Ep 8. Monster Brothers

As Fushi continues to learn more about the world and the people in it, he comes across two brothers living in the woods. The two brothers, Gugu and Rean, have been shunned by their village because of their unusual appearance - one brother has a monstrous appearance due to a deformity, while the other has to wear a mask to hide his own face. Despite their circumstances, the brothers are inseparable and have a strong bond with each other.

Fushi becomes curious about the brothers and decides to spend time with them. He quickly learns that Gugu has a passion for cooking and spends most of his days in the woods, hunting for ingredients to create delicious dishes. Rean, on the other hand, spends her days doing odd jobs around the village to help support her brother. As Fushi observes the brothers, he notices an intense sadness in Gugu's eyes - a sadness that stems from being rejected by those around him because of his appearance.

As Fushi spends more time with the brothers, he begins to learn more about their past and the events that led to their current situation. He discovers that Gugu was born with a deformity that made him look like a monster, causing his mother to abandon him in the woods. It was there that he was found by Rean's parents, who took him in and raised him as their own. However, after their parents passed away, the village turned on the brothers, shunning them because of Gugu's appearance.

Throughout the episode, Fushi becomes increasingly attached to the brothers and wants to help them in any way he can. He decides to help Gugu create a dish to impress the village, hoping that it will change their minds about the brothers. However, as the day of the big presentation arrives, things don't go as planned and Gugu is once again shunned by the villagers.

As Fushi watches Gugu break down in tears, he realizes that the brothers need more than just a good meal to change the villagers' perceptions. They need acceptance and love from those around them. He becomes determined to help the brothers in any way he can, even if it means going against his own beliefs and putting himself in danger.

Overall, episode 8 of To Your Eternity is a heartwarming and emotional journey that explores the themes of acceptance, love, and the bonds of family. Through the relationship between Fushi and the brothers, viewers are reminded of the power of compassion and understanding in a world that can often be cruel and unforgiving.
