#new art idea: draw k1 wearing an oni mask

[fragmentwitch]

i cant believe it's taken me the amount of time it did to realize the "oni" in Onikakushi isn't solely referencing the legends of Oyashiro-sama but Keiichi himself. He literally becomes the oni that "demons away" Mion and Rena. I just made the connection when I saw imagery depicting Japanese oni

just think about it!

insanely strong/durable

expertly wields a metal bat, not unlike the spiked iron clubs oni may use

it's implied K1 eats Rika's brains, just like the man-eating ogres of Onigafuchi's legend

he SOUNDS fucking feral when unhinged

extremely terrifying when murderous
