Normality and Monsters - Vol. 1 Ch. 9

[Shtoops]

Love triangle??? Takahashi is gonna be jealous and not understand it.

 

[enthusiastically.y]

BRO WHY ISN'T SHE DEAD YET 😭 she literally outted herself 2 TIMES and they BOTH wanna be besties with her?

 

[saturna13]

SLENDERMAN?????????

 

[Yurisivel]

Slender gyaru was not something I expected. Welcome nonetheless. Sad Mr. Niehara didn't have something more to him.

 

[redscizor]

damn it.. the monster turned from slenderman to a shark toothed cutie. my one (of many) weakness

I can fix the alien (?)

 

[Gustbk]

This slenderperson just became a cute waifu? Takahashi has some competition considering her camouflage is just a normal “perfect” girl

 

[Balla]

Harem plus one

 

[solamente]

BRO WHY ISN'T SHE DEAD YET 😭 she literally outted herself 2 TIMES and they BOTH wanna be besties with her?

they mutually outed themselves tho - as weirdos. This is an extremmely good foundation for bestieship

 

[Tradantsa]

FFF

 

[HamBone]

Is that fucking Slenderman

 

[lowarctic]

she’s outfreaking the monsters so they’re obsessed with her lmao

 

[KairakuSensei]

Ah fuck, it’s cute. I can’t wait to see what else shows up

 

[Quern]

With the title i expect all the 'boring'/normal ppl MC comes across in the future to also have a monster form or be connected lol

That, uh... Wasn't the part I wasn't expecting

 

[recklessribbon]

Oh no... She's hot!

Just started reading this series and really loving it. Thanks for the translation!

...this manga is very neurodivergent in the best way.

"Oh, you're a monster, but you don't make me uncomfortable. Other people make me uncomfortable, but non-humans don't." Fucky. I love it.

Itou notes in chapter 8 that she disliked the teacher while he was alive. "His eyes always looked like he was appraising something in us. I hated those eyes." Itou also immediately connects the teacher's gaze to the scene he witnessed in the storage shed: "I still don't know what he did to Takahashi-san behind these doors." And now in chapter 9, before she tells the new monster that she is not uncomfortable, she says "You aren't Mr. Niehara" instead of just "you aren't human" or something similar.

That's why I think in chapter 9 by "uncomfortable" she does not only mean anxiety that an awkward girl might feel around every human, but a more specific sense of wrongness caused by the teacher (who might have been a sexual predator) specifically. Though in chapter 9 she also clarifies that the teacher did not necessarily (or only) appraise the girls' bodies, but whether they're "normal good girls", and Itou failed in his eyes in this aspect. (It's pretty likely that Takahashi was targeted by the teacher because she came across as a "normal good girl".)

While Itou might have some kind of neurodivergence going on, I think it's pretty 'normal' to be creeped out by a person in this way, and her opinion on the teacher does not necessarily reflect how she feels about other humans.

 

[Manchura]

All of these monster probably are just genderfluid

I don't think cosplaying for the sake of predation is genderfluid...

but it's a bold claim to make about the topic

 

[Redsaint]

so either we gonna get a monster battle with both wanting to eat her or we go harem route with her collecting multiple “monster girls”.
come on harem route! Let’s add an undead and alien to round it off!

 

[Brok3NJays]

Is that supposed to be slanderman 💀

 

[00nowhereman]

Smash, next.
