Tsumi to Batsu no Spica - Ch. 30 - Spica's Summer Break (1)

Seems we got a mystery among people, and of course the most innocent looking is the guilty one XD

Thanks for the chapter

HUH, we're doing classic remote villa in the middle of the mountain situation
but I think old glasses guy is the real baddie

I would say “most innocent” is prolly headband guy, tho other than full on “evil” I expect him to be pressured into it or manipulated if not also shocked and trying to help but end up making things worse /backfiring

Rereading , mugshot does mention homocide of a family, maybe one of the people in the group is a relative trying to their own revenge

Aw hell yeah murder lodge! A classic

My bet is on the influencer lady.

My bet is on the influencer lady.

I half expect literally all of them to be in it with the exception of maybe one, if not "they aren't all murderers but they're still caught up in shady stuff/still technically criminals"

 

[EchoGirl]

Gonna be some Agatha Christie type shi

https://kodansha.us/series/the-decagon-house-murders/ well, there's this. wiki says it's literally based off the agatha christie book lol

This arc is giving Kindaichi vibes.

Shady part time in a remote location ☑️
cheery fellow part timer ☑️
seemingly random guests plus one shady looking one ☑️

The setup is straight up Kindaichi. Show up at a new place for a random reason like 'oh a new part time job' then meet all the possible suspects one by one, with their name age and occupation listed in the same panel. Anyway Kindaichi is the best so looking forward to this knock off version!

On Tetris: error #2 is the piece queue not updating in last panel. Error #3 is ghost for pieces displaying wrong in a random floating position, and its rotated position. Unless that is trying to depict movement somehow. Then that's just a weird way of doing it.

Seriously author/artist, why tetris associated with the crazy serial killer MC? Some reference to other media I'm missing?

I can't get past that damn tetris piece. It's not the same piece

Seriously, how could they mess that up.

I think it might be a hint. Now that you mention it, look closely at the game board. She presumably drops that line piece to make a Tetris. Could it be that there are precisely 4 criminals? Are they all about to be cleared at once? The author has shown that everything is Chekhov's Gun before...

 

[Birdulon]

Love the passionate discourse in the Tetris fandom (?)

just the shape rotation fandom

Other than Spica’s “OCD” making her kill the “mis button” herself,

I think it might be a hint.

Maybe the hint is that her sense of misbuttoning is abnormal and/or incomplete, she sees no problem with Mirror Tetris! What other clues will she mistake for normality...

Why do i get the feeling Spica didnt chose this job by acident.
Time to hunt some murder.

I would love to see the JP side of the comments to see if they're as bothered by this

Is it ever an accident with Spica? XD; esp saying "i've seen that man before" even without the influencer showing his mugshot, tho i guess it's good her donut shop is flexible enough to give her time or so unless every part timer teen would normally just enjoy their vacation or focus on 'summer homework'. Since i guess being able to bump into ppl helps her 'hobby' but i wouldn't be surprised if she finds a /second/ serial killer hunting down a diff one or so lol

Almost enough to make me drop the series. This whole comic is about attention to detail
