I'd like to say "this will find its audience" but the truth is I just didn't know how to tag this

so either it'll find its audience or it'll get like 0 notes

But what if it was all a dream

This is more unsettling. I know it's there. I know it should be there. I know this pristine landscape is hiding its horrors like teeth.

Ok ok I NEED to talk about a specific scene today very quickly. Spoilers for episode 135.

In the following scene:

Gou is about to tell Satoshi the thing he's been hiding, but he gets too scared and tries to change the topic. He says, and I quote:

"Nevermind. The stars are really beautiful tonight, aren't they?" [何でも無い。今日の星はとてもきれいだような?] (If I screwed up the spelling you saw nothi-)

And then he looks at the sky with the full moon right in the middle. The phrase "The moon is beautiful tonight, isn't it?" is, essentially the subtle Japanese way of saying "I love you". I couldn't find any proper source regarding if saying that about the stars has a different meaning. Here is one about the moon though:

月が綺麗ですね | tsuki ga kirei desu ne translates to “The moon is beautiful, isn’t it?” This phrase is a more poetic way of saying I love you .

I honestly think they deliberately changed the exact wording and made him refer to the stars while looking at the moon, so it's not as obvious what it means. Because "the moon is beautiful" has a very clear meaning in Japanese pop culture.

IN SHORT: Those madmen. They did it. They found a subtle way to make Gou's love for Satoshi canon. I am certain of it, you can't tell me this wasn't 100% deliberate. Gou's crush just became canon. I can't even be mad about the cliffhanger that way. Holy heck.
