

    Is there more anime of this type of storytelling? the only thing next to it is Mushishi.
