I Got a New Little Brother I Don’t Know Recently

[1] At first, it was just me, my younger brother, Mom, and Dad. But recently, a new little brother appeared. Now I have two younger brothers.

• [2] Oh, you had babies born in consecutive years, right? Congratulations.

[6] >>2 No, not consecutive years. My brother is 15 years old.

[3] My family acts like having two younger brothers is totally normal. He’s a stranger.

[8] I don’t understand why Mom and Dad are acting like this is normal. Also, his voice is annoying. Is it okay to post this on the occult thread?

• [10] Please, go ahead. Continue.

[13] >>10 Thank you for listening.

[9] The new little brother is quiet sometimes, but when he’s loud, it’s so loud it hurts my ears, like they’re going to burst. I feel like I don’t have a place here. I feel shaky.

[11] The new little brother changes shape every time I see him. Right now, he’s in the corner.

• [12] What exactly are you trying to say? Are you implying that this “brother” is some kind of demon that got into your house?
• [17] >>12 here. I just want to confirm, is this possibly your imagination or something, and it’s actually a newborn child that you just haven’t accepted? I’m not asking to criticize you, but I apologize if I offended you.

[18] >>17 I’m not angry. Please don’t apologize. Mom went to the hospital recently, so he’s the new little brother. But, even though he’s my brother, he moves.

[14] I don’t think he’s a demon. But he just showed up at our house suddenly, and he’s loud.

[15] The new little brother is always with Mom. Because he’s small. But this new little brother is different.

[16] He’s suddenly loud, it’s startling, and he’s always staring at me. He looks at me and laughs.

• [20] What do you mean by “even though he’s my brother, he moves”? Do you mean he moves in ways that don’t match his apparent age, like being too young for certain movements?

[22] The new little brother moves, but he can’t speak words. He makes sounds that hurt my ears. Mom gave birth to someone who isn’t human. She’s being deceived.

• [23] Feel free to write whatever you want to write. It seems like quite a few people are reading this.

[25] I’ve seen my friend’s little one before. That one also grabbed my hand, and it hurt.

[28] The new little brother is very strong. He does painful things.

• [26] >>1 How old are you? Since you have a 15-year-old brother, you must be in high school or older, right? Still, your writing seems a bit unsteady. If you’re confused, please try to calm down and write clearly.
• [30] Just confirming, you hadn’t heard anything about a new little brother being born, right? When you say “he moves,” does he look like a baby?

[31] I’m a third-year high school student. I couldn’t get into a very good high school. I’m not confused right now. But when the new little brother is around, I get confused.

• [32] “Doesn’t match” means they aren’t suitable or fitting. To give an extreme example, would it be easier to imagine if I said a newborn baby was running?

[36] >>32 The new little brother can’t run. The 15-year-old, Hajime, can. So can I. But suddenly, he’s just in the room.

[34] The new little brother doesn’t have a name. My other brother’s name is Hajime. The way he moves looks very similar to my friend’s little one. It’s tiring to move the scrollbar down. Isn’t there an easier way?

• [35] >>34 How about pressing the ⇩ arrow in the bottom right?
• [33] Does your brother use a cloning technique?

[39] >>35 Thank you. >>33 He’s not using a cloning technique. Hajime is always here.

• [38] No name… he is human, right? Why don’t you ask your parents when he was born and why they haven’t given him a name?

[42] >>38 I don’t talk to Mom much. I’ll ask Dad. Please wait a moment.

• [40] Why don’t you try asking your parents once?
• [41] “Mom went to the hospital recently, so he’s the new little brother. But, even though he’s my brother, he moves.” ↑ I don’t really understand this. Did your mom give birth to the new brother at the hospital? If so, it would be natural for him to be there.

[46] >>41 The new little brother is scary, so I try to avoid seeing him as much as possible.

[45] Sorry for the wait. If I asked Dad any more questions, I thought I might get taken to the hospital again, so I stopped.

• [47] What did you ask him? Please write his answer too.

[50] >>47 I asked Dad to tell me the “new little brother’s” name. I said, “Not Hajime, the other one,” but he didn’t understand. Even though he pays so much attention to him all the time.

• [48] It might be unpleasant, but could you tell us more details about the new little brother? That might be one way to figure things out.

