For those who doesn't know the relationship of Shinn Asuka and his sister, Mayu, will probably thought him to be over-reacting whenever one brought up the death of his sister.
However, no one knew the inner turmoil he'd been living through, whenever he looked at the pink cell phone or heard the voice message his sister recorded with that pink phone of hers. As much as Shinn knew, that he shouldn't be blaming the late Uzumi Attha for his sister's death, he simply couldn't help it. After all, it was easier to blame others than himself.
It was his fault that he'd failed to protect Mayu, thus his failure as a brother. Yet, the war had been unexpected by many, and it was like a last minute notice when Earth Alliance suddenly started to attack ORB. No one really expected war to break out in ORB. for it was a neutral country, thus no one really planned their route for escaping.
It was the same for Shinn's family members, thus when something did happened, Shinn had taken the easy way out by blaming the country for his family's misfortune.
Both his parents were co-ordinators, hence it wasn't so much a secret that they had trouble conceiving. Hence, when Shinn was born they'd thought Shinn would be their only child in their marriage. Thus, when Mayu was born, she was treated as a royal princess, for she was a miricle; a god-sent gift for Shinn's parents.
Having a younger sister to Shinn was the greatest gift ever received, he treated Mayu with all his love and attention. However, it was his love for his sister that cultivates her sister's dependency on him and become a spoilt-brat. While they'd been running for their lives during the first war, her sister had dropped her cell phone and demanded to retrieve it. His parents had insisted on running for their lives, but he, being the elder brother who loved his sister so much; had given in to Mayu's demand. Having no choice, his parents had delayed their movements while they waited for him to retrieve the phone.
That, however, ended up causing their death. Due to the delay, they happened to be under direct hit of the attacks. Having no place to dodge the attack, they were hit directly. While Shinn whom had been retrieving the cellphone, was some distance away from the range of attack, hence had escaped with minimum injuries. If only he hadn't wanted to retrieve the cellphone for his sister, his family might not have waited for him and would possibly escaped unharmed. Mayu wouldn't have perished with his parents as well... hence it was all his fault.
Ever since then, whenever he stared at the pink cellphone, remorse and guilt will engulfed his heart, clouding his vision. Having no other way to express his anguish, he'd resorted to the feeling of hate and fury for the Kingdom of ORB. Whenever, a battle took place, he would lose his grip and went berserk.
