Here's a list of "fUn FaCtS" about Banana Fish because I hate myself: ·Eiji never cut his hair after he left America because it was the last thing Ash touched. ·Since Eiji didn't know that Ash died, he always kept a spare room in his apartment; hoping that Ash would eventually come back to him. ·Eiji has an album of photos to took while he was staying in New York. There are slots named "A" for Ash, but there are no pictures of him. ·Ash was smiling while reading Eiji's letter as he laid dying. ·Eiji said, "Sayonara America. Sayonara New York." Notice how he didn't say goodbye to Ash? It's because Eiji planned on seeing him again. ·In episode 22, when Ash had gotten raped and was shaking, he didn't allow anyone to touch him. He was constantly on guard, knowing that he might get hurt or molested again, but the trust he had for Eiji allowed Eiji to embrace and comfort him in a hug. ·Ash decided to stay in the library while he died because he thought that he didn't deserve to be loved by anyone or to be happy. He stayed in the library for six hours as while he slowly bled out.
