I also wonder why Gai wasn't insane and how came he didn't die when Mana exploded.
The little infected boy Shu had to kill said he felt like he went crazy once he got the virus.
Mana was Mana.
Gai lived with the virus for ten years, and his mind is still clear when we meet him. We could assume Inori's blood helped, but when Mana started showing the first signs of "second personality", she didn't look too deeply infected.
Also, when Mana exploded, Shu survived because he was special, but what about Gai, Shu's living shield? How come lots of people died even though they were miles away, but a small wounded boy right next to the center of events only got a trace of infection which didn't even affect him at once (later he looks normal when he leaves Shu)?
Dammit he's dead like twenty times over now and he's still the most interesting character in the show.
re: alien theory, I think so too. It seemed like a potential hive mind with Mana as a hive queen. Inori even said she heard Gai saying thank you as he died, but she couldn't have heard it--Mana heard it before she followed him. So, Inori had a mind connection to Mana?
Or--is Mana actually still alive, as if she has been "downloaded" into Inori's body?
