What Amagai said made it sound as though he had seen it with his own eyes, leaving Pesche and Dondochakka drenched in cold sweat.
"Mask damage? So there was a rule like that?"
Yuko stroked her chin, studying the three of them with interest before turning to Amagai. "So, the little girl's mask was merely damaged, while those two Hollows had their masks completely shattered and reverted to their original forms. Is that what you mean?"
