This series of Sony ads featured detailed images of Bigfoot, Nessie, and a UFO. The images came along with the tagline “Capture the truth with a 24.6 megapixel Alpha900”. It was a campaign for the Sony camera brand in Singapore and was released in July of 2008.

really liked this bit from the new interview:

From the original article. It reads: モクモクれん: 特にヒカルのように人を乗っ取っているような存在って、物語の中では大体敵か、消えるか成仏するかのいずれかになってしまうと思うんですよ。私はそれが昔からすごく嫌で、人外側に立った物語が読みたいっていうのが、この作品の出発点の1つでもありました。「美女と野獣」でも最後に野獣が人間に戻ってしまうのが幼心にすごくショックで。「うわ、人間に戻っちゃった」みたいな(笑)。あのままでよかったのにって。ALT
From Google Translate. It reads: Mokumoku Ren: I think that in stories, especially beings like Hikaru who take over people, usually end up as the enemy, disappear, or pass away. I've always hated that, and wanting to read stories that put people outsiders was one of the starting points for this work. Even in "Beauty and the Beast," the Beast turning back into a human at the end was a huge shock to me as a child. I was like, "Wow, he's turned back into a human" (laughs). I wish he had stayed the way he was.ALT

like yeah, of course, the author would be exactly the kind of person who’d prefer that the beast stay a beast. that makes perfect sense

I honestly dont think whether Hikaru¹ is even still alive somewhere in Hikaru² makes a huge difference to how Yoshiki views Hikaru². Its been made pretty clear that Yoshiki understands that Hikaru¹ is gone. Its not about struggling with losing Hikaru¹ - its about struggling with loving “Hikaru”.
