“Sometimes twins can feel a physical feeling of something that their twin is experiencing at that very moment.”
I was rewatching Frontier just a few minutes ago and I realized this scene from the episode “Home Again, Takuya Returns”. I never realized as a kid what this scene meant but I do now.
See there’s a thing with twins where they can feel when the other is in pain. Obviously, some can more then others and some can’t.
With this scene where Koichi falls and injured himself to the point of death, there’s a moment, only a few seconds where it shows Koji wincing and gasping in pain, as if he were reacting to something that hurt him.
It’s such a small detail but I really thought that was a nice touch, showing that Koji could still feel when his twin was hurt, despite not ever knowing of him.
It adds on to what Koichi said in his letter about always feeling lonely and felt a sadness in his heart because Koji wasn’t next to him.
Makes me love these two even more. 👍🏼💛
