I-I guess that would explain why you act so adult-like. I wouldn't have guessed it was the arms, but... wow. Are you mentally in your 60s?
[Nice shirtless clip? If he wasn't a senior citizen!!! Ah whatever, she'll start hers.... although it is a fair bit longer.]
Ah, it's okay if you watch... I want to make sure it counts.
[An extremely battered and skeletal-looking Niwatori is shown undergoing several tests at a hospital, and is later lying in a bed with some doctors discussing her severe amnesia as the result of "an incident" and "abuse suffered at the hands of her parents." It cuts to a scene where she's in a courtyard, calling sparrows to perch on her fingers as a doctor viewing this from a window tells an elderly woman beside him about how the psychological stress caused a block in her memories, which she responds by asking how her abilities were affected. The answer is they weren't, as she can control a number of avian species and share visual information with them. The old woman tells him the Niwa clan will adopt her. It flashes to a scene where Niwatori is seen wearing a uniform and kneeling obediently before that same woman, and again to a scene where she's hiding in a battlefield, concentrating as she looks through the eyes of a bird to some soldiers atop a nearby building. Giving the signal with her spading fork, a bunch of crows come flying toward them. Each one is holding a bomb in their talons, which they drop on the soldier's heads. After they impact hard with the surface of the building, they explode. Still in her hiding spot, Niwatori smiles up at the clouds of smoke. There is text throughout the movie, written as though from Niwatori's perspective.
"Everything that happened after the Niwa family took me in, I remember clearly. I became their adopted daughter, and as a warrior, I was taught all kinds of killing and espionage techniques. The Niwa family is secretly involved in conflicts and uprisings throughout the world. After they took me in, I went into many battles on the Niwa family's orders. As a person without a past, I had no definitive goals, ambitions, or ideals. I simply fought when I was told to. I killed when I was told to."]
