Felt bad about that girl but loved those business tactics, especially for the candy.

At first I thought the bunny had drawn a building for the local nazi group, but then I remembered that a lot of Asian countries don't have that same association with the symbol that the west does. That made a whole lot more sense.

IDK Japanese people should know exactly what it means. They were nazi Germany's allie in the war.
However I know if you draw the design with arms turned one way it's the nazi symbol, if you draw the arms the other way it's just some old religious symbol. I want to say buddhist, but don't quote me on that. The trouble is I don't remember which way is which. And I don't really want googling nazi stuff in my search history. So I'm going to be outraged by the nazi bunnies to be on the safe side.

Yeah lol I came to the comments just for this. The swastika was originally a Buddhist symbol, and in countries where Buddhism is popular its pretty much the symbol of Buddhism, on par with he cross for Christianity. It dosen't quite have the same weight as the cross, but it is still a very popular symbol used throughout history in buddisht art and architecture. So the symbol likely is just to denote the local Buddhist temple.

While the nazi party did appropriate the symbol, it still exists across numerous ancient statues and temples. As a result, in those countries, the swastika's tie to the nazi party is secondary to its religious meaning, since most people growing up there will see the symbol numerous times in Buddhist imagery before they ever learn any sort of WWII history.

One must also note that Hitler created the design mostly from his childhood memories of seeing similar patterns in various churches,albeit,I don't know how much he knew of the original swastika when making his final draft.

What I can say as a guarantee is that trusting the randomly selected Japanese person to actually have good history education is more of a gamble then any plain ol' casino,because I have interacted with Japanese people who still didn't know what Malaysia was even after telling them where Japan began their invasion hours before Pearl Harbour was struck.

At times it's kinda trippy. Good to see there's still more of it to come.

What I wanna know is what the swastika actually represents in this case. Is it a religious building?
(checks Wikipedia)
Aha! "On Japanese maps, a swastika (left-facing and horizontal) is used to mark the location of a Buddhist temple."

So, um, does anyone else feel like, in the background, there are gradually more and more rabbits and fewer and fewer humans? It's like there's this insidious takeover going on.

This proves my theory, that Gay Panic can put a girl in an altered mental state. Allowing her to solve complex computations, while freaking out over her crush's naked body.

We have just solved the world's energy crisis!

That's it huh, honestly didn't know what to think of this one it was pretty surreal, some of the chapters where they would search for each other in the empty city were almost haunting. I half expected it to be revealed that they were lost souls or something. But hey congrats to Maho on becoming a mathematician with the power of gay-panic.

I wonder if this just got axed before the author could start to explain whatever the fuck she was writing.

I feel like those chapters where the later half would be just them calling each other's names in an empty city surely were meant to go somewhere.

You know, an ending that gives zero answers or any sort of closure is rather apt for a manga like this.
