Anime Relations: Mekakucity Actors
I suggest that you do not read this unless you know almost everything there is about the series (if you didn't already know, it started out as songs, then a novel, manga, and now anime) or you wanna read anyway and don't care about being spoiled. I'd post this into the EP 1 forum discussion, but it's long. I want less attention, and don't mind if it gets none. If I do, I slightly prefer more personal replies through this way. I apologize for any mistakes in advance. If you'd like, tell me what I incorrectly stated. : )

First, the spoilers. Or, spoiler surrounding multiple characters of the Mekakushi Dan (Kagepro fans would know who I'm talking about, but I won't get into that here). To be able to have the red eyes ability, you have to die with someone else. They've already all died once. I don't know if they're still dead in the loop (like in Angel Beats!, but not gonna explain that loop concept of the series here), or if they were simply saved? Given another chance at life (I know Momo was saved, but like Kano for example, I think he just died with his mom). Since they're still alive but the other is dead. Anyway, as depicted in the anime, which ties in with the series overall: Kido belonged to a rich family in the past, specifically when she was a child. Her dad set fire to their home and she died with her sister. Seto's only friend, a dog, was thrown into a river by bullies. He jumped in after it and died. Either that, or both he and the dog were plummeted in the river by those same bullies; I forget. Kano had a mentally unstable mother. He lived with her in an apartment. I'm guessing the "room" he's in is it. Momo drowned (I forget the details about her death). Ene and Konoha were experimented on. They were previously young teens who were weak with a disease that caused strong fatigue and collapsing. Ene became cyber data. Konoha, appeared in a new, physical body. His eye power allowed him to re-imagine in his ideal body, but that causes great strain, giving him amnesia. Hibiya's situation is more complicated. Cutting it short and leaving out details, he was hit by a truck through... complex and pretty shocking means. His death has an entire PV solely dedicated to it, while the others have songs focused on something else. That's saying something.

If I change my mind about that attention thing, I might post this in the forums. I don't really know. We'll see in several hours from now.
Uhhh. Even so, I'll make more blog posts in the future, maybe. Hope you enjoyed?
