With 4 episodes aired and various clues already laid, it's time to reconstruct the circumstances of the crime and discuss the possible theories behind the Dr. Magata's mysterious death. P.S. Please avoid spoiling the rest of the details for those who have already read the novel or watched the live drama. Here are all the various clues provided by the anime: - Dr. Magata has multiple personalities. So far 3 are known: Magata Shiki (the personality with a real body), Sasaki Suma (who "invited" her Uncle) and Kurimoto Kishio (who made Magata relax before her "first"). Nothing much to say here. - Moe uttered the word "purple" when she glared on Magata's dead body. - "Out of the numbers from 1 to 10, '7' is the only lonely number. So the only personality inside me with a motive to kill my parents is Magata Shiki. I am the only one that is 7..." ~quote from Dr. Magata during her interview with Moe. This obviously Moe quoting Dr. Magata or perhaps one or more of her personalities during their meeting, that is if the translation is correct. From what I can understand, including Dr. Magata Shiki there are 9 other personalities inside her - 10 in total. From another personality's perspective, the one who murdered her parents is '7'. It was perhaps the seventh personality i.e. Magata Shiki herself. It's also possible that the numbers assigned to the personalities weren't necessarily in chrononological order. In other words, that means that '7' aka Magata Shiki is the 'base personality'. One questions arises from me though. How come 'being lonely' can be a motive to kill? Why kill her parents from such trivial reason? Feeling lonely from being intellectually superior which led her to kill her parents? No. This reason is severely lacking. Smart/genius people do not murder people just because they feel alienated. There needs to be a 'push' somewhere. There's one possible answer to this question that came to my mind. Her parents found out their taboo relationship. Drastic measures have taken course which led her to feel 'lonely' (possibly from being apart with the Uncle who she had sex with) which eventually led her to kill her parents. Now this is a valid reason. And judging from the context of the quotation and who's talking to whom, it seems that Moe was talking to 'one of her other personalities' the whole time, not Dr. Magata herself. - A 'doll' killed Dr. Magata's parents. She testified that 'it' killed her parents. Already explained above. - Inside Dr. Magata's residence are: a sewing machine, a used drill with metal dust, metal plates with abrasions, a small television and a tribal head statue. - A table with 2 chairs inside the kitchen. - Her bedroom was locked by a robot called Michiru. It has the same voice as Dr. Magata and can only lock door but unable to open one. - Inside her bedroom are: toy blocks, a big teddy bear, and 3 deflated balloons. - The maracas, a mexican persussion instrument, used by the guard. Just wanted to point out that a Maracas is also used as toys for babies and toddlers. What does this signify? - The video feeds recording everything in front of the doorway to Dr. Magata's residence. - The "small portal" used to transfer necessities to Dr. Magata's residence. I forgot the exact volume that can possibly fit through but it was a enough to fit a whole microwave without putting it sideway. - The scene of the crime is bafflingly clean. No sign of blood marks, struggle or intrusion. The murder weapon is also missing. - The director was killed using a knife within a time proximity of 30 minutes. It was stabbed behind his neck. It was physically impossible from his position. It was also impossible to use a device or mechanism to stab his neck behind otherwise they would have already found it out when they examined his cadaver. Therefore, suicide can be ruled out and a killer definitely exist. Whether it's the same killer who killed Magata or not is highly debatable. - The Red Magic turning nuts when Magata's corpse was found.This is an important piece of clue. Definitely not a malfunction. Impossible. It was either an 'intended task programmed beforehand' or a 'virus' performed by the killer who is familiar with this 'non-public distro' operating system. In other words, the killer is an 'insider'. And here are the questions yet to be answered: - Why did Dr. Magata meet with Nishisono Moe? - Why is she wearing a wedding? Why buy one in the first place? Why chop her limbs and wear a wedding dress? Does this symbolizes something? Whose perspective? Magata, one of her personalities, or the killer? - Who is the killer? Where is the killer? - How did the killer killed Dr. Magata? - Where are Dr. Magata's limbs? - What does "Everything Goes F" means? What does 'F' stands for? One of popular theory is that - Dr. Magata gave birth to a child during her detention and then the very same child killed his/her mother. Sorry to say this but this is very unlikely the case. You have to skip a lot of logical steps here to make it acceptable. First, although it's possible for a woman to deliver a child by herself, it would be a 'real' challenge. Second, why teach her child to become a murderer? Third, why murder his/her own mother? There are more I could make but let's stop here for now. Of course, if the child doesn't exist but toys for children do then what does this mean? Magata was probably 'playing mother' with her 'delusionary child'. It was probably Magata's wish or desire to have a child, but for some reason, unable to have one. Also, her request for a wedding dress could have originated from her "unsatisfied" desire to wed and have a child. It could also be related to her feeling 'lonely'. It does makes sense if you think in this way. My personal take is that it's 'suicide', 'consented murder' or a 'mixture of both'. |

