another one for the natsume calendar

Me aburri

Is Natsume just going to check in with Tanuma about what's going on in every episode from now on.

"Today the youkai gave me magic sculpting clay and it came to life I think."

"cool cool good to know"

"today they made me do arts and crafts"

"interesting interesting that doesn't seem normal"

"today they made me do the beta for their manga"

"are the yokai in art school??? What is even going on here"

We've gone from Tanuma being distressed that Natsume never tells him anything to Natsume providing him a daily update about how the yokai are terrorizing him this time. I'm happy for them

i hope your march is filled with happiness. i hope you spend your days warm in the spring sunshine. i hope you get to see the first flowers start to bloom. but most of all i hope march is kind to you. you deserve it.

My thoughts have been swirling around the lizard recently. Specifically two questions come to mind:

To what extent do others perceive the lizard tattoo?

How does Natori experience the lizard tattoo?

We know that people with the ability to see yokai can see the lizard. However, in the anime, the lizard's appearance is usually accompanied by a sound effect, like skittering or slithering (idk if there is any indication of a sound effect in the manga). Is it actually making a noise or is the sound just used to immerse the audience into the strangeness of the mark? Could people who perceive yokai hear it moving if they listened closely?

I'm also wondering if Natori can somehow feel the lizard crawling on his skin. This seems less likely given the way that he describes discovering it when he was a child (visually noticing it). The thought of him feeling it crawling constantly is actual nightmare fuel to me lol.

Anyhoo, I might be overthinking it, but happy to hear other theories or thoughts on Natori's tattoo.

You’d be horrified to know what my guardian angels do to me in my sleep and that’s fine

Natori's mask is an idealized version of a man. Not even an idealized version of himself, but something else entirely. As much a character as any other he plays. Natori doesn't believe any of the stuff he spouts- or if he does it's only skin deep. It's someone he would like to be. Someone nicer and friendlier and good with people. Someone desirable. It's a heavy weight that he willingly carries every day because anything is better than looking in the mirror and seeing himself

Matoba would tell you he doesn't have a mask, and he might even believe it. Mask? What mask? Maybe there was one, once. He was too young to put it on, so his parents did it for him until he could tie it on himself. "The Matoba Heir", "The Strongest Exorcist Family", "Hunters", "Hunted". These are heavy titles, many would drown under them. But now their weight keeps Matoba grounded. Who is he without them? Some stranger, probably. If there is a mask, he has grown to fit it perfectly. It is him. Not even he knows what's underneath.

oh so i’m crying ok
