My parents have said such things and other bad things in the past as well. Their excuse is "It's for your own good" and "Better words are piercing to the ears."

Thanks! I'm glad I'm not alone.

As of today, I'm still having trounble eating because of them, but I know they'll just say, "That's your problem" or "You deserve to suffer." If I complain about something they did, they will just point out all the things they did for me. Well, they might have supported me physically, but that can't compare to the attacks they make. I also just don't feel like doing anything these days. I'm afraid this is the end of me. I don't think I have long to live.

Even if I don't want to watch the OVAs, I'll still watch to the end because I need to finish them. Besides, like you said, it would be good to see Fuji's match though I don't like Niou.

Most of the PoT characters could never be with those like themselves. There would be too many communication problems with two people like Captain Tezuka. If both are like Oishi, then it would be too much worrying. Two people like Kikumaru or Momoshiro would be chaos. I'm surprised they get along with each other. If both are like Echizen, it would become an ego contest.

Here's the follow-up to that entry:
