I need Sex education....


So uh, is toboe really a guy? I seriously can't tell, and it probably wouldn't be hard to just fake it.... anyone know? lack of actor profiles is scary.

reply

Haha, yeah. That bugged me too. I'm pretty sure she (Kwancharu Shitichai) really is a she in real life.

reply

The truth is that it´s a "he", the director of the film found this guy in bar in Thailand and decided it to put him in the film, in his own words, as a reference to the Crying Game. I read it in a spanish magazine dedicated to horror and gore films.

Most men accept "knowledge" as "truth". They are sheeps,ruled by fear.

Kwancharu Shitichai is a guy's name.

reply

I haven't watched the movie in a while, but AFAIR 'she' has a fairly pronounced 'adam's apple' in 'her' neck, so is probably really a guy.

Yep, it´s a guy, that´s the "Crying Game" reference the director has said in some interviews.

Who out there would have obeyed Seji's order to "DO IT!!!!!!!!!!" ?

reply

well, seeing as there are no boundaries, genders or nationalities in love and rock'n'roll... why not?

Played by a Thai man, voiced by a Japanese woman.

For a dude, he sure was cute.

Jesus doesn't care. He has afterall been dead some 2000 years.

Tob was kinda hot either way lol

REALITY IS NOT WHAT WE SEE, OR WHAT IT SEEMS, BUT WHAT WE THINK, MEERLY DREAMS.

reply

I feel really violated....

reply

I would violate Toboe.

reply

yes indeed. He's really cute.

Hmm that comment would probably turn my girlfriend on real bad.

reply

Ok now i feel sodomised....I though tobio was cute though....

reply

Me too. In the Crying Game, it was pretty obvious to me that it was a guy.. Not in this movie. I feel totally cheated.

reply

That's a dude?!?

Oh my......

I thought 'she' was hot

Ah well screw it! :)

reply

Personally I'd rather go Guitar Wolf. Man that guy is so hot and so cool. He'd be even better lookin if he was white though...

reply

He will be better looking if he were white ? lol

He is cool in his own unique Japanese demeanor, and he might not be handsome, but I don't see how being white will have somehow have any help in that department lol

"He'd be even better lookin if he was white though... "

That is a totally weird thing to say! Being Japanese is part of what makes him so cool!

And that completes our example of negative and positive discrimination

reply

Well, I think "she" has breasts so you could at least go to second base!

reply

No but she did have fairly puffy nipples.

reply

OMG, does this mean I'm gay. Because she (he) was damn cute.

Could someone get me good pic of him? I wanna show it to my friends, hehe.

reply

Think it just makes you a tad confused, wanting to boast to your friends about it probably means you should do some serious thinking about your sexuality.

Anyway, I thought it to be pretty blatant that she was a guy, well when it's revealed that is.

reply

Well, ace does find out he is a guy right in the middle of a movie. He freaks out when he is naked. Then the image of Guitar Worlf says not to care about genders. It doesn't get more obvious than that =P

reply

If you pause it at certain moments in that scene you can see the actual images that are flashed up on the screen for a split sceond, which are (i think) just red and green and you can see the definate outline of "extra baggage" swinging around like theres no tomorrow.

reply

I probably would'a just gone for it, but still, great movie, interesting addition to the plot with this character. She/he did look good. Wow.

reply

I think that same image (a drawing of somebody with breasts and a penis) is also next to the actor's name in the opening credits. I didn't notice it until the second time I watched it, though.

I can't believe some of you are STILL confused after watching the film! God help any of you if you run into some ladyboys!

reply

Adam's Apple, dude. I didn't catch it the first time, but the second time around it was obvious.

reply

I'm pretty sure the actor may have been transgendered, as men don't have those kinds of nipples lol. If you pay attention at the part when you see Tobio's chest, they are fairly puffy(like mentioned above), which could be from hormone therapy.

But like what was said, if you fell in love with them, and find them attractive as looking like a girl, I don't see how it's gay.

reply

Um, yer all confused. That was a ladyboy, no op at all. She didn't have breasts. That was a guy's chest. And the movie clearly implied she had a penis. Lucky for me, I kept saying to myself, "That girl is not in any way attractive" throughout the first half of the film.

reply

I pretty much said the exact same thing. A ladyboy is just Thai slang for a transgendered male to female person.

reply

I think the dubbing by a woman really helped to fool people.
