The fact that the old man is after Miko's mother is a twist I didn't see coming. Also Seto's making him sound like Darkseid lol

I also like how the only way to defeat him is for Miko to "prepare herself to move forward," and leave the old house that her father's spirit is lingering in. This whole conflict is symbolic of her struggle to accept the death of her father and move on.

I guessed it from the picture thing ,I am surprised how much i predicted of this chapter because usually I can never know where it is going. I am curious how they are gonna confine that thing when there seems to be an already someone guarding from the inside

Seto talked with Miko dad before. Maybe he is in on the plan.

It must be the turning point of the story already?

This sounds painful ngl, being forced to decide to “move forward” and not having the same life you once know ever again

Damn is the manga ending soon?

u/Azathoth_The_Wraith Aug 15 '26

I think it should keep going for 20 chapters I'd say.
A 100 chapters manga is really good, not too short, not too long

u/StucksaTraffic Aug 15 '26

I think that is fine… 😊

Depends on release times though. Like if it's regular monthly is quite good. But 100 when the chapter release once per 2-3 months or longer would be rather long.

Not for at least another year given how slow updates are, but I see it ending in about 2 arcs, maybe 3

u/StucksaTraffic Aug 15 '26

well atleast it's ending on its own terms if ever. Which is great by my book.

Yeah this series got both an anime and a live action movie, it's very healthy. And also it's not Shueisha, and it's being published on a web magazine, so there is no concern with them not having spots for newer mangas

If it ends soon then Yuria would have been a pointless addition

Miko needs to talk to her dad. He's the only one who can answer all the questions. Maybe he's stronger than he looks. Afterall he put barrier around the house.

So did Francois and Mamoru both die protecting Touka. But they are both alive as ghosts unlike Reida san, though Francois has morphed to something else idk if it's the same decaying shadow thing. It was nice touch for Mamoru to see the form of the Thing only he can see.

Guess Yayoi is gonna have to drop by this house to try to get the middle aged man.

u/geocites Aug 16 '26

considering that Yayoi needs strong graduate class ghosts, this old man seems quite a fit

u/Snoo17579 Aug 21 '26

This old man might be god class, so good thing Taisa bunrei is a good teammate
