They literally just did the whole "she's still breathing!" thing so Yorino could have a cool entrance out of nowhere, huh?

So rude giving us a slight sliver of hope, just to take away again in an instant

Looks like I was half right on how chapter 15 would play out.

I dunno about it being rushed with her going mental. I mean, she has been haunted by the death of her friend, and then being responsible for the death of other friends, and now the death of her lover, so yeah, I'd be pissed and a little unstable too if that all happened when I was like, what, like between 11 and 16ish?

Am glad someone else realized that.

Fine story and all but I always get distracted by the two precious things

Ok dumb question but what volume this currently at?

I guess it's ok to wait until using the tragedy tag. We will have to wait until the new raws I suppose.
Also its ok a little bit of drama but c'mon give her a break!
Anyway this series is kinda meh to me, never could connect with any of the characters (maybe because I could foresee the upcoming drama for the sake of drama) in the way Gamma did

I feel like story in this one is all over the place compared to Gamma for example, it definitely does not do any justice for characters - I'm simply unable to care, there's no room for that.
Going back to Gamma again, 2 chapters about Discharge made bigger impact on me that this whole manga by far, newest chapters made things even worse.

Okay, that was just stupid. She's still breathing, and then 2 seconds later dead? I mean...what the hell was that?

I can't even try to fathom what the author is going for with this anymore...

I don't quite know where this is going. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing, I guess. Just waiting for the next release.

I don't know why i get this feeling, but this manga's direction make me feel like some unseen twist, or other McGuffin is coming that will somehow retroactively fix everything. Seems like too much is happening too quickly for this to cleanly resolve in a way that will be satisfying.

Gonna be something lame like the connection between Yorino and Youko is too strong to let Youko die cuz their unborn child needs the energy and makes that sort of connection or whatever, just wait and see, lol

A kind of Gamma feeling, then. Not surprising.

The popularity of sadistic, misogynistic Japanese pornography saddens me.

Yorino deserves to murder, as a threat, be gay do crimes you funky little lesbian. But to be honest i'd be happier if they found a way to resuscitate Youko, like idk the power of love or mure or whatever

This is the very first chapter of this series that made some emotion in me appear. I mean, the manga is not good, you can't connect with any chapter or concentrate in any fight because some gigantic balloons keep stoling the spotlight, but this chapter was the first that was not awful.

Also I don't know what this guy is talking about? Not that I deny what they said, it's just that I don't know why they felt to just blurt it out like that here? Is it some cathartic kinda thing?

While I have a lot of problems with this series and the writing I find the idea of "huge titties = bad series" to be silly. Though I might also be misunderstanding you, and apologies if I am. Still I imagine even if the writing was amazing there would be people calling the series terrible just because of the breast size regardless. Not a line of logic I'll ever follow personally, but alas haha

Unfortunately, that is painfully realistic: people just don't fall over dead immediately, but some of their bodily functions try to keep going as long as they can, so even victims with lethal injuries breathe for a bit even while there is literally nothing anyone can do for them. That's why triage exists in the first place. But I do agree with you that, apart from extra realism, it is unclear what the author wanted to achieve with this plot point.

I also have a feeling that these last few chapters are extremely rushed, which probably means the manga is getting the axe and Ogino Jun is desperately trying to cram the rest of the story in the few chapters he has left. This one chapter essentially contains three episodes: Yorino's rescue and loss of an eye; Youko's death and Yorino's breakdown, with the reveal of Manabe's double in the background; and finally the attack on the Bastion and Yorino's return to action.

Welp if Youko's dead then this is the end for me. I was only in this for Yorino x Youko ╮( ˘_˘ )╭
