So Jesse, as we saw in flashback chapter, banished Law from his household, his mom agreed to it. Then Jesse stopped the Moritat Project all together, announced the media about it, because Law, the one behind the idea of Moritat has gone.
But without Jesse knowing Law still did the Project all by himself, and recruited the blonde hair maid to help him in his research. And when Law thought he was ready, he went to meet Jesse at Jesse's school, invited Jesse for a cup of tea (as we saw on the last chapter), and sedated Jesse so he fell asleep. Then took Jesse to his mansion, and put Jesse and himself on Moritat.
Then began chapter 1. And as we read further, we found out Law experimented on Jesse (in Moritat) countless time, until Law himself said he felt like he had been on Moritat with Jesse for 20 years (even though in reality, the experiment only went for one day, holy crap - this explained by the blonde hair maid telling Jesse he came to Law's mansion yesterday after he drank a cup of tea). We saw Law burned his palm with cigarettes before, that's actually how Law differ reality and Moritat. If Law didnt feel pain, then he's in Moritat.
After countless time experimenting on Jesse, Jesse finally relied on Law, asking Law to jump from the balcony together. That's actually what Law wanted, the reason behind him starting Moritat, but surprisingly, after he got what we want in Moritat, Law stop the Moritat. Then we came to Jesse waking up from Moritat, talked a bit with Law (forgot what they talked about) and in the end Law let Jesse go.
After a while, Jesse hasnt met Law since the day he woke up from Moritat. Came back to his university, and one day he met the blonde girl again. Jesse found out Law still coming back to Moritat, and that actually angered Jesse. Jesse came back to Law's mansion with the realization that Law's actually scared of Jesse seeing Law on the same ground.
Probably, Law suffered from low self-esteem, in the flashback Law said his world is like a sand castle, he's constantly getting afraid of Jesse abandoning him. Law didn't realize Jesse actually like Law from long ago, since Jesse said Law is beautiful. Jesse probably knew about Law's problem, and thought he didnt want Law to suffer from it forever by being on Jesse's side. Hence the banishing Law from Brown household.
In the end, Law realized he's actually scared of his own wish. And Law didn't think his wish would ever come true in reality, that's why he's still continuing Moritat, so at least he can have Jesse even in virtual reality. But Jesse proved Law wrong, that Jesse actually love Law in reality. Even though they both suffer from their relationship ever since childhood, well they have hurt each other, but reality is a lot better.
Thank you for that, I was trying so hard to understand it!
I hope Rei would consider changing his plan for revenge (a bit. I mean he could take down the step dad but leave Hyodo alone dont kill him PLEASE) when he learnt that Yukio and Jun are his brother.
The plot is unique, it's pretty interesting to me as a non-japanese to get to know kabuki drama (did I say it right here?) as a part of japanese traditional culture!
It's also interesting that men can take roles as female characters. It seems to me that "men wearing women's clothes" isn't counted as something weird or taboo in japan. I always think japanese people have a different point of view in many things in life. This manga can help people to be a bit more open-minded :) I'm so glad I read this manga!
And btw the couple here are indeed actors, huh? They're so goodlooking!
Actually, in the past it was always men who played female roles. Japanese culture is more traditional and thus you still have performances like that. In Europe they would probably start shouting "gender inequality!" and that would be the end of it. ;)
Ooohh so that's what happened... I see it now.. about "gender inequality", it makes sense.. people in different part of the world take things differently, I guess? Well thanks for sharing the info :D
You're welcome. :) And I really get your point about becoming more open-minded after reading manga, it's so true!
It's marked as incomplete so I wonder what we'll be going to get next? Kanata's story? Tooru's? Or the "mission" thing?
Well if someone got a clue that is.
There's a reason why the translators dont want their scanlations to be uploaded on mangasites. As far as I know, there have been several stories about people getting arrested because they personally scanned manga and upload it on the internet. Some scanlation teams have decided to stopped too, because of the issue. So please understand TC's translators and raw providers are trying their best for us readers by still providing us free scanlations while trying to protect themselves too :)
If you want to keep reading TC, please at least try to do some searching? It's not like it's that hard to find the translator's personal website/blog. That's what I did.
Well is it okay to upload a page of it here so we can go the website ? I can't open 10 websites daily to check what manga is updated, but once I know it's updated I go to the site fine...
I'm sorry I don't know if it's okay or not. I'm also facing the same problem as you and haven't find any solutions. We can actually do the checking one by one, but many people feel too lazy to do that or think it's wasting time I guess, even though they read them for free. Please just bear it for now.
If they got a FB page, then no problem at all once they update their status we'll go there in our free time to check it out. I don't think there is something worth getting to jail for lol
That's too much of a risk. The company that have licensed Ten Count have a strict policy about their products. If the company found out about this, both the tranlator and scanner will get into big trouble
Although I respect the scantaltors wishes, this is not an effective way to protect themselves. I don't want to anger anyone, but it would make more sense to protect their anonymity by other methods. Once you post something on the Internet, it is out there.
Actually I've just seen on their site that Ten Count has been dropped...
Ten count got licenced, so there will be official english subs for this manga. But the problem is, the official english sub(or english ver manga) will be sold later(more like tba) so all we can do is waiting.
There are die hard fans who awaits this monthly- I'm not one of them, I'm planning to buy other ones but I still read them here idk why lol- those fans would buy it if it's out but till then they will settle for this just for the speed nothing more.
I don't like how Kagami treated Shinoa :( why does she have to have sexual desire for her demon to be awakened? Even worse, the desire has to be so strong she loses her mind? Really Kagami? Having sexual desire is acceptable but to be sex-crazed teenager is too much!! Please dont tell me Kagami is going to make Shinoa a hoe! PLEASE
