Mii-chan and Yamada-san - Ch. 10.1 - Mom and dad

[MangaDex]

"What was your mom like, Mii-chan? I'd like to hear about her" - are you sure, Yamada-san

are you suuuuure

...anyway. Apologies to anyone traumatised by that reveal; I'll just watch the bookmarks going down, I guess. <_< If someone wants to add the tag, I won't object - I think it counts as kind of a spoiler, but I'm fine to go along with whatever MD's rules say.

Wasn't expecting this.

 

[EroZero]

Wow...just wow

 

[Memoflora]

Did NOT see that coming, but it kinda explains a lot...

 

[yun1que]

Can someone check the author like what's going on in their life rn or maybe the past or maybe whatever the hell he/she's watching and getting into. Cause holy shit. Never in a million chance that a person would be this sick inserting every damn traumatizing thing in this modern world in 1 single characters. My goodness me. Like... Bro.. This author is sick in the head or creative af but in a wrong way

Well, trust me, it isn't presented as remotely "This is cool, huh" at any point in the next couple of chapters, otherwise I wouldn't still be doing it. That being said, I admit this one did make me think "Jesus, I know you're trying to respect someone's privacy, but what the hell happened to the actual 'Mii-chan'?" There was that tweet from the mangaka somebody posted that really made it sound as if the real person was also dead, and after that you can't help but react with "...please tell me this stuff isn't taken straight from RL too..."

I don't feel like the mangaka's turned it into straight-up misery-porn, otherwise again, I'd have dropped it - I have read other series that I would count as way worse/way more exploitative than this, and I gave up on them - but I understand anyone who wants to nope out. I'm certainly... how to put this... proceeding with the mindset that I'm done if she pushes this kind of content "too far" as I see it. But up to this point, I agree it's rough, but I don't think she's crossed the line. Your mileage may absolutely vary, though.

Damn, that Grandma looks like trouble......... and then OH

 

[jrocker]

Mii was a person literally born to fail... No wonder she is so completely messed up since she was born in a horrible environment. I really hope the real Mii didn't have that bad of a life

 

[Nick86]

Kudo on the author to play more drama cards. Sadly we already know Mii fate, was a huge spoiler that ruin everything because everything else is obviously less important now.

[Robertinho]

that's explain a lot

 

[bradboy102]

I lost it at that reveal! Oh my God... This is soooo messed up. Mii-chan has been on the losing team since minute 1. How much of this is based on the real Mii-chan?

 

[AcidVlad]

Damn.

 

[iconsumewood]

oh……………..

 

[ScarecrowB]

So that's why she's retarded!

Yeah. I know I'm exaggerating my reaction because I've just read the chapter and I have to vent somewhere. But like someone said here, she's born to fail like that's so sad dude :{

 

[bigboichin]

This has to be the twist of all time

 

[silverpetricof]

I'm sorry literally WHAT???

Hmmmmm. I see. Well I will say Mii-chan's whole backstory revolving her childhood and parents ought to put most incest mangaka to shame.

Whether or not this aspect is actually autobiographical, I respect the author for committing to the incest I guess. A lot of folks are not amused with supposed incest mangaka using fakeout step-sibling revelations.

Thank you for the translation.

 

[Cryynn]

Will this be the first media/content by Japanese makers that treats incest as something negative?
