Axed? Feels like it was axed...

I’m 50/50 on how this second class panned out, where it was all less about the teacher solving issues like in the first class and more about them just having a chance to grow or learn something that could change their perspective. Definitely more realistic, but leaves something to yearn for.

Overall great ride though. Shame it can’t continue indefinitely, but the debates at the end of the course still showcase pretty excellently the different flavours of the class and the more human imperfection exposed by the teacher in the second half vs the first.

If it was axed, the author had plenty of advance notice. The whole thing with the teacher's teacher was quite obviously done to bring the story to some sort of closure.

Thanks for finishing this series! It remains one of the most unique and thought-provoking manga I've ever read!

Thank you for finishing the series! Have been reading for years and have enjoyed every minute of it!

Oooh the etymology of Ningen puts the book "No Longer Human" and other such Japanese title into more perspective.

Anyways. Man, what an ending. It doesn't feel quite right, but with the events leading up to it, it was definitely coming. It would have been nice to get more of sensei's backstory as a character, but as a vehicle for ethics in what is ostensibly an anthology, his personal relationship to what he's been teaching is what it should tie back to. And we got that in the last few chapters. We even got a callback to the very beginning!

But yeah I 100% would have liked to read a continuation instead

Thank you for bringing us to the end! And thank you to the like 5+ groups that scanlated along the way!

This chapter has an odd, unfinished feeling. There was that one long ass chapter where it began with the teachers drinking and having a sort of round table discussion. I guess I was expecting something like that. This one felt.... forced.

I dunno. Maybe it's all in my head. Felt a little dissatisfying overall, but it was an interesting series overall.

Deffo doesn't feel like an axe axe, but maybe a graceful bowing out... or maybe homey did end it before he'd have to start digging deep into lesser known philosophers, though he deffo coulda dropped the famous Heraclitus quote of "No man ever steps in the same river twice" in this chapter and we'd be all

It's a very Mushishi style ending.
The story isn't really over and the characters are going to keep doing what they do, teach even has a whole new group of students, but our time observing it is over.

It definitely felt a little unfinished, but, kinda feels like that's what they were going for.

The endings not really my cup of tea but it wasn't bad.

 

[Resound]

no more ethics class

I feel bad for this kids. He really could have stepped in way earlier when things were starting to heat up. Like when she started screaming "you're part of a cult," that was a great time to try to take the temperature down. She was right screaming at him "what is ethical about this class?" in that moment. Some good questions being raised in the "debate" but maaaaan what a weird way to end off of after all of that.

Edit: Thank you for the translation work. Appreciate taking this journey.

Thx for the TL

Finally get to reach the end of this manga, it was a great read, even though I didn't really apply its lessons in most of my life, just thinking about this manga in times of stress or drowiness was always introspective.

This chapter has an odd, unfinished feeling. There was that one long ass chapter where it began with the teachers drinking and having a sort of round table discussion. I guess I was expecting something like that. This one felt.... forced.

I dunno. Maybe it's all in my head. Felt a little dissatisfying overall, but it was an interesting series overall.

I get what you're saying, it does give a bit of an unfinished feeling, but ironically it does feel like a complete full circle moment when you reread the first chapter, while chaotic this chapter was, the rawness and true feelings that was birth from all this unstability go really hand in hand with what sensei says in ch1, that ethics is useful "when death approaches you". And especially with the following conversation how japanese society refers to humans, the perception of death can be seen as the pressure and craziness of this debate making people let out their true feelings, all to end with a new year and new class. The cycle of ethics isn't really going to make large social-economic changes within these kids, but maybe it will allow them learn how to make new perspectives and change their mindsets as they grow.

Honestly, as much as I would like to know about his marriage, I don't think we need it, just how we've seen how sensei approaches topics like relationships and women, I believe that with his marriage and the woman he was married too, while there was most likely a rollercoaster of good and bad, it most likely wasn't important to him, at least subconsciously. The story really pushed the idea that those who pursued a greater understanding of ethics were eccentric to say the least.

But overall this was a very good manga, not many like this, 9/10 for me

Thanks for finishing this series!

Axed or not, I liked how the author tried to explain how you're not really an "individual", and what makes you a human is the environment you're in.
Just like how the class was really uninteresting at the start, but now they behaved like an actual group arguing and debating, even doubting their own beliefs the more they talked along. U could even call that a character development, maybe.
Thinking a little more, I like how each student's problem was seen through in a way that "there's no correct answers, it depended on the student's view of the matters", and I wish I could see more, it was fun

I dont think this was axed or rushed. Rather i think this is a fitting end for what philosophy and ethics end up being. It affects us different at different points of our lives, and we find ourselves reverting to "immature" perspectives when faced with grief or trauma. Ethics and by extension the study of philosophy have always been a mere valve for release whenever existing as a human becomes far too much, even the choice of not interacting with it as a whole is a valid response the argument being a non-response is "immoral" to one who wishes to practice ethics, but at the same time can you blame any one individual for simply wanting to live life as they please while they are healthy and able enough to do so? Also quite poignant that a series on ethics ends in a way where no fundamental issues are solved because much like time, death, and suffering through existence there is no logic to it, it simply is the way it is; we stay insecure and find ways to rationalize ourselves into feeling secure be it through actions or thoughts, writing, art, friendships and community, etc. We can talk about it through art, performance, literature but at the end of day we all die and find that quite sad to varying degrees.
