Foreshadowing is a literary device

at least when it comes to Kazukage it makes sense that he'd simply run away instead of asking clarifying questions or wait for a complete answer.

but I do think that the extent to which the author's using "I disengage from conversation" as the default to keep the story suppressed risks becoming a crutch if things are simply left unspoken for too much longer. Even if it's only chapter 6, there's enough stuff in play that the Leads could actually talk, rectify the misunderstandings and miscommunication between them and become a unified pair, and still have plenty of external points of tension and drama to create an interesting narrative.

Having them fighting themselves, one another, and the world around them is a bit too much, I think. Kazukage is already beaten down as a person, clearly since childhood--as it stands, he arguably needs more than simply "Karen being present" to not run away completely, so hopefully the next chapter actually sees them talk and sort all of this out.

Reading this kinda just makes me depressed. Why do I do this to myself? 😅

Man it’s been so long since releases that I can’t remember who this guy is, I vaguely remember Karen having a chud jealous coworker, but is there something more to it that I’m missing?

In all likelyhood, it's her brother, the MO of the mysterious person who ruined their treehouse withour a tree back then and the MO of this guy are exactly the same, and it is unlikely the girl would've willingly kept someone like that in her life since early childhood all the way into her adult life if he wasn't a relative

Blondie's newly introduced as of this chapter.

Given Karen tells him "go home" specifically, I actually think Yuuma's her brother. Likely a deadbeat, using her for money and getting violent when he's denied.

And, given the secret base was destroyed in a similar fashion back when they were kids, and Karen and Kazukage were the only ones who knew of it...I think Yuuma being her brother, finding out about the base, and destroying it as some sort of abusive power play or something is the line the author's going with.

Also/Alternatively what @mgRdr said.

I'm really curious about who Yuuma is. Her boyfriend or ex? He gives off major scumbag delinquent vibes. Or could he actually be Karen's older brother?

Thank you for translation

"Kazukage, it was my [brother] who destroyed our secret base, not me."
–Karen if she didn't make a contract with the Misunderstanding Devil

if he doesnt turn back and break that guy's spine right away mc is a fucking pussy

the Misunderstanding Devil

Unstoppable unless everyone talks things out for more than 6 seconds.

going off of gestures at entire story thus far

expecting Kazukage to do anything other than stand there looking scary to anyone who isn't Karen or the person reading the story is a lesson in futility.

ohhh it's D&D 5e rules

simply speaking a sentence takes an action, but "Communication" is a 1st level spell in a no-magic setting that also requires concentration to persist/take effect into the next round of combat.



That's why it never seems to come into play in manga until the very end of the title's run. Makes perfect sense when you put it that way.

 

[Beazy]

This might be one of the lamest chapters of a manga I've ever read

 

[Acolytus]

Kick his ass

 

[outinthegardener]

End of chapter memes on point. Hey man, see the ruin of your house and immediately deduce the chud who just walked out is the one who did it. Run his ass down, be big like a bear, and maul him! Or at least duct tape him to a pole and call the police. "Yes officer, this guy just trashed our house. Prison, now."

Couldnt be a smoothsale after all...

"welp, i guess it was going too nicely, so let's make it worse" - the author, probably

idk man, guess this is just how it goes with many of these series
