The Garden of Sinners (空ã�®å¢ƒç•Œ Kara no Kyoukai/"Boundary of Emptiness" in Japan) is a series of Light Novels written by Kinoko Nasu of Type-Moon/Notes fame and illustrated by Takashi Takeuchi, written before they both became involved in the Visual Novel business. The novels were originally released independently online and at Comiket from 1998 to 1999, later being officially published and reprinted by Kodansha in 2004 and 2007. Though considered by many to be the prototype of Tsukihime, its story and structure are also much, much more complex, sometimes to the point of Mind Screw.April 1995. Shiki Ryougi is a girl from a centuries old clan that often develop supernatural abilities. In Shiki's case, she has two distinct ​"male" and "female" personalities, both conscious, both aware of the other, and both essentially the same person with different qualities. Unfortunately, these dual consciousnesses, combined with her family's strict upbringing to make the most of them, has led her to avoid others' company. One day at school, however, an empathetic classmate, Mikiya Kokutou, tries to break her self-imposed isolation. Soon thereafter, gruesome murders begin occurring across the city, and one night several months later, Mikiya stumbles on Shiki standing over a headless corpse, drenched in blood. Refusing to believe that she was the killer, Mikiya keeps trying to become closer to Shiki... until coming up on a year after they met, he grows a little closer than he'd like.I don't... want to die...A warm smile.I want to kill you.June 1998. Shiki Ryougi wakes up from a coma, and finds she cannot identify her memories as her own. Her doctors say she was in a car accident 2 years ago. In her mind, she feels only " " — utter void. There is no more male nor female Shiki. There is only her... and a strange new ability to stare, and cut, into the void of everything else as well. A "specialist" named Touko Aozaki calls this strange new power the "Mystic Eyes of Death Perception". As Shiki struggles through her own life like a stranger, she begins using her newfound power to throw herself into the middle of bizarre disappearances, suicides and murders in a desperate attempt to just feel alive again, dragging Mikiya, who still refuses to give up on Shiki, and an increasingly fascinated Touko, along with her.The Garden of Sinners can be read as a multitude of ways. On the surface level, it is a Paranormal Investigation story about Touko, Mikiya, and Shiki's Garan-no-dou detective agency investigating various seemingly unconnected supernatural crimes in their city that are slowly revealed to be the design of a far grander plot. It is also, however, a story of Shiki coming to terms with the death of her other self — the only companion she has ever had or needed before. Finally, it is a dark and twisted love story of a perfectly ordinary boy and an extraordinarily broken girl. As one of the earliest works within the Nasuverse, the novel also introduces most of The 'Verse's fundamental concepts, including souls, Akasha, the Counter Force, Magic and Magecraft, and Origins. | |

Sliding Scale of Free Will vs. Fate | |
The Garden of Sinners / int_129074bf | comment |
Sliding Scale of Free Will vs. Fate: Both Shizune and Meruka come to believe that their futures are predetermined Because Destiny Says So, but Shizune is proven wrong when Mikiya simply acts on her prediction and saves the life of a man whose death she foresaw, while Meruka learns his lesson in a much more violent and traumatic fashion from Shiki, who literally destroys the future he set up for her, taking his precognitive ability as collateral damage. | |

Bloodless Carnage | |
The Garden of Sinners / int_135b9977 | comment |
Bloodless Carnage: Despite the large amount of blood elsewhere in the movie, the scene near the beginning of Tomoe killing his mother is oddly lacking. This lack of blood is actually a critical clue to what's really going on. This also works as an effective Mind Screw, since when blood starts appearing again it has a jarring effect. | |

Never Given a Name | |
The Garden of Sinners / int_14908436 | comment |
Never Given a Name: Shiki Ryougi's "third personality" is referred to simply with a pair of empty quotation marks, since it is actually the result of the Ryougi family's "split mind" psychic abilities forcing a vacated space in her mind to gain control of her body. Even calling it something like "Void Shiki" is said to be inaccurate, since the true nature of "" cannot be expressed by language, but it is implied to be the nothingness before the universe given human form, with Enlightenment Superpowers of inconceivable strength. | |

The Garden of Sinners / int_17ce80aa | comment |
All There in the Manual: The concepts in this movie are a lot clearer after reading the novels. The movie is also more passive over the fact that Tomoe escaping and Shiki and Touko getting involved (most of the plot, really) were caused by the Counter Force manipulating them to have the situation resolved. | |