[53] >>48 The new little brother is small and looks very much like my friend’s little one. He’s very strong. He does painful things to me. The other day, he pushed me down the stairs.

[49] The new little brother was just in the living room, but suddenly he’s in my room. What should I do?

• [51] Does the little brother teleport?
• [54] So there are times when you perceive him being there and times when you don’t.
• [56] I don’t understand “looks very much like my friend’s little one.” Are you talking about the “Little Old Man”?

• The “Little Old Man” (Chiisai Ossan) is a figure from Japanese urban legends, described as a tiny, fairy-like being resembling a middle-aged man.

[60] >>56 He’s not an old man. There’s someone who looks like the new little brother at my friend’s house too.

• [68] >>1 Just so you know, the “Little Old Man” >>56 mentioned is from an urban legend that was famous for a while. I think it was a type of fairy.
• [57] Has anything happened recently involving a small child where you might have done something to be resented?
• [61] >>57 Are you suggesting something like a living ghost (ikiryō)?

• An “ikiryō” is a concept in Japanese spiritual beliefs, where strong emotions (like resentment or attachment) from a living person manifest as a spirit separate from the body, affecting others.

• [63] >>61 Something like that. Or maybe a child that >>1 interacted with and something happened… Sorry if this offends you.

[65] >>57 I’ve always been scared of little kids, so I try to avoid them.

• [58] So he’s different from a pet too. Can you take a picture of the little brother? You don’t have to show his face or anything.

[66] >>58 It’s not like I want to see him and he appears. He’s just suddenly there. I never want to see him in the first place.

• [59] Let me summarize about the brother: ・Very strong ・Does harmful things to >>1 ・Suddenly appears in her room (teleportation?) ・Just born? Let me know if anything is wrong or missing.

[69] >>59 That’s easy to understand. It would have been clearer if I did that from the start. Sorry.

[79] Oh, >>59, please add “makes sounds that hurt my ears” to your summary. Please.

• [87] >>59 Also, his shape changes every time she sees him (or meets him?), right?
• [62] Is the one at your friend’s house just your friend’s sibling, and they just happen to look similar? Also, is the one at your friend’s house also strange?

[71] >>62 My friend isn’t strange. The little person at my friend’s house looks similar.

• [76] >>71 Just to confirm: when you say “little person,” do you mean someone who looks like an adult but is short? Or someone who looks like a 1 or 2-year-old child? If it’s the latter, please use the term “little child.”

[82] >>76 His shape changes every time I see him, so I can’t say for sure. I’m sorry. But he’s a boy.

• [83] >>82 Okay, so a boy whose shape (appearance) changes every time you see him, correct?

[86] >>83 Thank you. That’s very clear.

• [67] You don’t meet with little people (children)… Then what could it be…?
• [77] Since you call him a brother, maybe in appearance he’s small, and, well, perhaps not an old man.
• [93] Please go to the hospital quickly.

[97] >>93 I hate the hospital because they ask the same things over and over. Plus, lots of little brothers show up there.

• [99] >>97 Then please go to a different hospital.

[105] >>99 I live in the countryside, so I think that would be difficult. Does the new little brother not appear at other hospitals?

• [106] >>105 I don’t know. We’re getting off-topic, aren’t we?
• [96] Why do you perceive “it” – something that appears suddenly, changes shape every time you see it, makes ear-splitting sounds, and does things to you that feel like great strength – as your brother? You said there’s a similar one at your friend’s house too, right? “It.”

[100] >>96 Because Mom plays with him. Sorry if that’s confusing.

• [98] About the brother: ・Very strong ・Does harmful things to >>1 ・Suddenly appears in her room (teleportation?) ・Just born ・Makes sounds that hurt her ears (screams?) ・The mysterious brother has no name ・Father won’t answer questions about the brother (but the father acknowledges the brother’s existence and sometimes interacts with him)
• [102] Isn’t it strange that there are also “new little brothers” at the hospital?
• [103] >>102 And there are many of them, right? >>1, could your perception be altered somehow?

[108] >>102 >>103 There are about 5 of them.

• [104] Can you take a picture? I thought this was about seeing things others can’t see. Regarding him changing shape every time you see him, does his face change? Does his height change? Also, does the mysterious brother wear clothes?

