Kaya-chan Isn’t Scary - Ch. 42 - Little sisters are not scary?

[UncannyLuck]

Well, that's horrifying. I'll never sleep again.

 

[TheBigMonk]

Thanks for the chapter!
Oh dear...
Is that what happens when the baby gets 'left in the oven' for too long?
Turns into a fucking cursed foetus, wtf.

 

[Mangamoz]

Kaya used Abortion Fist!

It wasn't very effective.

 

[Onimeno]

Holy shit, this chapter was great and terrifying! How could Mutsu do this to her own sister? I have no empathy left for the priestess that died, she got what she cultivated for decades.

She needs to use it a couple of times for her to master that technique

 

[SuperOniichan]

This is probably how childfree activists see the world.

 

[ZukDragonic]

Damn... That took a darker turn, one darker than I even expected.

 

[Shmeep]

I'd love a big ol' family tree of this situation laid out with a 5 minute YouTube video of someone explaining it all like I'm 5 years old

It's bad enough women can lose their teeth, hair, paralyzed from the back medication, and have the fetus crush their organs but the baby staying long enough to become a curse? I would have cut out my uterus if I was part of that family

making something beautiful into something horrific

 

[Sakuma0]

[Serverclosed]

Macabre!

Probably to add something.
The child is called a “leech”, “Hiruko”

There is an episode from the Shinto myth of creation.

Spoiler: Hiruko

Izanagi and Izanami are about to pair up and marry. They don’t know how to do it though.

At first, Izanami, the wife, took the initiative in the courting. And the result is called Hiruko, a deformed child born without hand, feet, or bones. Seeing the child probably wouldn’t make it, the couple put him in a reed raft and cast him away to the sea. There’s version of myth where he did came back as Ebisu, the good luck god of fisheries and mascot of Ebisu beer brewery. Yes, same kanji as the Ebisumori main family, meanwhile Namu’s branch family’s name is written with Hiruko, but read as Ebisu.

They asked the older gods about what went wrong, and got told they get the order wrong. It should be the man who initiate the courting, not woman (yes, I know, very patriarchal, but that era). This time the husband initiated the courting and they give birth to normal gods.

The question is... who does Mirai want to curse so bad that she did this to herself? I don't think it was just her mother.

 

[eviljackspicer]

Whole family tree is in need of a fucking uprooting and burning

 

[hsun]

That face in the last page.

 

[swimminginsand]

Starting make me side with mom and the cousin on this one.

Curses in Japanese culture are moral punishments for sins. Especially if they come from the anger of cruelly offended people. Draw your own conclusions.
