Usotsuki Satsuki wa Shi ga Mieru - Vol. 9 Ch. 83 - Future

[Deadhunt]

Huh

 

[ym824]

There's always gonna be people complaining about the ending no matter what it is

 

[fsadddfsa]

Ah I still remember picking this up and doing a few chapters before that one fellow came and took over. Oh the good old days when I still had the time to translate.


Tbh I'm pretty unsatisfied with how this ended, a lot of things felt unanswered and Akira had like, way more bonding and screen time than Komachi yet Komachi's the pairing we're going with? It kind of feels like she barely interacted with Satsuki though maybe I'm misremembering things.

 

[jrocker]

It was a great story but the ending is missing 3 things:
1) What happened to the VP?
2) Is Satsuki going with Komachi or Akira (Akira is def best girl)?
3) Is Seocchi going to get her final revenge?

 

[tommp2709]

The ending is really rushed imo, but at least it is happy

 

[definitionofinsanity]

So uh... we just gonna leave Akira living with her abusive dad, then? Or did that get resolved and I just forgot about it?

She moved in with her mother ages ago, dude.

 

[deathpigeon]

1) What happened to the VP?

She's emotionally devastated and probably will never recover.

2) Is Satsuki going with Komachi or Akira (Akira is def best girl)?

Komachi and we'll likely get more details in the extras.

3) Is Seocchi going to get her final revenge?

No. She's in prison. That would be stupid.

Like, where was it going to go from here? The president is dead, Komacchi's deal is in the open and being dealt with. The plot has been wrapped up and the themes were pretty strongly communicated in the end. This is a bit abrupt, but, like, if it continued, it had, like, one or two additional chapters in it before it just fizzled out.

And we're getting a couple of additional chapters anyway with the two extras, so, like, we can see more of where they're at now.

Yeah it was ending regardless and the author said it was ending. There wasn't anything much left to touch on. Maybe some were still somehow holding out for something from Akira but that's not happening. Satsuki and Komachi are moving forward. I'll be looking out for those two extras that follow Komachi and Satsuki too.

BTW thanks for your work. It always stands out!

There's a ton of things that could have been done. This has been labelled a Girl's Love manga... well... that never fucking happened and we were blue-balled over that. That's one possibility to focus on.

Also, you could continue on other angles. Like Satsuki or Komachi going into the medical field (Satsuki's dad is a doctor, after all) and using their abilities there and dealing with trying to convince people that they know without seeming crazy.

Or maybe them helping the science teacher out on figuring how their powers work a'la Interviews With Monster Girls.

There's a lot you can still do with it.

 

[definitionofinsanity]

the fact Michiru was a victim was never brought up by Miho (she stole her phone, after all), which means Prez never had to face it before dying and VP is none the wiser about it...

No, the VP very much knew about it because she was aware of his plans and was helping him.

At the very least, can't we all be glad that President motherfucker died? And that he had it coming?

 

[shemper]

Honestly, the ending doesn't surprise me, the romance aspect were never a priority, though i obviously would have liked just one more chapter to have those two a bit closer
Thank you for your work!

There's always something you could make up but that wasn't this story.

Ok, sure they could do either of those, but it would be a bad idea and they shouldn't. It would make the whole project thematically weaker and the plot less tightly constructed. At that point, they'd be continuing for the sake of continuing and, if you're doing that, then you should just end the story.

That's not the point. The point is it could have been.

Explain why.

It would make the whole project thematically weaker and the plot less tightly constructed

Explain how? Because we went off into the fucking weeds from the initial scope of this manga a long time ago. We had introduced another guy with Satsuki's exact powers that was going around being a fucking serial killer and the manga REPEATEDLY hinted at Satsuki's meddling and stopping murders as some Final Destination-esque thing. Even in the first volume, IIRC, it shows Satsuki surrounded by dead bodies and blood in the classroom implying that what she's doing will make things even worse. Along with Prez STATING THIS VERY REASON to her.

So you say it would thematically weaken the plot and make it less tightly constructed... And I'm asking how the hell you don't think Prez did not do that for... what... 40+ chapters?

There is a reason myself and a bunch of other people were literally celebrating that motherfucker getting ganked.

But on the flipside, in my scenarios, it's still Satsuki's power being the focal point of the story. Whereas for the last... so many god damn chapters... we had other people being a foil to Satsuki the cornerstone of the plot.

 

[undeadclown]

Akira got absolutely done dirty by this ending.

idk i think he was more realistic then satsuki, he pretty much just went after people who hurt others. I'd rather he be the mc then satsuki tbh.

...Yeah, no, it's not more realistic for people to be a serial killer. That's... no.

 

[kavinh]

...Yeah, no, it's not more realistic for people to be a serial killer. That's... no.

he didn't kill anyone directly, also i guess in your mind its more realistic for a highschool student to go around stopping people's death like a super hero

 

[Riorio56]

I still don't understand the fate main villain girl with long black hair but this Manga is pretty amazing journey. Thank you for the translation. Also although many people's saying this being axed i think this is pretty good ending because there no main villain anymore the mastermind already showing herself and not every Manga should become conan