[112] >>104 His face is kind of fuzzy, so I can’t really tell. I’m sorry. He does wear clothes. His clothes change every time too.

• [107] Replacing “brother” with “man” doesn’t make sense either. >>1, are you taking any medication?

[117] >>107 I used to take medicine I got from the hospital until elementary school. Um, I’m not doing drugs or any dangerous medicine. Really.

• [113] You yourself wrote earlier that you might “get taken to the hospital again.” Before this new little brother issue, haven’t you been seeing a psychosomatic doctor or psychiatrist for hallucinations or auditory hallucinations? Instead of jumping to the conclusion that it’s occult, why not try to face yourself properly?
• [119] What about meals for this new brother? Does he eat normally?

[122] Um, I don’t know the type of hospital, sorry.

• [126] Your Mom plays with him, right? I see… I’m sorry for writing “it.” My apologies.

[132] >>126 Please don’t apologize. It’s my fault for being unclear.

[127] I’ve seen Mom feeding him maybe twice. I remember being scared because he glared at me.

• [128] >>127 Do you know what kind of food she was feeding him?

[133] >>128 She was giving him her own sushi. Engawa with shiso on it.

• “Engawa” is a type of sushi topping, typically the fatty, muscular part near the fin of flounder or halibut. “Shiso” is a type of Japanese herb.

• [139] >>133 In that case, he’s not a baby, is he? >>1, are your memories perhaps confused?
• [134] If he really is your brother, maybe you should try talking to a friend instead of the hospital?
• [135] I’d like you to ask your dad, “What’s my diagnosis?” but it’s late now, isn’t it? You seem to have your days and nights mixed up. Please go to sleep soon. Good night.

[136] Help me.

[137] The new little brother showed up again. Even though I have tomorrow off.

• [142] >>137 If you’re okay, can you tell us what it’s like?

[146] >>142 My computer is on the kotatsu table, and he suddenly appeared at the edge of the table. I missed taking a picture.

• A “kotatsu” is a traditional Japanese heating appliance: a low table with a heater underneath and a quilt draped over it to trap warmth.

• [143] That’s scary.
• [145] On the kotatsu?
• [147] You know what a baby is, right? This brother isn’t a baby?

[152] He’s not a baby. My head hurts, so I’m going to sleep for today. If you all are still here tomorrow, I’d like to talk more. Thank you for today.

• [153] >>1 Are you okay?
• [154] Please take care, anyway.
• [155] So, does that mean he’s something like the “Little Old Man”? Good night.
• [164] It’s best to take stories like this seriously, right?

[170] Good morning.

• [171] >>170 Good morning.
• [173] >>1 How are you feeling? Is your headache gone?

[175] >>173 Yes! All better now! Looking back at my posts from yesterday, my vocabulary was a mess… I’m so sorry.

• [176] Where is the “old brother” now?

[179] >>176 Old brother? You mean Hajime! School’s out, so it seems he went to hang out at a friend’s house.

• [178] Oh, right. How does your 15-year-old brother treat the new little brother (the small one)?

[180] >>178 Hajime doesn’t seem to like the little brother much. I’ve never seen him talk to him. Kotokoto-san doesn’t show up where my brother [Hajime] is!

[181] Looking at what I wrote yesterday, I think my mental state was a bit unstable then. Sorry about that…! That’s why I didn’t mention Kotokoto-san’s name~

• [182] Is “Kotokoto-san” the new little brother (the small one)? So Kotokoto-san doesn’t appear when your brother [Hajime] is around?
• [183] My mistake. “Kotokoto-san,” right? Did you name him that?

[185] >>182 >>183 He’s had the name since he first appeared! But why didn’t I mention his name yesterday??

• [189] >>185 Do you mean you knew the name from the very first time he appeared? Or did you learn it because your mother called him that? Was there some hint about Kotokoto-san that helped you know the name?

[192] >>189 When Kotokoto-san talks to me, he says “Kotokoto” in a slightly high voice. That’s why! Pretty simple-minded, huh…

• [190] >>185 You didn’t just not mention the name, you said “he doesn’t have a name.”

[196] >>190 Dad was worried about me when I woke up too, so maybe I was just a bit emotionally unstable yesterday?

• [184] Please tell us more about your illness too.

[187] >>184 My illness? It seems I have a stutter and mild schizophrenia. It’s really mild!

