What is the empty space phenomenon?

A battlefield beyond reality

• Manga Debut: Chapter 2
• Anime Debut: Episode 2

This event is separate from the battlefield but very similar to reality, making it in essence an alternate dimension. The Empty Space phenomenon is activated by aliens, where their prey—humans whose banana limbs they want to cut off—cannot escape them. As a kind of means and precaution, the aliens can tweak their space to allow only people with high spirituality to fall into it, making it easier to separate those with supernatural abilities and ordinary people. Generally, only aliens are seen to be able to activate the event. However, aside from their individual abilities, it seems they can also use it through advanced alien technology as Serpo mistakenly suggests that their device was malfunctioning because it contained Aira in space when they battled Momo and Okarun at their school. used Believing that Aira has no significant spiritual awareness.

What and how exactly empty space phenomena are created remains largely unexplored in the series, whether it is through alien technology or the aliens' individual abilities. However, as a site for fighting and capture, the event is so perfect that it leaves no trace to ordinary people, which undoubtedly contributed to knowing little about the existence of extraterrestrial life and serves as a “place” for which aliens hunt. Can't escape them.

The appearance of the empty space phenomenon is not the same everywhere because it depends on the original site of activation, i.e., where the aliens try to catch their prey. During the second episode where it was introduced, the Flatwoods monster alien that attacked Ayase's residence used the layout of the residence as a foundation for the space but with tweaks like walls here and there to make Ayase and Okarun unable to escape.

The role of space events in the plot

A catalyst for supernatural encounters

For fans of Jujutsu KaisenWhen dissecting the space phenomenon, Parda (curtain) comes to mind. in Jujutsu KaisenVeils are used to prevent ordinary people outside from seeing any supernatural activity taking place in the place where the veil is drawn, or to trap magicians within the veil, a function similar to that served in empty space phenomena. punishment. Aside from its primary role of preventing alien prey from escaping and ordinary humans from discovering their existence, the phenomenon of empty space serves as a plot device to allow Earth-shattering battles to take place but without any real damage to the surroundings or reality. It helps maintain the entire structure that separates ordinary humans from the supernatural.

While serving as a catalyst for supernatural encounters, the empty space phenomenon also hints at the existence of parallel dimensions with alien technologies. While the series Ghosts takes a purely supernatural approach, the phenomenon of Space Aliens encompasses both the supernatural and science fiction. However, this also raises the question of why all supernatural beings, aliens and ghosts alike are unable to use the vacuum phenomenon and why it is only limited to aliens. This is mostly possible because, unlike ghosts which can only be seen by those who are “spiritual” enough, aliens can be seen by all humans. After all, aliens are just creatures from outer space and not ghosts, which is an expression of discontent among the living in general.
