xxxHolic 21 - I lack in believing superstitions. Muahaha.
This episode was nice, but I have a small problem with this: I don’t believe in superstitions. I have broken many mirrors and I noticed nothing. Bad luck happens when it wants to happen, without any reason, Friday the 13th and finding a black cat isn’t that bad at all. I believe in fate and karma, not in this nonsence.
Because of this, I didn’t quite understand this anime. Why on earth would somebody turn into a cow when he goes to sleep after he has been eating? Why would they say instead of that you won’t be there when you parents die that you’ll be taken by a giant scissor. For the test, I’m going to clip one of my fingernails, for the proof of science. If I don’t survive, believe every word that has been said in XXXHolic. Alright. The test. *Clipped* *looking around*. Nothing happens. Omg, I was so scared! *cough cough* Just to be sure, another nail: *clipped*. Nothing still happens. I see no black background, I see no scissors, except those who are next to me on the table. But these scissors, they are not moving, they are not trying to cut my head of so I hereby prove that it isn’t dangerous to clip your fingernails at night.
I wonder, how got those scissors there anyway? Anyway, I don’t have the mood to write anything about the superstitions that don’t excist. Wanatuki was really touching this episode. With the story of his parents and when he was eating with Doumeki, it was great. And when he turned almost in a cow, it was really well done. And of course, Yuuko remains great. But I didn’t understand her this episode. Anyone who does, please feel free to tell me.