Inconsistent Episode Lengths: The anime is a series of 7 movies - 8 with the bonus film - narrating a continuous story and ranging in length from 45 minutes (episode 4) to 2 hours (episode 7). This mainly has to do with the source material being a Light Novel whose chapters varied wildly in their word count. | |

Still, he ultimately finds this alternative much better than being effectively doomed to win at all times. | |

Talking Down the Suicidal: Asagami Fujino's "talking down" is more like "scaring you shitless of death": after interrupting Miyazuki's suicide attempt, she points out the ineffectiveness of her chosen method and offers her help, admitting to prior murders and demonstrating her powers. Miyazuki is sufficiently freaked out by it to break down and to actually talk about her issues, allowing herself to finally move on. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle: Averted, despite what was shown. While it looks as if Shiki was able to take out Lio easily in the final battle, her earlier confrontation proved he was more than a match for her. The novel elaborates, outlining how Shiki was still experiencing the lingering paralyzing effects of the drugs, and Lio was weakening Shiki's limbs one by one like a predator slowly taking down its prey, with the final blow directed at her neck. Had she waited a second longer, she would have died. When she chose to fight back, Shiki basically took full advantage of the amount of space between them and struck as effectively as she could at precisely the right moment to ensure he went down before he could injure her further. The result was a Single-Stroke Battle. | |

Alternate Continuity | |
The Garden of Sinners / int_450c5a85 | comment |
Alternate Continuity: Even though Aoko Aozaki's sister Touko is a major character here, some contradicting facts in the Nasuverse canon indicate this series isn't the same universe in which Tsukihime takes place. invokedWord of God states that there can only be one user of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, which means Shiki Tohno either doesn't exist or just doesn't have the eyes since Shiki Ryougi has them here. In addition, Touko Aozaki's goal contradicts with the existence of the True Ancestor Arcueid, also from Tsukihime. | |

The Garden of Sinners / int_465b8fcd | comment |
Revealing Continuity Lapse: In the anime adaptation, where apparent continuity errors allow the viewers to piece together the distorted chronology of the movie, e.g. when Touko arrives at the Oogawa building, she parks next to two cars already there, but in the next scene, we see Mikiya and Tomoe arrive in one of the cars that "were" already there in Touko's scene, allowing viewers to infer that Touko arrives after the guys have gone inside. | |

He is OK with it, though, since she also reads that his dream will live on and eventually be realized. | |

The Garden of Sinners / int_5067fd81 | comment |
Everyone Is Bi: Several concepts tackled in the series present the idea that a person's gender in correlation with their sexual orientation is never truly fixed, and that every person has a dual mentality within themselves. | |

Adaptation Distillation | |
The Garden of Sinners / int_5a40d6a | comment |
Adaptation Distillation: The author of the original novels had hoped to rewrite several of the stories to be less "clumsy". Then he read the script for the first movie, and concluded that there was no need—they'd already addressed his concerns by cutting out most of the excesses. The manga adaptation glosses over some scenes from the movies, only keeping relevant plot threads in order to fit the limited pages. This allows the manga to fit in some Adaptation Expansion. | |

Once More, with Clarity: The audience finally gets to see the event that led to Shiki's coma from where the second movie cuts off, but it cuts out some of the dialogue, so while the audience understands what happened, they don't understand, among other things, why it happened. Later, the segment with the cut dialogue is revisited, only now the dialogue is present, explaining why Shiki tried to kill Mikiya and why she tried to commit suicide afterwards. | |

Primordial Tongue: The Unified Language is the language of ancient Babylonia, back when no other languages existed and humans, animals, and non-living things all spoke. It is able to commune directly with the soul, allowing it to function as a form of telepathy or hypnotism that can force people to do things. In the modern day, the only person able to speak it is Satsuki Kurogiri after he was kidnapped and tampered with by faeries. | |

Where the Hell Is Springfield?: Played straight in the anime adaptation, where the location of Mifune City is carefully obscured (except the fact that it lies on the coast). Subverted in the original novel, whose fifth chapter places Mifune firmly within the Greater Tokyo Area, when Tomoe makes his way from Shiki's apartment to the famous Hachiko statue at the Shibuya Crossing within a couple of hours. Witch on the Holy Night also retroactively places it in the vicinity of the Misaki Town (its main setting, as well as the pre-remake Tsukihime's), by putting the Reien Girls Academy (which both Azaka Kokutou and Alice Kuonji attend) within a bus ride of both of them. | |

