As soon as Kanon's body disappeared, I was all "Oh I see what's going on here. There's no 'magic' happening here. NO MAGIC BUT LIEESSS."
I thought the Natsuhi scene was actually 100% fair. It's so blatantly wish-fulfillment for her that Kinzo's personality is immediately suspect. Honestly the very instant the slightest whiff of Kinzo-is-dead got to my nostrils I immediately looked at that scene and said "Yeah, he's probably dead, he'd never actually say that stuff."

Granted, to know Kinzo's personality to know that Natsuhi is contradicting it we needed to see all those other scenes of Kinzo where he's establishing his personality... none of which happened either. Damn.

I submit that a murder was committed in 1996.
This murder was a "copycat" crime inspired by our tales of 1986.
This story is a redacted confession.
