The art is extremely ambitious and experimental which I can appreciate!! But man I cannot be the only one who is mostly lost w/ the plot am I just stupid ?? I tried re starting the story a few times and just got more confused I’m up to about chapter 31 should I continue :’)
I’ve also been wondering who tf that guy in the cover is
trust me this is genuinely such a good story. it does kind of get really hard to follow, but it's so worth it! the 2nd season mostly follows a different character (kimoto) who is the guy in the cover! kimoto is the guy who deals with all of the machines and gives jin the little robot creature in the first few episodes.
basically, season 1 followed Jin who used to be part of this program that trained 6 highly skilled children, but there was an accident (more of this gets explained in the latest chapters) and Jin ends up separated from the other 5. he gets taken in by this little gang and they're basically his found family, but eventually they get into drug trafficking to make ends meet which is their downfall because these drugs are powerful hallucinogens. once people take enough of these drugs, they lose themselves to these demon creatures (forgive me for not using the right terminology it's been a hot minute since i've fully read through season 1) which is why the drug is illegal.
Jin is busted and captured during a transport mission, i believe. And the people he's caught by just so happen to be the other 5 kids who were in the same program he was in. There's a lot of resentment towards Jin that we don't really know why it exists in season 1 because we're following the perspective of Jin who has amnesia. So, his first part of the story is simply there to give a lot of context about the world and to set up what happens later on. But genuinely it gets heavy because we still connect with the people that Jin grew close to in his gang (especially Charon)
In season 2, where Kimoto is the main character, we get a lot more insight into the backstory and things start making a lot more sense because Kimoto remembers everything. However, more lore things are added to the present timeline, so it can get hard to follow, but the past timeline starts lining up.
I think it's definitely worth it to keep reading though!
So yuu needs to kill his former friends to save humanity and bring everyone back
Uhhhhh huh? Also yoichi is totally fine now after like 2 chapters wtf was that big ass speech about a couple of chapters ago
Can mika and yuu just commit shinju and call it a day? Idc anymore if it’s considered selfcest, I’m kind of tired of this shinoa foreshadowing going nowhere and this story
Lowkey the ending of this story is giving burnt out gifted kid syndrome, wetsand was told it was gonna change the world and be a GOATED BL and ended up being a failure and disappointment
Wet sand I understand u now, me and wet sand are homies
This ending would’ve been so goated if those nonexistent pre time skip chapters actually existed and the foreshadowing wasn’t thrown away man…
Idk why Chris got a cameo though wtf
Jo you helped murder someone and still have 4 bullets left, atleast you didn’t throw away ur amazing life
Tj and Ian yall were made for eachother but what was that deal u made tj, tj what happened in prison, i will see both of u in hell lol
I’m cracking a cold one for this disappointing ass ending
Garenteed to cry
Look I love tj and Ian’s complex dynamic that’s why I was hooked to begin with and that’s why I’m delulu and team tj HOWEVER I’m very disappointed if this is how it ends :/ are there going to be side stories ?? because a 2 year time skip and off screen development and all those loose plot threads they were building up literally went to waste this is half baked, this 3rd season has Gege ah writing and I have complicated feelings about this now idk if I like this story anymore
I feel bad for jo now he was kind of used he was only pissing me off because he was willing to throw his life away woxokqixjajs also what tf happened to his 4 bullets ??
I need a drink
