#though hoyo is really hammering in how much misha's enthusiasm about the astral express

[its-dark-girl]

is it just me or does misha's eyes(or eye since we only see one) looks.. off?

they're purple, which isn't a bad colour if you ask me, but there's one thing:

the colour purple isn't found anywhere else on his design, which is kinda odd isn't it? it stands out very heavily, unless its meant to match his sleeves since both look very similar in the splash art, or the cloth thing in his pocket. maybe its purple to offset the heavy amount of blue in his design but i don't think so. unless it actually is purple because of his design.

there's also the fact that the pupil looks like a keyhole:

or there's a keyhole over what should be his pupil. my best guess is that the secret to penacony is locked in his eyes, similar to how inuyasha's father's grave could only be accessed by the pearl in his eye. maybe the watchmakers legacy is Misha, maybe he holds the key so to speak. maybe he is the watchmaker's legacy, which explains how he's able to see clockie, but it probably goes deeper than him just being the grandchild of the watchmaker.

maybe the watchmaker made the dreamscape for Misha. maybe misha is what the watchmaker could never be? Or maybe Misha was trapped there. when we first enter the Golden Hour and A Child's Dream and we hear someone who sounds a lot like Misha calling out to whoever Mikhail is?

hoyo is definitely setting him up to be extremely plot relevant and i cant wait for the next act. i hope the meme doesn't get him next
