are you kidding me just read the last few chapter they’re back in the past AGAIN god at least give me mullet mitsuya
LMAOOO
“rather then restlessly trying to hold on, it’s better to reluctantly let go” this manhwa keeps on hitting a bit too close to home
i’ve just finished reading all this after seeing it appear in my home yesterday. it had been a very long time since a shonen ai had me this hooked ;-; i loved every bit of it, how had i never heard anything about it? the drawings are stunning, the characterization of the characters is so on point and their relationship? loved how introspective this was, loved reading the honest and genuine and HUMAN thoughts of there characters as they went through everything, i honestly hope someone will pick it up for good cause i can’t wait for the next updates
trying to make me pity mizuha i see what you’re doing there..
it honestly kind of irks me the way “love” is starting to be seen as the most important topic here, as if a person must understand romantic love to fully comprehend life. remember, not everyone experiences this kind of emotion. on the contrary, i really hope fushi will prove just this. don’t know if i’m getting this through but i wouldn’t really like the teaching behind it, i just hope he will understand it in terms of “oh, i get it... it’s not my thing” lol
it's as if being asexual is a strange nonexistent concept...that fact annoys me in most stories.
exactly. honestly, it would be so weird to me if he got involved in some way. people justify it as “love is a complex emotion, he still has to get it”, it’s been literally 800 years? it would make no sense to me since he’s already grasped all other emotions since forever
I agree with you but i think he needs to experience love because thats one of the biggest parts of being human
Also they shouldve had him fall in love in the earlier parts of the story that wouldve made some death and part much more painful
not everyone necessarily falls in love in a romantic way, i don’t really think romantic love is one of the biggest parts of being humans, asexual and aromantic people exist - it also doesn’t really make sense the way he can’t even grasp it after 800 years since he’s already mastered any other emotion
Ik and from what i can tell hes alredy experienced love in other ways there wasnt any need for this modern arc in general
exactly!!! i didn’t think it would be once again centered on this topic, tho i hope they added it to grant fushi’s wish of trying to make everyone live happily
Yeah well love comes it all shape and form and "romantic love" isn't the only love the exist. It's kinda like stereotype. Fushi indeed is in love with all his friends and I think the kinda love is the most purest one and as for romantic love I don't think he will love someone that way also hayase and her bloodline aren't actually "in love" with fushi they are just obsessed over him
exactly what i think, he’s made it clear more than a few times, whenever someone mentions love he replies “i love everyone!” with the purest look on his face, i’d be really disappointed if the author’s aim is actually getting him to understand romantic love to complete his path as a human
i’ve just realized hayase & co might be my most hated characters ever, i only kind of miss kahak (lmao says a lot), but listen. kahak had tried to force his feelings on fushi but eventually led to a nice discourse surrounding love + in the end he just wished for fushi to be happy and k*lled himself for that. why are we doing all this all over again. mizuha is once again forcing herself on fushi and i literally can’t stand it anymore, i genuinely don’t know what the plot is adding compared to the past arcs
i honestly hope all of these attempts in trying to force fushi to understand love (kahak, hayase in general, now tonari - tho she’s not forcing him to do anything) will somehow result in him realizing he doesn’t need romantic love to feel human :/ i don’t know how after all these centuries it would be like to see him engaging in a relationship, i understand “he doesn’t understand” but may it not just be because he’s not interested in love? he’s understood friendship quite immediately, what’s the point in all this? people say tonari might be the only one (well it can’t be hayase or imma kms) but i would still find it quite weird and i don’t really think he would feel the same way (oh my god why is this giving me tokyo ghoul :re vibes ew) - i just think the way he cares deeply for everyone in the same way is so pure, and it can definitely be enough :/ we’re still talking about love, it doesn’t have to be sexual or romantic at all
i quite dont understand what the hell can fushi do other than as the man in black hood said '' become the water, become everything, become complete '' . The more story continues the more it seems that to defeat knockers he has to thow away everything, including his humanity and dedicate himself fully on defeating this one species.
