Tsumi to Batsu no Spica - Ch. 10 - Confident Serial Killer (1)

[BloodFalcon22]

Behind that shit-eating grin:

1. Pushed perverted old man into a moving subway.
2. Tricked teacher into drinking lethal dose of weed killer.
3. Lit a girl's house on fire with her inside after incapacitating her with drugs.

If you don't escape this edgy phase and clean up your act you're next bucko.

this boy out here thinking he is gonna be a natural killer when he just shops at hot topic yelling at his mom "ITS NOT A PHASE"

 

[gum_rummy]

Alright, everybody get your guesses in on who the culprit's gonna be.

Here's my prediction: the murderer is Tani-san. That tricksy doughnut cook's not getting away with it this time.

Remember Kimura the baseball club member from the first few pages? The killer is surely the guy he was talking to in class.

Oh wow, so we aren't just repeating the same cycle over again, the author is mixing it up a bit. The signaling was that he's just having an edgy phase, not an actual villain now, but it still caught Spica's attention.

I see two routes:
Route A: the guy continues to lie to himself that he's some evil dude, until Spica does something evil in front of him, which scares him shitless into realizing he's just being edgy and not 'the real deal'. Arc ends.
Route B: The guy acts as as a contrast for Spica to realize that she herself is all manner of fucked up and he becomes an important character in trying to 'correct her'. Which of course shouldn't really work out, because in stories like these, Spica is 100% flagged to die / get put in prison in the end. The japanese don't write these vigilantes as 'getting away with it'.

So far, given how short the arcs are, I expect it to just be A. So kind of boring. B would be more fun.

Shoutout to the translator group, the font choices are amazing.

The edge lord arc (I am one hundred percent sure its gonna be a one sided crush and he is going to be the victim of an actual serial killer)

 

[Clover_Zero]

I burst out laughing at the last page LMAO. Didn't expect that.

I burst out laughing at the last page LMAO. Didn't expect that.

So the despair and misery of the scanlation team as they are struggling to find typesetters and redrawers makes you laugh, huh?

 

[smart_fella255]

Are we getting a romcom now? Not that I'm complaining.

 

[ngkn92]

I think the long black hair is the culprit. You know, that one in the title page.

 

[Dranzer86]

Oh this is interesting she's got to stop a guy from being a murderer

 

[DewaDe_]

Crazy

 

[fflogschampion]

Love is in the air.

And I wonder who's getting shanked next.

 

[ZenMasters]

With the way how this manga can go 180' within a single page, I wouldn't bet on it.

 

[Renan_Walheim]

You got a loicense for that box cutter m8?

 

[ryuumajin]

My fucking chuuni-radar BLEEPS hard to this kid.
OH MAI GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

 

[ulokuun]

"Wow she's crazy..."
"Jackpot!"

 

[Gilthwixt]

I think the arc title refers to Spica rather than him, him meeting a true serial killer.

And the thing is, I can't yet imagine him becoming a permanent supporting character in a series like this, so I bet once he does experience the reality of murder he gives up his delusions.

...but naturally since it's this series we're talking about, the author will probably do something wildly unexpected again and I'm way off

 

[bondejeger]

The Dangers in My Heart featuring Tenma-kun.

Also slightly chuuni.

 

[Nekotofu]

Ah yes, rookie serial killer wannabe meet full-time serial killer.
