After 2 first volumes. Fun concept, but boy it gets old fast! Is there ANY character development later on? Will she ever start figuring out what she's seeing and why? Maybe, if not fight back, then maybe try to do smth, ANYTHING about it? What is the point of showing us that there are actual exorcists capable of facing those things if the main character never tries to learn and just keeps pretending that she sees nothing while crapping herself?
Does it get better? Will she ever be anything other than helpless victim?

I wish i was like Hana, eat as much as you want and not get fat..
Miko is so cute, something about seeing her in tears makes me feel...something is awakening in me, deep down
anyways, she is cute...
though i guess, the elephant or ghost in the room is
she is weak and not really trying to learn skills from the GodMother or Romm
now I don't necessarily hate that in itself
but would be nice if she got some kind of power up
and when is she and yuria gona have a talk ... the misunderstanding keep on going

I don't get what you commenters like about this series so much. It's very repetitive and the ghosts don't really scare me; I don't understand why anyone in the main friend group are friends; and the wholesome scenes feel really cheesy ("scary looking guy is actually kind to cats").
Only in volume 3 does there start being any real development, and it's through a very trope-y way (though I guess it subverts it). Then it starts getting really involved, and I'm not sure if I want to continue because usually it doesn't work so well when a SoL suddenly decides to have plot.
I just read Delinquent Exorcist Reina, which I really enjoyed, and saw a lot of comparisons to this. It's not really horror in the same way, since Reina isn't powerless – it's a lot more like an action story the way Reina main-characters her way through various challenges – but there are still a lot of characters.
I don't want to double-post so also,
He mentions things like seeing black holes in the sky eating up the sun. There was some previous discussion in this thread about schizophrenia.
Another interesting interview:
Also, it seems that ignoring hallucinations really is a way to deal with it; it can't physically hurt you. I have heard, in tulpamancy (basically, the practice of making imaginary friends) ignoring your "tulpa" will make them fade. There was this one story on 4chan of someone messing up and creating a blind, deaf, constantly screaming tulpa of Pinkie Pie, which may be of interest to people:
It's unclear what anon's fate ultimately was.

The manga seemed promising in the beginning, but, sadly, ended up being a complete downer.
Somewhat original concept and bunch of plot twists can keep you entertained for a few chapters, but zero character development and repetitive comic reliefs in every scene quickly made reading it boring as hell.

Ngl this shits pretty trash. Wasnt bad at first but mc never changes which gets annoying. Like shes so unlikeable its insane. And the side characters are pretty bad too and the plot has only just started going somewhere
I enjoy this a lot but there's definitely some issues with developing the characters.
The MC is developing through acquiring more courage to try and deal with what is happening, so that she won't have to run away anymore.
Most of the exorcists are kinda just... there... Romm and the Grandma did their thing during the earlier volumes so I guess they're just going to be the main force to defeating whatever baddie comes next.
Hana and the short friend were kinda just... forgotten. Like occasionally some chapters will be about them, but literally nothing is being done to make them more interesting. The short friend in particular is heavily underused, like why the fuck does she even exist?
I can at least make an excuse that Hana is there for emotional support, but I can't think of anything for the short girl. She had some sort of connection to the godmother, but that didn't go anywhere. She wants to get stronger, but again that doesn't go anywhere. The tall friend ironically has more development than her...
I would say that I recommend this but I'm not 100% sure on that. I would even say that this one is a 50/50 hit or miss. It's quite good conceptually but I don't think even the author knows what to do with the characters...