I thought the government put her there instead of jailing her because her talent is a waste. And the director looked strange when he arrived in the helicopter. Maybe magata was in that helicopter hiding, which can be true if she had a daughter who looked like her. But I think the chopped body in the wedding dress is an adult. Considering the body's age (I think 14 years or so) it was impossible for Magata's daugther to match an adult size. Hmmm...maybe it's possible on a second thought...what the word 'purple' meant might be the corpse's irises. Magata has 'blue' irises but the corpse has 'purple' irises. It was a little dark on the anime but it her eye color was certainly 'purple'. |

I thought the government put her there instead of jailing her because her talent is a waste. She is not serving time for her (alleged) crime (it would not surprise me if someone else turned out to have killed her parents) because was deemed innocent on the grounds of insanity, I think. At any rate, she is most definitely not in jail and could technically leave if she chose to do so as there are no charges against her. In reality, a 14 year old killer would not be incarcerated for such a long amount of time. In fact, in Japan, given a particular law that protects minors and which has been heavily criticized, you can literally get away with murder by only being put in a facility for a year or two. That you have no record afterwards. As for the amputated body, I think it may have to do with the doll reference. Dolls get their limbs removed all the time. Or it may be to make it easier to put on the dress. Or, as I saw in a murder novel, be directly connected to the way in which she was killed. |

You're saying that it's possible for Magata to cut off her limbs, clean up the mess, dispose of her limbs, put on her wedding dress and get on the cart? As far as I'm concerned, Magata was murdered by a third party. (Or a third party helped her in her suicide) |

simbee said: As far as I'm concerned, Magata was murdered by a third party. (Or a third party helped her in her suicide) This is the most logical conclusion. There's definitely a "2nd person" who either killed her or help her to kill herself. There's no other explanation. If she developed something like a machine that can chop her limbs off and clean them without leaving a trace, then that's really something. But it still counts as suicide. There's also no supernatural like ghosts and spectres in this show, so that possibility is scratched off. Nocturnal said: As for the amputated body, I think it may have to do with the doll reference. Dolls get their limbs removed all the time. Or it may be to make it easier to put on the dress. Or, as I saw in a murder novel, be directly connected to the way in which she was killed. It's also impossible that Magata killed the director unless her corpse is literally a 'doll'. In other words, it's a fake. No one actually dared to touch and examine it closely so this scenario is possible. However, several questions would arise with this argument. First, how did she create a doll that looks exactly like her? Second, how did she go outside her place without anyone noticing or the security system recording it? Third, how is she able to kill the director without getting traced by the system or seen by Moe and the rest? The security system and the video feeds getting botched isn't any problem at all since Magata or the 2nd person using Magata's program could just hack them and change all the logs and records. The real problem here is how Dr. Magata and the director died, and why. |

Pardon my ignorance, but i think "F" means "futsū" or "normal". But i don't know about how this word connected with overall text. Maybe it is not fitting in japanese usage. So, i think, Magata just wanted to be a normal human or somethiing like that. P.S. And yes...Suwano is killer. Just because. |

I don't know if it's the show or not, but they somewhat hinted that Nishisono may know more than she's letting on. Not sure if she's part of the murder or not, but she does know something important. We know that when she was younger she hated Souhei because he knew the answers to her magic trick. She wants to be alone with him. And when he mentioned the elevator she looked somewhat disappointed that he went that route. |

