Yes this chapter is sad though on the bright side the last image of her imagining them hugging is very cute.

 

[Ooshi_Somen]

Literally the main character from ryoko's last work

Komachi did nothing wrong

 

[Baffled]

Man, this is so fucking sad

 

[Saon]

As the oldish meme goes. Right into kokoro. That mother x daughter bonding moment... man.
Be back reading something lighthearted to get back on feet.

Big Thank You for translations.

 

[Pyras]

Best mom right there.

 

[Penthero]

Poor Komachi

 

[Inception92]

That's fukked up.

I was kind of iffy with the reveal last chapter but you know what, i can make sense of this

Her dying message was peer pressure is awesome. I guess that means she'll wait for her friends to jump off a ledge instead of doing it on her own, at least.

Fuck… The fact she trained herself from a young age to be so detached from death that when yet another important person in her life passed she was void of any grief. It’s not really her fault, it’s her trauma.

She lost her father knowing he would die, then her mom got scared that she’d be ostracised for her premonitions (that are very much true). Years later she knows her mom is about to die, the only one who knew her secret and believed in her. She tries to off herself based on the very childish albeit extremely tragic logic that “if I am not here, the black [pain] will go away”. Her mom dies telling her to beware of how dangerous it could be if people know what she sees. She goes to live with family while forcing herself to do as her late mom says, and by the time another close person was “black all over” she denied her feelings so much it ultimately came down to “I am relieved that the worry is now gone because the black is gone (the premonition was fulfilled)”, since she couldn’t exactly claim her cousin (?) was going to die soon and then see people around her look at her like a freak/bringer of bad news.

Yeah, Komako is a victim of her own connection to the supernatural, a bit similar to Satsuki’s tragedy of deciding to avoid the corpse of her mom and failing to notice it was a premonition and distinguishing reality from premonition, but I’d argue it’s even worse because, sadly, the girl is right… people around her seem to die quite a lot. And it may contradict what I said last chapter that correlation doesn’t mean causation but the fact people close to her, not only acquaintances, are dying a lot, feels like a curse.

I think Komachi’s arc will end with her finally offing herself because the belief she’s the reason death is all around the school will become so strong she’s just go “aight imma head out, not like I have anything to lose”.

So my conclusion is that she’s not inherently evil, but the antichrist in the making.

Debatable. She did help the school’s resident psycho, Seo, in her attempts to cause chaos and we could even argue she’s at least a bit responsible for the Prez’s death, since she encouraged Seo to coming back to her ways. But there’s no way of knowing ig…

The bolded part makes me like her more

Suprisingly she got a well direct before her mom gone.
Which is why i can't really see how she go from "I want to spend more time with mom too, if i die maybe the black will gone as well" to "Cheer up, now we don't have to worry about your daughter anymore now that she die"

 

[Marci]

Damn her backstory is so sad I honestly wonder how Satsuki will convince her to live
The moment her mom started to hug her made me want to start sobbing

 

[GuerillaBae]

That mom singlehandedly prevented this girl from becoming a whole supervillain, Jesus. Can't imagine how poorly she'd have adapted to her circumstances without such a caring and loving parent.

 

[Kuroe_Asayuki_15]

Damn, Komachi truly is Tokiko 2.0

This was sad, hard to tell how Satsuki is supposed to even help her

 

[Kuroe_Asayuki_15]

Literally the main character from ryoko's last work

Wouldn’t be surprised if this turns out to be a shared universe with Tokiko as the outliner of the whole “see death” power. She knew death was following her but couldn’t tell who was going to bite the dust or when

 

[Bananimal]

What a miserable existence. I see why she doesn't mind dying, but it's still a messed up moral that sometimes it's okay for someone to be killed.
