Not that it matters since any biographic connections this story makes are irrelevant and distorted, but the actual Beethoven was gung-ho about piano duels, so he'd never refrain from entering a modern piano contest. He needed to be: in order to become known in the cut-throat musical scene of...

True, but even so, what she said in chapter 2 was a hell of a clue. She said she knew his mother called him "Nozomu-san", thus intimating she has knowledge of the fact Okaya controls his parents. That suggests Maria and Shizuka don't know each other from their childhood, adolescence or college...

Why would Okaya want to figure out Maria's age when she told him in chapter 2 she was acquainted with his mother in the past? Shouldn't that be enough for him to conclude the two women are in the same generation? And by the way, if he suspects Maria, why doesn't he go to his mother, whom he...

Speaking of, I'm not sure whether Cheol-u is just the typical hostile but honest senior colleague who is distrustful of the rookie, or whether he's gonna be an insider for the fraudsters in the anti-corruption unit and an antagonist to Jiyong. Could go both ways, really.

Dogmatic? Inflexible? Mate, you have no idea.

We've been discussing the possibility for a while now. What I take from this chapter is that she can create an area of overlap between the present and the future much larger than normal people, and hunters seem to have used it in the past (the middle school incident) and to be constantly trying...

Okay, that makes sense, I guess I was stretching it. But then, how did Min-ho cut the beetle hunter into two? (Though now I think of it, I guess if my explanation were correct, we wouldn't have seen both halves of it. There would be one in our world, and one in the future one, or something.)

Huh, so I got that one right. Jeongtae being a former monster gains credibility after this chapter… and maybe Yun-yeong? Curious about the psycho teacher now.

Okay, refining the hypotheses a little. I think I get now what Min-ho and Minji can do that others can't. In chapter 19, we saw that the circle of fire that signals the transition from the future world to the present one was harmless when Yun-yeong was the one generating it. The reason the...

Okay, so it's confirmed that the hunters can get so close to being human that they'll even lose their hunting instincts. So my guess that Jeongtae is a completely metamorphosed hunter who now behaves like a human gains some credence. What I'm curious about now is what the difference between men...

Okay, so now at least we know: Jeongtae is ruthless and cold-hearted. While Yun-yeong advises going to desert areas after eye contact, he advises going to crowded areas. That means he doesn't mind how many people get their souls devoured so long as he escapes with his. Very ominous indeed.

Trying to connect some scattered clues in the chapters so far, I'm guessing Jeongtae is very dangerous. I think these hunters are trying to complete a transition back to humanity by collecting souls, and once they catch a certain number, they're able to cobble together a human personality and...

I don't really know, that's why I wrote "seems". I'm just taking a guess.

Oh, I think I get it now. This is what they meant with having to team up to fight the predators. Each of the people featured in the story so far has slightly different skills or personality traits that complement each other: Minji has a fearless personality and is a great fighter. Also...

Chapter 27 is out, you know. And 28 being worked on.

Weeeeell… we have a translator. One who's been with us a while, and has completed a series with us already. Nothing is certain in scanlation, and it's a 131-chapter series, but we have a team for now. Chapter 27 is in the works.

Some of the new names in this chapter are just that, new characters who'll presumably be important down the line. But the last name that got the more significant name drop refers to the first season. Remember, throughout that part of the story, Gang-ok was feuding with his father, who wanted to...

The lengths this author goes to keep this stupid manga going...

Poor Mr Park, working for a hypercompetent boss who doesn't give a shit about work-life balance, keeps dragging him into his shit and is eager to see the world burn. As for Jiyong, I'm really enjoying how the more amazing his underworld exploits get, the more scolded in his workplace he gets.

To be honest, one of the reasons I think Lucas' crew will survive is precisely because the red flags are so blatant. It's like the author's saying, "watch me subvert all these impending death tropes". By analogy, I'm getting AoT vibes, another story in which much of the main cast survived...
