Has the most embarassing slob death...

...Comes back more fucking powered up than Goku gone Super Saiyan God, all to dunk on her shitty classmates.


Get Rekt, nerds.

Honestly, I really really adore this manga. BUT... her speech had me teared up in the first half, but then last half stifled it a bit for me. It was great when she was speaking from her own experience and how her family still loved her. Then she went on and talk about the law and then get way too preachy in the second half, and it just feel a bit... too much. Should have left it at that.

Gonna follow and keep reading this though.

Ngl, this basic premise is kinda depressing, because it suggests that so many people are living like the protagonist pre-time jump, and genuinely think it's impossible to change after becoming an adult, and they're just stuck that way.

Now that I'm an adult, I can see how pointless a lot of the worries I had back in high school in the grand scheme of things. Validation from my peers was everything, and I had to tip toe my way around to keep the class atmosphere in check. I made friends so it wasn't all bad, but it had its dreadful moments.

Stories like this always make me have a sense of dread - like she actually did die, and she really did never change, and this is their heaven, or a multi-verse version of themselves.

There was another comic with a similar concept as this, with a divorced, fired, hated father. It turned out he was living in a multiverse and ended up seeing all the possibilities of his life, before returning to his current life with a renewed purpose through the shift of perspective. I don't think I've read one that handled it as well as that - yet at least.

I thought this is going to be a really interesting, challenging read, where a very much adult character has to startup their lives...In a manga. Totally unheard of.

And then time rewinding.
Eh.

I can fix her
she doesn't need fixing

Based on the summary it seems like she's fixing herself , the reverse harem tag might be a bit much wish fulfillment but I guess it's not as overused as a male MC with a harem

..why did the short hair girl try to have beef with mc tho?? it's day 2 y'all never met.

Never underestimate the pettiness/shallowness of teens

Damn she(35) literally me in around 10 years.
The sad part is we can’t rewind😂

There are some good deep manga idk how many ppl say "this is life changing" Altho while not ideal to get certain advice from manga/fictional stories I wonder how many ppl have learned things on what to do/how not to handle situations

Like romcom shoujo manga being "frustrating " with misunderstandings and it being like "yeah don't be like this chara"

Reverse harem and romance tag I wonder if she'll actually end up with guy in the long run or simply regain confidence, get a decent job and made someone in that company or so bc while fun in fiction other than an adult series I don't think it'd end up with her having a harem right into adulthood too lol

While being a neet is common in Japan, other than some really good life insurance or housing/gov assistance (if not outright suicide), I'm surprised there's no psych/slice of life manga of someone who's a hikkikomori that has to deal with things after their parents die if they didn't already have some online side hustle where they don't have to leave their house to do their job

Oof that's rough but even if it's common in Japan meeting some online friend irl is risky esp if you don't know their gender versus some kinda public group thing like a convention maybe

I don't mind this concept but I also would've been fine if she had stayed an adult like that other doomer girl series where she was a konbini worker

me when i'm a neet who can't speak to a single person but suddenly gain the ability to give an entire speech in front of all my classmates overnight
The speech is very preachy, but speaks from her heart. It’s embarrassing to say out loud, and yet she has the courage to do so. If it were any other character, I’d cringe (I did a bit here) but the feeling of her meaning every word gives it more impact I’d say.

I say if the guy before her time travel gave her a chance we would’ve gotten a bittersweet story of her being a better person regardless.

But yeah, I think it’s not an overnight thing, more like she had it in her all along, just not given the wisdom back then.

I understand that giving a big speech like that despite being a shut-in for most of her life is unrealistic. But allow me to play the devil's advocate, and point out that sometimes one can get unreasonably confident when talking to younger people, and she is mentally at least a decade older than everyone else in that class.
