Things are getting "hairy," indeed, y'all! A malevolent spirit has come to Yoshiki's house and is threatening his family - it's up to him and Hikaru to investigate and take care of it, but neither are leaving the scene unscathed!
Meanwhile, there are even darker inner workings afoot, as Tanaka is formulating a plan of action and the town starts to reveal some vicious underpinnings...

The body horror of being smothered by those brains is so creepy! I love that description you put on here! Thank you for noting it that way! š That is a great note about our perceptions of the world are all so different! Yeah, thatās a fair point that it could go really wrong and hurt Yoshiki and Hikaru barely knows how to function in the body heās inā¦so yeah, heās all eager-beaver, and Yoshiki is like, āLetāssssss hang on a second.ā XD Thank you for the link! That brain movie definitely would have freaked me out as a kid! Then again, that wasnāt hard (Itās not hard now; Iām easily scared hahaha) ā Oohhh, I would have been all about the Jet Black Wings apron, too! Alas!! The Wig Ghost was a NOPE for sure - Iām glad Kaoru did not keep quiet about it - girl is smarter than she initially may appear, thankfully! Thank you so much for the comment and pointing this all out - I really enjoyed it!! š

Yesss, I definitely agree with that! Thatās such a great way to describe it! I could not have said it better myself; that ādesperationā instead of that āassurednessā of him being there! Thank you for pointing that out - Iāll have to note that in a future reaction intro! Thanks for the comment!

Brains! Those brain people are horrible. I can only imagine being smothered by one. Body horror for sure! One thing I always think about is how people perceive the world⦠with our senses that give information to our brains! We are our brains. š§ so brain people it is, faces and all. How can we be sure that we really see the world just like the other people? We have blind people, deaf people, color blind people and people with differing neurological conditions. I say all this because brains keep coming up in this episode. Somewhat. Our minds are manifestation of nerve impulses that we experience in our brains. We basically experience sex in our minds. Itās no wonder Hikaru wants to touch Yoshikiās brain, itās what makes him, him! It could also damage Yoshiki if he did manage to touch his mind! You mentioned mind melds, Iām sure there are depictions of them going wrong and the person ends up with a lobotomy. B- movie from my childhood about brains that scared me and I love to this day. https://youtu.be/r3EwP-Q9PAk?si=yksVCKlzOLezhssu I was hoping that Hikaruās apron said Jet Black Wings instead of black dragon! Hahahaha! https://youtu.be/zhBpp0yEQH0?si=nUiJ6YsAuROG5zwm maybe you get it, maybe not. Either way, itās a great theme song. A Jet Black Wings or a Dark Reunion apron would be kinda cool. Kept it kinda light today. Enjoyed the episode and yes, that wig ghost was a nope! Iād run out of that bathroom screaming for anyone in the house for help as well!

I think one of the differences that I can "feel" between Hikaru and "Hikaru" is that "Hikaru" is more... careful? around Yoshiki than the original one? It hard for me to explain, but the original Hikaru wasn't afraid of losing Yoshiki. "Hikaru" is more unsure of his position in Yoshikis life, more scared about Yoshiki leaving him or hating him. He is a lot more desperate than og. Og Hikaru didn't have a reason to be scared about losing Yoshiki as his friend, thats why in the flashback with Crowly he was a lot more bold with his behavior towards Yoshiki, when "Hikaru" tries to take everything on himself so Yoshiki would not hate and leave him.
