Like others have said this had potential to be so good, but it just jumped off a cliff in the last few chapters. Even the revelation of Shiika witnessing the crime wasn't that bad, it would have been good if it was dealt with better

It's a horrible sense of societal justice on display, where the sins of the parent are met onto the child....Which are then met onto the other parent?

How in the hell did Sumire get there? Did she seriously run from the facility to a graveyard that took Kazuma a car ride to reach? Is the graveyard only a few meters away from the facility? Does she have the legs of an Olympian god? Did she just use a video game fast travel mechanic? This is the thing I have the biggest beef over right now because it legit doesn't make sense with what we know about the geography of the story's setting.

Also, Shuusuke took the Boku no Pico route and had his butthole expanded three sizes like the Grinch's heart on Christmas. Can't feel sorry for him at all.

D-Did this just imply the sister offed herself on an electric wire…?

He's been imagining her presence since getting out. Don't remember which chapter, but it was shown before. She hung herself in her room.

That was absolutely the stupidest chapter. Typical manga where people are committing a flagrant crime in the name of bullying but police are doing nothing, and then the typical "let fight over the knife, oopsie stabbed you in the torso."

Like how tf do you get stabbed in the torso trying to grab a knife...

See? VINDICATION!

It's retardation all around! Hahaha!

I give kudos when it's warranted. Kudos to the MC to not immediately go "I hate that bitch that didn't help my sister!" And actually stop to think for a moment.

Also, another vindication. The mom is interesting. It seems she knows more than she let on.

When the story was about how he was recovering from guilt, it's pretty great and a lot of people can relate to that feeling even if they never had done something as extreme as killing someone. We want to see more of this recovery along with the girl and see how they can support each other, but this arc in particular has been leaning towards the trauma, the thing we wanted for the guy to move on from. I guess this is confronting the trauma in a sense but it's executed with an overabundance of plot twists though I'm glad he knows that to dumb it down the kid just wants Shiika to suffer and this is more centered around Shiika than Kazuma.
For me personally, it's hard to sympathize with Shuusuke, he treats his trauma by affecting the people around him outwardly because inwardly, he sees no chance of redeeming himself. If Kazuma can talk to him, one-on-one, in the hospital after this and make him realize there's still hope, the author can still save this

This is just comically tragic at this point. I can't take this manga seriously anymore. Like they do the most shocking thing possible every chapter it comes off as a parody now

Honestly all these developments would hit way harder over 100 chapters and more individual character development, having them back to back in the span of 10 makes it soap opera tier.

This could have been such a wonderful series about healing together. Overcoming the crushing burden of guilt by leaning on one another.
yeah, it advertised itself to be one, but just turned into another average misery porn series. Hopefully, just hopefully this is just a “it's setting up some more characters and then the great healing commences” not a bait-and-switch redemption