• [186] Huh? What? So, in the end, the new little brother isn’t a ghost or anything?

[188] >>186 He’s not a ghost! He’s family~ There are lots of others too! They all look similar, but there’s also a tall one, about 4 meters tall!

• [191] >>188, yesterday you said you thought of him as family (the new little brother) because your mother was playing with him, but if there’s a “Noppo-san” (Tall one) too, doesn’t that make the term “new little brother” strange?

[193] >>191 Noppo-san has been here since I was born, so he’s like an older brother.

• [198] Huh? Didn’t you say you didn’t have an older brother?

[202] >>198 Really? Wow, yesterday’s me was pretty messed up. Forgetting my own family…

• [197] Hmm? So, you mean it’s all hallucinations?

[200] >>197 No, he’s really here! I can talk to him and everything!

• [201] The 4-meter “Noppo-san” really exists!?

[205] >>201 He’s always curled up in the corner of my room, so I don’t know exactly, but he’s probably about that tall!

• [204] It’s long, but here’s a summary from yesterday and today:
• About the brother:
• Yesterday:
• Very strong
• Does hurtful things to >>1
• Suddenly appears in her room (teleportation?)
• Newborn (but doesn’t look like a baby)
• Makes sounds that hurt her ears (screams?)
• Mysterious brother has no name
• Father won’t answer questions about him
• A boy whose appearance changes every time she sees him
• Recognizes him as a brother because her mother plays with the little one
• Can take pictures of the new brother (little one)
• There are about 5 of them at the hospital
• Face is fuzzy, can’t make it out clearly
• Clothes change every time
• Saw mother feeding him about twice (Engawa with shiso that her mother was eating) -> meaning not a baby
• Glared at her, felt scared
• Around 1:53 AM, new brother (little one) suddenly appeared on the kotatsu (edge of the table)
• Today:
• New brother’s (little one’s) name is Kotokoto-san
• Doesn’t know if he likes him or not, but Kotokoto-san doesn’t talk to her brother [Hajime]
• Kotokoto-san doesn’t appear when her brother [Hajime] is around
• Recognizes him not as a ghost, but as family
• There are many others, including a tall one (“Noppo-san”) about 4m tall
• Kotokoto-san says “Kotokoto” in a high-pitched voice when talking to >>1
• Noppo-san has apparently been around since >>1 was born (>>1 sees him as an older brother)
• [207] There are quite a few contradictions between yesterday and today. Are you okay?

[208] Huh? Kotokoto-san doesn’t do anything painful to me, you know? My ears don’t hurt either.

• [211] >>208, but you said that yesterday?

[212] What? What? No way~ The only time my family ever hurt me was when I arm-wrestled with Hajime…

• [213] Does having Kotokoto-san around cause any problems in your daily life?

[219] >>213 It’s a bit inconvenient when someone big like Noppo-san is suddenly in front of the door and I can’t get out.

• [215] What is this feeling, like having the rug pulled out from under me all the time? Is it like, just when you think “Ah, I get it,” it immediately becomes confusing again?

[220] >>215 I’m sorry. This happens sometimes. That’s why I can never turn in my school assignments properly either.

• [217] Hmm? Well, it is contradictory…

[221] I was surprised reading the summary everyone put together, but it seems like when my mind gets unstable, I forget about my family. Maybe that’s why they get angry and do hurtful things.

[223] If I want to see Kotokoto-san, he comes, and he’s on my lap right now! Noppo-san is still sleeping.

• [224] So, is this correct: When you become emotionally unstable, you lose your memory (forget your family) → and because of that, your family (Kotokoto-san or Noppo-san?) gets angry and does hurtful things? Also, yesterday you said that even if you wanted to see him, he wouldn’t come, and would just suddenly appear in your room?

[225] Oh, right! I’m good at drawing! I’ll draw Noppo-san for you! My dad even said he looks like him!

[229] Noppo-san!

• [234] >>229, Is “Noppo-san’s” entire body black?
• [309] >>229, wait a minute, this thing has four eyes, right? Onee-chan, does Noppo-san have four eyes and a pitch-black mouth?

[312] >>309 Probably. I’ve never checked properly, so maybe they’re noses.

• [236] Huh?

[237] He’s black~! I’m worried because he doesn’t move much.

