it look interesting

Seems cool so far, but that "japan and parent's crime" bullshit again though. Maybe the girlfriend is a copycat killer, trying to "bring" up his inner desire for murder and shit.

 

[Nightlilygirl-]

Hm, this has potential, but could go downhill soon... Let's hope not, the art is great anyway!

 

[XL]

Girlfriend did it, nah of course not. It's a reverse twist, mc is the bad guy! But wait, that's a trap. It was Dio all along!

 

[omnixd]

Either MC or sister did it, whoa the art is gorgeous but then again the quality will decrease over time, we know that gf doesn't really love him too T.T sad.
Has tons of potential.

 

[Straborvsky]

Hmmm ... it's still lack information to draw the conclution, however, the most easiest guess is he had split personality disorder.

 

[soladox]

really hate this jap bullshit thing about the sins of the father

 

[Hounder]

@soladox It isn't just the Japanese. It is actually a fairly common thing between different cultures that the sins of one family member are reflected on the other members, especially direct relatives.

 

[DesertStorm]

@soladox @Hounder

It's actually what keeps society together! All this secular, Western bullshit is ruining your society. Thankfully, I live in an Asian country that knows that honor matters. People need to know that when they're doing something, their family will also be affected and understanding this will help them prevent doing harm to others!

 

[Maala]

@DesertStorm Yea, lets kill the baby of the rapist, or if it's already beyond that point, condemn the newborn for the rest of her life. Dont forget about the trash mother who let hetself raped too!

I am sure the truth is somwhere between these two (your example and mine) opposites.

"Honor" is a nice word until it gets distorted and disregarded by those who have more influence than you, and then you are at the same point where western bs is.

 

[Retard_]

This really reminds me of the webtoon "Bastard!", Can't wait for more! Thanks scanlators!

 

[DesertStorm]

@Maala

The honor is dependent on the crime. Society has standards! It doesn't just see everything as bad.

 

[criver]

I predict the MC has MPD and is the killer here. This idea has been overdone to death in books and movies. A prime example: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secret_Window

@DesertStorm
You are free to keep to your antiquated beliefs. But I would advise against voicing them out publicly in any civilized society, lest you want to make a fool of yourself. There's nothing honourable in putting blame on innocent people because somebody can't see past his hatred or because the morals of the people around you are rudiments refusing to die right out of the middle ages.

 

[Maala]

@criver Are you saying it's wrong to kill young goblins before they mature and kill innocent villagers? :-o

 

[VladDracul2]

Guys, remember, this started with the guy sleeping after drinking himself silly.

It had already been done.

 

[criver]

@Maala
I can't tell whether you're being sarcastic or serious.

 

[DesertStorm]

@criver I have lived my whole life in Asian society. My beliefs are generally accepted except if you're a degenerate as some might say.

 

[Maala]

@criver Half-half? Well, if it's about the clash of cultures, then it's simplified to who is "stronger", really. So one can enforce it's honor, ethics, or however you want to call it on the others.

You could argue that that is "not civilised", but it's only by your own measures. Eg. is a swarm-like civilisation like in Independence day, are they uncivilised? Only by our own standards. By theirs, we are the uncivilised/primitive ones.

Same with goblins in goblin slayer, and essentially, same with this aspect of asian culture, dont you think? What I was implying and imploring from @Desertstorm is whether it's unilateral to all cases or each case is decided individually. (eg. a woman and his child losing "honor" by force)

Btw, I dont think society as a whole and smaller commnuties have the same measures. Like said woman in most cases will be forgiven by "society" and at the same time outcasted or labeled by the smaller/closer community they live in.

So in this case, I dont think it's good to condemn "asian culture" as a whole, it's only that smaller communties are trash, just like that. Like that reporter. Taking a generally good idea and using it for their own purposes however they see fit for their own benefits.

@DesertStorm
Unethical and irrational beliefs may be generally accepted in some societies, doesn't make them anymore ethical or rational, just means that a large number of people are prejudiced. Slavery was generally accepted in some ancient societies, doesn't mean it was right.
Blaming innocent people is objectively irrational and unethical, regardless of what the morals in a specific region are.
