Huge boobs = sexualized.

Amazing opinion, stellar critical thinking. Truly the apex of Human mind.
yes it is sexualised, because features like big breasts and certain other physical features automatically make human beings subconsciously recognise that person has good genes for reproducing with which corresponds with sexual desire.
However this isn't a bad thing.
the worst you can say is that it is immodest or indecent . But some people don't like the word modesty or think decency has anything to do with standards of dress, so instead they misuse the word "sexualised" as though it means something bad when in reality thinking about and caring about sex is the norm for humans and human culture.

Like Jesus, eh? Jesus said that it's right to look after your family first before other people, like a father should feed his children first then give the remains to others as scraps. Matthew 15 : 21-28
So no, the dad in this story was not following Jesus' teachings properly. You're wrong. Prioritising strangers over your family members like a bleeding heart liberal is contradicted by Jesus' teachings.
Really cause if you read all the parts that involves Jesus. He always gave up his food and water to the poor and even have his clothes....so no he is fallowing Jesus. You are the one calling him a liberal?? Why cause Jesus would actually consider him a true disciple unlike the Democrats and Republicans claim to be....would you kill jesus again if he stood before you saying be more like the man in this story??? Cause I feel like you would. Which is why Jesus is coming with fire...for people like you who don't see others like a fellow human.

Read the actual bible and you will see everything Jesus has done is for others and he always said to help others when you have the power and strength too since everyone else is to focused about their own greed...what this man is doing he sees others and helps.

he should have been in heaven already..but they are going by Japanese beliefs and he has regrets before dying..why we have him in this story.

The gold saying in religion...I love christ..i don't like the Christians...cause people like them always go political...just look at you calling Jesus a liberal.. when he really was for the people his whole life...he hated abuse he hated the crimes being committed by the rich and powerful who faced no judgement...legit there is so much in the Bible proving you wrong already. You posted one thing oh wow.

Now post the one where god had a father sacrifice a son only for an angel to come and stop him.

Or the one about how a father can sell his daughter to her rapist cause she is no longer pure...

lol look at all this butthurt blather and attempts to shift the goalposts.
Listen you buffoon. I criticised the MC for not putting his family first by being a bleeding heart liberal.
Jesus explicitly says that it is good and proper for a man to look after his own family first before trying to look after others in Matthew 15:21-28.
So my criticism of the MC is supported by Jesus' teachings.
You are totally unable to refute this fact and so you don't even attempt to engage with Jesus teachings in the bible verses I referenced , despite you being the one who tried to bring up Jesus in the first place.
All you're doing is dishonestly shifting the goal posts and pretending like I said that it's bad to help others. I never said it's bad to help others, I criticised the MC for placing helping others before looking after his own family.
Cope.

Making the huge breasts of a woman the focus is absolutely sexualized. But you probably don‘t even realized that, because your mind has already been corrupted by sexualized women in (male-made) media. Proving my point.
"male-made media".

Says everything I need to know about you. Do you need your latte with extra tears and a bit of feminism, ma'am? 🤡

I‘m neither a woman, nor a feminist, nor do I even drink coffee and I have never been to a Starbucks.
But nice try. 😂

I did not misuse the word. Educate yourself.

According to Wikipedia: „Sexualization (sexualisation in British English) is the emphasis of the sexual nature of a behavior or person.[1][2]Sexualization is linked to sexual objectification, treating a person solely as an object of sexual desire. According to the American Psychological Association, sexualization occurs when "individuals are regarded as sex objects and evaluated in terms of their physical characteristics and sexiness.“

If you think that is „not bad“, then you just outed yourself as an incel. ;)
Also, how can it be that other mangaka manage to draw attractive women without objectifying them? (that‘s a rhetorical question, don‘t bother answering, your opinion doesn‘t matter)

"emphasising the sexual nature of a person"
Ok that broadly corresponds with what I said, pointing out the fact that humans care about sex and subconsciously evaluate whether other humans have good genes for reproducing which corresponds to sexual desire. Adult humans do have a sexual nature, it's actually very important to humans and humans automatically care about it. So what?
Rather than using a vague nonsense word I suggest you just say something like "the decision to give the guide of death big breasts and a figure-hugging dress was done for no reason other than to sexually titillate the male audience and I don't like that"
That's what your complaint really is. You don't like that you can tell that this manga features content intended for sexual titillation of males, you find it indecent, inappropriate , lewd, immodest . You feel prudish basically.
There's nothing wrong with you feeling like that. It's actually quite endearing when women/girls (this a particularly maidenly response) feel like restraining/limiting the libidos of males out of some discomfort/aversion with male libido. It serves a useful purpose in society.
But let's call it what it is rather than use contrived nonsense words with unrealistic expectations of human nature or storytelling

I don‘t find it „immodest“. Dude, I‘m European, we aren‘t like you americans with your prudishness. We have nude beaches, for fucks sake.

The problem isn‘t sex itself, the problem is the distraction from a fictional story. If I want to consume sex in media, I watch porn. When I read manga, I want to read a good story, not be bombarded with sexualized women.
It‘s distracting. Nothing more, nothing less. Don‘t project your incel views into it.

I'm European too. Do you think its illegitimate or distracting for any any story to feature content intended to sexually titillate? That is a remarkably similar view to prudishness.
I'd understand if the idea was that it's distracting given that this particular manga is a serious horror/drama/mystery (so far) so sexually titillating content doesn't gel with the tone, takes you out of the moment and prevents you becoming immersed. That's more reasonable than I thought you were being initially
But then the problem would be having sexually titillating content in this genre rather than having sexually titillating content in any manga of any woman.
Sexual arousal is a pretty normal and important part of human experience and it's understandable and legitimate that an author would for example want us to empathise with that situation that a character is going through. The main argument against doing this is that it could be immodest, indecent, inappropriate, smutty, spreads perversion etc. and other prudish concerns. I'm not using prudish to mean unjustified btw. I sympathise with and value prudishness to a decent degree.

You know, it's not particularly smart to advertise a manga on "overwhelming artistic skill" when the art is slightly above average at best. Heavy hitters from Shonen Jump like Jujutsu Kaisen and My Hero Academia have a more distinctive and polished style. Vagabond is a manga with "overwhelming artistic skill" on display. I've read ecchi series and slice of life manga with more compelling art than this. This artist does detailed gore and that's just about it, and that's not even a rare skill in the manga industry.

With her belly exposed and see through top that only shows her cleavage?

At least Yoko Taro can be honest about it. No reason why you can't.

Due to the stated rules, it seems like one can cheese the competition just through patience. It appears like there are ten contestants, and the portal opens up every 100 years, so at worst, you're looking at waiting 900 years to get there, not accounting possible testing for the best routes.

Edit, forgot about possibility of turning into the mobsters during the wait, but we'll see.
Yes, I think they either turn into those monsters after a while or they turn into them when they give up? But I doubt there are many of those doors, and I doubt that's the only group that will try to revive by going through that door. I imagine a bunch of other groups will come after them, but maybe on a slightly different location. So I don't think they can just cheat the system.

A question that just popped into my mind is: the door gets closed for 100 years after someone uses it, but time there isn't the same as time on Earth. Is the 100 years referring to time in that place or time on Earth? Because if it's time on Earth :kek:

Had to drop this mid chapter. Man I thought romcom MC's were spineless and pathetic, but this guy takes the cake. I don't even care if he does a full 180 later on. The fact that he allowed himself to be a pussy doormat for 40 years is enough for me.
