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

She's not even related to the village but she has to spend eternity praying that demons don't torture their ancestors?
 
Good thing they ended this short, author didn't know what he was getting into i believe. This had huge potential to be something greater. Ending wasn't half bad, thought it was stupid for her to stay behind praying for others when the book said that the dead only got salvation when their own children prayed for them.

Missing word on page 13: "If MISSING WORD had managed to believe in you until the very end."
 
Maybe I just forgot if it was revealed before, but I still wonder who was the father of Terumi's baby.
 
I didn’t realize there was only two more chapters. Thanks for finishing it off for us.
 
Wow, that ended with a bang! As others have said, maybe a bit too quick. Were their editors pushing the creators to do so? I wonder...

Still, I enjoyed it.

@Lyendith Thank you for giving this to us! This was a tasty manga.
 
Poor Ms. Takano/Miyoko. I'd previously thought she had just been trapped, out of normal "spacetime", in that hell.
 
It's not like it wasn't foreshadowed. There were several hints that Yue was happier in Hell than in the real world and there was a mention of "ascets" earlier, which is probably what she became.

I do agree that the ending feels a bit rushed, though.

Maybe I just forgot if it was revealed before, but I still wonder who was the father of Terumi's baby.

No mention of the father, no.

@Nutjob Thanks, it's fixed!
 
Is it just me, or would he somehow have died if he chose to escape at that moment?

@Teasday
Damn right. She lost.
 
Dunno. I feel pretty satisfied with the ending. I'm not Buddhist, but something about this really hit home for me.
 
I am glad they are back.. I am not Buddhist as well.. Even in my belief is also told about how important a prayer is.. Still um.. Reading this can't help me to not think how death can be so scary!
 
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.
