Hi! I'm new here... (Well, been a registered lurker for almost two months now actually..
)
Been wanting to post for quite a while but I'm sorta shy
but I've mustered enough courage now!
Actually ~ MUST GAIN ACCESS TO THE PERV!!!
Ah, oh yeah. Back to the topic:
I think that's what it is. I don't think they're trying to be any different, but showing different sides of themselves. Then again, like I said, I haven't noticed anything different.
yeah, same here. i didn't notice it until you guys actually pointed it out in the Rika-sama thread. I mean, people didn't say she looked manly / mannish (?) when she cut her hair short before this... So I didn't see anything different about this type of short hair.
It's token to think of Yossy as boyish, but didn't the members always say that she was secretly girly under it all? Plus I always think back to her mannerisms before she became the 'tomboy' one. She was really demure and soft spoken (more so then Rika was)
You know, I read in another forum
(the one that closed down recently) that Yossie said
-- in an event were she was a visiting teacher for a primary school -- that her early MM days were a little terrible/frustrating for her 'cause she couldn't show her real self. It was only later
probably around The Peace 'cause she became a lot more quirky then that she could lay back or enjoy herself fully.
And from what I see in the really early H!Ms, I always get the feeling that Yossie's so self-conscious, always keeping herself in check. I mean, she barely even moves her arms or something. her body's a bit rigid and such. Plus, I've noticed that she's always just standing idly around Maki... So different compared to the Yossie (again) around The Peace.
So, I guess that's why I say that Yossie's true self is closer to the tomboy version than to the uber kawaii and demure early MM Yossie. But, like tru_harmony, that's just me.
You know, I don't really know why but I always get the feeling that Rika has more lesbian tendencies that Yossie.
Ah~ my first ever post in JPHIP.... FINALLY!
I promise to be good so please be nice to me.
Hope I haven't violated any rules..?
