That is the Shadow Kanji-est face, though. I mean, really. Even the tone of voice implied somehow makes me think it.
This just sort of makes me wonder – what do they do when they actually look like their Shadows? Is it really unComfortable, like a sign to back off? Or is it okay now? Do the others recoil? Naoto wouldn’t, because she didn’t get to see that, but what about the others? Hmmm.
I noticed that face in the middle panel, too. Kind of jumped at me. I always believed that the shadows are always a part of you. The difference is, you can control them instead of the other way around.
Yeah – I can see little parts of Shadow-selves leaking out now and then. After all, as you said, they’re always going to be a part of you! If the Shadows are created, at least partially, by the parts of yourself you fear and hate, then it would follow that you could let your walls down now and then around certain people and let those parts of you out without as much fear.
Probably helps that he knows Naoto never saw his Shadow anyway, : P
Oh Kanji… <3
He’s something else, <3;

I could write a thesis on this, o__o
Still waiting on the thesis… ^^
