TBHK122 (spoilers!) 🌕🧪

I loved this chapter. When I say loved I mean LOVED-

Starting off strong with Hanako! Long time no see~

And professor Yugi. I fear he totally mogged Hanako. Scrumptious art, amazing colors and it gives off such a vibe y'know? With the blue and green scheme, tentacles (that are hella cool omg) and chemistry them it looks amazing! Professor Yugi veeery different from Hanako and I just love everything that revolves around him!

These two illustration are so mystery-ish. Like with the window and clock behind them it makes it look like they're straight out from a detective game? Reminds me of really early tbhk, I missed this!

*********

Anyway back onto the chapter!

Let's say I'm super happy with what we got this month! To be honest, I think that getting a bit of a pause in the story was the best thing they could've happened. Like getting a bit of time to rest and prepare for what's to come and most importantly getting some focus on our protagonist's train of thoughts!!

Focusing on Nene alone is super interesting since she was kinda on the sidelines in the previous chapters and with all the crazy stuff that happened and all the responsibility falling on her shoulders... Seeing her processing everything was really needed.

Getting this scene? I was soooo HAPPY. Her just being helpless for a moment cuz she's been holding it to stay strong for so long.

She's just a normal person in the end, with everyone's lives on her shoulders, a task to accomplish when she doesn't know how and above everything she's all by herself this time. She always had someone to rely on before, but not anymore. No one to guide her. No one to save her. No one by her side. So she breaks down and god yeah how I wanted to see this! I'm literally crying tears of joy.

TSU.CHI.GO.MO.RI IS BAAAACK. Him being the one to appear and offer reassurance to Nene during this "break" in the course of events is really peak. Cuz y'know, maybe it's just me but teachers always have something reassuring about them. Like they're adults and I guess having an adult with you makes you feel safe? It's like...they're supposed to have control on any situation (or rather give off this impression), and handle stuff you can't when you're a kid(?) And Tsuchigomori is just the kind of teacher that gives off vibes that make you feel safe and makes you look...out of the frame and think of what you can do instead of how you can't??? Idk if I make sense lol. So yeah having this kind of calm character running into Nene when she's in such a difficult situation is amazing.

Her having a hard time accepting Hanako's fate in this timeline is so...on point. She doesn't want to think about it. She won't accept that the person Hanako got to become in the future murdered her friends. Not Hanako. Not the playful boy she could always rely on. Not the one person that made true love bloom in her heart for the first time.

She doesn't know everything, so she probably doesn't know the person she confronted in the red house isn't exactly who Amane grew up to be (if we're assuming professor Yugi isn't aware at 100% of what he's doing/ possessed or at least not in the "right" state of mind). So she probably just thinks Hanako becomes this and she's horrified..

Nene at the start not recognizing "Yugi Amane" as her Hanako

Her recognizing him as the same person as "Hanako"

Okay fuck this shit is so confusing I probably don't make any sense to y'all idk wich terms to use for wich amane I'm taking about cuz they are way too many versions of them

Anyway

Tsuchigomori reconforting Nene was amazingggg. Doesn't pry too just offers confort, did exactly what Nene needed here.

(also Nene mentions that she doesn't recall having cocoa in this room?? Could it be an addition made for Professor Yugi?)

Tsuchigomori learning Amane's old tricks?? I'm exploding from happiness (always longed to see a friendship between Tsuchi and Amane not as mysteries but teachers and I got fed so well this chapter)

What a sweet guy. He looked so happy...i want to see more professor Yugi now :(

Nene getting feeling calmed, amazing.

Perfect conclusion to this small Nene-focused break! I can't wait to see her in action with the clock keepers!!!

Thoughts on yugi tsukasa? :0

hi Anon :)

I LOVE Tsukasa as a character!! and I feel like he's so misunderstood and taken wrongly :( although he IS very messed up, but not exactly in the way people see him. and the fake Tsukasa real Tsukasa thing is confusing when I hear people talk about it or get it wrong

because BOTH of them coexist in the same being so there isn't no "there was never a fake Tsukasa" deal or a the real Tsukasa was replaced forever. because they both went back because the demon and baby Tsukasa said so lmao anyways

the way Tsukasa grew up is really interesting now that we have more insight on Tsukasa's childhood. because the way he acts now, makes sense and then doesn't at the same time if that makes sense, but at least we can see how much he really does care for his brother

because MAN does Tsukasa try to help and do things for Hanako sm

EVEN THE WHOLE NENE LIFESPAN ORDEAL WAS SET IN MOTION BY TSUKASA THAT HELPS HANAKO. he started rumors, so Hanako had an excuse to get an assistant and remove Yorishiros. now I'm not entirely sure what Hanako's plan was before he got attached to Nene but we'll have to wait and see

but anywho Tsukasa is inturn helping him and I think the way Tsukasa acts with Sakura is sweet.

