I love the Burial arc so much and this is an example of why. Poor Hakkai - just when he's grappling with his youkai-identity, being usurped by Banri and rejected by Gojyo, he has to save Gojyo from this painfully reminiscent situation and use his youkai form to do it.

I mean, honestly, Gojyo. You'd better appreciate him after all that. *wags finger*

I'd like to think Minekura feels remorse for the darkness she lays on her poor boys, but something tells me she just cackles to herself. ^_~
