When the author is thinking about suicide, but they also like feet.

Minorly inconvenienced and the first thing he does is kill himself. You know what, fair enough.

I wouldn't call: mom dead, killing your father with your own hands, dealing with debt, and bullied at school to be 'minorly'

Me personally I'd just power through.

good for you, but calling it 'minor' is very insensitive to literally anyone in that situation

If it weren't obvious, my first post was about him killing himself immediately after realizing he was locked in a room -- which I reckon is a minor inconvenience.

And even if they misconstrue it I also don't reckon someone who has killed their dad, whose mom is dead, who gets bullied at school, who gets haunted by a fucking ghost, and then gets locked in a room with a convenient rope to hang themselves with a cult banging about upstairs is going to bother much with a random comment on a random manga site by a random user.

I actually thought the last page the tl added was part of the story and was confused af

except that he already tried killing himself, and was thinking about it constantly, before he was locked in . he then decided to try again (and succeeded) only after discussing regrets with a ghost, so nothing indicated being locked in was actually the last straw,, so your post obviously makes no sense.

is going to bother much with a random comment on a random manga site by a random user.

true, but you're missing my point:

you're greatly misconstruing a tragic person's circumstances

also, manga site or not, trivializing something of this level is pretty tasteless and disrespectful ; due to the dead too

 

[RuiRuiKren]

except that he already tried killing himself, and was thinking about it constantly, before he was locked in .

Yeah, I know; it's called a joke. He gets mildly inconvienced. The door's locked. He talks to the ghost, says he thinks he's going to die soon anyway (because the door's locked and he doesnt think to check the window for some reason) and decides to kill himself on the spot as he has a captive audience who literally cannot leave either (again, wouldn't have happened if he weren't locked in the room.)

so your post obviously makes no sense.

Lmao. it does.

trivializing something of this level is pretty tasteless and disrespectful

Something of this level? Christ, I don't comment much here but do all the users jump in to treat fictional things as if they actually happened? The dude turns into a ghost.

If the story treated itself seriously, I probably would too. But nothing like this can happen. And I, like most people hopefully, have the ability to distinguish the real from the unreal.

 

[cgr]

Yeah, I know; it's called a joke.

then add an '/s' , '!!!', or something sort of comical overreaction to indicate it's a joke

you saying 'fair enough' gives the impression that you were serious, so I thought you may not have read properly

Christ, I don't comment much here but do all the users jump in to treat fictional things as if they actually happened?

of course not, but these threads are obviously for discussing fiction.

you trivializing MC's issue just feels like you already hate MC for no reason.

If the story treated itself seriously, I probably would too.

it's only chapter 1 so obviously not certain, 2 ghosts doesn't mean comedy when we don't know what will happen to ghosts yet.
it does treat his issues seriously so far though

 

[RuiRuiKren]

then add an '/s'

Lmao. No offence to people who use tone tags, cause I get they're important in their own way, but if you explicitly have to tell people you're making a joke or being sarcastic, anything you say automatically becomes ten times less funny in my eyes. Same with the exclamation mark thing.

you trivializing MC's issue just feels like you already hate MC for no reason.

See, but you're just being presumptuous; you're attributing the worst possible intention to the things I'm saying when ultimately it's not that deep.

but these threads are obviously for discussing fiction.

Yeah, exactly. It's all fiction. So why then come in with your logic of "it's super disrespectful to say something that" when, again, it's really just not that deep.

The story piles on veritable misery. I thought it was funny being locked in a room was the straw that broke the camels back. Hell, I still think it's funny. So I took the piss.

 

[Kaizerdist]

This some weird shit. I got no clue where this is going, but I'm just interested enough to see where it goes.

Thanks for the chapter.
