  2. In this case, it seemed like a plague happened, they prayed for it to get better, and when there God couldn't help them, their hatred corrupted it to the point where it had to be sealed away.

  4. If you've seen Princess Mononoke, I think the "Curse God" thing is what happens to the Boar gods in that movie. They get corrupted by their own negative emotions and turn into monsters that attack everything around them. Interestingly, Ashitaka in the movie gets touched by one of those monsters and it also leaves a permanent mark on his skin not unlike what happened to Yoshiki when "Hikaru" touched him while out of control back in episode 3.

  5. I remember reading the manga… I was SO FRIGHTENED that "Hikaru" couldn't do anything against the phantom… that omipotent deity seen weak and defensless for the first time… crazy. I felt so in danger myself…

  6. 21:30 Ah no, don't put things togheter. Christianity is a really, really small religion in Japan, the majority of Japanese people have not even heard about the story in the Bible. That's just a coincidence. "Hikaru" touched the girl to break her mind, he had no idea that she would have lost her hearing from the right ear.
