Generally, "Jibun"（自分） means myself in Japanese. But, it locally is used in very different meanings.
Some days ago, I watched a TV commercial on a canned coffee stared by "Fukuyama Masaharu"（福山雅治）who is a very popular actor and singer. In this commercial program, a young man says that "「自分は不器用ですね」" to him. (However, I am not sure what he said, but, it sounds like that to me. )
Surprisingly, in Kansai（関西） area (Kyouto, Osaka, Koube), "Jibun" means occasionally "you". It is very confused thing, but is fact. And, it is very curious to people in other area.
