I never thought i'd feel creeped out and feel infatuated at the same time
Like others mentioned if you take the creepiness out it feels just like a yuri scene
Doesn't help i like Kirari as a character
Hopefully she gains a brain before being entirely manipulated
Like to see her evolve past her role of being used

If all that creepy foreshadowing was removed from this series, what would be left would basically just be a cozy slice-of-life so far. I wish the author would finally lift some of the fog because, frankly, that foreshadowing is starting to majorly frustrate with nothing happening...
What "foreshadowing"? You mean the weird stuff you people make up whole cloth and project on the characters to justify injecting your weird hang-ups on this utterly sweet & cute SoL series about a new family? There is absolutely nothing untoward happing in this manga, but that doesn't stop you people from trying to twist innocent motives and coincidences into something terrible.

I can't imagine what is wong with your diseased minds, its like you are dead set on being unable to be happy. You see a series this light-hearted and the first thing you do is try to make it into some weird dark morbid fantasy of yours.

Oh no Touko was stalked by a weirdo teacher and doesn't want the cops involved, not even after his body turns up in the river the victim of obvious foul play! God forbid a girl want some privacy for a personal matter.

Yes, its so awful that a girl connects with her step father by wanting him involved in her life, and not shying away from physical contact like holding hands or straddling his lap. So awful, of course that could only be due to nefarious ends. God forbid someone not act like a grade schooler when it comes to her mother and her husband expressing physical intimacy.

Oh Touka must be bad person because she helped a classmate escape her abusive mother and arranged for her to move in with someone she's known since she was little and who cares about her a great deal.

And now, here we have her making new friend with a girl who isn't very popular in class, encouraging her to use her first name and saying good-bye to her, after she learns how much work that girl put into trying to be her friend, and all you sick people can think of is "lesbian brainwashing".

Please go and seek help if you read this series and can only see nefarious motives or dark story lines.

Will the yandere gain a yandere?
I can't even tell who yandereing who anymore.

ITS JUST YANDERES ALL THE WAY DOWN

Reminder being a Yandere doesn't require sexual attraction or motivations. Kirari just wants a friend.

and lucky she found a sweet, nice girl willing to be that friend. :aquadrink:

what's she going to make Kirari do? take the fall for a crime? get pregnant? both?
Right now, I'm guessing murder ex-Papa or otherwise get him removed from the equation (prison, C O M A S T R A TS, etc)

Its very clear that Kirari is lonely because anyone who approaches her get obsessed over until they are creeped out or smothered. That will be the perfect fall-guy when Former Papa turns up missing or dead.
But honestly good. Fuck him for doing Etou-san dirty like that during their meeting.

This manga is the only story where it keeps me uncomfortably anxious about what horrifying event will follow the next. The author is a genius at this psychological unnerving atmosphere he weaves.

I think we need a word for this, something like blue-balling but for horror/dread instead... 😨 Or 😰 Seems like an apt emoji, but "blue-facing" doesn't feel punchy enough.

I hope the daughter doesn't treat her friends like she does her enemies. I haven't forgotten her orchestrating that kidnapping and confinement. :huh:

oh kirari if only you were enchanted of cool anime, manga or light novels, you wouldnt just be a shy loner type but also a chuunibyou... and you wouldve read lots of manga like this, notice the patterns, become a tsun and you wouldnt be easily manipulated like this...
