The series' view of selfish self-sacrifice is really interesting. It's not inherently bad, it's just always focused on the person's own desire and it usually turns out bad for the person they're saving not out of malice, but because said person must be victimized if the martyr is determined to...

You know, if I had to guess which of the Madaraki girls would be the first to have a kid, I guess I would have said Gavrill. (Unless Fran L and R count?)

Oh shit, Algonquin mythology in Franken Fran!! Holy shit! As always, really damn cool idea, bless the mangaka.

I'm such a sucker for taking a long-term arc like Kuhou's and summing it all up so far. I hope we catch up with the "original" one who married Matsumae at some point, hopefully she's happy enough to make up for the thousands of dead Kuhous in heaven(?)

I honestly love that the first part got to be an unabashedly kind and wholesome twist on isekai, and then we still got to do something more Fran-core later that also plays off all the slave/rape isekai. Curious to see how it all wraps up.

The devices that let you talk to dogs were a jumpscare, I didn't realize those were canon to Franken Fran. That instantly made the whole scenario so much more insane, when it's just Fran you can understand her forgetting an old pheromone breakthrough or immortality surgery, but the whole world...

I love that the only thing to ever truly corrupt Fran has been fujoshi brainrot. Considering that her weaknesses have always been love and things she's learning about for the first time, it actually makes a lot of sense that learning about a genre of romance fiction that's a severely distorted...

This chapter might read as a broad play on Friday the 13th or horror movies in general, but the main meat of the chapter is a parody of the first chapter of The Promised Neverland.

Bro Fran literally walks into the chapter saying that America should give everyone free healthcare coverage and ends it saying that every other way of living is also bloodsucking, it's definitely a metaphor but it's not anti-assistance.

Like a rising number of the world's ills, this was probably a war between Fran's patients. There's no way she was naturally falling down the ranking with such enhanced milk production if the competition didn't also have superboobs, and if it was a quality thing more than a quantity thing then no...

Haven't read Frantic yet but they've gotta do a FNAF saga in the same vein as Sentinel/Kamen Rider, it's too perfect.

Fran should have known better, her coom room for all the high school boys in Ep. 19 ran on fly pheromones. Though I suppose the coom room was a whole new organism , while using the customer's own pheromone production necessitated the super-potent nerve gas route time time.

Adorea only does that on request or if she feels like it. Plus, if she showed up with lots of extra organs, that might tip Fran off to Veronica's massacre and she'd get in trouble.

The first time I read this chapter, I didn't know about Kamen Rider. This whole saga feels brand new now.

I always confuse this chapter with the Black Jack chapter where he saves the terrorist with the help of the people he tried to kill. Franken Fran really is the true successor to Black Jack, just learned about Frantic and rereading the OG is just making me more excited to get there!

WHAT THE FUCK?!

I don't like the Mephisto thing, but in-context it's pretty clearly the creative team saying "we didn't write this story intending to reset it all away, we think this is stupid so we're aligning it with OMD out of protest." Which I can respect.

You can see it in Chapter 9.1, it's an abstract wrist tattoo. She keeps it covered with her wrist band, which is why she had it out when the tattoo talk came up.

It's pretty common, we usually hear about "karoshi" or "overwork death", but lots of people don't just suddenly die from overwork, it's common to be driven close to death once or multiple times before either quitting or dying.

Agreed. "Reliant" is too kind of a term. She never asked to handle the company's in-house system as a one-man show, they forced her to do it and it became a system only she could handle because it was entirely her responsibility. If they just hired a full team in the first place, not only would...
