So I've been thinking of the last chapter. But first. Peep this lol.
Eerily similar laughter. Could this have been a relative of Hanma's? His father? Is that why Hanma is hellbent on taking revenge on Mikey
What if Hanma is some type of judge? He's known as the reaper, who judges who lives and dies and takes lives. What if he haunts those leapers who have acquired their powers wrongly and makes them suffer?
Takemitchy is a leaper and we know he never killed anyone, and yet he has the powers. What if he got them from being pushed by a leaper? Probably Shinichiro.
The old hobo stresses that Shinichiro chose to kill
Just like he previously did. From his words it is heavily implied that killing is not the only way of getting the power. And the way he talks about giving the power as well
Interesting how the 'person in front of me' is under apostrophes. Just like whoever pushed Takemitchy had him in front of him. Idk maybe they didn't try giving Mitchy powers but taking it away from him but the powers saved him.
And the way the old hobo curses Shin is probably why he cannot save Mikey no matter what he tries.
