I do think he's either death or related to it in some way, because in one of the photos the old man was holding a sickle. He clearly doesn't it use it to attack so the only explanation is that the author had him hold it as symbolism. You know, a sickle, that is a scythe, symbolizes death.i don't know if it's death specifically.
It’s likely that this will simply bring the arc involving that ghostly man (maybe a shinigami) to a close, just as it did with the mountain god arc before, because whatever has been set free on the mountain following the battle with the mountain god—as a result of the barrier being destroyed—has not yet been revealed. I’m sure it’s far more dangerous than this ghostly man (who might be a Shinigami); perhaps what has been unleashed on the mountain is a sealed god or something else entirely.I still wonder why Shiro is a "dog" despite being a cat. It wasn't explained before either.

And wow, I already knew Hitoe is a woman but didn't expert her to be so tall.
Michiru's ponytail looks...

nice.
No, Boute! Stop hurting these bros.I hope his arm grows back. It does seem they're reaching the point of a major battle, a perfect time to avenge the arm and Reida. I wonder though if the manga is ending, or just ending an arc.
You know "something that the Japanese think is tall." is goes beyond 8-9 feets...I wonder if she's actually tall or just 170 or something that the Japanese think is tall.
Still messy hot.
Don't know how I forgot thatThere is another man in black called Fujioka. He’s usually seen with Seto. He wasn’t part of the four guards that follow Miko around.
Wait, is he the ghost of Epstein???from what i seen, the old guys is a kind of yandere ghost that target the young girl from the miko's mother line, he only target the girls when they are teen, not when they are older, if that was the case he will target the mother, but that not the case.
interesting thing, that old man is a skin thief, stealing the skin of his last ghost victim to hide itself to create ambush.
i doubt, there the big mountain ghost that was sealed that is always in the nature.
As someone said, old man is not the thing rises at the mountain... at the chapter 39 page 24... As also we first saw seto and the gang in front of the broken seal. And also Seto saying because they went to the mountain, his work load has grown bigger.
MY theory is sacrificed girl on the mountain was actually a barrier for the seal, since they liberated the girl, that seal got broken, and oh boy... Look again at the page 24 of chapter 39...That mf is huge... Yes God of the Mountain was big like 10 story building... But that thing is as big as the fricking mountain... I also think old man is nothing dangerous as that thing. You know even mountain god is as big as a marshmellow for that black figure...
But also well played, just after that monster has shown, author gave us Michiru and the tentacles just after 4 pages,(page 28)... SO we did thought(at least) it is possible that michiru and monster is linked, and that monster not that big of a deal.
Or he's cosplaying as Death. Such symbolism can be significant for his victims as well, not just for himself.I do think he's either death or related to it in some way, because in one of the photos the old man was holding a sickle. He clearly doesn't it use it to attack so the only explanation is that the author had him hold it as symbolism. You know, a sickle, that is a scythe, symbolizes death.
It could be misdirection, yes. But for now I'm gonna assume the author is playing it straight. I think we will know soon enough if I'm right or not anyway.Or he's cosplaying as Death.
I don't think it's the final arc just yet. We have the secret of the mountain to solve, still. Remember that Seito is here because of thatAll the exorcists are coming together and the thing the whole series has built up is making its move, are we starting the final arc?
