Really love how creepy and almost supernatural the horror of the town feels. Kinda like an eldritch horror beat except without anything explicitly supernatural happening so you wonder if it’s your imagination.
And the ways in which the curse and feeling of entrapment and trauma is passed through generations is depicted in its own chilling way that makes it feel less and less like any one character is the antagonist and more like some nebulous spirit of the town as a whole is

I have always felt sorry and sad for the younger Yuko, she didn’t deserve this and who knows how far back this trauma goes. She had to survive through hell on her own using whatever means to get by. She probably really loved only one person during her innocence phase, her unrequited love Esemori (Nozoe), all other were just tools. Slowly her ways got amalgamated into her character itself with no real feelings and emotions left turning her into an abyss. She may love Reiji but i am not even sure of that.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Seeing her cry after finally being left alone in the house is so heartbreaking honestly, all I see is the younger Yuko in her.

Like I said before, against indoctrination of this magnitude amidst the nightmarish circumstances she had to endure, she never had a chance once her innocence was unjustly robbed from her. Damn, generational trauma and the abyss too OP.

I have a feeling that generational trauma is quite common idea in so many mangas. I'm a little bit disappointed in this story.
