The most iconic—and terrifying—trait of my new body is its instability. If a Prinny is thrown, it explodes. This is the ultimate indignity. In any other story, the protagonist’s body is a temple; here, it is a grenade. To look at this through a philosophical lens, the Prinny explosion represents the total loss of autonomy.

It strips away the ego, forcing every soul—no matter how proud they were in life—to speak with the same subservient cadence. It is the ultimate equalizer in the pits of the Netherworld.
