Also, while I'm rereading: did seiji meet taki before he was named the clan head (since he said he went "on behalf of his father", and didn't say directly that he went as the matoba clan head) or after (since it could also mean that he did went there as the matoba clan head, just that he was honoring his father's past connection)? And does that mean the eye-eater youkai left the horrible scar after he became the clan head, which happened before he met natsume and after he met taki on her grandpa's sixth death anniversary?
#not sure if this is even coherent since i feel dizzy as hell but thoughts are being thunk. it's driving me lowkey crazy 🧍♀️#so funny that seiji didn't even hesitate to show said horrible scars to natsume but he just went “don't worry about it /_^” to taki lmao 😭#i'm not sure how death anniversaries works in japan but taki looks so happy here :( i wonder if this happened right before the manga starts#like. i wonder what they talked about. or how much info seiji can divulge. and did taki handle the guests who visits on her grandpa's death#anniversary all alone (since maybe isamu is already away for uni). does seiji know about the taki family's illegal spells then. waughhh 😭#matoba seiji#taki tooru#natsume takashi#natsume's book of friends#natsume yuujinchou#natsuyuu#natsuyuu manga#natsumanga
