Kita ze Inbou! - キタぜ陰謀!

[ Focus 04: Altered States of Consciousness ]

This was the best episode yet. So much happened and I was actually freaked out. The freak out came when Taro was walking along the corridor alone and was suddenly being chased by a pale female silhouette. I don’t blame Taro, I would’ve hauled my ass forward as well but I would’ve also called out to Makoto and Masayuki. Makoto is quite the interesting character as well. I’m not sure what to call him at this point but he doesn’t really have a positive view on things most of the time. Then there’s that story he told about his mother dropping him as a baby which he claims gave him brain that’s not normal. That supposedly allows him to think of why people can’t kill others. Yeah…I don’t know what to say about that at the moment.

Masayuki pretty much revealed that he was one of the bullies that caused the suicide of the kid in his flashbacks. Though, interestingly enough he seems to resent and fear that student. I also found it interesting how he didn’t deny that he ran away from the incident. Miyako has yet to be explored in depth though I have to admit she is awesome. That stems from the way she told Masayuki to “Take it like a man” when he was getting his hair cut for a ritual cleansing. I’m waiting to see what her connection is with the guys and the Unseen World.

Lastly, the creators must have had some interesting dreams to come up with the astral forms of Tarou, Makoto, and Masayuki. They look so damn odd yet unique.
