Screenshot Check: Kuragehime – The Force Is Strong With This One
I noticed something after watching the second episode of Kuragehime that I think might play a part in the future of this show and since I didn’t see anyone already mention it, I’m going to point it out to see what other people think.
In the picture above we see Kuranosuke Koibuchi’s (aka The Male Princess, aka The Cross-Dresser) older brother and father. The father is a member of the Diet (Japanese equivalent to Congress) and the family is very rich. Here’s another picture of the father:
And now from the opening:
The father is Darth Vader and Kuranosuke Koibuchi plays Luke. This is an interesting father/son pair to use outside of just being a cool movie reference. Is this a comment on the power that the father wields and the relationship between the two?
Next up is the older brother:
And from the opening:
It’s a shame I don’t recognize which movie this is a reference to but it’s definitely the older brother and I think the younger brother/cross-dresser is the groom. I don’t recognize the bride though it’s apparent the older brother is not happy about this marriage.
Is their marriage in the future for the Male Princess? If so, I’m already hoping it’s with Tsukimi. 
The second movie reference is The Graduate, with the older brother playing Dustin Hoffman’s part from the movie.
There’s some weird stuff going on, that’s for sure.
Unfortunately, I’m still catching up on a ton of backlog anime. Which has increased in size due to reading your archives, of course. Then there’s the backlog of VNs that I still plan to read/play. Good thing I ran out of favorite novel series from my favorite authors (Eric Flint, Brandon Sanderson, David Weber). Well, maybe that’s not so good.
The Graduate. It’s a great movie worth watching.
-spoilers for said movie-
This scene, the love interest of the our protagonist is getting married to someone else. He arrives too late, and outside the glass panel of the chapel, screams her name. She happens to turn and see him, drop everything and leave the wedding, and runs away with him.
Interpretation in this case-a love triangle where the brother loves a girl who loves the crossdresser?
Thanks for the enlightenment
@ymarsakar: Thanks for making my day, I love to hear, “Which has increased in size due to reading your archives, of course” because that’s why I write.