look, he doesn't threaten her, clearly but nonetheless of course Sakura is wary of the Demon and not too mention she's contracted to him so ofc she does what he asks. but no matter this they are pleasent too each other and from the newer chapters it's so clear that Tsukasa is VERY insistent on granting wishes and helping people. there was a theory by @ hanathoughts I believe? (I'm not going to @ them but they're my favorite theorist too read💘) that Tsukasa's ultimate plan was to grant Hanako's wish and how the world Shijima made was made for Hanako by Tsukasa. so I do believe Tsukasa is ultimately trying to help his brother and my mans Tsukasa is so sweet TwT (MOST OF THE TIME) and is even described by Sakura as an innocent child or sweet. AIDAIRO WOULDN'T PUT THAT IN THERE FOR NO REASON OKAY??? anyways yes I don't believe that Tsukasa abused Hanako. I'm not sure WHO, but Tsukasa has been shown to have a SEVERE disliking towards picking on the weak. I really like his interaction with Hanako despite not having much of an idea about what else we're missing, because we know Hanako's reactions are 95% guilt but what about the rest of the tension??? idk anyways I don't think Tsukasa meant anything about abusing him when he makes comments. and the recent chapter where he came to lead Hanako too destroy the seven mysteries and sent Sakura too Nene, those were very interesting moves. but Tsukasa is so smart and observant!! like with his paintings and how this all seems to be some kind of plan. and it's seems we finally got an answer for the blotted out speach bubble!!

with the entire plot played out I'm painting on the wall that means that this was his plan too grant Sakura's wish!!

we can see the train and the circle above must be the boundary breaking?(or let's be real maybe a well or something idk) but I think we all know what the long headed teathed thing is....

it HAS too be number six, that must be his skull sense the other characters (except most likely Tsukasa and Sakura) don't know much about Hakubo/death then the skull mask would be a key factor to him. that's what Nene even remembers him by. and I think we all know what he's eating.... which is part of his plan too destroy the Yorishiros LOOK GUYS PLS DONT MAKE ME SOUND CRAZY BUT TSUKASA IS SO WTF

ANYWAYS I THINK TSUKASA IS AMAZING

and I know Tsukasa isn't all sunshine and rainbows... MAN is Tsukasa dark??? as innocent as he is he's still a supernatural!! and I'm guessing (althou it's messy) that when his eyes are black it's the demon and when we see Tsukasa grant wishes we've seen his eyes MOST OFTEN dark. but that's not always the case so Tsukasa himself not just the red house helps granting with wishes. isn't that so interesting? but I have too wonder when the demon can interfere with him when Tsukasa is in control. because it seems the red House demon (or whatever demon, the well demon the heart demon or possibly a God of some sorts) it has no real body, no form to act in. so it goes with Tsukasa. and it seems both the demon and Tsukasa can coexist. and it's so interesting that baby Tsukasa already knew and was able too go back?? and the heart demon seemed a bit.... off? like he was uncomfortable or didn't know with the fact Tsukasa could just go back, considering it was enough to even add a silent speach bubble! this lore just keeps twisting and bending itself jeez...

I know everyone thinks this..

but it is such an interesting detail that Tsukasa makes wishes from the heart and that the demon resides in his chest!! if he's tainted by a demon in the heart what does that do too him? so interesting..

but I think him granting Sakura's wish is such an interesting part too the plot and it's clearly dragging a lot of things ugugisbsjdb gosh this manga....it may be super messy at times but boy can I not get enough of it

ahhh I'm done rambling I swear!! well Anon, I really like Tsukasa I think he is such a character that is pulling the story in two. Tsukasa is so interesting and I hope too get more on him!! I made another post on the red house arc too if you're interested in that (UNLESS YOU'RE THE SAME ANON👻 jk I just find it funny how many Anons could possibly be the same one[IT WAS AN ANON THAT ASKED ABOUT THE RED HOUSE ARC RIGHT???I ALWAYS DEFAULT TO ANON SOBS/]) anyways I hope this was an okey response I kinda went off on his lore but I just like his character okay??

anyways ty for the ask!!🌸