I'm going with the theory that it is indeed Magata's body (or someone else's but a human corpse, at any rate) and that the reason why the limbs were chopped off was to echo the doll reference. Perhaps in the killer's mind by depriving her of limbs he was turning Magata into a doll. As for the scond hypothesis, that the amputation had something to do with the killing method itself- that I think we have yet to ascertain?- it is something that pops up in murder mysteries every now and then. I remembered it because I came across one such case a while ago and while everyone in-universe was trying to come up with symbollic reasons and whatnot, the real reason turned out to be very mundane, practical and effective as it veritably steered the entire investigation into the wrong direction. |

I see my bad. It seems that I skipped the phrase "doll reference" and misunderstood what you mean. If you put it this way, I agree. Anyway we have new clues in episode 5: -the army knife used to kill the director is the same knife given as a gift to her Uncle. We now know for sure that the flashbacks have something to do with the incident. We can also be sure that the killer is one of the people who knows the past and has a connection with the knife. Basically put, who owns the is the killer, or perhaps the person next to the owner. Also, Moe was wearing a "purple" dress when her parents died. As for what it actually signifies, we still do not know. I also had an idea, what if Magata's parent and Moe's parent are actually same? They are siblings perhaps? Maybe I'm just overthinking, nevermind... |

Maybe I'm just overthinking, nevermind... I doubt there is much of a connection but in some European countries purple stands for death. Most people have forgotten the cultural significance of the color but it was connected with the Catholic Church and Passion rites. I see nothing to even hint at the possibility that Magata is in any way related to Moe. They are most definitely not the same people. |

For me when the purple got mentioned, I thought that it wasn't Moe, but rather Magata. The first being that Magata asked Moe if anyone was there when her parents got killed, and Moe said purple when she stared into Magata's eyes. So perhaps the death of Moe's parents are connected to Magata's parent's deaths? There were a ton of bodybags from what it looked like in Moe's nightmare, I forget if it was a mass murder or just the murder of her parents. Also crazy theory, but I feel like when she gave the knife to her uncle, she wanted to free him from his body, essentially death. There she could possibly add him to one of her multiple personalities, since most of the known personalities so far are people she's cared about or should (in the case of her brother he died). |

So, I rewatched episode 5 and something caught my attention. Like, big time. It might be nothing, but hey, at this point I'm willing to take anything as a clue. This one is related to Moe and the night her parents died. Magata said that someone was by her side, but Moe insists that she was alone. HOWEVER, the dream that ends up with Moe waking up muttering the world "purple" has a person walking behind Moe for a second or two. I took a screenshot: See that person on the right? That's the one I'm talking about. Now, I might be seeing things, but he looks like a certain someone... What if Moe is trying to suppress that memory and she wasn't alone after all? Of course, that would lead to another question: How did Magata know that? This anime is making me think hard. |

This is what led me to think that they're sisters or maybe childhood friends. Perhaps they just met up on that moment and simply felt close with each other. Maybe Magata took a liking to her on first sight and followed her from behind. Who knows? Is that Magata wearing the purple dress or Moe? The hair and skin complexion makes me think it's Magata. |

The girl wearing a purple dress is Moe, see how she's at an airport? We know her parents died in an accident, odds are it was a plane accident. Very interesting screenshot, that really looks like Saikawa. |

I have some general ideas on what is going on after this episode. (spoilers for episode 6 and earlier) In the last scene of this episode, we see a flashback of Dr. Magata Shiki and her uncle, where they kill her parents. Of course, we already know this happened, but this is the first time we are actually seeing it. The thing that stands out to me is the doll, Michiru. Earlier in the episode, we hear Souhei talk about the four known personalities of Magata Shiki, one of which being herself, and the other one being "Michiru, the doll soaked in blood." Obviously the doll in the last scene of episode 6 is Michiru, but what does this signify? While looking at your list of clues, OP, I remembered the robot that is also named Michiru. The defining plot point of this robot is that it can lock doors but not open them. I feel that is a direct reference to when she killed her parents. When she killed her parents, maybe she felt like she lost something and couldn't get it back, just like being able not to open a locked door. I'm still not too sure on what this means, but what I think it means is her stilting her growth, i.e. she increased her capacity for intellectual knowledge but lost her humanity as a result. The various childish objects such as the balloons and the teddy bear might contribute to this as well. The books on the shelf are very interesting to me as well. Presumably, she kept adding the next volume in a line of books after every year of the anniversary of that incident (the first volume of a book for one year, then the second the next, etc.). I don't really know what this means either. though. It could be a reminder of that incident, or the books which are presumably of an intellectual nature symbolize how far she has gone psychologically in order to gain knowledge. As for who the killer actually is, the obvious guess is the aunt. She witnessed the deaths of her relatives, so maybe she wanted some revenge. Of course it doesn't make sense in the case of the director's death as that is her husband, but I think we still have a lot to figure out. lucasjrivarola said: So, I rewatched episode 5 and something caught my attention.

