Aw shit, why you gotta ruin the mood with each chapter's ending.

 

[BREADsteeeks]

Thanks for the chapter.

I wonder what is her secret. Maybe a hooker? The town hooker?

When i was a kid i was hella hairy. But i didn't reveal so much skin as girls these days. U see "Cuties"?

Peace and love.

i have no idea what going on in that sister head she act like a bitch here

also i have no idea what change about that girl , armpit hair ? does that mean im on a same level as a kid lol

 

[Richman]

I don't like those "foreshadowing" endings, i feel like it ruins the moment and also the surprise.

 

[CuJoJo]

The sister's really starting to get on my nerves, even more than that blond thot

 

[thecronosone]

Miki should be careful, being such a bitch can backfire, silent and shy people tend to explode a lot harder

 

[SuzxGD]

Thank you for the update!!!

 

[salanates]

Shut up Masashi, she's perfect in my eyes.

This lingering sense of unease is killing me....

The author does a good job of teasing issues yet to come here like bullying and the love triangle, while capturing the lingering sense of unease throughout. However, because its told in through flashbacks, it makes sense we get that whimsical sense of nostalgia at the same time as we get a sense of dread, which makes sense because we know what coming.

@Richman Honestly, depends on how it's down. Like one of my favorite lines of dialogue in any piece of literature is a piece of foreshadowing in The Great Gatsby.

“No- Gatsby turned out all right at the end; it was what preyed on Gatsby, what foul dust floated in the wake of his dreams that temporarily closed out my interest in the abortive sorrows and the short-winded elations of men.”

Not only is its use of diction and imagery powerful in that it perfectly conveys how the character feels at the beginning and end of the novel, but also will characterize how Nick (the narrator) views the other characters of the story and will them by the end, especially by the end.

Another example I like is Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man, which starts with the unnamed narrator teasing the events that lead up to this point but manages to make the situation interesting by describing the philosophy he gained by his experiences throughout the story, foreshadowing his character arc, and describing the unusualness of the situation he is in. (IE he's living in the sewers with 1,369 lightbulbs outside of the Harlem district.)

The difference here is good foreshadowing lets on just enough to be interesting but not enough that you know any major revelations before they're encountered in narrative or teasing character arcs before they happen. I'd say this series succeeds in that aspect

At this point I just wish Asa-nee got to live a happy life after the bad things that happened to her

Thank you so much for the chapter, can't wait for the next one 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

@salanates She should quit smoking. Her lungs are far from perfect, being such a chain smoker.

 

[AnonMan88]

@themoobz something immediately noticeable is that her bangs had been cut a bit.

 

[MeeruNoIranaiBoku]

my dick HARD

 

[Beatrice]

The sister's a character I'm watching out for. None of her panel time or development so far has been tied to Masashi, which is strange for these types of stories where the PoV is primarily from the main character.
