do u think shin being (possibly) autistic is why he cared about gin so much?

No I don't think so. Shin cares about kids. It's shown with Kanna, and even if he didn't have a good relationship with Gin, you still get the impression that Shin would be willing to sacrifice himself to save a child. Or do anything to save a kid. I don't think being autistic is really a factor here, it's more that Shin already had a strong set of morals he wished to adhere to. Even if he's weak, he wanted to protect the weak.

Every Shinnie I’ve met is autistic or suspected to be some form of neurodivergent. Including myself.

Most people in fandom tend to be autistic in some way, so it's not surprising. I consider myself autistic even though I've never had an official diagnosis, which is why I can sort of tell Shin is as well.

why do you think shin is autistic?

I feel like I've mentioned this a few times, but he exhibits behavior typically associated with neurodivergent individuals.

First thing that comes to mind is his cleanliness. Kanna comments on how he particularly likes to keep his hands clean and well cared for. It's not a stretch to say he's like this with a lot of other things. He's a particularly clean person.

There's also his speech patterns. Shin speaks in a slightly unorthodox manner, like with his famous "riffraff" line. It's not wrong for him to speak this way, it's just not common speak.

He also stims. Like with grabbing his scarf or beanie. He does this a lot, especially when scared or nervous. It's definitely an action he finds comforting, or at least grounding to some degree.

His whole hyperfixation on computers. Sure he was taught by Sou, but I mean he has a real talent for it considering he was able to hack into Asunaro's systems. Everyone always cuts him down to "hunched over computer addict" too. Like it's basically accepted that this guy really likes computers.

Shin also has digestive issues. I know this one is a bit more iffy, but it's common for autistic people to also have digestive issues. It's just a known thing, but also he has preferences for food. Considering he loves soup, I wouldn't call it a stretch to say it's his comfort food.

This last one might be a bit of a stretch, but I mean just look at his outfit. He dresses comfortably, with warm clothes and soft fabrics. The beanie, the sweater, the scarf, and probably a long sleeved tee shirt underneath. Considering the horrible matching, I bet he values comfort over style, and autistic people tend to dress using a similar code.

Gonna follow this up and say, thank you everyone who participated in my social experiment. This will be a rare moment where I'm clear with you all, this poll was meant to show the "irony" of adding a "Show Results" option to polls, as I personally believe they ruin the entire point of a poll. I expected everyone to vote for it, but was pleasantly surprised.

Thank you to all the Keiji haters especially for proving me wrong and wanting Keiji to die. I do too.

Also some additional data I gathered from this, it's hilarious absolutely no one voted for Kanna.

There's something so ironic about Shin coming in third with 15.6%

And also, Gin's vote percent here matches his survival percent as well.

Shin Tsukimi, Vulnerability, and the Role of Antagonism

Like I've posted about before, my favorite scene from YTTD is the scene in which Shin exposes his neck and shows us his collar. I feel like this scene deserves a little bit of attention and explanation as to why I like it so much, so here we go.

This moment serves as a turning point in the player's and Sara's opinion on Shin, and it comes at such a crucial moment in the story. Forgive me if I get details wrong, it's been a while since my last playthrough. Though if I recall correctly, this moment comes just as Shin decides to challenge Keiji's ability to trust Sara, and others for that matter. Shin, who has previously thrown out everybody's trust and makes it a very clear point that he does not want to get close to anyone, decides to show Keiji up and expose himself to Sara. With the added context of Shin knowing everyone's survival rates, this moment additionally feels like a giant cocky "Fuck you" to the both of them. As by showing his collar, he's able to erase their ideas of his ties to Asunaro and shows that he's a victim to this game as well.

Shin's role as an antagonist, while still somewhat there, is now in a very nuanced spot. Because while he still antagonizes Sara and the others, we know (on a first playthrough, at least) that he is acting within reason. His actions are a result of the death game, even without knowing the survival percents his behavior could be very well explained (I mean, just look at Qtaro's behavior, Kai's, and Keiji's. Not everyone can act so reasonable and trustworthy).

This moment becomes so crucial to the rest of the chapter as his behavior shifts and changes. I'm absolutely enamored by his display here, and would love to post more about his moments sometime in the future.
