Hello, everyone.
I wanted to let you know how my
research has been going.

This concerns those Shadows that have
been appearing during full moons.
I want you to listen closely;
it might be hard to follow.
Shadows can be divided into 12
categories, according to their
characteristics.
This, we've known for a while.
It's like their class or order.
...Now, I've classified the special
Shadows we've seen so far, and...
It's simply fascinating!

MSG_003
Oh, sorry. ...Ahem.
Those four Shadows belonged to
Categories I through IV, in order
of their appearance!
They may have looked different than
the more common ones, but the
classification scheme still applies.

That's exactly right, Fuuka!
You're quite sharp.

...That's a good question, and that's
what we haven't figured out yet:
their motive.
They don't kill their prey;
they feed on their minds.
It can be considered predation, but
is it really? Is there an underlying
intent behind their behavior?
The purpose of the Shadows as
a whole... That's what we need to
consider.

But, no matter what, we still have to

According to the data, each one has been
