So I'm Transporting a thread I made on Ayeka.net on here so I could hear opinions from the people that are only here. After rewatching episode 20, I'm getting the feeling that noike IS kagato, female kagato anyway. Here washu is explaining that kagato/noike "transformed into a baby" then the person who she "thinks is her mother" found her, and used her to look good for a man. She even says that Kagato split her personalities into two, I guess resulting into noike and kagato(female). Man this is confusing, but here are pics from what I"m talking about....
Its in order by the way so just read on down.....




ANB, or somebody, PLEASE TELL ME WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!?! lol

Sounds plausible to me.

sounds about right, and it makes sense if you check out the storyboard pics at http://www.astronerdboy.com/tenchi/Arti ... uture.html
Misaki recognized the girl as Noike

It's certainly possible, but the details leave a lot unexplained (like this is nothing new? lol) I'm pretty sure the split refers only to their astral forms, so indeed chibi Kagato and Noike could have the same physical body. The way I've understood it is that Noike is like a "lens" through which Kagato can see and interact with the physical world.

This is the problem with the Kajishima-sensei information dump. ^_^;;; Even in an info dump, he still subscribes to the Law of Conservation of Details. I remember Mato and I discussing this a great deal because he wanted to be absolutely sure to get this part right since it is so confusing. I think he did a great job trying to get it right and understandable within the bounds of the script.

she is everything evil - and a buzzkiller to boot.
