*nods* It is one of the most basic reactions to fear things you don't understand. It's the same in that part in the end of Burial where Nii is looking at the full moon and says something about Koumyou still not being gone, I really can't tell what he feels about that either. Especially if it was Nii that caused Koumyou's death, is Nii miffed because it ultimately didn't do him any good, or just dislikes admitting he succeeded. I suppose both could be true, anyways.
But what if we can't trust Genjyo's and Nii's estimation of Koymyou. Clearly they saw him as someone who was strong and...I'd almost say a bit godlike, in a sense. Genjyo perhaps more as a parent (althought at times a troublesome, embarrassing parent) and Ukoku would probably have a more cynical view. But what if they both simply overestimated him? Somehow that seems farfetched even to me thought, so I'll just throw it as an idea.
Sorry, I really can go on and on about things =_=;
