The autobiographical part is that she did prostitution as a teenager I think, plus significant mental illness. She had a very fucked up life. Supposedly drawing gore was her solace and an outlet for her anger.

Given that this manga is supposed to be "semi-autobiographical", what that guy said is basically the author's criticism of herself. He seems to be a representation of her most intense self-critical thoughts, with a mixture of legitimate criticism and unfiltered hate.

It doesn't, it only bumps up to the top of my updates list once an English chapter is uploaded.

I didn't mean that she needed an alibi for why she's there, its about giving herself a credible (but fake) backstory so that she can build a rapport with people she meets. She's obviously adept at social engineering due to her mind reading and probably thinks to pick a reason that makes her seem...

I'm sure it is, it's a plausible enough explanation from a 15-16 year old that an adult probably wouldn't challenge, because its cringey to even admit to it.

He's remembering a past trauma, the whole reason she's a shut in is because of this accident.

It might not have the same connotations in Japanese, but the trope of "just one last job" generally ends with the detective/agent in question dying. I wonder if Spica is touching detectives to find out about murder suspects, or because she suspects the detectives themselves. I assume its going...

Given the premise, it's not like they can wrap up quickly. Its just a case of how far they can go whilst claiming they are "not dating".

True, but I would have expected it to be more overt, like he literally knowingly became a teacher specifically because he was a pedophile. Plus there would be more public freakout and mental breakdown moments, and some people would be inexplicably ugly.

Its not that depraved yet. If it was Bakaudon the guy would be a teacher because he is secretly a pedophile himself.

Thanks for the chapter. Just picked this up and it seems really compelling. Obviously a very possessive guy but he does seem to recognise that he's troubled so I'm curious why he actually killed her.

I agree. I think this girl is just a love eater who dislikes her own kind. I think she was basically isolated from any romantic stuff until High School to stop her developing love eater tendencies, not because her family are extremely strict. Perhaps they hoped that she would be normal if she...

Yeah, I'm glad he's not a generic everyman. It makes the women around him seem like proper characters with comprehensible motivations. Even though there are "childhood friend" characters present, the narrative doesn't rely on it heavily to sidestep having to explain why they've fallen in love...

I think he just kills for personal pleasure, to be honest. He's just trying to engineer a situation where it'll either look like an accident, or the body will never be found.

Thanks for your work translating this

I think they are, but the woman who set this whole thing up seems to want to mentor her as an MMA fighter, hence she is demonstrating an aptitude for it even if she fouled the actual match.
