| Wow...just wow. An incestuous wannabe brother who cross-dresses as a woman to pleasure his sister's boyfriends, in hopes of getting laid with his sister. You know, I'm thinking what the reactions to this episode would've been had it aired today? I'm also surprised that the people on this thread thought that "She loved him and only pulled the threat to avoid breaking a taboo."; no of course she didn't. She pushed him without any hesitation. She loved him as her brother, and of course you're gonna feel guilty and miss your incestuous brother after sending him to hell. Anyways, we still don't know what deal the grandmother made with Hajime. Considering that he and his daughter are included on the characters' list, I'm guessing we'll find out in this season. |

| Didn't love the vaguely homophobic/transphobic undertones of some of the dialogue, but I'm not convinced there were truly malicious intents from the writers. Even despite his actions towards his sister, the brother is not shown as repulsive/creepy. So I'm conflicted. It might just be a clumsy choice of words. The ending felt unnecessarily sad regardless, even the sister seems to immediately regret her choice. Maybe it's just me, but the way the sister is looking forward to seeing him again makes me think the feelings might have been requited. Like a previous user said, norms won't matter in Hell. I think she loved him back, but things were just too complicated and shocking for her at this point in time. Overall I didn't expect so many twists though, it's always a great point when an ep manages to surprise the audience and not feel predictable (unlike many season 1 episodes...) The incest was easy to guess from the start, but I was so surprised they added the whole gender identity layer on top. I'm super conflicted, but I can at least say this was not a boring episode at all! Kudos for that. |
