And that's all for today! One event can drastically alter your life.How's your life going?
where's shouko...
>>291906351uoh
>>291906351oh no
>>291906508>How's your life going?Not good. But, better than Yuuna's. Holy shit. That is so bleak.
Thanks, OP!
>>291906351The husband >>291906339The wife
>>291906452>bump into some retard>life forcibly stumbles down hell routeTeach your daughters to at least have Satou levels of combat prowess. Will save everyone a lot of grief.
>>291906475Average corruption hgame plot
>>291906508that escalated too fast
>>291906508Thank you, OP.Could be better, could be worse.
>>291906508Thank you OP!>How's your life going?Looking forward to Christmas vacation.
>>291906508Ahahahah that made me laugh for how fast and sudden it was, what a throwaway plot point, we're not supposed to take this seriously anymore, are we?
>>291906508Thanks op.>How's your life going?Just cruising along, surviving day by day, it's not bad
>>291906508Can deadbeat assholes really just grab JKs off the streets, put some baby batter in them and call it a day with no prob?
>>291906452The start of the best romance story never told.
>>291913411No, they can't, this manga is extremely unrealistic when it comes to crimes and their consequence (and lack of police involvement).DESU, it's pretty badly written and veeery dumb all in all
>>291906885In the art room..
>>291914198Yeah. I like trashy stuff like this so I'll keep reading, but the whole "everyone is a psycho or quickly turned into one" and "adults are all incompetent" thing is pretty silly.
>>291914393That's why I honestly think we're not supposed to take this story seriously.It's literally a farce
Satou's true love is not a farce!
>>291906508Thank you for posting, OP.
>>291906351Huh, that's quite risqué.>>291906414If only it were that easy.>>291906486Apprently it was, for her. Except this >>291906426 did not come to pass.>>291906508Thanks, OP. Aimlessly, but okay for what it is.
>>291914484I don't think farce is the right word. Maybe campy? Or edgelord
>>291920622It's an involuntary farce, because the situation are so absurd, tragedy is so omnipresent and everyone is so fucked up that it becomes comedic and laughable, to me at least.That's probably not the author's intention though, but he doesn't seem to be very good at building the world, its characters or realistic scenarios, he just goes overboard every time
>>291920673bomp
>>291920673Partly, but partly it's also poor imagination regarding the depths of human depravity and misery. As is told about some real events being too improbable to be ever written as fiction, because people would complain that such a thing is implausible to the point of absurdity.
>>291924184Oh I'm well aware of how depraved and monstrous humans can be.My argument is that if all people are like that, as it seems in this manga, then that monstruosity becomes normal and expected, and thus boring and comedic.When the author introduces a new character or story line, now I think "I wonder how fucked up the author will make this" and then I laugh when it actually turns out as fucked up as I thought
>>291924672They aren't. Some of the characters are unfortunate but quite sane (Shouko (RIP), Shio and her brother), others are mad in an entirely ordinary way (both of Shio's parents), bad but normal (the park miscreants (RIP)), and many others are entirely normal people who don't stick their noses where they don't belong (Satou's classmates, most of her coworkers, cosplay cafe boss, the policewoman). Not to forget the artist, who was mad but not in an unrealistic way (inb4 that's stupid, what do you want? Guy kills millions of jews, because he couldn't do the art he wanted and they teach whole history classes about him, but when a guy tries to kill one single kid for the same reason it's suddenly "dumb" and "laughably absurd"?)
>>291925312All the main characters are still fucked up, side characters are almost non-existant and they don't play a significant role anyway.Shio isn't sane (no one sane would remain with Satou), her brother isn't sane (obsessed with Shio). Shouko was the sanest individual but also the dumbest, her death was one of the dumbest death I've ever seen, I'm honest. Those dudes from the park are far from "normal".At least where I live, "normal" people don't beat homeless kids in parks.The police is non existant, Shouko's friends and family are still nowhere to be seen after her death, same thing for the artist, obviously also mad as you said as well.
>>291925460>Those dudes from the park are far from "normal".>At least where I live, "normal" people don't beat homeless kids in parks.This exemplifies your whole complaint. You live a sheltered life and then complain that people being mean is absurd to the point of being funny.
