canon notes.
Taken wholesale from whatever Rabbit quoted from the fanbook. \o/
What kind of responsibilities does Akito have as head of the Sohma
family? "It'd be stretching it to say that Akki does any real work
(laugh). She leaves it all up to other people, like Kureno. I think
the only thing she puts effort into is existing.
Akito is the only person Ayame makes tea for (other than Hatori and Mine).
The mangaka thought of Akito as a girl from the start of the series...
Loves drawing gender neutral characters...considers them "moe"
Did Akito go to school? "She didn't exactly attend school. She always
stayed home. She did high school by correspondence, and I think she
was enrolled at better (more expensive anyways) elementary and middle
schools than the other zodiac members. It's just like our Akito-sama
to stay home from even that kind of school (laugh). Incidentally, I
pretend that family registers and whatnot don't exist in the Furuba
world."
Sohma family chooses the high school the zodiacs go to.
The woman who takes after Akito doesn't have a name. She's been with
the Sohma's a long time and takes care of Akito just as she once took
care of Akira.
People who raise jyuunishi are given enough moment to generate positive
feelings and the sort of privileges that start to make them think they
are better than other people. The trade off is that the Sohma family
finds or create weaknesses that bind them inescapably to the family
"She's the worst when it comes to clothes--she just wears kimonos all
the time. When she has to wear Western clothes, she prefers plain
garments. Or maybe I should say that dressing up disgusts her, because
she hates to have her skin showing....even though you can see it when
she's wearing kimonos (laughs)."
"Akito is secretly a woman, whose mother forced her to grow up
pretending to be a man. Her mother's reasons are unknown."
"She's had violent mood swings since childhood, but they weren't always
as extreme as they are now. The change happened overnight; afterwards
she began to deliberately inflict emotional abuse on the Juunishi"
"God is a being that was born to be loved, but Akito was still
anxious. As a child, she asked Shigure over and over again if he liked
her. Yuki has seen Shigure embracing and caressing her-- the only
reassurances that can really soothe her, And before long, she became
twisted."
"It took only a glance to tell her that something was terribly wrong
Kureno was more distant than he had ever been: his eyes, his heart,
his soul...Why did the curse break? Why for Kureno? Even Akito doesn't
know."
"...knows that she is only God because of the bond. The thought of
losing that bond rips the ground out from under her"
