Oh shit. I mistook the kid at the beginning for the journalist with short hair as a kid.... fascinating opening.

The reporter reminds me of Noodle from Gorillaz. So... is this the famous blowjob of death? What a terrible way to die, but from the way she seems to do things, it could have been worse (or more embarrassing, like, in the frog position)~✨
Thks for the tl~

I’m not sure if anyone else noticed but, on page 2 her eyes are looking in different different directions, while on page 50 she’s looking straight down.

 

[Fugutron]

what if she died because she turned realistic, even the corpse's hair changed

still though, knowing that she died in the end really hurts

even straightend out they mouth of hers lol

Damn it… the occult lady was so cute and goofy! WHY DID SHE HAVE TO DIE? UNFORGIVABLE! 😤

Purple Mirror is the urban legend named in the chapter, but the mirror's appearance and rituals bear a more striking resemblance to the story of Pandora. Purple Mirror usually involves a hand mirror and simply remembering the phrase, while Pandora concerns a vanity like this one and a ritual of names.

looking back this is one of the more oddly cute ones. like, basically, its a bagworm who sits in the mirror & adopts u

Didn't notice the first time I read this but Asama must really love photography huh.

Like his exchange at the beginning with Inubousaki would have gone completely differently if he were someone who went out of his way to take spooky photos on purpose. If that were the case he'd have a lot more photos and they'd have overtly creepy subjects.

Instead it seems like those photos are an unwanted byproduct of him taking photos for non-occult purposes.

So basically, he chose to be a normal photographer even though a) it would be easier to sell photos as an occult photographer and b) it would be easier to avoid occult stuff if with another normal job.

the dead bugs, the forbidden name stashed away in the 3rd drawer and the otherwordly mother also are clearly inspired by pandora, seeing both of those storied referenced made an interesting chapter even better lol
