Orochi - Ch. 9 - Blood

In a way this was sort of a more complex reenactment of chapter 1. Besides, well, sisters being unnecesarily bad to each other, it focuses more clearly on the effects of the environment over the morality of people, which was also there in chapter 1, but I feel chapter 1 focuses more on how the enviroment just brings out the uglyness we sort of already have inside, while in this one the evil wouldn't even be there if not for the outside gaslighting. This as a simplification anyways since it's actually more of a dialectic process in both cases, older sister always had a dark side, what with never ACTUALLY standing up for her abused sister. The complexity of people is what all Orochi stories have in common after all, and what interests her so much about human beings.
The Orochi mystery sideplot was nice, interesting extra, but I was expecting a cooler resolution lol, especially with this being the last chapter and all. It's still a cool alternative way to get Orochi involved with someone else's life... just become them!
