so what you're telling me is her mother is a walking corpse
and kaya is some kind of reincarnation of someone who grandma either crossed or had beef with

Kaya-chan deal is steadily getting more unnerving by the chapter. Also I want more Saku-chan.

I feel like they are hinting that Kaya is something from the other side that managed to get born and is in the process of learning how to be a human.

thanks for the chapter, there's likely two to three spirits the one that possessed Kaya when she was looking around the room, and then the 1-2 that are inhabiting Mirai's womb and or the mother herself. So the grandma went blind upon seeing possessed Kaya? If Kaya was possessed before this might tie into the whole divine spirit comment on the family tree. It also makes me wonder outside of the moment in the room at the nursing home what triggers the darkness in Kaya?

In earlier chapters when she visited her Grandma with that stalker looking dude (according to story), she held a picture frame and turned into 'Dark Kaya' (Just gonna call her that now), apparently the Grandma was looking/talking about a person in the picture frame that passed away and she has seen that person when looking at kaya, to which Kaya only decided to grin
But, the grandma called the entity as Nana. And we just found out recently that Nana is Kaya's mother older sister and she seems like a chill lady. Now, I'm completely confused. 😅

Hmmm ... Grandma was demanding to know what Kaya did to Nana ... but we see that Auntie Nana alive, seemingly with nothing wrong with her for now. This seems to point towards the fact that Kaya is either an extremely dangerous and powerful entity herself, or is possessed by one or she has like a "dark" side or entity part to her. Evidence so far seems to point towards Kaya having both a human side and some entity side to her. Kaya clearly exhibits human emotions, and she also has some fears about being seen as a "monster." Ironically, it seems that while she may be perceived monster in the eyes of kids who don't know why she is acting the way she is ... simultaneously she actually does have some kind of monster part to her.
I don't have a clue what's going on with Nana and the mother though. It seems like this this auntie Nana is a real person, but then again we really never know. Some monsters seem to be able to reveal themselves to regular people, like the parent impersonating entity did. So we can't conclude that Nana is human just because other people have acknowledged her presence. We don't even know if she really is Nana for that matter. What grandma said made it seem like Kaya's mom was supposed to be Nana. And speaking of Kaya's mom, we really don't know about her true identity either. Mob seems to have a theory about her being pregnant with an entity or at least a baby that's possessed by an entity, and Chie-sensei also have seen Kaya's mother first hand. Unless these entities can control corpses in a way where the body doesn't decompose and can somehow show signs of life like having a pulse, breathing, etc., it seems like Kaya's mom is actually alive. But grandma believes that she's dead. A lot of information here seems contradictory.

I feel that this chapter best demonstrates why Kaya is such a great character. There is no question that she's strong—unprecedentedly so. However, she still behaves just like any 5 year old child would and she's not without her shortcomings. Nobody is perfect, after all.

There's still so much mystery about Kaya scaring her grandma to almost this death-like/comatose state
