hmmm I mean I would say that the older sister retained the mindset? but then again we see she probably doesn't have her memories from the other world
It also could be argued that the little sister will be more outwards with her affection and more forward in her appreciation?
but yeah kinda shitty time to be a woman

"It is so beautiful a tale that its conclusion is not mine to write." This is literally how it's been since Chapter 8, you're literally having the same take Isha had in that chapter. Like the others, he laid out the subjects' full story and left their ending for them to write on their own. Yuriko's clearly kept her emotional resolution and Hikari's kept both that and her memories. Even if the circumstances are different, they can write their own ending now that they understand their own story.

Also, nice writing move/tl recognition for having Sensey go with "lady-killer" for Wolf, since English translations of No Longer Human traditionally use it for what Oba is called (something like "an erotic monster") to insult him for, you know, ruining and ending women's lives. The twist might be that Wolf was ultimately unimportant to the sisters' relationship, but Wolf himself thought that was his role and we were probably supposed to feel the same.

sobbing at the club reading this chapter rn

Breaking news: Rampant truck is taking lives all over Japan. There have been hundreds of victims. It is still a mystery how it moves across the country so fast.

 

[awkwardusername]

wow

 

[XTwist]

There's no way only one of them could retain the memories. Maybe some cases would disregard them as a long dream, but they definitely need to keep them somehow if they are to change.

That's not the point this mangaka is trying to make though, as with the previous 2 that was sent back (the bullied kid, the handicapped), their lives don't magically improve after going back.

The common theme of all the otherworlders returning to their previous situation is that they grow as a human being and are better prepared to face their situations head on instead of escaping into the fantasy world.
This is emphasized if you referred back to the beginning of this manga where Anette states that only people who wished to escape their lives are sent to the fantasy world.

This is a very stark contrast between western and eastern culture, where the West emphasize changing the world to fit the individuals, the (far) East emphasize of accepting the world as-is and changing your outlook and how you interact with it. I do NOT endorse one culture over the other, but I am stating that understanding the differences will help you appreciate the story more.

 

[kratosarnav]

ironic that the man who wants to die the most is giving others a chance to complete their lives

Personally i prefer the eastern way, 'cause western people think they can change the world...

WHAT A MASTERPIECE

 

[NishaAzalea]

A shitty dad through and through.

I wouldn't say that.

He was just more concerned for Hikari, because of her condition.

He scolded Yuriko from leaving her alone while knowing she was sick.

Which is still deserved.

As much as we know Yuriko was a kind and loving older sister, she still was wrong for just leaving her sick sister while no one else was around to watch over her.

You can't just say the dad was shitty, when he was just doing his job as a parent and scolding his eldest daughter for doing something so irresponsible.

Yuriko may have felt like she was ignored and not loved, but a parent won't just leave their sick child to someone if they don't trust them.

We have no information on if the dad was really bad or not.

But from what we were shown and told, it was Yuriko at fault.

She should have waited for his parent to arrive before asking permission to go out.

She should have stayed and held back her desire to leave in order to look after her weak sister.

And at the very least, she should have at least brought her sister with her (although this is not a very good idea)

The father still works hard for his family, Yuriko from her outfit still goes to school which shows his father still provides for her education.

Again, would a shitty parent put all this trust on her instead of just asking a friend to look after Hikari?

Yuriko was also a very quite and self kept girl, that's why her power became greed, because she used to hold back all her wishes.

Which means she never tried requesting anything or seeking attention from her parent.

Not every person is perceptive enough to be able to tell someone's emotions or desires.

If you don't speak them out they could possibly never know.

So her father might have thought Yuriko was a strong mature girl, who he could trust with Hikari.

And may have never known Yuriko was actually weak and wanted attention and validation.

Sure it may mean he didn't fully understand her, but that doesn't necessarily mean he ignored her.

They are both at fault.

Her father never asked, and Yuriko never said anything.

But that's normal for families, sadly enough, people can only guess and speculate unless told to them.

Her father was too busy with work, I wouldn't blame him if he couldn't find time to bond with them.

And Yuriko was too afraid too be a burden to her family that already had it hard.

Maybe in a different scenario, one where Hikari never got sick, maybe their father could have been less active in work, and spent more time with them.

Maybe we wouldn't have needed to earn so much for her medication.

And maybe they could have been a happier family, spending time together, all 3 of them.

Cool. Yuriko and Hikari were from the 1960s. The fashion style and the type of truck that killed Yuriko seems to indicate that. I had assumed that all the otherworlders were from the present time, but they seem to have been summoned from different periods.

Looking back at Chapter 1, I realized that the truck that killed Sensey is from the 1940s. Makes sense as Sensey is patterned after Osamu Dazai.

Then there is the leader of the Kaliman gang, who looks like a bosozoku biker from the 80s. We really are looking at Japanese people from different decades.

They've at least resolved the mistakes they've made and they've grown as people. In the real world, sometimes your just dealt a shitty hand in life, but you have to make do with it.

I'm pretty sure she did retain her memories, but she wanted to just let her sister think it was a dream. After all, even though they made up, she did try to kill her sister in the other world.

Dude.. what a masterpiece

 

[popo53414]

So, she's sick again?
