Lmao that smile

(Also, noticed that it has an 'adaptation' tag, is there some original webnovel or printed book of this? or is it something loosely based on the author's short stories or so?)

Hm! I have to admit, I like this development.... the feeling I get from it is kind of like. Instead of "yes N is this big conspiratorial organization!!!" more like. Somehow it isn't. Like maybe these events are all done by disconnected actors just... driven to do these things. By this idea of 'N'.

Something more like a phenomena then anything else.... I do like that kind of story.

the water crawling towards him feels like a final destination thing, damn.

Well, there was that "God" thing/entity but i wouldn't be surprised if other than the symbolism ppl just kinda grouped 'all' of the things behind "N" b/c ppl need a bogeyman to fear as opposed to them being all unconnected then again japan has thousands of youkai

Is this another case of 'N'tity killing off those who pursued it. Like the girl who close off the window in her bedroom but later the window somehow opened by itself (chapter 10).
Or, we're made to believe something like that but actually the guy just somehow turning on the faucet instead of turning it off, which is a very stupid explanation imo.

I really like this enigmatic story. It piqued my interest.

...

Looks like this is in need of a reread.

I am curious to see how everything ties together or maybe the point is that not everyone will. My initial thought was that there was no N, no origins, no mythos, nothing. Just an idea some weird kid came up with long ago. But through mis-attributing all these separate incidents to one host what you end up with is a collective Tulpa.

Though of course, as this chapter puts forth, there could be nothing supernatural going on at all and just the work of individuals gone mad. If it's the latter I'm certainly curious to see how the school massacre played out; since it's from the perspective of the girl it might not be exactly faithful.
