I feel it's far more likely that the Alien was what ultimately claimed Orikawa's life. Tom was crying the entire time and kept apologizing for what happened, which makes me believe he (or possibly his father) deliberately lured Orikawa out there to "feed" the creature.
I just don't see why the...
My favorite story so far. I really loved how it sits right on the edge of supernatural and hauntingly real. Whether the young boy was spirited away by something otherworldly that eventually claimed the whole family, or whether the mother simply lost her mind after the tragic death of her son...
It's certainly not her fault, and Simon will likely try to make her see that. But survivor's guilt is difficult enough to overcome on its own, let alone when it's tangled up with the belief that none of them would have been in that place at that moment if not for something she set in motion.
Isn't her father merged with her? I felt her hyper violence mode is very reminiscent of her father when he was a Bobcat. In a way he'll still protecting her beyond the grave.
It was clear from the beginning that Umi's true goal was to search for his brother. I wouldn't be surprised if his brother actually made it back home and left behind some kind of clue that intensified Umi's determination. The real puzzle is why he involved his friends instead of setting out on...
Couldn't that just be the incidents we actually know about? I think it's more likely that the curse or entity targets anyone unlucky enough to possess the image hidden in their false bottom. A few manage to discover it beforehand and post about it before they die, but far more people probably...
If Davi were a grotesque male goblin instead, any discussion of her redemption would likely be dismissed with "Cool motive, still murder."
I could understand if her killings were purely defensive, retaliating against those who attacked her with murderous intent, but she pursued our protagonist...
I found it strange that nobody appeared right away in the previous chapter during the crisis, especially given how closely everyone monitors Akane and remains vigilant about her every move. This made me wonder if the events were either a nightmare or a deliberately orchestrated scenario designed...
There's not much more that needs to be said. Mom and Son cross paths with a killer ghost, and now the son is haunted. Ghost kid, who was probably bound to that barred park, is now free.
Pretty much spot on interpretation.
Just a quick clarification:
1. The Note was in the second drawer with some teeth, so Shizu wouldn't have seen the hands which is how she avoided the curse. Mina got unlucky and opened the wrong drawer.
The most confusing aspect of this story is the Father...
Judging by the way he looks up stream, I think the simple insinuation is that "THAT" simply refers to the death of the child in general (and the possible subsequent haunting that might come with it). He picks of the lost item not giving it much though but upon realizing that the items might...
