rincchiIt’s funny how Rin is the only one out of the Little Busters girls to use the pronoun ‘atashi’ (One of the many ways of saying ‘I’ in Japanese) ‘Atashi’ is a very feminine pronoun and, well, Rin was a tomboy when she was younger. She's never even had female friends until the dream world happened.
Now I have this headcanon of Rin using ‘boku’ when she was younger, (I don’t think we have anything to prove otherwise? She didn’t speak during Riki’s recollections of the past) because she would totally have used it back then, being such a tomboy. People even thought she was a boy.
Kyousuke, not wanting her to get ostracized for using a masculine pronoun, henceforth decided to get her to stop using ‘boku’ (like Yuuichi with Ayu in Kanon) and chose ‘atashi’ as a new pronoun for her.
