    Usotsuki Satsuki wa Shi ga Mieru - Vol. 8 Ch. 72 - Back and Forward

    Point taken, I didn't think it through. I had one intention in mind (it's not about "x is right/y is wrong" due to nuance) and ended up spouting nonsense. Woops.

    Usotsuki Satsuki wa Shi ga Mieru - Vol. 8 Ch. 72 - Back and Forward

    Deciphering which is which is the reader's job, though. Authors don't need to make up their minds about which opposing subjects he's trying to defend because, for one, writers are not (at least, not all) acting as politicians who want to convince you of rights and wrongs, and second, blaming the...

    Usotsuki Satsuki wa Shi ga Mieru - Vol. 8 Ch. 72 - Back and Forward

    Really? She not only plotted murder by swapping salad oil with fixative, she also framed it on Michiru so she herself wouldn't get caught. You tell me if that's not something a psycho murderer wouldn't do.

    Usotsuki Satsuki wa Shi ga Mieru - Vol. 8 Ch. 72 - Back and Forward

    I don't understand some of these comments, claiming that she's being portrayed as evil for the sake of it or that it's a sudden nosedive. Did you people miss the part where she tripped Satsuki downstairs for a laugh? Or when she tried to extort money off Satsuki even though she knew, deep...

    Saihate no Paladin - Vol. 12 Ch. 57

    Been like that for a while. That's like buying food without checking the ingredients, and then complaining that they're using an ingredient you're allergic to... except you're not the one paying for the translations in the first place. Some people are okay with translating mangas for free, but...

    Usotsuki Satsuki wa Shi ga Mieru - Vol. 8 Ch. 71 - Rejection

    You're onto something. I'd just like to add that I don't think she plans on getting arrested or facing any consequence. Firstly, she's killed not just anybody, but the Students' Council Prez during a school festival. It doesn't make her crime any more or less grave, but it adds pressure to...

    Usotsuki Satsuki wa Shi ga Mieru - Vol. 8 Ch. 71 - Rejection

    I find it disappointing that people take these dialogues/monologues as not just the truth (you can argue or think in favor of something as earnestly as you want and still be thoroughly mistaken; or, just imagine, lying to others is an option), but also as what Ryouko considers the truth ("wow...

    Usotsuki Satsuki wa Shi ga Mieru - Vol. 8 Ch. 71 - Rejection

    That has never been the point and still isn't. Page 6 confirmed she faked memory loss, but neither that nor the rest of the chapter (nor her stabbing Prez) suddenly makes her pure evil. One recurring message this manga brings is to never see things at face value, including what characters say...

    Sayo took care of that. Speaking of, Miho is the only one with real chances of coming out of this Hell Festival alive, thanks to Vice Prez. Might as well rename this manga to "Smug Miho Can Cheat Death."

    Ah, there we go. No matter the subject, the place or the age, Godwin's Law stands firm and true both in occurrence and in consequence: any chance of having a healthy discussion has been decimated, and the guy who brought it up automatically loses the debate.

    Usotsuki Satsuki wa Shi ga Mieru - Vol. 8 Ch. 70 - Release

    I've been thinking about this, also because a lot of people seem to dislike how Ryouko portrayed Kai in his last words. And once again I'll have to ask many of you to think with your brain, not with your heart; because his last words are quite accurate. See Chapter 38, page 15; Chapter 51, page...

    If you truly regard Tolkien well, then you should know better than to use his words in context beyond the original to ridicule someone whose only fault was stating a point you disagree with. You called him an edgy teenager, yet you act like one. Chill.

    Usotsuki Satsuki wa Shi ga Mieru - Vol. 8 Ch. 70 - Release

    I get loathing Prez, but I don't understand how some people here appear to label him as a noisy (from a narrative sense), useless character. He's a complete opposite of Satsuki in many ways, a direct source of physical and moral conflicts. He wasn't there just to kill: Satsuki doesn't want to...

    Usotsuki Satsuki wa Shi ga Mieru - Vol. 8 Ch. 70 - Release

    There's no way. Even if she were a sorceress, she lacks the presence of mind to do anything now.

    Usotsuki Satsuki wa Shi ga Mieru - Vol. 8 Ch. 70 - Release

    Couldn't it have just broken inside Prez's guts after cutting through some? At any rate, I think it's excusable; but then I'm aware I'm just coping, based on the fact that most mangakas seem to believe that katanas are strong enough to cut through other blades and even buildings, which makes me...

    Usotsuki Satsuki wa Shi ga Mieru - Vol. 8 Ch. 70 - Release

    Don't see them as lies but internal battles. The monologues aren't expressing carefree stuff, you don't think about something if you're satisfied with it; you don't think about how you just want to change if you're not feeling pressed to be what they think you really are. And while she did plan...

    Saihate no Paladin - Vol. 12 Ch. 56

    It's only too likely that he opted to make it an isekai to attract a bigger fanbase, but time and again it's been used to further develop William as he remembers what he once was. That's the only thing I disagree with; which goes to show the writer's prowess in not losing a firm hold of the core...
