Effect theory P: Maybe Madotsuki was never actually fat during any time in her life, but she might have felt so. In my version of the game you get the fat effect from the red man in the docks. I might just be seeing him wrong, but I always thought he was tall and thin :X and he kind of seems really, really hungry. Maybe Mado felt fat and maybe a little guilty because she might eat good, maybe a little too much once in a while, and she knows there's people out there with no food, who are bone-thin, unhealthy...and she saw herself as, well, fat. The only problem I have with my theory is that I've heard in older versions you get the fat effect from the mirror in hell, but that's another guilt thing I might throw in. And why do you think this effect is placed in the docks in the newer versions?...pic's not really related.
Th-that's the same with me...
To further this a little bit, Madotsuki might have been bulimic, or at least have had thoughts about it or known someone who was. There's a lot of imagery that looks like puking to me. The walls in the FC dungeon, Uboa area, and footprint area things come to mind. The tall guy that gives the fat effect maybe have been binge eating.
>>1448Bringing up the Uboa area made me thing of Poniko -- The perfect girl. Maybe she saw Poniko as her ideal, and Uboa as the unpleasant way she chooses to reach it...I dunno.Pulled that outta my ass.

>>1448I hadn't even thought about this. There is a lot of imagery in the game that seems to be drooling or puking. Makes me think of the hospital room in the mall.>>1450That's actually not bad. What with the place he sends you to and all.
Uboa is anorexia nervosa? holy shit
In an older version you get the fat effect from a mirror in Hell, so maybe it's just any insecurities she has, regardless of whether or not they are true.
>>1457 That's most likely, but...I'm here because I think too much :9
