Tengoku Daimakyou - Vol. 5 Ch. 31 - Ohma

[Melvin]

Btw, the manga goes on break next month to prepare for Volume 5, so ermm...it's a 2 month wait.

Another great chapter once again, world-building at its best.

 

[Rianadra]

Nice

Strong Brotherhood of Steel vibes from this settlement.

And that glasses girl's power is terrifying; imagine being uncontrollably mind-raped upon a brief eye contact.

The twist is that he dindu nuffin to her and Haruki was one of those facility kids with a body snatching ability. That's why he's freaked that she's here.

Fuck me I just found this manga and red everything... Now what

 

[Melvin]

@RooneyRoo Read Getenrou, the author's Sci-fi Magnum Opus, Soremachi -his fantastic SOL manga and Nemurubaka - a drama about growing up without dreams

I thought somehow the author will make it longer the encounter of Kiruko and Robin and I'm glad that wasn't the case.

So I guess Maru finally found the place he was searching because Robin was in the academy in the last chapter.

Why do I constantly see this manga in the context of trans titles? Some of the main characters is one? I only read a couple of different chapters and I didn't understand what people mean.

 

[Edixo]

Oh shit.

 

[Edixo]

@SuperOniichan Probably because troons cling on to anything that could be used as positive spin for them in the slightest bit, in this case it being a dude whose brain got transplanted into a woman's body. So they go all "oMg ThAt'S tOtAlLy TrAnS rEpReSeNtAtIoN".

 

[SuperOniichan]

@Edixo So, he/she not trans?

 

[Elki]

@Edixo It's almost as if the representation of trans people in the media was overwhelmingly negative, making any positive representation, as flimsy as it could be, a really good thing for them.

@SuperOniichan
Like the other person said, a boy's brain was forcibly transplanted into a girl's body. Both characters had been cisgendered prior to that for all we know. That technically makes the character a trans, but in a sense that doesn't have any direct correspondence in reality since he very literally resides in a foreign body. So I'm not sure if it's anywhere more representative than, say, Your Name which works with the same concept in a fantasy sense.

i knew its robin wasn't good person

 

[NoraDaimio]

OMG.

I 100% thought this wouldn't be happening!!!

 

[Doomroar]

Well here we go, that's a suspicious face he put on.

 

[SuperOniichan]

@moozooh I see. Just out of context, it looked like at some point one of the characters make trans coming out.

i'm thinking the doctor did a brain transplant into robin's head
