Ok, so I feel like a lot of people have already sensed that this boy ain’t our boy, Shiro, but I wanted to add my two cents as to why. Aside from the obvious quirks and the whole BLACK NOT ACCEPTING “SHIRO” thing…
1. Project Kuron = Project Clone ehem… so there’s that
2. In the time between Shiro’s disappearance and “The Journey” episode there is no way for his hair to grow that long that quickly.
3. I’m sure a lot of people originally saw that weird sequence in the beginning of “The Journey” as a hazy dream/hallucination as “Shiro” walked down the hallways and then sees this
But what if, now bear with me, that wasn’t a hallucination…
