That panel with their hair blowing back made me lol.
Just ran across this one and thought it was pretty good.
And it's especially notable for being just light and fluffy and amusing, since the mangaka's other works are... not. At all. Even the tiniest bit.
And another person with expectations for Ri-chan to defy...
That was quite the info-dump.
I was sort of curious what was going to happen to this. Early on, it looked like the overarching plot line was going to be the search for Aki's dad and the question of whether or not she'd be able to kill him if they found him and he was a kairi. But then they did and he was and she did and that was that.
So then... what next?
And I guess we just found out. Sort of. Though I have no idea where it's headed next, other than, apparently, winter.
Yep - glasses guy did it, and that's a lot of what this has all been about. I was pretty sure of that.
So has Chiaki manipulated Kouhei into this road trip for her purposes? Or is it something that Kouhei unconsciously did for her benefit? He does apparently have suppressed memories of her, so it's possible he's effectively tricked himself into helping her.
Odd twist that it's even the same car. I'm not sure what to make of that.
Even the mandrakes mock him.
Saw that coming.
Just Right
Yeah... that's the first moment when the mask starts to slip, and you realize you're in for something entirely different than what it initially appeared to be.
Bud seeing Otto walking down the street and calling out to him - Repo Man.
Absolutely.
But that's not what I'm talking about.
I'm talking about making the leap from recognizing that such a being could exist to believing that such a being does exist. That, to me, is so bizarrely irrational that I can't even work out how it is that people apparently actually do it.
