Boku no Kokoro no Yabai Yatsu - Vol. 1 Ch. 1 - I've Been Taken

[waltergeist]

In hindsight, is funny how much this chapter filters people.
Oh boy, if you start reading this chapter this year from now on because of the anime or whatever, just a tip: You can skip the all the extras that are not omakes, but you may lose plenty of interesting stuff that develop or may not develop in the manga itself.

Average bokuyabai fan back on their 4th reread:
But man it is honestly quite something looking back to the start of this great series

To those writing this off, give it 3 chapters instead of 1. It's got a weird start, but the main character just has chuunibyou. He's not actually homicidal, he's just a teenager.

The problem I have is that this is a fucking shitty ass slice of life romcom. I would've much preferred it to be a psychological thriller with the kid dealing with psychosis and paranoia. Would've made the series a lot more interesting instead of "lol so random!" nonsense "comedy" that's not even fucking funny. It def had the premise to be something truly great, but ended up being more generic shit.

That is what happens when you don't first read the tags and description of the manga. 🤡

Its so hard to re-read. I feel pain from seeing my boy.

in retrospective this manga is edgelord gets a gf.

 

[ShrimpShady]

The folks who got filtered by the early parts of this story got no media literacy fr 🤓

 

[ngkn92]

oh. this is one rough first chapter. The MC is kinda fucked up. Let's hope he changes for better.

 

[Dudley]

LOVE looking at the comment section and seeing people actually buying his bullshit. Personally, I think it's a very good start because it gives a heads-up that we're gonna get a quite biased POV and that it's often contrasted with reality for comedy

 

[elittio]

I've got to be real here. Didn't expect that start on the history.

 

[splatsoni]

ive been hearing lots of great stuff about this, so ill give it a shot

 

[infinity781]

I vent my lust for murder on random guards in assassin’s creed, blow people up in just cause.

the characters are shit...0/10.the story is good but their personalities are inadequate

Poor man who missed out.

It's just the 1st chapter though. Now there's 2 seasons of anime and it's among the top romcoms out there. Don't be so quick to judge.

 

[humanmanthing]

It's unfortunate with the amount of people who dropped this from chapter 1. I believe it is quite obvious that the whole "serial killer" route was not where this was going. Ah well. I would personally consider the beginning to be the worse part of this manga anyways. It only goes uphill from here.

 

[Demonaire]

REread here. I think people is exaggerating MC behavior, so yes: it's a great filter for one of the best romances nowadays.

Edit to add: Ichikawa can be anything in this chapter, but a chunnibyo. He'sn't running away from his real life, he's exteriorizing his hate for his reality due to causes still to be determined in next chapters.

 

[apstorm]

I'm here from the anime, reading from the beginning. It's great to see the start of these derps again, in the original form.

Listening to The Dangers in My Heart - All Opening and Endings Songs | OP and ED Collection while reading. These openings and endings are just so good.

should I be reading this, I heard a case of these kinda guy authoring a novel inspired by themself or something, and this one is quite a red flag, some mentally ill dude wanted to kill someone they love or even eat them, should I continue this on the site or on a police line.
