What if it's Shiori the one that will end up eaten? Isn't there a Japanese folk belief that eating mermaid flesh would grant you immortality or some other divine benefit like that?

Speaking of mermaid takoyaki, this is how I initially misread the last panel on this page:

I'll live with a smile no matter what kind of hellish seafood I have to endure.

There's a series called Mermaid Scar. Let's just say be careful what you wish for...

The deeper we go, the more unnerving this setting becomes. With no reference to the author's other work, it feels like a coinflip as to where it is going.

Does anyone really think that rotting things taste the most delicious... I suppose it's different for a mermaid though. Also, I never knew that gourmet could be used to describe a person, so that's interesting.

People in Iceland think rotting shark tastes the most delicious, so there's one example.

Cheese. Yogurt. Wine. We call it "fermenting" but it's decomposition by bacteria or fungi.

Blue cheese has bacteria and mold. Yum!

Then there's Nattō and Tofu, all by products of soybeans.

Tofu is coagulated, not fermented/rotted. Natto does qualify (bacterial), as does kombucha (which is another yeast + bacteria tag team.)

It's Miko-chan from chapter #3, she'd invited her to the festival but was declined, so she'll be shocked to see her there eh? Especially with 'that girl'.

Whale blubber is usually eaten raw by the Inuit (Canada and Russia's high north people, mostly) and also when rotten. It's supposed to be really amazingly delicious, once you get over the texture... and good for you too.

Damn...when she finally no longer wants to die, that's when she's going to kill her, huh...

Hmm! The plot thickens!

miko is hot. I hope she's really just protecting hinako since day 1 and no other malicious intent

joined Oct 10, 2016

Well seems Miko is secretly some kind of monster hunter. But we'll see if Vol 2 ever comes out.

Cuz I don't think Miko is second monster here.

The prayer beads certainly seem to indicate that. Especially considering Shiori wondering how she hasn't been harmed up to now.

Beads and her name is literary Miko. They are lying "hints" pretty thick. We can assume that frequent absences from school = beat a monster, got fucked up.

Is it bad that I want Miko to destroy Shiori and live happily ever after with Hinako?
