EN For many readers, the drama here may come across as a bit “dark”, but for me it works almost like therapy. *laughs*

Seeing certain experiences and events from a third-person perspective allows us to learn a great deal. Even now, after so many years of reading, I am still surprised by how much literature can teach us, even when the works are entirely fictional.

I highly recommend it, especially to anyone who enjoys "Goodnight Punpun".

PT Para muitos leitores, o drama aqui pode parecer um pouco “dark”, mas para mim funciona quase como terapia. *risos*

Observar certas experiências e acontecimentos na terceira pessoa permite-nos aprender imenso. Ainda hoje, após tantos anos a ler, continua a surpreender-me a forma como a leitura nos consegue ensinar tanto, mesmo quando se trata de obras totalmente ficcionadas.

Recomendo vivamente, sobretudo a quem aprecia “Boa Noite, Punpun”.

El tomo que me hizo amar Boy's Abyss, de los mejores que he leído éste mes.

[Heather’s Reading Bubble · Rating 2 out of 5]

This volume had some interesting things in it but I’m hate reading this series at this point. If it ends with every character dead I’d be so happy because they’re all so awful. Honestly they keep blaming the town for them being so shitty and that’s just so ridiculous. A town can’t make you be an awful person, just saying.

No one is ever not eavesdropping. The art style is so nice when they go into town. More sunny places away from their domiciles please. How was Chako mentioning getting cut from student council not seen as a power play? So Chako has to be hospitalized for weight loss but not her underage lover for attempted suicide. How is Rei not seeing the obvious tear-apart plot?

Gen went from being my fav character to a shell of himself. Really doesn’t seem well-planned from the author at all… And now everyone’s just brushing off an almost rape? I always say I’m confused, but this is just out of everyone’s character… and Rei still doesn’t have a personality. He’s a piece of paper skittering on the wind, as 2D and do-nothing.

At least we get to see Tokyo and Nagi’s maybe sliver of a backstory. The last ch. is suspenseful and I always knew the Gen/mom thing so it’s no surprise.

Plot has slowed way down, but has evened out. A lot of this volume is backstory, and basically a long explanation of how we got from the events in the past to the chain of events in the "future". Also, the mother and the teacher are both plotting something, but I don't know what. Very ominous though.

The fact that Esemori basically planned Nagi and Reiji meeting is wild though. Like, that required a LOT of coincidences to happen how he planned it. Also, I really don't like the mother manipulating the teacher into doing what she wants, in such a bizarre way. The teacher is a manipulator herself, but in comparison to Yuko, she's an amateur. The mother (Yuko) gets more and more ominous the more we learn about her.

j’ai été mauvaise langue, en réalité j’aime beaucoup quand l’histoire retourne vers le passé et c’est ce qui se passe depuis les derniers tomes, on comprend tout, chaque chose prend son sens, les principes principaux allant jusqu’à être insistants du manga commencent à enfin être plus qu’une volonté partagée par tout le monde

[Dai de labibliotecadedai · Rating 4 out of 5]

Este tomo me gustó muchísimo porque supimos más de Esemori y de porque estaba con Nagi.
También de Yuko y porque es TAN tóxica.
El desenlace de Uryu me pareció maravilloso y bueno, como muestran que todos estan vinculados.

Ce 11e tome a un goût de finalité en ce sens qu’il nous renvoie au début de la descente dans les abysses de Reiji et ses proches.
Essemori a pu nous raconter son histoire et sa vérité, la boucle est bouclée ; et s’il y a un fort sentiment d’inévitable – comme si l’histoire était vouée à se répéter, et que personne ne peut tout à fait échapper à la ville – on voit quand même tous les pions se mettre en place pour la suite.

J’ai très hâte de voir ce que va faire Reiji (et ses deux amis), ainsi que de savoir ce que prévoient les adultes restés dans la ville.

[Aaron Meyer · Rating 5 out of 5]

The truth unfolds this volume and Reiji is getting an earful of it. Esemori gives him his life story and all the connections in an unfiltered expose only as a dramatic author, such as himself, can give. This hits hard and although I can figure the true reasons for Esemori doing what he does I just can't wait until he drops the reason himself. God I hope that it comes in the next volume lol! Plus all the stuff still going on back home this story is still anybody's guess.
