Slug Season 2 Has Several Questions to Answer About the Cursed House
The Cursed House Arc brings Momo, Okarun, and Jiji to a large hill in Daija town, where Jiji was living with his parents. Because they suddenly turned ill, he was supposed to stay temporarily at Momo’s house. However, when he revealed how his house was haunted, Seiko asked Momo to deal with the ghost, believing her granddaughter could handle the case. What Seiko didn’t expect was that something far more sinister than anything they had seen before was hiding in the house.
Not only that, but the Kito family, the most powerful family in the small town and Jiji’s landlords, were hiding a major secret. They already showed their true colors and will continue to fight against Momo and her friends. By the end of the first season, Okarun and Jiji discover a secret room hidden behind a hall. A room full of talismans and strange echoes confirms there something is hidden underneath it. Meanwhile, Momo ran into unexpected trouble at the hot spring when the men of the Kito family saw her.
Not only that, but the trailer shows Jiji’s unexpected transformation. He is currently powerless, unlike Momo and Okarun. However, he seems possessed instead of gaining a powerup since he’s talking about killing all humans. Although Okarun was jealous of Jiji being Momo’s first crush, he learned to get along with his new friend on their little trip. Now, he must stop Jiji from wreaking havoc and doing something he will regret later on.