• [238] >>237, Try poking him gently with a needle.

[240] >>238 I wouldn’t do something so painful!! He’ll bleed, you know.

• [243] What are Kotokoto-san and Noppo-san’s favorite foods? Please tell us your favorite food too, Onee-chan.

[247] >>243 I’ve only ever seen Kotokoto-san eat engawa. Noppo-san doesn’t move. But Ketaketa-san eats a ton. He seems to like white rice.

• [244] Are they really family?

[250] Oh, my favorite food is fried rice! I forgot to say.

[253] This is bad. Kotokoto-san won’t come even when I call him anymore.

• [254] Hang in there!
• [255] We’re rooting for you, Onee-chan.
• [256] If he were a little kid, sometimes they don’t come because they’re whimsical… But it feels too strange to call them family…

[257] This is weird. Ever since I started writing here, nobody talks to me anymore. Kotokoto-san was just on my lap a little while ago.

[260] Noppo-san isn’t here either. Ketaketa-san isn’t here today because he’s at work, though.

• [261] Either they’re trying not to bother you because you’re doing something else, or they don’t like it and are avoiding contact as much as possible…
• [263] What’s going on? Are they really your family? You’re saying different things today compared to yesterday?
• [313] How old are you, Onee-chan?

[317] >>313 I’m 17.

• [320] Let’s have her draw Kotokoto-san too. She’s quite good, isn’t she?
• [321] Oh, and I’d like to see a drawing of Ketaketa-san too. It somehow reminds me of the manga “Fuan no Tane” (Seeds of Anxiety).

[331] Hello! Is anyone still reading?

• [332] Yes.
• [333] Watching.
• [335] Watching.

[336] Anyway, listen to today’s summary! Kotokoto-san and the others are gone! (Panicking) Friend calls asking to hang out! (Go hang out) Kotokoto-san was at my friend’s house! Tokotoko-san was there too!

[337] But still, back home, it’s just Dad, Mom, and Hajime.

[338] My family told me not to talk to them at my friend’s house, so I couldn’t. Tokotoko-san didn’t say anything either. Oh, Kotokoto-san is the brother who appears anywhere, and Tokotoko-san is the Kotokoto-san look-alike who’s only at my friend’s house! Sorry if I already said this.

[339] The room feels so big. It usually felt small because Noppo was always here. Fuwafuwa isn’t here either. I feel lonely.

• [340] Cute (scary)

[343] >>340 I’m glad you think it’s cute! My family isn’t scary.

[341] This is the first time they haven’t come when I called, so I’m surprised. They were at my friend’s house, and it seems like they’re everywhere except my house now. I think they hate me now. They looked angry.

• [342] Given the hallucinations and the personality changes since yesterday, just as she herself mentioned, it seems like schizophrenia.

[347] >>342 It’s really a mild case! The person in charge told me so! Also, I don’t think hallucinations are part of my symptoms. I’m not sure though…

• [344] Please draw.
• [345] Please draw Fuwafuwa-san and Kotokoto-san.

[348] Okay, I’ll draw them! Give me a little time. Their shapes change every time, so it might not be perfectly accurate, but I’ll draw them in the form I often see.

[352]

[354] The thing on the right is the bed. The one on the left is Noppo-san. Can you tell?

[355]

[356] This is my masterpiece of Kotokoto-san!!! He’s cute. I want him to come back soon.

[357] Should I draw the other family members too?

• [358] Please do.

[359] Slime-san. He’s often in the bathroom.

• [360] Oh, how cute.

[363] >>360 He is cute, right! But none of them are home now. Tomorrow, on my way to school, I’ll go to the back mountain where lots of family members are. It’ll be sad if they’re not there either.

[361] It’s really lonely with no one in the room. I want to hang out with Hajime.

• [362] Maybe you should keep a diary or something.

[364] >>362 A diary is probably impossible for me. I can’t keep doing the same thing consistently.

[367] I was surprised the first time I went to the back mountain. It was the first time so many family members were gathered together, but no matter how many times I go, Mom, Dad, and Hajime are never there. But I don’t want to go in the summer because there are soooo many mosquitoes. There are really a lot!

• [369] its ok lots r on bak mountain waiting 4 u
• [370] How about sketching Kotokoto-san and Tokotoko-san and drawing a manga? Like a picture diary.

