Have you ever remembered something that makes no sense with the rest of your memories but would explain something about the person you are now?

Please note that I'm not saying that the memories we're getting have made us who we are now or anything like that! I'm just asking if you've experienced something that could explain some things, if one were inclined to believe such nonsense.

I've never liked dogs, and if my memories are to be believed, there might be a reason for that.

[Attached is a hand-drawn image of the world's most anime dog. It's a decent drawing but it's obvious Jaeger never actually draws dogs.]

On another memory-related topic, has anyone remembered how to use weapons? I'm a little alarmed to find I now know how to use one when just a few days ago, I couldn't fight at all. Please tell me I'm not alone in this.

I was fighting with real weapons.
but the worst part was how incredibly focused I seemed to be on just... getting people out of the way as quickly and effectively as possible.
I've had that feeling in fights sometimes, but it was never FOR REAL. not like that.

I can imagine that was very jarring to remember. What kind of weapons were you using?

a sword. a katana, I guess.
I suppose that's another thing... I have some talent when it comes to martial arts. maybe these memories could explain that too.

[By "some talent" he means that he's an honest-to-god prodigy, but he doesn't like talking about it much.]

I've been curious about that, actually. If our "past lives" or whatever these memories are from have some impact on what we're like now. Whether it's something simple like having a dislike for dogs or something more profound, like fighting ability. It's strange to think about, isn't it?

interesting yes but also kind of terrifying >_<
I mean I don't really want to be anything like the past me you know?
so thinking that these memories are affecting me in ways I wasn't even aware of isn't very nice...

I haven't received enough memories to know anything about my past self, so I can't say either way... But I don't like the idea that we're being forced to relive things like this.

and if we have always been somehow affected by what's happening now...
I mean how long does that mean that we've been manipulated by these guys 《ﾟДﾟ》

then again maybe the overlap is completely random and making us freak out is what they want to achieve
haha I'm not good at thinking about things like this

I'd like to think it's all just a coincidence... but I don't know if it really is. It's doing my head in, thinking about it like this!

(／。＼) same.
it's making it really hard to focus on my studies and my work training and everything else.
and honestly I don't know what retrospec gets out of making me think I'm some kind of warrior or something but then again they don't usually make sense

[He's not even going to TOUCH on the recent onslaught of pirate-y memories because WTF?]

That's very true, for as long as I've been aware of them they haven't made any sense. I'm not looking forward to seeing what they have planned for us in the future...

I really hope that it won't involve fighting >_<
I mean, I hope the things we remember now aren't preparation for what's to come
