I like how this mega-arc has been leaning more into Kfufu's "joker" aspect. This chapter's "toys don't die" speech highlighted how she operates according to her own sense of valid logic. I also liked the detail of her drawing a tear on her own face, resembling Sik Sik's, when she started using...

Regrettably, I'm not well-read enough to expound on the interesting points you've brought up. I wonder if more familiarity with Japanese culture could also shed some insight into the themes the mangaka has written into this series. I look forward to seeing more exploration of this series' themes...

I like how Kfufu just keeps suddenly popping up with one of her goofy faces. Her expression from the end of last chapter was great.

This was a great chapter. Felt like they're assembling the Avengers to take on the Assassin's Association—except they're also going to be brainwashing/converting ninjas to their team. This might impact the Cute Girl Death Count to Chapters Ratio. I LOL'ed at Yuriko having been left at the...

I don't think there's a chapter 11.4. Scanlaters on MangaDex conventionally use x.1–x.4 to refer to a single chapter that was released in multiple parts by the publisher; and use x.5–x.9 to refer to bonus chapters/content that were released after the chapter (typically in the tankobon volume...

A Story About A Hallucinatory Girl Following Me Around and An Angel's Love At First Sight are also short, happy-ending Hamita series, with classic Hamita twists.

Yes, Hamita is infamous for stories that have unexpected twists and end with the protagonist dying. But they're not always tragic either, so you never know what to actually expect.

Yeah, this series feels like it leans more towards cosmic horror, where humans are just an insignificant part of the universe—but based on Japanese folklore instead of the usual Cthulhu mythos. It makes this series stand out from other horror series. I think the frequent insect imagery also...

Great chapter. Great characterization of Shrimpy, and Teru's growth. More lore on the Amalareiks's rings. And Shy jumpscare. Back in chapter 142, we were told that scar transformation was what led to Shine's death.

I could see the argument going both ways. Typically, "O-Okay, I get it." would be indicating hesitation or stumbling due to surprise, which would be completely natural in verbal speech, but unusual in written text, since you have time to process what you just read, before typing your response...

Qbara Qbara's backstory felt a bit flimsy and rushed. Her backstory was more complicated (parricide and suicide), so it really needed more elaboration on her and her parents' motivations, and their relationship, to better-explain "the true nature [she]'d been born with". I think the problem was...

Wakui had been suffering from depression ever since fifth grade, after his parents died in a traffic accident (which he survived) Since middle school, relied on escaping into his self-written novels, wherein the protagonist's unhappiness had meaning by making the people around the protagonist...

Classic Hamita. But this one actually felt like a proper tragedy, rather than just a death coming out of nowhere as in other series he's known for. Also liked Wakui's poetic-feeling monologues and writing/letters.

While it does feel like we're cutting off from each of these topics and character arcs rather abruptly, I think it would get too depressing to linger too long on these themes. This series doesn't seem to want an overall dark tone, despite being full of tragedy. Those topics are complex enough...

I was expecting Ruri and Emily to have gotten there first, and moved the body. Definitely wasn't expecting zombie Arika.

Celestria: Revealing tragic backstory to her dear friend. Dear friend Jelly: nom nom nom

The scanlator put together a really good summary for us back in chapter 17.4 (starting on page 43), with a convenient chart of all characters and their relationships up to that point on page 55. I think the main developments we've had since then are: Michi's friend Reona (Honda-san) introduced...

There was a massive DMCA takedown on MangaDex two weeks ago, that affected all series from several participating publishers (including this series' publisher, Kodansha). For all affected series, every chapter from before 2 months ago were removed. I've mostly seen scanlators say they're moving...

The scanlator, Daphie, voluntarily removed all of her scanlations from MangaDex, after the recent massive DMCA takedown. People are gravitating towards a manga web site that starts with "C". You can also join her Discord server (listed on her scanlator group page) for info and updates.
