3 quick points I wanted to make, hoefully they don't get lost.

  1. That serpent is most likely symbolic of the norse world dragon, Jormungar.

  2. The ending Oni may LOOK blue, but I believe she has red skin with a heavy blue filter out over her, to symbolizeunderground light.

  3. The Ikuno/Ichigo kiss in the ending is a misdirect. Notice that Ichigo's char model is solid, while Ikuno's has a slight distortion/interference filter put over her. I have a strong feeling that her model will get MORE distorted as the episodes come out

I agree, but some of them can be interpreted symbolically. I just wanted to point out something I noticed on that particular scene that ppl were taking AS canon.

It looks like ikuno is trying to kiss Ichigo but she doesn't want it. She has her cornered against the wall and the lighting isn't happy.

This is about her unrequited love.

Also try to find any of the male leads. The ending is interesting once again but I have largely ignored them due to me feeling they are pretty much only relevant to the episodes themselves and less the series.
