I guess it was stolen too.
Anyway, if we condone all sorts of 80's revivals just because they're coming from Hei, next we'd have to accept shoulder pads (on Suoh!) and the like, so no- no way, he needs to re-thing his fashion sense, or lack thereof

imagine that suou next episode with shoulder pads and a perm i definitely cannot condone that. but Hei on the other hand is just a bit before his time. but really when Hei gets his powers back i want to see his mask and black coat back.

I lolled pretty hard when I first saw that horrible purple ski jacket.

It really looks awful on him. He should have found a red one at least.

I'm trying to not imagine that, (the Suou bit) for I'm afraid what the image might do to my head :

I don't think Hei's jacket color is the problem, it's more the design of it in general... luckily it seems like he's slowly getting some sense knocked back into him!

im thinking if he clened himself up a bit more he would blend in better as well. i mean if you saw Hei as Li-Kun or Hobo Hei who would you suspect as the black reaper? the nice looking person that eats alot or the hobo lookoing creep that drinks alot.

I know!! It's a bit wrong, but that's actually how a lot of human reasoning goes. If you look like a criminal, it's bad.
But not only that, I don't know the general opinion on this, but personally, I've found hobo-Hei just some sort of comical, and not as serious development.

- not taking care of his appearance- ok that I can accept.
- but drinking while/before/after slapping up some kid? LOL! that's just TOO lame to be serious. It's so cliché, it hurts (the alcoholic dad/uncle- type of thing).
- drinking while you're fighting even?

And all that seemingly because of the loss of Yin, who isn't even dead yet? That just seems ridiculous, and is something associated with weak personalities, but I can't recall Hei ever being portrayed as such.
Especially seeing how he didn't go Hobo after the incident with Pai- and she was arguably closer to him than Yin, and so was Amber I assume.
Now, you could say it is because he lost someone again, but while I agree that might make him bitter, angry or something, going hobo-alcoholic seems like a parody, not real development.

Or maybe that's just me, and I'm not getting the deep meaning behind this

'The usual suspects' anyone?

I guess it is a bit cliché but i don't think it's that far fetched, if a person is depressed it's not uncommon for them to find comfort in alcohol, food, sleeping etc. Besides I'd say Hei has the right to be a bit down after all the shit he's been through.
Also i prefer Hobo Hei, he's a lot more "human" if you will.

There's no guarantee Hei's going to get back his powers y' know. Particularly since we are left with 2-3 eps with things heating up towards the end.

Well to get close enough to kill Yin, he's safer without them. He's been good this season without them. The body count is definitely lower without his powers and we get more fight scenes.
