A Paradox

Hey all! Welcome to another edition of my crazy humor, aimed at the various manga of Yuu Watase!!

So, to explain. For those who have read at least the first volume of Arata Kangatari, you will have no problem with the comic. Those who have not yet read Arata, hurry up and read this excellent series! other wise you wont get the joke! XD

the term Doppelganger comes from German folklore, meaning spirtual double, and if one sees their "Doppelganger" it is an omen of death.
So in the series, Arata (Hinohara) can communicate with Arata (of the Hime clan) through the jewel given to him by Kotoha, when it gets wet. One can argue that the world in which Arata of the hime clan comes from is the physical representation of the spritual world, since the Gods become one with their Shou by appearing as swords, and thus this spirtual form now becomes a physical one. (or perhaps I am stretching it a bit) So when Arata cries, his fears are realized and he sees none other than Arata of the Hime clan ...
I hope you guys enjoyed the comic! ^_^'
