    Boy's Abyss - Vol. 5 Ch. 46 - Secret Meeting

    @Cazeyuf Nobody fucked in this chapter. Mom was making power plays as a punishment. Gen is hiding in the closet (symbolic? I dunno) fully clothed, suggesting he ran away from her there. @Trung-t-rung Has nothing to do with crushes. Read the dialogue and it suggests Gen's issues run far deeper...

    Boy's Abyss - Vol. 5 Ch. 45 - The Holy Mother From That City

    Woudn't surprise me in the least if they don't fuck and Mom is just trying to spite him for telling Reiji. She probably knows or has a feeling that he's gay.

    Boy's Abyss - Vol. 5 Ch. 43 - Criminal

    @_thestranger_"The majority of the these people are suffering from mental illnesses/problems (depression, anxiety, delusional suicidal, etc). " Not him, and I agree with you to an extent. I'm sure you're aware of this but I'll say it anyway. People with mal-adaptive behaviors shouldn't mix...

    Boy's Abyss - Vol. 5 Ch. 43 - Criminal

    @hanpt2 My man, I would be surprised if anyone who has read this far is still on the ride for morals. People want to be entertained and as it turns out, a good/fun character is preferable to a good/boring person. @Miv If I was going by appearances, then Nagi and Mom would be best girl. Sensei...

    Boy's Abyss - Vol. 5 Ch. 43 - Criminal

    Sensei's not my favorite (that's Nagi) but she's definitely the best girl. Every page of her is gold and she is constantly moving herself and the plot forward. She's so morally corrupt but you can tell it's a result of unfair expectations and isolation that's built up over an unfulfilled...

    Boy's Abyss - Vol. 5 Ch. 41 - Drowned Body

    @daniel345 That's exactly the feeling I get, great description. But I wonder if it's that simple. This manga loves to flip around impressions. Reiji's mom looked angelic but Esemori looked terrified at the memory of her. She's drenched in water during that scene and water is heavily synonymous...

    Boy's Abyss - Vol. 4 Ch. 31 - Years and Years

    @weyr cuz the town is perceived through the eyes of the characters. And all the characters - even the ones who think they can't leave - hate it. Never underestimate self-inserting and emotional investment's capacity for skewing objectivity. I guarantee you that people would despise an antagonist...

    Boy's Abyss - Vol. 4 Ch. 31 - Years and Years

    @grimlight @NGOtaku It's gaslighting and sophism. An argument that makes sense at least on the surface, but is just a pretext for ulterior motives. I still can't fully say why Gen wants Reiji in particular so badly, but in that desperate play, he's got Reiji by the balls now. See, up until this...

    Boy's Abyss - Vol. 4 Ch. 30 - Contract

    @auodere I don't think that's the issue here. Chako hate is a stretch but she is making mistakes that someone in her position (Reiji's best friend) should not be making. Thinking at all about Nagi is one and detracting from the real problem. Nagi is without a doubt the catalyst to Reiji's...

    Boy's Abyss - Vol. 4 Ch. 28 - An Outsider’s Soliloquy

    @ez3 I think that's mostly true, but Reiji isn't innocent either. He's let himself be dragged around by these people. It's understandable given his background but he's no less culpable for his poor decision making. If there's a "good person" in this story (and I don't believe there is) it's...

    Boy's Abyss - Vol. 4 Ch. 28 - An Outsider’s Soliloquy

    Reiji: I tried to commit suicide with 10/10 girl but someone got in the way Chako: I thought you were going to Tokyo with me! Is dying with her more important than going with me? I was on board #justiceforchako until reading this. Was it an error or poor choice of words by the author? Because...
