In this episode Ginko visits an island where he discovers that people are getting 'reborn' there. When someone is about to die they are brought to a certain place in the ocean where some kind of glowing mushi exist and when they die these mushi take their bodies apart or something. I'm not sure if I remember correctly but I think a woman related to that dead person has to drink some of that water and then gets pregnant a month later. The child will have the same DNA, basically, as the deceased but no memories of their 'previous' life. It is a rather creepy, weird but also sad episode which shows that the island has grown kind of addicted to this method and is scared to just let people go....it's also explained that the reborn person while having the same DNA and maybe even developing similar behaviourism are their own person and suffer under the expectation that they are their former self.

In the focus of this episode is a mother and her child, which she has trouble loving and connecting with because she is creeped out by how much that girl looks and acts like her dead mother. And she basically can't come to terms with the fact that she is her own mother's mother now....

Anyhow...I guess OP just wants to say that the thought of that kind of rebirth disturbs her deeply and she'd rather die

OP
Sorry for the minimal secret, I was pretty sleep deprived and due to timezone I can only come here now.

Reincarnation something I'm personally interested in and believe, but reincarnation to me is a new beginning. To be reborn with no memories of who I was and to continue living as some dead person everyone around me expect me to be is truly very disturbing. The couple in this shot has the wife dying before their wedding and the husband has her reincarnated to be together again. While it does sound very heartwarming and the thought that you can be with your loved one whom you were suddenly seperated from is great, if it was me I would freak out and doubt my own existence. How can I be sure I am who they say I am? Am I supposed to think of the person taking care of me after being reborn as a child as my lover or children and unconditionally love them again? Am I even human anymore after being reborn by an unknown thing with unnatural power? I know I think about existential matters too much, in the context of the show it makes sense how the villagers can accept this and be happy, if I was alive at the time I probly would too. Ironically it's a concept I'm interested in and love seeing explored but if applied to me I'd rather die in regret than living in doubt of myself. Ironically since I love reincarnation tropes.

tldr; I think too much about myself.

That is a really sad and scary concept.
