....that was sadder than I expected ;_____________;








I never realized how much I came to like Kageyama until this episode. That was harsh, specially because... it didn't have to end like that, at all. If only he hadn't taken those necklaces.

And then Yaguruma... I mean, it's pretty obvious that that's what Kageyama wanted, and finally...





"Aibou, we're together eternally. Let's go catch that light that exists only for us."




So bittersweet. ;___________________________;



Kind of SxSy. In reverse, I mean, if Seishirou HAD killed Subaru... except Yaguruma really isn't very Seishirou-y, but the situation, the feel of it, it reminds me a lot of the aftermath at Rainbow Bridge.





Hide blew me away in this ep. Just... that bit where he tightens his jaw, just before he henshins, because he's not going to show much more than that, but it's enough to convey VOLUMES about Yaguruma's feelings.






ETA: [livejournal.com profile] dimmie, I'm pretty sure this is you were talking about today, about something you wanted to say but couldn't yet? :3

(obviously KickHopper is way stronger than PunchHopper, so in the missing footage we'll never see there would probably be Yaguruma secretly letting himself get hit enough times/hard enough to be sure he was done for before finishing Kageyama, so he could die with his partner but wouldn't have to actually off himself after the fight - THAT I don't see Yaguruma doing)

Yeah, that's why my first reaction was 'What happens to Yaguruma!" because suicide doesn't really seme like his thing, and if he was already dying it makes much more sense.


but he had every intention of dying like a man, even if dying was the only thing he did right in life.

Unlike how he WOULD have died if Yaguruma hadn't come and saved his ass. So in a way, that's what Yaguruma did, saved him from dying without any sort of honor, alone like a dog, and instead gave him a little while of feeling accepted and like he had a place in the world with yaguruma, and when it was time, Kageyama died "like a man". So at least he could give him that.
