If Akeuchi identity will have a plot twist this will be it

After reading the whole thing I can say that I don’t think this is true. I do agree that yuu is probably not an alien but your theory has holes in it.

Firstly given the nature of the show making Umika schizophrenic would be really strange as this show is very wholesome most of the time.

Secondly given Raimon’s nature I could never see her doing that to umika she doesn’t seem like the type of person who would do that to umika. Also I’m like 90% sure we’ve seen Yuu interact with the others a few times without umika.

We’ve even seen the whole class laugh at umika before in a earlier episode so I highly doubt the whole class is playing along with Umika.

Your theory is possible but very unlikely imo. I believe Yuu has some kind of connection with the lighthouse I’m not really sure what but maybe it’s some kind of special lighthouse.

Or who knows maybe she is actually just a alien.

@RaidenSteiner I haven't seen the episode yet. I have seen animes do something like this before. Could be a ghost or spirit. After I watch the episode later tonight, I might revise what I said.

So since there is some obvious doubt about her being an alien, episode 9 really brings up the most of what that plot twist may be. At first i thought she may been a runaway or homeless girl, but i think now is pretty clear with the last hints (of course, going by the assumption she's not an alien), Akeuchi in fact, doesn't exist and it's just in Umika's imagination, starting as a coping mechanism probably from her desperation and loneliness, this theory would explain a lot of things that just flied by in previous episodes without ever being questioned, like for first "how did an alien that just arrived on earth casually enrolled in a high school", this also can explain her telepathy power, cause of course she would understand everything umika is thinking since she's just her imagination.

So how exactly is episode 9 pushing this theory?
I guess it starts when Umika is giving up everything and then Akeuchi just casually disappears, when Umika tries to visit her house not only Akeuchi is not here, but none of her belongings are present (and as is stated later, Akeuchi didn't intended to leave so there would be no need for her to take really everything she have with her), the power of tower also cut off, which wouldn't really make sense. Akeuchi only reappears again when Umika is getting again desperate, and she kinda just appears, she wasn't here before, and from her previous stataments the only powers she poses is the forehead telepathy, so no teleportation or other gimmicks.

If we put everything togerther is making sense she's not real, and Matataki and Haruno are only playing around if they even do, to not hurt Umika. Also after competition in same episode no one talks with Akeuchi except Umika, but Mataki is directly agressive only with Haruno for losing her place in group, if anything Akeuchi never have significant interactions with anyone that doesn't directly involve Umika and never dicloses informations that Umika herself wouldnt know/show few scenes later.

Tldr Umika is/may be schizophrenic
