I cried tears of joy when I saw him/j HES GENUINELY SO PRETTY ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY
Also i was NOT expecting Ritsu as one of the contestants? I thought Ritsu was gonna be like Romeo or smt...
So its okay for u to eat anything... without a single thought... how r u surviving as a lawyer my guy
I noticed that all the characters have the same pants except for Ritsu (i think) he has pants with the gold clasps and the characters have different tones of beige/white-ish colors
Like Alan has a more cool toned (kind of blue) while Sho here has almost pure white/grey, Ritsu has a more yellow color while Haku has a lint color shirt but it does look different in those close up scenes (i forgot if we even see Taiga's and i just genuinely forgot Elias's 💀)
Or maybe its just the lighting and im going crazy cuz color theory or wtv
I wonder if they chose to give them different colored shirts to match their skin tones better? Or if it means something or nothing who knows
And does Sho give up on trying to get them to call him Sho instead of Shohei 😭❓️ cuz he just let's it happen after that one time
BUT SHO HERE OMG also that smoothie looks a lot more ominous than when I first saw this img... maybe cuz I was only looking at Sho, like why is it so green 😭😭😭 and not the veggie kind it looks like those videos abt making leprechaun food for Saint Patrick's (specifically the green food dye in milk)
If he told me that grass was actually red and that some salt in a salt container was actually sugar when it's clearly labeled salt and i can see it looks like salt and water was toxic to you and was actually slowly killing you I would believe him I fear
I didnt take many ss bc I kinda forgot... but that felt wayy too short :(((
I also forgot to take a ss of the MC BUT HOW IM THE WORLD IS THAT GIRL ORDINARY/PLAIN LOOKING LIKE SHES GENUINELY SO GORG and her in that dress 🙏 i also thought Jo would be here in this episode and im sad to see theyre not :(
I know i mostly only talked abt Sho 💀
Now here is what i think:
I honestly dont think there is a rogue and it seems like multiple characters mightve already figured this out or r thinking abt this possibility as well
Especially Taiga and maybe Sho since he says that he should make a move (but that could also have some negative connotations yk?) We all know Taiga usually omits stuff and doesnt tell no one nothing but hes still incredibly well informed and is able to figure things out fairly quickly
Elias definitely knows something the way he talks is so smooth and if I were the inspector I would honestly believe everything he tells me
I feel like giving us the most suspicious ghouls to be the spy (Haku, Elias) in this episode is to make us think that they r most likely the rogue but theyre most likely red herrings
I also like how Sho/Ritsu pointed out that we dont even know half of the casts stigma, only their's, like way to gather up some of the most mysterious ppl ever and have them in a group
But i also thought that Alan's was smt with super strength? Or smt along the lines of that bc didnt Sho witness Alan pummeling Takeru's ghost after activating his stigma in the 2nd ep of S1? Or was that because the anomaly was getting weaker due to no one believing in it anymore
Haku also reveals that he was bitten a lot by animals when he was a kid and going back to what the exorcist lady in the last episode said, something about a Naga, I wonder if he was a "brat" (his words lol) to a snake/Naga and maybe got cursed
He's mentioned before that nobody would miss him at home (im assuming he means the shrine) early on when the inspector first gets off the train w/him in one of the dialogue options maybe that would explain why?
Maya was also the anomaly of the last Waves of Love and it was prevented due to the heist by dionysia changing the trajectory of the story which is honestly really interesting to think about, so much has changed in this timeline with the return of the dionysia ghouls
Anyway i dont know wut to think anymore but im excited to see how this episode ends!!!
