    Kyoufu: Fear - Vol. 3 Ch. 2 - Santa Claus is Coming

    Actually surprisingly rare for a story in this series to have such a dark end. Did not expect that.

    The Violence Action - Vol. 1 Ch. 1

    I think the part that sticks out to me the most is just the outro. Usually torture is shown to be so dark and cruel, it's where a lot of manga cross the line into to edgy. But instead the scene felt strangely domestic, the atmosphere weirdly casual even when you see a finger flicked onto the...

    Junji Ito: A Study From the Abyss of Horror - The Return of the Hanging Balloons

    @mase_aga, the original can be found at https://mangadex.org/chapter/259039. My thoughts: even if it's short, it does add to the horror of the original story a bit. Still no explanation, and the little they were able to learn just adds even more questions. Though I wonder why Ito decided to...

    Mahou Shoujo Site - Vol. 16 Ch. 139 - LAST ENTER - Asagiri Aya

    Welp, definitely a messy ending. It's happy, but it doesn't explain much about HOW it got that way. Like, are Aya's adopted parents good now? Is this now an alternate universe where the dad wasn't crazy and super-strict and abusive? And what about the other girls? Do they remember anything? And...

    Mahou Shoujo Site - Vol. 16 Ch. 138 - ENTER.83 - Happiness

    Seriously, compared to how the final battle was going, this ending seems really mellow and much more reasonable. It feels way more in line with the earlier chapters, or at least it's a more "generic" type of crazy ending as opposed to over-the-top Armegeddon insanity. I'm just glad it looks like...

    Mahou Shoujo Site - Vol. 16 Ch. 137 - ENTER.82 - goodbye

    Actually recruiting Ayas from other timelines doesn't feel like as much of a cop-out as I expected. This development feels more logical and rational than the rest of this screwed-up climax, I was expecting her to single-handedly become God and/or give up her humanity or physical form/existence...

    Mahou Shoujo Site - Vol. 16 Ch. 134 - ENTER.79 - The World Where My Loved Ones Live

    No. Do NOT make Aya sacrifice herself in some BS way to end it. Her existence has literally been nothing but suffering, do NOT make her just die to keep everyone else happy. Sigh. This series actually had such great potential at the start, but it became just as convoluted in the end. The...

    Detective Conan - Vol. 98 Ch. 1037 - The Stream of Time...

    I'm just laughing because at the end of the flashback Akai was thinking "She's really grown since then," and Sera hadn't even been born yet. Also on the whole Mary being possibly tied to the BO: one thing worth noting is I don't think ANYONE knows she got affected aside from Sera and (now)...

    DINER - Vol. 3 Ch. 28 - Sandra's Berry & Geisha MURCIÉLAGO 2

    She's starting to get more savvy about surviving in this world. Frozen meat as armor is definitely unconventional, but pretty creative use of resources.

    Mahou Shoujo Site - Vol. 16 Ch. 133 - ENTER.78 - Checkmate

    @EvelynIsGone Yep, just checked my inbox and it was you. You raised the point of Kiyoharu having a stick despite being biologically male. I also thought about it being given to a transgender girl, but then I realized we're not sure if the stick's effects are permanent...? It might be just until...

    Mahou Shoujo Site - Vol. 16 Ch. 133 - ENTER.78 - Checkmate

    A while back I mentioned Kayo would probably use the sex-altering stick in the final showdown, but someone replied it probably wouldn't affect the King negatively. But now that it actually IS, it's just one of the biggest plot holes to date. They made a stick that is literally their own greatest...

    Hotarubi no Tomoru Koro ni - Vol. 4 Ch. 21 - Future

    The ending actually doesn't feel too rushed up until this chapter. I feel like just even one more chapter, and the pacing would have been fine. One of the better examples of an "axed" ending I've seen.

    Mahou Shoujo Site - Vol. 15 Ch. 126 - ENTER.71 - Preparing for Battle

    I swear, Kosame's pose with the hat feels like a reference to the manga Domo. Also @EvelynIsGone it's been established that men using sticks harms the King. So Kayo probably plans to use it to change her own sex to hurt the King as a back-up plan.

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 3 Ch. 6 - Flesh-Colored Horror

    @Snakeykid1 It was the sabotaged batches of the beauty formula. Also I'm pretty sure this isn't allowed to be posted? The first three volumes were all licensed and published in the US years ago. This looks like scans of the official translation, just (kind of) cleaned up and with the text...

    Pygmalion

    Overall, this was actually a pretty fun read. Despite the concept, it didn't purely rely on gore and go for shock value too much like a lot of these sorts of manga do. It had some moments of course, but it actually had a decent amount of thought put into the story, and it wasn't just endless...

    Pygmalion - Vol. 3 Ch. 19 - Someday...

    The ending was slightly rushed, but it's actually pretty good compared to some of the endings I've seen. The author managed to tie up all the loose ends pretty neatly, so it feels pretty complete.

    Kyoufu: Fear - Vol. 2 Ch. 5 - Yacht of Solitude

    This one felt a little disappointing compared to the rest. Probably because I expected one of a couple endings when Takako warned Kumi not to go: 1) Takako actually survived but went crazy. She just acted like a ghost because again, crazy. Thought it might be that for sure when we saw her ghost...

    Mahou Shoujo Site - Vol. 15 Ch. 122 - ENTER.67 - Atonement

    @RiceKirby I think this was just because it's April Fool's Day. At least they only did it for one page instead of a full joke chapter. Though that's seriously going to confuse future readers if they keep that in there...

    Travelogue of the Succubus - Vol. 1 Ch. 4 - The Insects of Bishakeura

    Glad I did not read this before bed. I missed a LOT of dialogue though because I had to skip past the bugs. Bugs are my biggest weakness when reading horror. On that note: if there is any readers who isn't too disturbed by the bugs, could you possibly post a transcript of the pages that have...

    RYOKO - Vol. 3 Ch. 24 - EARLY SUMMER 1

    Okay I did not realize that guy was actually a human. This is an interesting development.
