Is it just me, or is it an interesting coincidence that the words "...I like you." appear in a white speech bubble but on the dark side of the face, while the words "I like you so damn much." (which sound a bit more obsessive, btw) are on the light side of the face? For some reason, it feels like the first phrase is spoken by the 'dead' Hikaru, who never got the chance to confess to Yoshiki while he was alive, and the second, in the black speech bubble, is from the monster that took his place.
But maybe, even though the monster says things that are far more terrifying to Yoshiki, his appearance is trying to soften the blow — because what Yoshiki sees is still the body of the real Hikaru from the past.
OooOoo....
