A happy ending? What?
I'm very glad to see she made it, but there's an interesting running theme here. Whenever someone gets involved with the supernatural, they seem to be unable to walk away from it, even if they wanted to. While part of that feels like narrative convenience, it also is a great way to underline the trauma of these experiences. You can't live a normal life after them. You can't just walk away.

She lives! But is not so cute as an adult.
To clarify, I was hoping she would be more like Inubosaki, but she has a too serious vibe.

Aww yeah, happy(ish) ending for our poster-loving middle schooler and looks like she's primed to become a recurring character. And in her first present-day appearance she even engaged in the time-honored tradition of telling our protagonist that he's worse at his job than his aunt.
Hang in there, nephew-kun. I'm sure you're actually a really good paranormal reporter, in spite of what everybody thinks of you.

Well give this chapter story to Junji Ito and Lovecraft, it would be 👌. Maybe give it to Naoki Urasawa would also be great. His work in Asadora is good, but too bad no group take it over again.
And that nephew is growing as fine lady.

This arc was great.
Like someone else said every single story arc in this manga can be the basis of a full length manga on its own, for example you could easily think up something like Mikane and the Sea Woman to expand this Deep One arc.

Whew. Glad to see the girl wound up ok... what a cruel trick to play after she lost her family. But then, I suppose that the monsters in this case probably don't exactly think of it that way. At least, so long as her sister and mother drowning were both an accident. Which it could very well be; which would mean all these spirits do is put out a lure that sometimes humans happen to select. Like how mimic animals don't consciously 'choose' to look like something else. It just happens to work out for them.
I particularly like that they seem to explode into normal(?) marine life. There's something eerie about that. Like are they distinct life on their own, or sort of. This weird amalgam of ocean life to begin with? No clear answers, a'course.
Something about the escaping one yelling 'I remember' over and over as it returns to the sea is particularly chilling. I kind of thought a moment it'd turn out to have the memories of her dead sister.

Oh man I love it when supernatural story include more than just your typical ghost or spirits. I also love the ambiguity. The sea people? Are they aliens? That would explain their UFO shaped vessels. Or are they literally beings that came from the sea? There's a theory stating octopus are alien beings.
