Present day is the 90s...and the time he met Gene was during the 70s....this takes place in New York...depending on what Gene had been doing there’s a high chance he might have been one of the victims of the epidemic
I believe Gene may have simply went home backntonSmish country!!! Gene is also mentioned in another story of this author. But I like how to connected things.
Wich one?
Rumspringa no joukei hes the mc’s cousin or sumn and he left Amish country lol
I thought he never went back and that’s why Danny was so upset. Maybe Gene died from the hiv outbreak (heard it was pretty big during those years) and considering how dear the uncle is to the family, perhaps he was the one who suggested the nephew‘s name, after his dearly beloved Gene. God, I hope not. I want a happy ending. ;-;
Man...i hope its not that, ppls storys about AIDS always hurts my heart.
Im so confused why are there little boxes with their names and (20) in the first couple pages for intro when 1) they shouldn’t be 20 at their high school graduation and 2) the jp raw didn’t have it at all??
Maybe the kr raws are different? 20 might be korean age (+1 year) so they're 19
Eh wait wait. Japanese higschool student graduate at 18 years old in march....
Maybe just maybe
Well I am lost
They just want to make the sex is legal in this translation
I've red on different forum it's +2 years because
1) they're adding a year at each calendar new year and
2) it's starting at birth > so they're "already" 1 year old at birth...
So that could add up to 20 yo...
But that was on Korean age, I don't know about Japan... ╮(⊙…⊙)╭
Oh, I think I just got it. Could be wrong, but in Korea, everyone is considered a year older on New Year (not on their birthday).
Plus they are already considered 1 year old at birth as the comment above me said.
So in Japan they could be 18 years old (+1 since they are 1 at birth, +1 again since the new year has passed, adding up to 20 yo in korean age)
Ok I got it. But wearing a high school uniform at 20 years old leave me the "weird" impression
Be prepared to get emotionally destroyed by this series. It’ll take your feelings and ground them into dust and then rinse and repeat all the way until the end
U read the novel??
Well, is it good?
İt is very good at ... might be my own over the top hype mybe but still (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
Yeah. I’m not going to get into the shipping stuff but there’s no canon romance/endgame. There’s plenty of found family dynamics though. It’s a story that about trying to understand others and wanting to be understood, about saving others and being saved yourself. Kim Dokja is definitely one of the most compelling and (sometimes way too) relatable main characters I’ve ever come across. At first it might seem like your typical apocalypse power fantasy and Kim Dokja does literally become a god but it’s not, /precisely/ because it’s Kim Dokja.
He isnt that overpowered actually .There are stronger characters in case of skills and strength but kim dokja’s strength lies more like in his shrewdness how he manages to come out alive in every single unpredicted situation ... i love him (≧∀≦)
wow can’t wait to see it all crash and burn and by that I mean I can’t wait to have my heart broken
very happy I finally get to see some plant based body horror that first panel of mei out of the bath with the flowers all over him? Amazing.
torn b/n honey you look GOOD and girl, your RIBS when they revealed her new look, like holy shit, how tight is that corset
First I was taken aback by the amount of frills, then the size of her waist. Can she even breathe in that thing?
when tatsumi said “fall in love with me” (「俺のことを好きになってほしい」) and kazushi replies with “I love you” I was expecting it to be 「好きです」
BUT NO. THIS MAN SAID 「愛してるよ」HE REALLY FUCKING USED “AI”
So to put it simple he said "Aishiteru" instead of " Tsuki desu " ? (●￣(ｴ)￣●)
Uhhh rather than saying instead of using one over the other....they’re not really interchangeable, like “suki” is used in pretty much all situations because it’s...like a catch-all? type of phrase, though depending on the context it generally is pretty laden with romantic connotations
But using “ai,” /especially/ when when the context is romantic. Shit, that’s /loaded/ with meaning. It’s not just “oh yeah, I like you too,” or even “I love you
Shit uh that posted too early ANYWAYS
-I love you!!!!!” Using “ai” w/n a romantic context is basically like “you’re the only one for me, you’re the love of my life, my soulmate, my one greatest love...” etc. it’s hella serious!!!!!!!! so like. What Kazushi is saying by going with 「愛してるよ」is a LOT. And the “yo” at the end of that is also pretty important! Using “yo” at the end of a sentence adds nuance, implying that whatever the sentence is about is new information for whomever it’s intended! That’s not always the case, since it’s often used just to add emphasis, but I think chapter 3 already made it abundantly clear how Kazushi feels about Tatsumi, even if Tatsumi himself is fucking clueless. In this case, I’d say the “yo” is both for emphasis and as a “-you know,” kind of thing.
This ones the winner for this year’s “This Manga Is Good!” rankings in the female-oriented genres category so I’m really looking forward to seeing how it’ll go! first chapter is looking pretty great already, especially the end. Nina is a badass lol
finally we’re on the cusp of one of my favorite chapters of this whole dang series being translated and y’all will be able to get a glimpse of the heavily complicated and sometimes (often) stressful but ultimately tender and enduring, loving relationship between my favorite couple
first of course will be minhoon being a badass, a clash of wills, and then some lovey-dovey time b/n minhoon and hyungwoo but then!!
Then, an example of how grandiose gestures and lofty declarations make not the best ways to present a long-established relationship, especially one that’s lasted over half a millennia.
Rias has some Moves and it’s great but also Wild as hell boy bc she’s FIVE. Like both of them (and most of us readers) have forgotten that, I know, and they’re both older than they seem but like...Honey. F I V E. Not to mention if her family had seen even half of that interaction status be damned they’d have attempted to rip him apart...I kinda doubt they’d have succeeded since he looks strong but...
also rip to the Hal stans, I love him very much as well but let’s face it she thinks of him as a brother (in law ლ(´ڡ`ლ))
