thats what i was thinking, i dont know what to trust in this show, Squealer faked it (supposedly), and then tomiko confirmed that they were "definitely" maria's bones, iirc

I think he told Satoru and Saki that he was going to fake it, but then he captured Maria and Mamoru instead. Then he removed their arm/jaw before or after having Maria give birth. I think I recall somebody saying it took a while for the people to receive the bones.

No, he just killed them off plainly. He has no use for them, he only wants the child. The bodies were the real deal.

Oh, I know that. It's just not clear whether he took the bones before he killed them or not.

He could have just, you know, accelerated the rotting of their bodies

do you know? when you cremate someone, you don't get ashes. you get bones.

they grind your bones to make them into an urn.

...what's your point?

An alternate way to produce bones that's both cost effective and efficient.

...and?

Also, I'm fairly certain he said "remains", not "bones".

Oh shit my bad. I thought you were trying to explain the bones, not the gunk.

If you would forgive my embarrassing mistake and carry on
