Question from a Reader:
Why are most of the offerings for Ai Mogami just plastic bottles? Is there a special meaning among the fans?
Considering Ai Mogami’s Offerings
Recently, I’ve heard discussions about how most of Ai Mogami’s offerings consist of plastic bottles. It’s clear that there are a lot of drinks involved. While some fans may be offering them seriously,
overall, it feels a bit casual. When you see partially drunk plastic bottles, it makes you want to question, “Is this really an offering?”
Reasons: Affordability and Convenience
I think the prevalence of plastic bottles can be attributed to their affordability and convenience. For the buyers, it’s hassle-free, and they can easily bring them along. It also has that social media appeal. Lately, it seems to be a trend for fans to visit the scene and report back, saying, “I’ve made an offering!” which may contribute to a somewhat lighthearted approach. Looking back, when I was working at a judicial scrivener’s office and studying law, I often contemplated the “value of things.” The choice of offerings reflects the feelings and thoughts of the person making them.
The Influence of Crows and Reality at the Accident Scene
Another critical point is the risk of the food being disturbed. If crows or other animals get to the offerings, all that effort goes to waste. It makes sense that drinks are more common at accident scenes. Considering the physical risks, beverages may indeed be the safest option. What sticks with me is a news incident I saw where a cockroach trap was placed as an offering for the victim. The humor in that made me feel a complex mix of emotions. It made me realize that the meaning of offerings can sometimes turn into laughter.
Lastly, I’d Love to Hear Everyone’s Opinions
So, what do you all think about these offerings? For fans of Ai Mogami, what feelings do you have when making your offerings? Are you pouring your sentiments into them, or is it just a trend? I believe there are various opinions out there. Please share your experiences and thoughts in the comments. I want to learn more perspectives through these small stories.
