User blog comment:Lord Loss/Monster Hunter Theory... Blog/@comment-3528906-20120919040823

I have a theory for Brachis slime. I think that Brachi produces an enzyme or chemical that keeps it from exploding, and the moment its it taken off Brachi, it starts to heat up and explode. Also, when it is enraged, the production rate of the enzyme/chemical is reduced, but not comepletely gone, leaving the slime halfway unstable. This would explain how barrel bombs don't activate it as well.
