Because their society has a completely different attitude towards sex than ours. And because they have a genetic predisposition towards engaging in sexual activity in times of high stress and Satouru was there when Shun wasn't.

When was this? I remember that she remembered that their genes were shaped like that monkey species, and decided that humans were different.

I think they still went ahead and did it off-screen. You know how they were in that nest thing and gave the guard a fake haythatcher egg to make him go away?

I don't think they did it off-screen.. Pretty sure they left after the egg exploded on the guard

I'm pretty sure they didn't either, but since there was off-screen time, and a HUGE time gap I suppose it's mainly for the audience to guess, I haven't read the novels either so I can't go from there. Oh well, this is such a small piece of the plot that I don't know why I'm questioning it .. just feel bad for Shun ;__;

They did it in the novels. So I'm guessing we can assume they did it also in the show.

A lot of people think they did. I don't, mind.
