Vena: was thinking Mykage just outright misled Izumo, or didn't tell him. Like it's a supposed to be a secret that Izumo had a kid with Alisia, so Izumo's not going to talk to Mykage about it ("oh hey, your wild boy, is he that kid I wasn't supposed to have with Alisia..."). Clearly Alisia didn't bring her kid with her, and it's not like Alisia's in a position to say anything, either, ). So then Mykage can introduce Kagura as some wild child he found wandering around near his fortress of fabulous solitude ("his mother must've disappeared with the other women, it's so sad..."), and Izumo never made the connection. (Plus, no one ever expects their long-lost son to be a jerky beastman .).

I really like that scenario, which means it probably won't happen. But I like it.

And on the other topic:

Spoiler for Kagura/Mikono again:

It comes across like in "reality" she likes Amata, is afraid of Kagura, and so on, but keeps subconsciously slipping into a very different, almost dazed outlook, and has to snap out of it (again and again). I'm not taking sides on shipping per se, but if that's the way it's going to get played it means the she has to solve the issue by actively reconciling both sentiments. Should be interesting, especially since she feels like she has to apologize...really want to know what that's about.