I just feel no happy ending to this, the story should have ended with him losing his consciousness as the tree. Now it is just becoming a true story of immortality, endless battle of two immortal species. I just dont know anymore, how can this end, on an endless cliffhanger? If we follow any logic that has been laid so far, he has no hope for a future.
and secondly, what the heck was man in blacks idea of creating him like that. I have been waiting for so long for some kind of explanation for why man in black hood even started it all. It is an extremely fucked up idea of him to just live out his life normally now only to leave fushi with no answers and knockers on the loose when they are so overpowered. (He knew more or less what to do before, but now its just woosh, idk man, i guess its time to die) Even if knockers have learned from their past failures, they still lack compassion unlike fushi. What the hell even are knockers and the man in black hood, now a kid. Even if it did not matter, its just god damn frustrating the longer this goes, whats the point of knockers in this story, just an overpowered way to say that everything in life doesnt go according to plan and that there are evil things out there where you dont see them? Sure not everything has to make sense like how Bon can see spirits. But still -
Just What The Heck ? ? ?
or maybe answers are coming soon, just my god, i feel like this is gonna be even worse train of suffering than before. The stakes are higher than ever. (╯°Д °)╯╧╧ ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ (╬￣皿￣)凸
aaaa i didn’t receive the notification for this reply and thought everyone just collectively ignored me so i’m really glad to see someone sharing my exact same thoughts! i literally was thinking about it today, since last night i went through some old chapters i hadn’t seen in years, and realized just how long knockers have been around for. and of course i became even more frustrated. i asked myself, is there some deep hidden metaphorical meaning behind them? cause i really don’t get it? besides the fact that their existence still don’t make sense to me, now we’re just reading the same thing over and over again (breaks my heart to say it, i’m SO emotionally attached to this manga), but really, keeping on seeing him do that pained expression over and over again cause he’s just too good to even kill this apathetic monsters pains me too. i agree that it should’ve ended with him becoming a tree, cause as i’ve said in a recent comment i don’t get what this arc is adding to the previous ones (besides the fact that the modern era kind of spoiled the mood for me but that’s another thing). what’s mizuha gonna give fushi that others before her, especially kahak (whom i LOVED in comparison), haven’t tried already? i would just really want him to turn his back to everyone and think about himself for once, can they STOP trying to force him into stuff he shouldn’t be related too? (i srsly can’t stand the endless “what is love” discourses. he doesn’t care. let him be.) lastly, i don’t think the guy in black ever had any reason for him to create fushi, but i do think that given his choice to become mortal the same thing could happen to our boy as well. thought i’d be happy to say it cause he NEEDS this burden off him but uh brb crying
waaa seeing all these people saying they’re here cause they’ve watched ep 1 ;-; i still can’t believe this story got animated, please read it asap!
back to the latest chapters, i’m screaming internally cause i don’t really know how to feel about all this, i know “human” mizuha doesn’t equal hayase but i really can’t stand the both of them. i also feel weird about tonari’s growing feelings for fushi since ... she’s also a character we’ve been known for so long? i get the whole thing about fushi needing to understand all emotions but i don’t really think i’d be that happy if they make him end up with someone ... gosh what should i do i feel guilty in some way but i really REALLY don’t wanna see that
it’s just been announced that the next chapter will also be the last and i’m literally hard broken. i got so attached to this manga over the past years, sharing thoughts, theories and nostalgia with my friends and such, to the point where haruitsuki became my biggest comfort character, ashiya following right after. i was sure this story would’ve given us a lot more, i wish we knew about itsuki’s past and many other things i wondered about so it’s not joke to say i literally shed tears at the news. it’s not even my favorite story yet i’ve never felt so bad for the end of a manga, i don’t even know how much i’m gonna miss then
I’m crying....last?????
that’s what they said, i really can’t wrap my head around it
correction, it’s ending in two chapters
oh no it’s ended
