Yet more silliness from yours truly… exams are truly the best fertilizer for procrastination and blogging.
Examine Exhibit A, an image of girls sitting in the world of Utawarerumono:

Now examine Exhibit B, an image of men sitting in the world of Utawarerumono:

Notice anything? All men sits cross-legged, and all women, even Karura, sits with their legs closed.
Now here’s Oboro with his twins:

The twins aren’t sitting cross-legged, but are instead sitting with their legs closed! Of course it’s not conclusive, but when it comes to anime nothing less than seeing their genitals can be conclusive about a person’s gender, and obviously there isn’t any genitalia in Utawarerumono.
Anyway, do you really want this hot image to be tainted by the possibility of yaoi-ness? I can’t fap first worry later.
*all images taken from episode 17 of Utawarerumono. I haven’t checked through the entire series, but if anyone wants to prove me wrong feel free to watch all 24 back-to-back.

That seems like a good proof for the fact they are women. Good job in noticing the difference.
But still, nothing is sure, and they could be guys and sitting like this to deceive us.
Or maybe they have an erection from standing close to their beloved Oboro, and as they don’t want anybody to know they’re males, they try to hide it by sitting like that, using their hands as an extra coverage.
If they sat the same way as Oboro, or worse Benawi, it would be totally visible.
Please note that I am also currently in an exam period, so that’s why I can write silly comments like that, instead of working.
Ah yes, i can hear it from the distance, a sound of a million fanboys fapping in victory. Like they said, fap now, worry later.
Honestly, i gave up already.
i didn’t watch utamomo…..but ur analysis seems to work @_@
*creepy*
The twins are just sitting like that to indicate that they are members of Oboro’s harem…his HARD GAY harem of men.
I remember reading somewhere that the Utawaremono H-game reveals their true gender :O
alkanphel: In the game they’re guys, but there has been speculation by rabid fans for some time that their gender might’ve been changed in the anime.
It doesn’t really matter, I was just looking for an excuse not to do work.
Isn’t the Oboro twins girls? Secound if they aren’t girls they couldy be really gay or girly. Personally i never notice that, plus i don’t watch the show it seems like another story with no point. Could u give tell me if it is good or not?
P.S. this is my dad’s emailm address can u (if u email me) say to Jw.T.H
Thanx.
ellas son mujer porque tienen cola y los hombres no la tienen

It could be because of the clothes, because it looks like all the people who have skirt or dresses on have their legs together, and all the people with pants have their legs crossed. Also, it could be because of the clothes they are wearing will not stretch over crossed legs.
