    Note: Korisu sounds like Arisu, which is phonetic Japanese for Alice, hence her Alice-in-Wonderland-like costume.

    But Korisu also sounds like “korosu” which is the Japanese verb for kill.

    One of those Japanese puns that are thrown around so often.

    A western comic book equivalent would be like naming her Kill-lice

    A great name for a villain!

    Dayum…

    I am one jaded consumer of comics and anime and I still think that is one creepy and amazing power…

    It vaguely reminds me of that Twilight Zone episode where there’s a boy who “makes TV” but with ecchi

    And wow does she have an imagination…

    Whereas the other episodes were just kind of comedy and ecchi, this one was genuinely both creepy and capital ECCHI.

    Yet what a wholesome ending with her mom talking with her.

    Great episode!

      Yeah, the creepiness caught me completely off guard and I’m here for it! The crazy thing is this episode was also arguably the most wholesome too.

      Glad I decided to give this show a shot, what a ride it’s been so far lol
