What the hell have these one shots on mangadex been on lately. The hell?
IDK if you mean the yandere-ish ends but this TL does pretty quick short series/chapters so depends on what's chosen

Otherwise twitter comics are pretty common still

Nah, I've just ran across like three different one shots on here. None are related to each other, it's just all have some kind of sad or weird twist.

LOL well some tropes/cliches can get trendy, it's probably easier to make a 'messed up twist' in a one shot versus building up to it after 6 chapters, but depends on the story

i came across this author and some of their original work, including this one, while browsing on pixiv a few months ago
and i can say that it's pretty much the same trope. smaller highschool-or-college-aged-ish girl x bigger guy who seems nice enough but is actually a nonhuman yandere. it's kinda fun seeing the scenarios involving nonhuman yandere guys this author makes up.

will this extra page show if he's actually malicious or not?
tweet caption: Interview with Bird Tengu-san from "Courtship"

Q: I'd like to see Bird Tengu-san with his mask off!

Please take a look!
It's not much different than a human's!

Q: Did you like the girl in the first place? Or did you fall in love at first sight when she gave you a shiny thing?

It was love at first sight when I saw her in town...
I was following her around in the hopes of having us become a pair...
My wife seems to enjoy tag! We often play it together.

so his second answer shows he's been stalking the girl for a while and is oblivious to her current attempts at escape. it doesn't seem he has any malicious intent in this extra, but I wouldn't be surprised if the author decides to make him snap and become even more obsessive than before.

translation notes:
the tengu speaks mildly formally in japanese
the specific word he uses for "pair", 番 (tsugai), means specifically either "mated pair", like birds and other animals, or "husband and wife".