If that is Saikawa, then now I have another kind of unrelated but interesting theory. I found it kind of strange how Saikawa looks up to Magata with a weird infatuation. Sure, he could just be interested in her work, which is probably true, but I think there might be something else. This is a big big stretch, but maybe there is a possibility that (not really a spoiler, but just a big claim/theory that I thought might need a spoiler tag :P) Saikawa was the one who killed Moe's parents and it wasn't an accident. Moe's father was Saikawa's sensei, so maybe he "freed" himself in the same way Magata "freed" herself from her parents |

Magata's sister might have been summoned that day and dressed up as magata as a body double. Cutting the limbs may serve to not identify her easily, and the real magata is actually now in disguise as her sister. That also let's her use the identification code. She might have been in the elevator going up and remote controlled the door opening with michiru. It's probably 99% wrong but yeah XD |

Seeing how intellectual heavy this anime is, I doubt that the ending is there just for that. And most of the ending shows us visualisation of Conway's Game of Life. I don't know (yet) how it relates to overall mystery, but I have a hunch that it will be important (somehow). |

This seems to follow some patterns and one of them should be Not to make the Culprit a character that appears later on in the story. Obviously that could also mean that she was the daughter since she looks young, it would still make it so that the characters would still all be present from the beginning, but I can't imagine any escape trick aside from that dress or any actual motive (well not like they have to be logical all the time anyway). There's barely anything to go on from at the moment. |

It's strange that the uncle was not implicated in Magata's parents' death. Magata was a minor and was deemed mentally unstable but the uncle would normally have been charged with murder. This means that the aunt covered up for him. And of course she does not mention his involvement as she describes the even to Moe and Saikawa. I noticed one thing apart from the elevator number changing in the video feed. While everyone is looking in the direction of the body carrying cart, Yamane seems to be staring straight at the camera- or at least looking in an entirely different direction than everyone else: |

I think its the Aunt for some reason. She doesnt see sane. Who the fuck bakes cookies and has a cookie party rite after their husband dies. I bet The aunt and Yamane teamed up to do this. |

