** This also adds an alternate reading to Maromi's final lines, telling Sagi to run. He may not be telling her to escape from the AdvancingWallOfDoom, but to keep rejecting the truth and "run away" from her problems.

* Seems I wasn't the only one with this idea. Many parallels between this show and Persona can be made, especially to P2.

See how the old man writes down his conclusions regarding what will happen next in his ‘calculations’? Notice that the first thing he concludes and is shocked to discover starts with アニ (‘ani’). The 二 (‘ni’) part looks somewhat like an equal mark, but he never completes the equation. [[spoiler:In the end, neither does Maniwa.]]

* Hell, much more than that - they also both are enigmatic figures that either stand menacingly or attack, have OffscreenTeleportation, really the early Slender Man stuff in general is reminiscent of Paranoia Agent.

In the universe of Paranoia Agent, Ayumu never entered the plot of Azumanga Daioh. And thus instead of growing up to be Osaka and having some very close friends, she became very lonely and changed her name to Tsukiko Sagi (as sort of a pseudonym for her design career).

to:

** To be fair the show pretty much states this outright. Although it's unclear to the viewer in the first episode whether or not Sagi is schizophrenic, she believes Maromi to still be with her. It's Maromi who brings up Shounen Bat after the initial "attack" as a way for Sagi to escape the responsibility for breaking her own ankle to escape the pressures at work, the same way she escaped the responsibility for what really happened to her pet. Maromi and Shounen Bat are evenly matched in size and power in the last episode until Maniwa states that Sagi is responsibile for her dog's death, at which point they merge, so on some level they're both the same defense mechanism for Sagi and therefore likely the same being.

* Maromi represents innocence ("I didn't know!") and Little Slugger represents transfer of blame ("Someone else did it/My hands were tied.")