Creepy Doll: Cornelius Alba has a strange collection of puppets in his gallery. Unlike Touko's dolls where they are lifelike, his is a mishmash of doll parts arranged in eccentric formations. | |

Didn't Think This Through: After Araya explains how he locked Shiki in his magecraft bounded field to stop the Counter Force from manipulating events to stop him from reaching the Akashic Records through her, Touko laughs in his face for using nothing but magecraft to contain a person with eyes that let her destroy all magecraft and is directly connected to that Counter Force through them. | |

Schrödinger's Butterfly: A variant with the dream Mikiya tells to Shiki at the end of the film where he dreams of a dragonfly and a butterfly struggling to catch it, commenting that it would have been easier if the butterfly just floated instead of flying. It's an analogy of Kirie Fujou's love for him and the latter's suicide on the rooftop while he was kidnapped and asleep. | |

Notably, he was confronted about halfway through the series and taken out, leaving Lio Shirazumi as the Final Boss whom Souren drove insane by awakening his Origin. | |

Jobless Parent Drama | |
The Garden of Sinners / int_974e6dcc | comment |
Jobless Parent Drama: This is a major story arc, specifically with Tomoe Enjo's family: his father couldn't find any work (because he ran over a teenager while driving under influence, so nobody would ever hire him again) and gave to drinking. Tomoe assumes that this was what drove his mother to stab her husband to death before attempting to kill him, too (he then killed her in self-defense). This all turns out to be Fake Memories, however: the Enjo family was actually quite loving and tightly-knit despite their hardships, but had the misfortune of moving into an apartment block used by the Big Bad for experiments that drove them insane, then killed them. The Tomoe we meet is actually a clone with tweaked memories implanted to lure Shiki to the Big Bad's lair. | |

Foreshadowing | |
The Garden of Sinners / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: There are several hints left in the movie which point out to Lio Shirazumi being involved in the killings. He is one of the few other students that are name-dropped, and he actually appears right before the first shown murder scene, with Shiki standing next to the victim and smearing their blood on her lips. It's not until Chapter 7, where all the foreshadowing in Chapter 2 is brought up again. | |

Continuity Nod: Done very literally in-story with a completely different (and important) meaning: while Shiki is basically in Akasha and viewing all the moments the Counter Force had an influence on the situation, she sees the moment she first met Mikiya — and "that her" stops talking, looks up at the screen where Shiki is watching from Akasha, and smiles at her. This is a huge plot detail. | |

Leitmotif | |
The Garden of Sinners / int_9f6fb586 | comment |
Leitmotif: In the movies, a specific tune (of which, Seventh Heaven, aptly the ED of the seventh film, is the vocal version) is usually associated with Shiki (see also Theme Music Power-Up). The villains in Chapter 5 also get Leitmotifs representative to their personalities (that Alba's sounds vaguely like "Hall of the Mountain King" may be a reference to M). Shiki's Leitmotif even finds its way into Melty Blood Actress Again as her stage's music. | |

Meteor Move | |

Meteor Move: After fighting with Shiki and realizing that she is stronger physically, Araya teleports from the tenth floor (where they both are) down to the the ground outside. Shiki goes to the nearest opening, jumps down and lands sword-first right on top of him, breaking the usually invincible Japanese Sword and knocking Shiki out in process. And even then she was only saved by the Big Bad's Mobile Bounded Field (kind of like a shield) taking most of the landing impact (it's slightly implied he activated it on purpose for that reason). | |

Bowdlerization | |
The Garden of Sinners / int_a49914aa | comment |
Bowdlerization: The child prostitution and teen pregnancy subplot between Tachibana Kaori and Hayama Hideo in the novel is reduced to drug addiction in the movie. Which is odd, considering Fujino's rather graphic rape scenes in the third movie were preserved. They also left Kurogiri's fate unclear: we never see Ouji kill him in the ending. It actually looked like Shiki simply cut him as he restored her memories, but then the scene ends, which might imply that he died in that encounter. | |

The Garden of Sinners / int_a698ad42 | comment |
City with No Name: The city where the story takes place is never actually referred by name in the entirety of the original novel (although there are many indications that it's Tokyo), and in fact, the name "Mifune" first appeared in the Mirai Fukuin bonus chapter, ten years after the original publication. In a strange twist of recursive inspiration, the city name appears, out-of-universe, to have been chosen to match that of the character "Mother (of) Mifune" (exclusive to Mirai Fukuin), who, in turn, was named after Chizuko Mifune, whereas in-universe, Mother Mifune was probably named so after the city she lives in. | |