[371] >>370 I’ll try my best to keep it up. Sorry, this isn’t really occult at all, is it? I think yesterday, for some reason I don’t understand, I was panicking and thought my family were ghosts or something, so I posted here.

• [374] That’s interesting. And your drawing is good.

[375] >>374 Thank you! It’s the only thing I’m good at. I think they’re around you too, 374! Let me know if you see my family.

• [376] Your drawings are really good~. Kotokoto-san and Slime-san are cute.
• [377] Scary (cute)

[379] >>377 They’ve been around since way back, so they’re not scary. They’re cute. My therapist told me it’s better not to ask people around me about them, but I don’t really like my therapist (lol)

• [382] The reason it’s better not to ask too much: ↑ Most people can’t even perceive your family like Tokotoko-san, Kotokoto-san, Noppo-san, or Slime-san. So, there’s a risk they might make fun of you or call you strange. Isn’t this probably what the doctor/therapist meant?
• [384] It’s Kotokoto-san, not your brother, right??
• [386] >>384 The definition of ‘older brother’ or ‘younger brother’ is probably based on whether they were there from the beginning or appeared later.

[395] I’m back. If anyone’s still watching, I’ll just talk like I’m talking to myself~.

• [398] Go ahead.

[400] >>398 Thank you. This morning, I went to the mountain where lots of my family members are. Kotokoto-san was there too. Lots of other family members were there as well. But Dad wasn’t there because of work, and Mom wasn’t there because of work either. Hajime had already gone to school. But nobody talked, and they didn’t follow me. Are they still angry, I wonder?

[401] I forgot to take pictures, sorry. I’ll take some tomorrow.

[403] It seems like not many people are around yet, so I’ll do my homework while I wait. If you have any questions, I’ll answer them.

• [410] Welcome back.
• [411] Welcome back, Onee-chan.
• [412] Next time, please title it “My Brother Disappeared.”

[414] I was taking a bath. >>412 He won’t disappear~. Kotokoto-san was in the entryway just now!

• [413] Don’t you have a sister? Seems like there might be one with two heads too.

[415] >>413 Yes, I do! There aren’t many, though, she’s in the zashiki room. Always inside the shoji screen. She’s Perapera-san.

• “Zashiki” refers to a traditional Japanese room with tatami mat flooring, often used for guests.
• “Shoji” is a traditional Japanese sliding door or window panel made of a wooden lattice covered with translucent paper.

[416] A little while ago, I was going to go outside to take pictures of the mountain before tomorrow, but Dad got mad at me. He got even angrier when I told him I was going to take pictures. He got mad when I showed the pictures to my friend before, too. My dad is small.

[417] But, he’s in the entryway. I’m so happy. But he won’t come inside from the entryway. There are still only a few.

[418] Noppo-san, Kirakira-san, and Perapera-san aren’t here yet either. Still just a few.

[419] Nikoniko-san is in the entryway now. But it seems like he won’t come in… He won’t come even when I call him. I did apologize properly.

• [420] What did your dad say? I’d expect him to be worried if his 17-year-old daughter tried to go out at this hour, though.

[422] >>420 He said to me, “If you’re planning to take pictures again, stop it. And don’t show them to your friends either.” Usually, I go out whenever I want and he doesn’t say anything!

• [425] This sounds like a disorder triggered by some kind of PTSD. What was the triggering event? Was it an assault? I want to know the reason this happened. I want to know the triggering event.
• [426] (Inner thought: Maybe the dad is actually one of Kotokoto-san’s kind… Maybe in reality, >>1 lives alone…)
• [434] Your handwriting is neat, Onee-chan. Anyway, I’d like you to draw Kirakira-san.

[437]

• [438] Kirakira-san?

[439] >>438 Yes. I forgot to mention her name.

• [448] >>439, thanks for drawing her. Kirakira-san is beautiful. Can you actually have normal conversations with Kotokoto-san and the others?

[483] >>448 Thank you. When I first posted the photo, people said they couldn’t see it, and that really scared me. And when I draw pictures of them, people ask if they’re alive, and that’s very scary too. My family… they are alive, right?

• [484] >>483, that’s a very difficult question, but I think they are alive.
• [458] So, Onee-chan, could you try drawing your dad, mom, Hajime, and anyone else currently living with you in the house, all together in one picture?

