weird/abnormal/not normal =/= bad

Being incapable of romantic love is, from practically every perspective, certainly not normal - whether you equate being not normal to bad is on you.

I think that “abnormal” and “uncommon” are two separate concepts and should not be conflated. For example, suppose you are a fan of an obscure post-punk band — it is very uncommon, since they would not have many fans, but by no definition would it be considered “weird” since it doesn’t really matter in daily life. I think this is what people mean when they talk about “normalization” of things; it’s not about numbers, it’s about acceptance. In an ideal world maybe nothing would be considered “weird” since people could just accept it, but it definitely exists as a concept today alongside normality, uncommonness and the morally wrong.

I feel like that’s the point though. None of the other deaths have been special so far — it’s used to show that the curse doesn’t differentiate. Tokiko doesn’t get to choose just because it was her friend; that would diminish the power of the curse and not succeed in the manga’s goal of critiquing Tokiko’s outlook on life. Also, the abruptness only makes it more impactful IMO.

Oh, I hope her friend doesn't die...

I doubt she will; so far it's only ever been people that have fought her that have died. Probably the same reason why the detective got miraculously saved from the truck, since he hasn't ever gotten angry at her.

Is the cat huffing a reference to https://en.uncyclopedia.co/wiki/Kitten_Huffing?

I can only assume the next chapter will be called "Secret of the Secret of the Secret"

They finally introduced Nagisa I'm so happy ^-^

I wonder how she works in this universe. So far she's only been explained by literal divine intervention. Is she actually a witch?
