Holy moly, the stakes are high! What's Yaguyo even doing, is it making people that see it comatose? Or does it steal their souls in some fashion? This might turn into a national tragedy.

Hmmm I wonder how they're going to explain this one in the current time period. This must have been broadcasted to thousands of households at least.

I hope it won't turn into actual tragedy, because it was too forced to be actual end state. It would be reverse plot armor, when author just shits on MCs and everyone on purpose, "LOL they're filming and point the camera on baddie because I say so".

Them pointing camera to the weird thing actually feels so in-character. Like, what else would people who want viewership do when they saw something unusual and will totally draw attention. Shoot first think of consequences later.

This. Especially since they’re investigating the weirdness surrounding the motorcyclist death.

And they don’t really need to “explain it” at the moment because it’s been shown that the media has already become enthralled with The Great King of Fear. And then afterwards reality will just sew itself up again like it never happened. That’s just how the split between the normals and the abnormals goes.

But I don’t see it going well for the new woman. She’s far too competent and willing to work with Asama. THAT’S the biggest death flag of all!

A big theme of the series (And the folklore it's based on) is that searching too deep, looking for it and acknowledging the weird is a great way to die as you are bringing in entities outside of this world. As we know this got fixed up, but I wonder what will be the extend of the damages.

I honestly adore the logic of the monster just kinda crawling into their car to steal a ride. And the way the completed entitys face looks! Gorgeous, gorgeous.