[465] >>458 Okay, I understand. But when I showed a drawing to my art teacher in elementary school, they made me redo it, so I’m not very confident.

[467] It seems difficult to fit them all in one picture, so is it okay if I draw them in the order of Dad, Mom, and Hajime?

[468] I already drew Kirakira-san, Perapera-san, and Kotokoto-san, so is that okay? I have to draw them while looking, because their shapes change. I’ll draw the family members who are in the living room right now.

[469]

[471]

• [473] Hey………… hey!
• [474] Only Hajime looks alive…..!
• [475] Oh…… No, maybe only Hajime… Onee-san, could you give us a self-portrait if you don’t mind?

[476] They’re all alive. I can talk to them.

[477] For the self-portrait, is just the face okay? My shape is similar to Hajime’s.

• [478] That’s fine.

[480] This is me.

• [479] This might sound strange, but your father and mother always have the same shape, right?

[481] >>479 My dad changes. His size changes. But sometimes, his shape is similar to Hajime’s. Mom doesn’t change.

• [486] Sorry for worrying you. It’s okay, your family is there.

[488] Why can’t you see them even though they’re here? Can you not see me either?

[489] My illness isn’t serious, it’s mild. Am I the strange one? Is it normal that everyone else can’t see them? If it’s not normal, I’ll get scolded.

• [491] >>489, don’t worry about it. Like they say, “Everyone is different, and that’s okay.”

[490] But I’m very scared. It’s not an illness.

• [496] This is worrying. Is it possible that you were abused by your parents and your perception became distorted?
• [504] I don’t understand.
• [507] What is this, is it real? Is Onee-chan gone now?
• [509] Come back—

[522] Everyone, it’s been a while. Since then, a lot has happened, and my dad found out about this thread. After that, I was taken to the hospital, and because I said things I shouldn’t have again, I’ve been going to the hospital every day for a while now. I can still see my family. But the person in charge said they aren’t real. But they said it’s okay to see Dad, Mom, and Hajime. I don’t understand. Even though I can see everyone, the person in charge says I shouldn’t see anyone other than my family. I am seeing my family.

[523] Kotokoto-san, Tokotoko-san, Kirakira-san, Fuwafuwa-san, Noppo-san, Slime-san, Katakata-san, Tsurutsuru-san, Petapeta-san, Towatowa-san, Gafugafu-san, Kawakawa-san, Petsupetsu-san, Katokato-san, Takutaku-san, Pechipechi-san, Techitechi-san, Nobonobo-san, Puyopuyo-san, Itoito-san, Hakuhaku-san, Shuashua-san, Hatsuhatsu-san, Pigapiga-san, am I not supposed to see them?

• [531] I feel an incredible amount of negative energy from >>523.

[524] I was told I’m not allowed to look at this site anymore. Dad is coming home at 6. I hate this. I don’t understand. Does the person in charge hate me?

• [525] Aren’t they trying to help you get better?
• [529] Your dad has such a cute face (in the drawing), but he seems quite strict about things, doesn’t he?
• [532] Will Onee-chan not come back anymore?
• [533] >>532, She probably can’t. It seems like she’s being monitored by the hospital staff.
• [536] Schizophrenia is literally a disease that involves a lack of self-identity… This thread turned into a gathering where everyone was watching over >>1’s hallucinations, auditory hallucinations, and illustrations in a friendly way.
• [539] Schizophrenia is amazing. You couldn’t write something like this even if you tried to imitate it.
• [542] The one who isn’t really there is >>1. The new little brother is a purifier. The “hurtful things” are the purification process. Thank you.
• [551] >>542, that’s scary.
• [544] Are they imaginary friends? Little kids often play with invisible friends, you know.
• [549] Somehow, it reminds me of “Mushishi”… That also has a similar feel… Ah, I don’t think what Onee-chan is seeing is necessarily completely non-existent.
• [550] Onee-chan’s battle is just beginning!! The End
• [552] Is it over already? It was quite interesting.
• [557] What is this thread… It started with the impression that it’s quite occult, then I thought the participants on the occult board are pretty kind, and in the end, my chest feels kind of tight. Anyway, I’m rooting for Onee-chan.