>>291925536Sheltered?You don't know me.Normal people I know don't beat kids in parks, I wouldn't. Would you?Those who do are called criminals where I live, not "normal" people.Also, remember we're reading about one of the most "sheltered" people in the world.And yes, I absolutely stand by what I said: when every single main or important character in a manga has some sort of mental illness, when every situtation is tragical for the sake of tragedy and misery porn, then it becomes farcical, repetitive and comedic, rather than tragic or sad.
29th Life: My Completely Ordinary Life II
Parallel Life: The Sweet, The Twisted, The Pained
And that's all for today! Marriages are supposed to be happy. Do you want to get married?
Man, Auntie is such a crazy bitch. Why does it arouse me, damn it.
>>291927197Don't stick it in a crazy anon
>>291927121>Do you want to get married?Yes!I really like this chapter, it was fun reading about Satou and Yuuna. I wonder if Auntie was ever visited by Yuuna's husband? They'd seem like a match made in Hell, lol.
Thank you, OP!
>>291927121lol, marrige even today is just binding contract to combine both parties assets or just a way to get access to a green card
>>291927121Thank you for posting!
These recent chapters sure are depressing.
>>291930929It's probably only going to get more depressing if Satou and Shio run into her brother and Shio chooses Satou over him. That's personally what I think all these parallels are building up to.
>>291926946That explains why the wedding vows are so important for Shio and Asahi
>>291927121Thank you, OP.No.
>>291927121Thanks op.>Do you want to get married?Absolutely not.All married couples I know have divorced at least once.Love is fake and temporary anyway
>>291927197I get you.She's hot and looks fun to be with for a night of bliss
>>291930929Are we out of the anime part already?
>>291933968The anime does cover up to the end, but this volume largely a flashback volume gets skipped for time
>>291927121Marriage for the purpose of securing offspring? No, thanks, putting children in today's world would be doing them a disfavour.Besides that, it's just for social status and tax reasons.
>>291934050>The anime does cover up to the endNTA but that's good to know, I think I'm gonna watch the anime, too.
>>291926802That's pretty hot.>>291926840Her parents fucked up. Just take the money and run. His daddy managed to secure a wife for his deadbeat son though.
>>291934362>Her parents fucked up.So unexpected, that's never happened before!
>>291906475>>291906486but I thought women loved rapechads???
>>291934737Well she didn't run away, did she?
>>291927121Thank you for posting. Not at all.
>>291934362Izza-.. I mean, honor cultures are great, aren't they?
>>291934115>Besides that, it's just for social status and tax reasons.There are literally millions of happy marriages out there that have their basis in love.Maybe you'll find someone someday.
>>291939695If there are milions of happy marriages (very doubtful in this day and age, maybe elderly couples, who got married in a better world), there are billions of divorces.I personally know dozens if not hundreds of married individuals, only 1 or 2 (ONE or TWO) have not been divorced at least once!And also, I know no young people in their 30s or 20s who wants or plans to get married.Suffice to say that the institution of marriage is almost over here
>>291939993You'll never find someone with that attitude
>>291940928That's fine
>>291934142The anime was a pretty good adaptation
>>291939695If you are happy living together with somebody, why do you need to marry?
>>291939993It's more likely these days than in the past. Until ~200 years ago marriages were arranged and love wasn't considered at all, and until even just ~70 years ago it was still overwhelmingly for survival or social pressure. Women weren't allowed to be self-sufficient so men were forced to provide for them, meaning young people got married to the first person that'd take them and were stuck together for the rest of their lives. You only had enduring love if you were lucky; usually, you just got resentment, infidelity, and more than likely abuse.In the modern day, fewer people get married and those who do are more likely to get divorced, but that's a consequence of being able to freely choose who you marry. It's not a bad thing. It just means that the marriages that endure are between people who sincerely love one another.Obviously with the internet fucking everything up and the economy going south, things are tipping too far in the opposite direction, but it's still far better off than it was when marriage was just about buying a slave that hates your guts. At least nowadays you don't have to watch your back or risk a surprise serving of picrel.
>>291927121Thank you OPI wish I could find someone to marry
30th Life: My Completely Ordinary Life III
>>291948089At the same time!
>>291948000that's rough
Parallel Life: Then, in the Cold Rain
And that's all for today! Yuuna was very fortunate that Asahi was easy to raise. But raising Shio is a different story.Did you cause trouble growing up as a kid?
