| Not loving the comic walker layout on the Young Ace UP site, but I liked that we're starting to get into Tanaka's backstory |
| no wayyyy the hamster i did not expect this 😧 |
| Now I understand why Tanaka called the hamster a friend. |
 "Are you intoxicated, or just insane?" |
| 42.3: DIABOLICAL MICROCHAPTER let's set everything up to go crazy but not actually begin anything okay. the watchhh 😭 |
| Part 1: Tanaka's past! We see him learning braille. I like that detail. Kurebayashi was actually against sending Tanaka to the company. So, why was she willing to trust them with "Hikaru"!! Oh, Tanaka met a little kid. I am guessing she's the hamster, since the cage is there too. First job Tanaka is kinda hot! lol Part 2: Oh damn, Tanaka actually became friends with the kid, and the impurity that was acting as a mother-figure just killed her. Is this his first time sacrificing parts of himself to gain results? I can see why he gets so messed up later on. Part 3: Tanaka sacrificed his hair, and ended up with light patches. So, that's why he bleached it. Makes sense. He doesn't seem like the type to bleach his hair. My respect for Tanaka has increased because he won't treat his company members as sacrifices. But, why are those company people so non-human? Like, one dude got his arm chopped off, yet he was still smiling! creepy!! So, it is true. Being mixed will get you forgotten by people. I wonder if this is a metaphor about queer erasure. LGBT people have always existed, yet history almost doesn't remember them at all. Also, when people come out in conservative areas, people act like they don't exist, and won't even say their names. |
