Thanks for the chapter!
How often do cannabis dealers kill each other?
I assume since people don't get withdrawal or severe addiction, people aren't as willing to commit crime for it. But then again maybe the dealers skill kill each other over territory.

As a long term drug user of everything besides opiates, let me tell you this. Cannabis is addictive as fuck especially if you become dependant on it. I've seen people pawn all their possessions, skip paying for food and rent, whore themselves out and take up selling even worse products just to keep themselves in supply.

I myself will only by a g or two so that I can run out and get sober. I have a bunch of drugs in the freezer I feel no need to touch but will enjoy on a night out or a perfect spring day but weed? If I have it I feel compelled to smoke it, I'll make excuses to smoke it. If I'm offered it, I won't resist even to my detriment.

That being said, I've never had any violent altercations around it and I've never known anyone who has died dealing it. I dealt it for a bit myself. The old, if you sell more than you smoke, you aren't actually paying anything for the weed.

Most dealers are down to hang out with each other, swap weed strains and trade weed for other drugs. It's the people who don't take drugs who are the problem. They can be merciless when it comes to selling, debt trapping crack heads and junkies, cutting product, selling to minors and smuggling into jails. They're capitalists through and through.

The scene has gotten a lot cleaner due to the darknet markets though, product is clean, usually overweight, sometimes comes with promo products, cheaper and you don't pay until the drugs show up in the mail.

This manga is going hard on the factual awareness of drugs. Besides the "Stimulants or cocaine" cocaine is a stimulant.

The main danger I'm guessing for Japan is that due to it's illegal and culturally rejected status, to make a decent profit off it, you have to deal with nefarious people.

In my country it's illegal but it's culturally accepted to the point where it's harder to find people against it's use than otherwise even if they don't smoke and never plan to.

Japan needs one of those psychosis inducing strain(s) too high on everything to learn on american lesson.Too early I bet, gotta make it a legal industry first to further ruin society.

His wife is going to end up needing cannabis as a pain reliever wont she?

 

[EchoGirl]

given the stressful situation surprised he hasn't smoked or gotten secondhand high himself even tho with the phrase 'don't get high on your own supply' lol

His wife is going to end up needing cannabis as a pain reliever wont she?

IDK if she got any kinda pain medication after being discharge but hopefully it won't interfere with anything else, even if ppl say weed isn't 'as bad' in some cases i can imagine some ppl still having unpleasant experiences

i wonder how much research the author put into it, even while it's tech fiction imagine if he somehow got arrested over this lol