I am no Hercule Poirot and I have only seen the anime. I never got to see the live action or read the novel so I only have the 7 episodes to work with. Thus I got no hard evidence yet, nor a steady grasp of the murderers exact motive or reasoning but this is my take on this case. My story gets a little awkward though so be ready. This is also based on a strong gut feeling. As they say it takes one to know one. Needles to say my theory involves spoilers up to and including ep.7 of the anime. The quick gist of it is in the first part a real quick rundown of key events. After that further down are elaborations but it gets long. I open up with a few not so plausible points to get it out of the way. Here we go, the less serious theories: Obviously it was the communists! The Red menace! At least Saikawa sensei thinks so. Me, not so much. Then there is the robot Michiru. Just what is its significance besides being able to lock doors and mindfuck everybody, especially Nishinasuno kun. I like to call it "mindfuck Michiru". "Are you Doctor Magata?" No shit Nishinasuno kun. Though I would love to see their faces if it actually said something like: "Yes I am doctor Magata Shiki and I have transferred my consciousness to this machine." But a simple "Yes" would also do. That would be an epic trolling robot. I wont lie, the first time watching it, that thought crossed my mind lol. I mean, Magata uploading her mind in to the network. But on the offset chance what if Magata indeed uploaded her mind in to cyber space? What if Nishinosono is the killer? Magata could have brainwashed Nishinosono during their first meeting in order to make Nishinosono kill Magata later so she can dissapear in to the virtual world without a trace? What if Nishinosono is actually Magata Shiki who somehow switched bodies with Nishinosono who is now dead and Magata has Nishinosonos flash backs to her parents deaths? Jokes aside. This where it gets real. "Short" version. Dr. Magata Shiki planned it all from the start. Shiki is the killer. And she obviously is not a communist so the reds are off the hook today Saikawa sensei. But Shiki is very much alive and well. At least physically, cant speak for her mental health. Her presumed motive is to free herself. I told you I aint got the motives all worked out. There is probably some deeper philosophical meaning to it that I have yet to grasp. Shikis confirmed victims are: Magata Michiyo, Magata Sachiro, Shindou Seiji, own daughter. If Magata Miki is a real existing person or rather was then we may probably count her in as well. Most likely killed by Seiji when he went to pick her up. Magata Shiki when 13-14 years old seduced her uncle Shindou Seiji the director of Magata Labs. She also got pregnant with him. She then killed her parents during the celebration. Shiki gave birth in the locked room and raised her daughter there as well without anyone knowing. 15 years later Magata Shiki who is actually her daughter starts appearing to public via video conferences again. Some time after that Shiki killed and dismembered her own daughter. Yes I believe Shiki had a daughter, for the sole purpose of her becoming Magata Shiki 2.0 for the purpose of killing Magata Shiki by Magata Shiki without actually killing the actual Magata Shiki. Confused yet? It gets better. Magata Shiki is now Magata Miki her own younger sister, who if she was real is now dead too. Anyway Shiki then dressed the corpse of her daughter in a wedding dress, placed it on P1 and had it go out during the commotion caused by the system crashes. The system crash was also caused by Shiki. Shiki used the distraction to take the elevator to roof. There she met up with Seiji. Seiji killed Miki when he went to pick her up, again only if Miki was real that is. Shiki then boarded the helicopter in time to play out the arrival of Miki. After everybody got down from the roof she returned and killed Seiji. Shiki is now still posing as Miki. With 4 episodes of the anime still to go. She either plans to disappear completely, discarding her fake ID as Miki after she gets out of the island or continue the guise of Magata Miki. Going as Magata Miki might not be a good idea though as the police will eventually figure out something is fishy during autopsy as the body will be too young and underdeveloped to be allegedly 29 years old and then there is DNA. Doctors are not idiots, well most of them anyway. So the fact that its her daughter and they look the same and cutting off the limbs and the wedding dress could only throw off the detectives for a little while at best. I think Magata knew this and did it either for some symbolic meaning or just to buy her some time. She did wanted to erase all traces of Magata Shiki life so that could be it. Her daughter became Dr.Magata who is now dead. Now for some elaborations. Red Magic and Deborah It was repeated over and over that Red Magic and in extent Deborah are full proof when it comes to security. It can not be hacked. Oh really? Although, Magata made the whole damn thing so technically she doesnt even need to hack it. Its apparently such a big deal this Red Magic ver.4, and is realy so friggin mono sugoi awesome (kind of like Windows 8) yet the network was still cut off and the whole facility all went cre-cre regardless. The whole facility is completely autonomous and its control and functions automatic. Controlled all so "conveniently" by Windows Magata Shiki 2015 oops I meant Red Magic ver.4 OS and AI called Debora all made by yours trully one and only Dr. Magata Shiki. This includes the security protocols. And door acces and elevator control and security records. Thus Shiki/Miki could then move around like a ghost without anyone knowing. Unexplained internal errors my ass it was Shiki messing with the whole facility. Besides Magata had already made ver.6 on the