Alright, moderately interesting flashback over. I guess the next three chapters will wrap up volume 18. That still leaves a handful of volumes. Surely they won't exceed the George vs Mantaro showdown past 19.
All those legs.... definitely one of the stronger "makes your skin crawl" monster designs in the series. At any rate, there really should have been a Higanjima video game in the vein of Resident Evil or Evil Within. These scenarios give such a strong gaming vibe.
I thought the ending serene and "felt" appropriate despite lacking that closure which comes with an epilogue. Kneeling on that soft sand as the waters lap the shrinking island, tears streaming down his face... it's like, a long pent up sigh of relief and gratitude, finally let out.
I've seen...
.....I know it's manga and artistic perception and shit, but Akiyoshi is the most handsome guy depicted and with a decent, earnest personality to boot.
I have no idea how it is in Japan, but I went to a Catholic school and it was like a goddamn showdown every year after fifth grade between the sisters and a lot of the girls for skirt length supremacy.
