I was going to groan on the bullied friend shorts but then saw this was done by Hamita sensei so I already know there is going to be a twist. The question I ask is if this will have a happy ending or will we get the Hamita special? Thanks for the translations.

Hamita's goal appears to be the complete extinction of humanity via spreading despair. Long live Hamita.

"Artist: Hamita"

Oh. Ok. That makes sense. I guess after recently reading something where I expected the Hamita twist and it never came this is the universe balancing itself out again.

I was already expecting this to be sad since i could tell this was Hamita, but i was surprised that Hamita took it there of all places.

part of me thinking, is Hamita just junko enoshima? cus Hamita just doesn't want us to experience any human emotions with all their works lol

Maybe the Hamita twist in Yukirizuriman is lulling readers into the sense that it's not that terrifying that the hero for the power to save or destroy humanity to only care about satisfying his fetish for bedding and abandoning dangerous, mentally unstable, inhuman monsters?

I think Hamita isn't capable of making genuinely engaging or sympathetic characters. It could be that it's because he's personally a bit of a twisted guy, but more likely lack of 'The Gift' for storytelling. Try as one might to make up for 'The Gift' with novelty, uniqueness, objectively clever dialogue and plots... without the natural talent a writer can't create characters that readers emotionally connect with. Successful writers talk about the importance of effort - which they do indeed make - but either assume effort is all that's needed or won't say the offputting truth because it would wreck their reputations..

It wasn't Yukirizuriman that I was referring to. It was this:

https://mangadex.org/title/33d986ba-6bda-4276-952a-ed38d1da8c2c/haji-o-shiranai-hajiko-san

spoilers, but the twist is that there really is no twist. It's basically exactly what it looks like: a guy and a somewhat weird girl falling for each other.

Of course it is just a oneshot, so maybe we got out the escape hatch before discovering that he's a serial killer and she's a time traveler from the future that uses a device powered by the hearts of sacrificed babies or something screwed up like that.

I'm also willing to give Yukirizuriman a bit of a pass because Yagiko/the goat girl is a top tier waifu and I would do unspeakable things for her.

Ah yea, a manga by Hamtaro or whatever he’s called.

I’ll spoil it for y’all – everyone dies.

You’re welcome.
