One Room Angel - Tumblr Posts
If One Room Angel doesn't hurt me, it's gonna be number one in my heart, body, and soul.
It's hilarious! Angel called upon the power of paper-rock-scissors to get Koki to make the meal, then insulted Koki's face as he told a ghost story that upset Koki enough that he lost feathers.
It's sad! Angel realized that nobody could see him except Kouki and had a deep conversation with Koki about how he could merely be a physical extension of Koki's depression.
But then it's funny again when Koki claimed he won the fight but was stabbed and both the manager and Angel told Koki him being stabbed meant he lost the fight.
But then it's sad again because we met Angel's dad who seems like a really kind man, and Angel is covered from sight in the house by his altar because he is dead.
But then it's funny and sad at the same time when Koki hugged Angel and gave him some of his emotions since Angel claimed he couldn't feel anything, but a kid yelled about Koki because Koki just looked like he was hugging air since no one can see Angel.
But then Koki had a nightmare where all of Angel's feathers fell off and he frantically tried gathering them all.
So Angel woke him up and teased Koki since Angel can feel Koki's loneliness, and they fell asleep together.
It's an emotional battlefield each episode. Should I laugh? Should I cry? Should I stare into the black void that is life? Should I look up and see all the hope each day brings? I have no idea, but just like whatever this noodle roller coaster was, I'm enjoying the ride.
One Room Angel Ep 4 Stray Thoughts
Last week, we met Kouki's mom and learned about Kouki's past. Kouki made Angel literally hide in a closet. He got his brother involved in selling drugs and they eventually got caught up with the Yakuza. Now his brother is one of them and he hasn't seen him in forever. Kouki had a confrontation with the boss of those thugs that stabbed him and beat the crap out of the guy because he was worried about Angel. Angel continues to say the things Kouki needs to hear and they had a cute moment on the roof with sparklers. We left at Angel contemplating the death of a student, and I'm musing on the fact that Angel will have to leave at some point.
Angel is so pretty in a way that feels perfect for this character. His presence was so powerful when he won rock, paper, scissors.
Now he made himself molt because he scared Kouki so bad.
Episode 4: Tears
I think Koki has set up a makeshift swamp cooler.
I was wondering if others could perceive Angel. Looks like the answer is no.
Curious at the intended mythology of a young man who died this way becoming an angel attached to another man who has maybe been slowly doing the same to himself.
Oh wow seeing Angel jump was dark.
Oh, we may know Angel's name. I was curious about the interrogation in the first episode, but it makes sense now that there were two incidents.
The dad doesn't seem like he didn't appreciate his son.
I like this hug. Koki has so many feelings in him, and I'm glad someone can perceive them.
Oh, what does it mean when someone sees how lonely you are and offers to help, and you can't pretend that you're not hurting?
I'm absolutely enamored with this dynamic. Men feel so many things that go unexpressed, and I love that we have a character this deep in himself who can't hide these things. I'm also enjoying Angel's existential crisis and how Koki is struggling with his own conflicted feelings about the dynamic. This show is so different, and I feel like it's helping me reset.
Soooooo . . . . .
I HATE JAPANESE BLS!
They always want me to feel all the emotions, and I don't wanna!
I DON'T WANT TO FEEL ANYTHING!
One Room Angel really beat me up for twenty-four minutes straight.
And told me I'd like it.
I guess I'll fucking see you next week, stupid show, making me feel all the stupid emotions right before the damn finale. Rude ass.
I HATE YOU!
