Uzumaki Episode 2 recap

Uzumaki Episode 2 saw Kirie’s own hair also undergo a bizarre transformation, growing rapidly and curling into spirals that hypnotized onlookers. A confrontation arose when another student, Kyoko, jealous of Kirie’s attention, grew her hair similarly.

Kirie was saved by Shuichi, who cut her hair. However, Kyoko’s hair drained her life energy. Elsewhere, Kirie witnessed her classmates Katayama and another student, along with a teacher, transforming into giant snails, eventually being caged. However, Katayama’s family rejected the idea of their son’s transformation.

Kirie’s classmates Kazunori and Yoriko, whose families disapproved of their love, decide to run away. When caught, they intertwined their bodies like snakes and vanished into the sea in Uzumaki Episode 2, seemingly to avoid being separated.
