that scene in season 1 where teruki hanazawa exorcises ekubo mid-sentence... and shigeo's eyes widen in shock?

i really want to talk about it, specifically the explosion meter accompanying it.

normally, when the teenager's emotions aren't obvious to the audience, that meter relays to us a sense of what he is actually feeling. but we cannot trust the meter here. we see it jump up a few points at teru's 'psycho wave' sending the sleazy ghost to the shadow realms, and remain steady at 50% upon shigeo's recollections of the spirit's unsavory nature. the boy outright tells teru that he isn't bothered. and it's funny!

but shigeo isn't being honest with himself here either.

his face briefly gives his feelings away before resettling into its normal flat affect. (to be fair, what he's really feeling isn't teru's business. this kid is trying to provoke a fight out of him, after all.) after he's basically tortured into exploding, shigeo spends three hours in the pouring rain, searching everywhere for ekubo.

three. hours.

these are not the actions of someone who isn't bothered. letting himself get drenched to the point of sickness,

even though he literally holds the power to shield himself from it,

reads to me like unconscious self-punishment for allowing all this to happen.

after a large chunk of his short life spent denying and fearing them for good reason, shigeo's first impulse is often not to use his psychic powers -- even after his integration at the story's end. i wish this was discussed more, because many watchers cannot fathom why this boy with world-breaking psychic abilities would ever refuse to use them.

also: the explosion meter lying to us / representing shigeo's detachment from his own emotions alexithymia may occur elsewhere in the series as well, especially when he's not close to an explosion; i'm reminded of the tiny dent ritsu's provocation of him makes in it a few episodes later.

Fun Fact: The Narrator from Minecraft Story Mode, not only has a name, but also an appearance, this character, Bob, appears during the intro of Access Denied, where he comes out of the Fancy World Portal instead of Lukas

There was originally gonna be a plot point where Jesse and the gang meet him but was scrapped for being "too strange and meta"

[panleystarable]

If Stanley and the Narrator swapped places, it would be one man trying to get the same ending over and over again, with another man with god-like powers keep changing up the story. Just to mess with him.

one thing i will say for the hunger games' favor is that katniss' presence and narration is very strong. i like her bitterness and cynicism, and she is an interesting portrait of parentification. there's a tangible sense that her years as sole provider for her family have taken a massive toll on her. I especially like that she has lasting resentment towards her mother over it. it feels real in a way I don't often see in YA fiction.

for the entire three books i was actually so far in neil's head that very few of his actions even registered as weird to me until i read people describing them on tumblr later. i was with him for everything. it'll be really interesting to see what else i can notice on reread.
