@Koshkom Sure, it's possible in Chainsaw Man 2, Denji will fall for the new Blood Devilman that Power reincarnates as. I doubt it, because their fraternal bond struck me as pretty important for the author in how he crafted their story, but maybe. Power herself (rip)? It really was never going to...

@Koshkom incest is not just a taboo but a thing most people just unconsciously avoid without even thinking about it, the familial relationship label on the other person excluding them from any possibility of being seen in that light. This is why you see the line "I see them as a sister/brother"...

Thank you for the much improved way of describing Reiko :)

I loved this so much. Just A+ storycrafting, and a clearly excellent translation!

As far as I'm concerned Denji dating Power would be basically incest and I'd imagine he'd see it the same way. That's his little sister, his family, not an object of lust you heathens.

This manga started feeling like it was secretly set in the same universe as Tokyo Babylon/X and ended being flavorless white bread "oh they're just good friends" shojo. What on earth happened?

This series ends with soooo many Chekhov's guns going unfired by the end of it. Like the author got really gunshy, but couldn't take back littering their plot with all these guns. Hopefully they make a sequel series where they let at least some of them go off. Especially the gay and CLAMPy ones...

After reading the whole thing on another site, I loved this a lot. My one big caveat is that the epilogue feels wrong for the story, like something imposed over what was intended. Just skip the last chapter imo. Up to that point though, this is a great story about dysphoria, disassociation, and...

I loved this. Got the feeling from other comments that people had very unrealistic expectations for a bunch of 13 year old queer kids who aren't even at thinking about first kisses yet, lol. For what is here, for what distance they cover, this is beautiful and very satisfying. I love the open...

A lot of people here seem to be interpreting Yo's internalized transphobia for a lack of consent, huh. Also expecting horny 15yos to act with perfect respect for themselves and the boundaries of others, which is doubly strange.

I was so happy to see this author's still getting work (so many of the good queer manga I've read is by people who drop off the face of the earth or switch to writing safe boring het shit), and this so far does not disappoint. Love it. :)

Why do the tl notes keep referring to Reiko as "she" when he's made it extremely clear that he's a man? He's using the strongest language possible to communicate this since this is a flashback to before we had better language. You can't get much more unambiguous than "On the inside I'm a man"...

They're called "Boomer Scans" because they use a scanner that is sixty+ years old, judging by the quality of these pages. This quality of scan was acceptable back in the bad old days when you were likely to just find a low resolution photograph of a book held open as anything decent, but times...

I have no idea why this is tagged smut, let alone ecchi, because it is a pure wholesome comedy about stinky genitals. The clown who tagged this needs to go back to clown school imho!

Goddamn, having your leg bent so far that your foot touches your shoulder seems like it'd be a bit more demanding of your attention then your pride about underwear.
