Continuing the discussion from Samurai of Hyuga Book 5:
I don’t mean to be rude tho but not everyone shares the same theory about the reason why our mc isn’t being mind controlled is because they absorb the demons smoke after being slain/killed i think that theory is really flawed I mean I don’t know maybe it’s just me but during my playthrough after defeating the snake demon in book 1 if I remember correctly the mc never absorbed the smoke am certain of that we killed the demon and left the smoke right there it was the same for the general or have forgotten his position the one in book 3 after the death of ige and pretended to betray our comrads to get close to the demon after killing it the book didn’t still prove that we absorbed the demon was the same in book 4 when fighting the shujenga demon we never did absorb his smoke even after killing him the only demon I can say I yes we absorbed was the kitsune demon from the island of book 2 and back then after killing him we didn’t technically absorb him if I remember clearly the demon said something like a curse and our mc merely brushed it off like it didn’t have any consequences by saying they accepted his curse I think that was when unknownly to the mc the demon and him became 1 because of our mc willing accepting it’s curse I think that demon played us there if you look at it it was the same freewill and permission momoko also gave sakiko to become 1 with her I don’t think the reason why the mc is immune to mind control it’s because we killed and absorbed every demon we came in contact with hence in book 5 when sakiko tried to control us with that kiss she only sensed the kitsune and not the other demons so am not really buying our mc absorbing the demon shit tho I don’t know if you guys have forgotten or maybe again it’s just me but was it not revealed that the main reason why the mc isn’t being affected by mind control powers it’s actually started way back in book 1 when we newly became the sword that cuts the heavens we went to that old lady kondo home when she washed our mc’s hair it wasn’t just washing she actually did something to him why washing his hair which kind of symbolize a baptism in my playthrough there was a scene I have forgotten which of the book tho when our mc literally had a flash back on that same old lady scene washing our hair in book 1 in my play through my own mc confirmed that scene as the main reason he isn’t being affected by mind control and actually started suspecting the old lady that theory of the mc not been affected by mind control powers because he absorbed the smoke of every demon he’s killed has been flawed from the very beginning