Y'know if Satou and Asahi just had one good conversation with each other I'm sure they could have worked something out
>>291948089Comical
>>291948330Good stuff.
>>291948089I mean, we knew this was going to end in tragedy, but that's just mean.
Oh hey it's the world's unluckiest young woman
>>291948089This manga is just misery porn jfc
>>291948330>Did you cause trouble growing up as a kid?I don't recall. I know I was a real pain in middle school, though. Thanks again, OP. I hope Asahi's mom gets a happy ending out of this manga, at least, and gets to reunite with her kids!
>parents change their mind and want to reconnect with their estranged daughter >diesAre you sure this isn't a comedy?
>>291945725I think you're generalizing too much.Elder couple who got married in 1920s are among the happiest couples, so I think you're wrong.It is a fact that marriages have been decreasing as well as long-lasting relationships, so I would argue things have not been improving despite (or because of) all this new freedom.I don't really care either way, but saying marriage is good or love is good is as biased as saying it's bad. It depends. What I do know is that the thing men have to worry about, today, is divorce. >You only had enduring love if you were lucky;Just the same as today
>>291948089Ahahahahahahahah this author man WTF
>>291948118So he does that in a public space and no one does anything?A question: how many chapters are left?I can bear it for so long, this is getting ridiculous
>>291948178At some point it becomes your fault for not doing anything...
>>291948330Thanks op>Did you cause trouble growing up as a kid?A lot, especially at school, I'm a rebel at heart so if teachers told me to do something, I would do the exact opposite just to challenge their "authority", which I believed (and still believe) wasn't earned but given to them by society. As a consequence, I was a very good kid with those teachers and professors who actually earned my respect through their efforts, and a little shit with everyone else.Still a "problem" I'm dealing with.
>>29195237117 to go plus some extras.
>>291950182Could be worse, she could be growing up in Bradford.
>>291947917>If nothing goes wrongYeah...>>291947928:(>>291948089Huh? Come on now.>>291948330Thanks, OP. I don't think so.
>>291948330I don't think I was ever raised, just did my own thing at home. That didn't seem to bother my parents. Never fit in at school so the teachers had their hands full with that weirdo kid.
>>291947928Just homeschool him so he doesn't become tainted by the outside world.>>291952371Most likely his Dad's employees so they wouldn't want to upset the new pinatas/boss man.
>>291906334Ty op
>>291948330Thank you for posting.
>>291948330I was a good kid growing up
>>291951052This manga is a lot more than that, it's actually trying to convey something substantive (even if it may be hard to put into words).If you want real misery porn, look up the author of that Haruhi slap doujin. That guy is properly mentally ill - and I mean that literally. The only thing his work conveyed is that the author belongs in a mental institution.
>3 days old "daily" thread?? Just let it die or dump the next chapter idiot.
justice for shouko
>>291963145Sorry, the tread is taking up space reserved for one of the dozen circlejerk generals, isn't it.
>>291966705The "daily" thread isn't serving its purpose. At least dump the next chapter faggot.
31st Life: In the Jar, One Drop of Love
And that's all for today! This marks the end of volume 7. Shio is more than happy to fill Satou's empty jar with happiness.How's your jar faring? Is it breaking? Does it have anything to make it sparkle?
>>291967584
>>291967372Nooooo :(
>>291963085>Haruhi slap doujinWhat? Sauce??
>>291967206So bleak. No truer words have ever been spoken.
>>291966844Don't be rude. What do you contribute to this board, mouth breather
>>291967584>How's your jar faring? Is it breaking? Does it have anything to make it sparkle?Jar status: UncertainThank you, as always, OP (Happy Halloween!)
>>291968335A page from it where Kyon slaps Haruhi used to be posted pretty frequently here as a meme.But don't expect anything erotic, it's genuinely unhinged. Everyone is just miserable and evil or indifferent, preferably both at the same time in an apathetic kind of way. Except Mikuru, who is pathetic. It's hard to convey properly.
>>291968485>>(Happy Halloween!)Tomorrow is Halloween. Why is everyone celebrating on the 30th? October has 31 days.
Happy Halloween! I'm going as a guy with an unbroken love jar.
>>291967480Okay, I'll just wait and see, but lol if that isn't metaphor and Shio is Actually Magical
>>291948089
>>291906351love
>>291906351cutie cutie
>>291967584thanks