computer in her room, I aint sayan Im just sayin. But I am sure no foul play from the inventor of said OS was present ofcourse. Elevator We know it went from B2 to R during the confusion. B2 is the floor with Dr. Magatas room apparently, because in episode three the security guard returns from roof with news of directors death and uses the elevator. The display shows B2 when he arrives to the floor with Dr. Magatas room where he announces the death. During the system break down as the lights started to flash, doors opened and P1 drove out with the corpse Yamane-san panicked and called for an emergency reset. Which caused a 60 second complete black out. Everybody and their mothers were freaked out and focused on the robot table with the corpse. With the lights out and all the panic, Shiki snuck past and went to the roof. The roof Here Shiki waited for Seiji. Either here or before Shiki changed clothes. But my bet is she got a hair cut back in her room and dressed too. Possible accomplices I believe that to be director Shindou mostly. He was the only one who had possibly free access to Magatas room. But even so no one allegedly went in or out in 15 years. Maybe someone else too perhaps was acting as an accomplice to Shiki. As for the directors wife she might also be in on it in a weird twisted way who knows. She doesnt seem like "normal" person. Plus the incident from 15 years got resolved by Shiki "taking the blame" by insisting a doll did it thus not facing any punishment as she was too young and also mentally unfit. Seiji was officially trying to stop Shiki and Seijis wife apparently happily confirmed their version as a witness who got in too late to do anything. Thanks to latest episode we now know she might have perhaps seen a little more then she lets us know. Though true she did indeed ran out the moment she seen the mess. The older doctor may seems suspect of this as he appeared out of nowhere during the critical 60 seconds and super calmly with absolute certainty very quickly proclaimed it is Magata Shiki, she is dead, she was killed, her limbs were amputated, and that the killer is still in the room. Perhaps to provide further distraction? All that in a span of few seconds without even properly checking the body, the room or anything. Having a doctor as an accomplice would always come in handy. He could have been bribed or whatever. But mind you I dont feel strongly about this guy. I list it only as a possibility. Then there are the Laurel and Hardy card board cut out security guards. Not much to tell about them but if they are crooked then we can forget about the credibility of "Nobody was in there for 15 years. Nothing unusual was shipped into the room." Alternatively Magata could just erase video and access records while someone else could lure away the guards. Heck the director could go in unrestricted or sent the goons away for some fake reason. Its not that difficult when the culprit is the person who made the whole OS running the place. Magata Shiki and Miki or Miki is Shiki I still think that Shiki had it all planed out from the very start including the seduction, manipulation and using of Seiji, killing her parents, her daughter and Seiji inorder to free herself from everything in her own wierd twisted way. The sudden appearance of a younger sister of Magata Shiki caught everyone off guard. Nobody seems to knew she even exists. Not even her aunt. She knew about Shikis twin brother who died shortly after birth but knows nothing about a sister that actually lives? Yeah sure. Miki looks exactly like an older version of Shiki. Several people mention this. Making comparisons. Miki despite being supposedly younger looks more matured than Shiki who is older. And realistically, though this is an anime so age is harder to judge, most people should tel foul play is at stage. This anime I believe is one of the better done when it comes to depicting age of the characters. Miki should be closer to Nishinosono in design. Yet she is closer to Saikawa. Looking at the character design of Shiki during her converstion with Nishinosono and young Shiki during flash backs she looks exactly the same. Thats bull. So Shikis younger sister Miki looks even for anime standard as an adult yet Shiki who is suposed to be older and now 29 by the way looks like a 15 or so? Nope the one who is on the cart is either a 15 year old younger twin of Shiki, a clone or Shikis daughter! For most of the time Miki is AWOL for the lack of a better word. She is unaccounted for almost all the time. Thus have no aliby. She could have gone to the roof anytime after she knew nobody besides director Shindou is there and stab him in the back. And he would let her since first off he did ask Shiki to kill him immediately after they killed the Magatas. But even if he regained desire to live he was in on all this anyway. He flew out to bring in Miki and if she was real he killed her. If not, he pretended to go pick up non existing person and after a round trip he returned. All in order for Shiki to adopt the new ID of this younger sister Miki. Though Seiji probably didnt knew he would die. During her converstion with Saikawa I found Miki to be odd. She did not seem to show much emotions, and when she did it didnt felt right. Perhaps it was the english that threw me off. Regardless of it though Miki didnt care much about the deaths of the director and her sister. She responded to Saikawas questions regarding Shindou and Shiki as if he spoke of complete strangers. She was your sister and she killed your parents show some emotion girl. Also her opinions, man they seem close to what Shiki used to say. Also dat stare Miki gave Nishinosono when they met on roof. Daughter of Magata Shiki The issues with age and the fact that Magata room was a hermetically enclosed inaccessible area led me to believe