what will todays twist be. Seems the detective is taking things into his own hand, but I presume rather than the husband being the killer, he hired or asked someone, perhaps on the police force to kill them for him while he enjoys, since the husband actually has an alibi.

To me, she reminds of a non-yandere Yuno from Mirai Nikki or someone from Elfen Lied. I think it makes sense her design be so cutesy as it contrasts the plot with the manga.

Man it's actually super fun reading the manga and just trying to find all the panels where Spica has touched someone.

Why the second arc's chapter is so short. the first is like 40-90 page. now it is 20 page

Hopefully the idol stuff is just a cover to explain why she's working at Drink & Donut.

It has to be the detective or his partner. Otherwise they serve no purpose when Spica could just meet the bad guy first hand.

hey can you please put your credits to ONE page, no need for one in the beginning and at the end. If you are looking for recruits, either put it in the front creds or the last. No need for both.
i didn't even notice but you could always ignore it, but a credit page separate from a recruiting page with the info seems pretty common, plenty of ppl also do panel edits/meme texts as well but maybe not in a story this serious (tho i'd think it'd be fine to put it at the end as a reminder considering typesetting takes a while or so and we'd have to be waiting even longer for chapters/not like theyr'e putting an obnoxious water mark on every single page like some webtoons do)

It has to be the detective or his partner. Otherwise they serve no purpose when Spica could just meet the bad guy first hand.
even with the 'torture' room at the end, idk if he'd be the arsonist as opposed to like, just seeking out criminals who 'got off lightly' and 'punishing them', if not just "He JUST got/rented this room" and is planning to target the husband b/c he never moved away (tho other than having 'shady' connections or using a fake name or so, feels like there'd be a paper trail if there's a receipt of the room rental or so)

How did she track down the arsonist guy that fast?!
I guess I’m just supposed to suspend my disbelief in the manga logic here…
She can see peoples pasts simply by touching them and has gotten away with multiple murders while still a teenager, and you're calling 'manga logic' on her tracking some dude down?

I'm sure it is, it's a plausible enough explanation from a 15-16 year old that an adult probably wouldn't challenge, because its cringey to even admit to it.

Well other than 'strict schools' not allowing jobs (assuming she's not bothering to show up anymore or going to show up in various diff schools in the future like Nanno if the next target is also a 'teacher'/someone related), i wouldn't think most ppl need a reason/motivation for wanting a job, even if some ppl wouldn't necessarily wanna get a job while still a minor/high school age and worrying about money (tho i guess "b/c i want money" wouldnt' be a legit answer in interviews or so versus a casual chat with a customer), although i wouldn't rly question why a teenager is working at a donut shop compared to like, her doing some super heavy lifting or so/a factory worker

i'm just more surprised he hasn't aged as badly then again he probably didn't have as much of a stress in his life after his family died compared to the detective (tho would be wild if it's like "actually i moved to Canada 7 years ago" and her willing to go all the way outta the country to stop someone but i imagine other than like a huger person like some yakuza head or so, i don't think it'll take her outta japan or so)
