Someone should write a section for Mrs. Kimura. She is certainly a bigger character than Yukari's car.

If whoeevr posted the "needs cleanup" tag could point out the problems here, perhaps it would help us fix them. I am also wondering whether Kimura and Kaorin need to br branched off into their own articles, particularly since Kaorin is a major character for much of the series.

-"In fact they are also heroes (or heroines?) of "Neko koneko no Tabi" （ねここねこのたび）, a work by Azuma which is not exhibited in public."

Could someone clarify the above statement, or provide some kind of reference? I cannot find any information about anything called "Neko Koneko no Tabi" ("Journey of the Cat and Kitten"?) elsewhere online.

Go to web.archive.org and serch A-zone, Azuma's website, as in the older URL. Mononohazumi 21:55, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

This page appears to be quite well done. I question the need for it to be cleaned up.SemblaceII 19:33, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A Disagreement

Kaorin & Kimura are not minor characters.

  • They do not appear as often as the other characters, and dont really need their own page (Animedude 07:20, 19 August 2006 (UTC))
  • To suggest that Kaorin and Kimura are on the same level of importance as, say, Chihiro or a vehicle is absurd.(Sandwich Pirate)


The section for "Kaorin" has stuff that isn't quite right and I plan to fix it if I have some extra time (assuming no one objects). For starters, her entry should list her real name not "Kaorin." Second, the "rin" part is actually an honorific, specifically a cutesy form (childish form) of the "chan" honorific. Official R1 companies with an aversion to honorifics in subtitles will leave it in, but make it appear to be part of the name rather than the subtitles, which is why ADV spelled it "Kaorin" rather than "Kao-rin." However, it would not be unusual if Kaori's close friends addressed her as "Kao-chan" (as So when Kimura-sensei calls her "Kao-rin," he isn't just being cute with her name, he's being cute with the "chan" honorific as well and being COMPLETELY improper which is why it is so much more offensive to her to be addressed as such by him.

[edit] Though highly amusing...

Isn't the section on the Yukari Mobile not NPOV? -81.104.135.154 11:24, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Not really. Yukari is show to be a bad driver and the care IS fairlyt dented and damaged. What is not neutral about it? (Animedude 07:52, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

Yukari's car is not a character.

  • if a stuffed animal is a character, Yukari's car is. (Animedude 21:42, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
They're plot elements, and should be listed under the characters themselves as a notable aspect of that character, if they are to be listed. They're definitely not "characters" themselves. -- Ned Scott 04:18, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