there must be more than one Magata. Either a sister or daughter and the flash backs were in favour of the daughter. It could have been a younger sister too I thought that but she was only mentioned and she was not on the island yet thus she was not in on this. Not to mention no one realy knew about Mikis existence until that day, convenient. As for people who might have a reason to kill Shiki there are no immediate threats. I mean you could say what if directors wife knew about him and Shiki but that woman just doesnt fit that scenario. This combo led me to believe Magata Shiki is the culprit and there is a daughter. The reason Magata Shiki only recently started to do interviews and apearing to public via vidoes and never in person was because it was her daughter. Who is now 15 the same age Shiki was when withdrawn from public. Shikis daughter now looks the part enough to function as a stand in for her mother. I believe Shiki got pregnant by Seiji. Probably intentionally so she could carry out the plan. Gave birth in secret in her locked room. Remember all the toys in one of the rooms? Shiki raised her daughter to be a stand in for her literally, even in death. Her daughter was to be Magata Shiki. I do not know her mental processes, there could be some other deeper meaning to it. But one remains unchanged. Shiki killed and dismembered her daughter several days prior to day D. Then dressed her up and set up on the table robot P1 and initiated the whole comotion that was to lead to her freedom. Everything becomes F indeed. Everything becomes Free or finished? Fifteen seems to fit the symbolic them as it repeats a lot but my money is on free or finished. But more importantly Magata Shiki or whoever she is now becomes free. When she says "Oh how I wish I could escape from this unjust world." the one time Magata Miki showed some emotion and that time she confirmed in my eyes she is indeed Shiki. Also the line "The human body is nothing but a simple container. Thats why no matter how damaged your physical body may get my feelings for you will never change." Gave a disturbing feeling and I can imagine Shiki telling this to her daughter before cutting her up. Immediately after saying that line to Saikawa either an act or she truly felt a little regret? When lamenting that Humans are foolish. For all we know the daughter may went along with it willingly I mean she was raised by Shiki for this very purpose. And she did indeed impersonated her mother during the video interviews. Maybe Shiki now has acquired yet another peoronality who knows. Shindou Seiji Who I believe to be the father of Shiki's daughter. When Yamane all nervous and anxius ran up to director Shindou to tell him to call the police because apparently nobody here got the common sense to bring along a working cellphone. He anounce that Dr. Magata Shiki was murdered and dismembered, there is a murderer on the loose and the entire facility system went to shit. What is director Shindous expression when he was told all that? You could literally see all the fucks he gave about all this right there on his face in this scene. Wich is none! He probably thought "Cool story bro. Wait, I should care? Why?" If it were me Id turn the helo right around and fled for my god damn worthles life, I could call the police during my escape lol. But he? "Hmm, okay I gues." thumbs up. He even gave a thumbs up! WTF? He is either the most hard core bad ass on the planet after John Mcclane and Solid Snake or he is the most flegmaic person on earth. Or he is in on all this and Shikis complice. What reinforces his guilt is his affair with Shiki. If I was told the woman whom I liked got killed I would probably first strangle the person who told me that for a bit before realizing thats the wrong guy and then running out in a blind rage to catch and torture the mofo who did it. Cant say much about 15 years ago since we dont know if he tried to tell the Magatas he knocked up their daughter and wants to elope with her or what ever but he certainly hesitated when it came to taking responsibility and also later knifing them down that Shiki had to take over, again. Like with the bedroom scene. I was all "Man she wants your D go for it already!" But I will say this to him. Dont feel bad bro. Young Magata Shiki was damn hot, well she still is. Shiki, Miki even the dead one. Point is I would hit that hard like theres no tomorrow all day long and even murder people for Shiki without a second thought so yeah. Seiji, despite all the screw ups you did I guess you were a better person than I am. If thats any consolation. Shindou Yumiko Where do I even start. She is not normal. No realy. In comparison Dr. Magata has what will most consider strange world views okay for normal people she is probably downright nuts with a multiple personality disorder though I find her imteresting. Shiki is imo is still more sane than Yumiko. Granted, given Yumikos past trauma of seeing her niece Shiki butcher the Magatas may have something to do with it but really this level of no fucks given? She bakes cookies and hands them over to everyone like nothing happened. My husband died, oh here have cookie! Did she knew about the affair her husband had? That my shed some light on why did she not seem to care much about the deaths of Magata Shiki and her husband. She may even be an acomplice. Depends on how much shell shock the incident made on her but she seems wierd enough. They could easily plant a delusion in her head. People are susceptible to implanted ideas through forced suggestion when under stress. Provided the fake truth is more merciful than reality. That covered the most imminent, important points, features and characters of my theory. There is more but I doubt anyone would read it all. In fact I doubt anybody got to the end of this mess. If you did Kudos. |