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: When Alba confronts Araya for defeating Touko, he openly calls her "Dirty Red" while her still-living head is around. Araya, realizing Alba's foolishness, gives him the head and allows him to do with it whatever he wants. Alba later crushes Touko's head in front of Mikiya and kills her, but this turns out to be a fatal mistake, as this triggers Touko's fail-safe and awakens her next back-up body that's been getting memories directly from her previous self this entire time. For insulting her earlier, she mercilessly kills him. | |

Loophole Abuse | |
The Garden of Sinners / int_b1dde8fd | comment |
Loophole Abuse: Normally, Shiki can't do anything about the future with her Mystic Eyes. The future is usually too uncertain and changing. It doesn't really "exist" until it becomes the present. Even Seo's predictions are just uncertain (albeit highly likely) probabilities. However, Meruka's precognitive "calculation" allows him to get the exact future that he wants. This would normally be a good thing that makes it better than just simply predicting the future, but this narrows down the possiblilities of the future, removing its uncertainty and making it a concrete concept. In other words, the future now has an existence, and Shiki can kill anything that exists... | |

Extra-Long Episode: Most movies that comprise the adaptation are about an hour long. Chapter 5 and 7, however, are at least twice that, because they are so pivotal to the plot. The former resolves the overarching conflict with the Big Bad of the series, while the latter brings closure to the lead couple's personal arcs. | |

Informed Attribute: The Ryougi are a Yakuza family. This is barely a part of the narrative, there are no further depths to it, no one chastises, recognizes, mentions, praises, gets shocked for Shiki being part of it, there are no gang rivals, no turf wars, no problems with the police; nothing to place value to this fact happens until the very last event in the very last novel/movie gives some weight to it. | |

Shout-Out: Azaka mentions she's dogsitting for her roommate Seo. Nasuverse veterans will assume she means Seo Akira, Akiha's friend in Kagetsu Tohya. When we get to see her at the end of the film, she does indeed appear to be a tously-haired Expy, although she's evidently not the same one - the dog's name is Akira. In addition, the headmistress of the Reien Girls' Academy is mentioned to be one Mother Riesbyfe, who has a large stringed instrument case in her office. | |

Thread of Prophecy, Severed | |

Thread of Prophecy, Severed: A precognitive terrorist sets up a Death Trap for Shiki, foreseeing a 100% chance of successfully killing her. Because his vision is so clear, however, Shiki is able to "see" it, too, and, using her Mystic Eyes of Death Perception (which let her essentially destroy anything she can perceive visually), "kills" that particular timeline outright, rendering her attacker's prophecy utterly wrong (and stripping him of prophetic powers as a side effect). | |

Two Lines, No Waiting: The story basically consists of two plots related only by their overarching theme and occurring at the same time. The first being Mikiya and Seo's encounter and their talk about the future not set in stone, and the second is Shiki hunting down the bomber who has the ability to choose a particular future. | |

Vitriolic Best Buds: Azaka actually respects Shiki, and is quite fond of her; the feeling is mutual on Shiki's part. The girls understand each other enough to laugh at and finish the punch line of each other's jokes, and marvellously complementing each together in abilities on the battlefield. The one thing that prevents them from actually openly admitting their friendship to one another is their shared love for Mikiya. | |

He even goes as far as to gleefully sing Bethoven's 9th Symphony 4th Movement, the favourite tune of Alex from A Clockwork Orange, when he tried to murder Mikiya in a chillingly sadistic torture scene. Maybe not so coincidentally, Mikiya himself has sung Singin' In The Rain, the song that Alex sung while raping a writer's helpless wife, twice in the film series. | |

Snow Means Love: Just as Mikiya and Shiki are about to leave the shrine and Mikiya offers his hand to her in a symbolically chivalrous gesture, the first snow of the year begins to fall. | |

Survivor Guilt | |
The Garden of Sinners / int_feaf12e8 | comment |
Survivor Guilt: Miyazuki has some serious emotional issues following Yuuko's death, particularly since she believes it were her own inconsiderate words that led to Yuuko's suicide, unaware of Fujou's role in it. | |

Talking Is a Free Action: Touko chatters on about her meaning of life for a while after Araya rips her heart out and only seems to actually die when he crushes it in his hand. | |

Pet the Dog: Shiki goes somewhere between this and simple Tsundere-ness (but not quite - she is very hard to categorize) when she starts stabbing her pillow in frustration while griping about Mikiya's absence to Tomoe. | |
