No blood! No bone! No ash!
The red vanguard, commonly known as “Yatagarasu”
I’ll live up to Mikoto-san’s expectations!
C’mon everyone, let’s move it!

Commentary: Today’s 100 visual is Yata! The phrase “No blood! No bone! No ash!” has already made its appearance in the side manga serializing in ARIA, but it’s kind of like HOMRA’s motto that they shout to raise their spirits. I think that Yata takes pride in these words more than anyone else.

Yata’s nickname, “Yatagarasu” makes its appearance in the extra dialogue that you can see in Animate. Yatagarasus are often (putting it roughly) tasked with guiding people, so true to his nickname, Yata is always at the frontlines as HOMRA’s vanguard. Well, in his case, he’s just running ahead rather than guiding anyone. (Yellow)

Team HOMRA
Connected by bonds stronger than blood
It’s a worthless world,
A drab world,
But that person was the one
Who changed it for me.
I never forgot what he did for me,
Not even once.

Commentary: Today’s 100 visual is Yata! In the video, he showed off the mark of “HOMRA”, a yankee group (putting it bluntly) led by Suoh. And the timing of the picture itself…is almost like he’s following up by saying “Buy the bandanna!”…I don’t think that’s a calculated move, though, considering that the video and picture are handled by different people…

People who’ve become HOMRA members will definitely have this mark somewhere on their bodies. The location changes from person to person, but sometimes the location’s the same, and sometimes they’re mirrored. We do have a location in mind for all the major characters.

Yata was a character created in a set along with another character, and they often show up next to each other in 100 visual as well. I’m putting it in vague terms, but I feel like I’m not really succeeding in hiding anything…it’s getting harder and harder for me to know just how much I can tell you…

I do want it to be a surprise when you see it in the anime, but at the same time, I’ve already spoken this much, so there might not be a point in hiding it…(Yellow)
