guy whose obsessed with nier voice: wow this is really reminiscent of nier

what a strange read. on one hand, it feels like so little has happened but there is so much beneath the surface, so much interiority, that i've loved every word of it. we've arrived at the clinic, met a few recurring faces, and started the treatment. technically, that's all. the writing is very good. i expected a quick kinda whatever read but i really enjoy this

i am enjoying this story but there is one issue. the cult requires self-mutilation but there is no reason why. its giving desert fathers, but the man who burned his fingers did so to remind him of the fires of hell. the women call their self-mutilation 'sacrifices' so my only guess is that due to the state of the earth, they have nothing to offer as sacrifices besides their own blood, not animal blood or crops.

it’s giving kornel filipowicz’s memoir of an antihero. love it.

can we leave casca alone. for like ten minutes please.

in guts own sane and calm words, “GRIFFFFITHHHHH!!!!!” like yeah. uh huh. exactly.

if anything happens to puck i simply will not make it. it will be maes hughes level of crashout. kentaro miura. please. don’t hurt them.

i had no idea there was gonna be so much medical horror in this collection and i’m a weenie and medical horror scares me so bad. had to take a break from this yesterday lol

why is this actually so good im eating this up fr

cool world building and fun characters… but the cast is definitely bloated and there are some parts that would read better as an essay than fiction. i think this author would have benefitted from letting the story speak for itself—trusting the audience to understand—and not referencing things in footnotes or in narration. it’s good and important information but is a bit jarring at times. enjoying this tho.

i think it should be a crime that when we finally get to the chapter on batman and robin, the author spends OVER HALF the chapter summarizing hamlet (which i have never read in my life obviously and need that summary for /sarcasm) to pretty much come to the conclusion that yeah batman and hamlet really aren’t that similar. what if i started hurting people. what then. what’s the psychology of that.

ngl this is so nothing burger. why does this author act as if we’ve never read a batman comic before. pls. no more gotham rogues recaps or recaps of every single batman incarnation. just dig slightly deeper than the surface. please. i promise we can handle it. “the riddler has compulsive tendencies” yeah brother a ten year old who only watches batwheels could have told me that

kafka would love this fr

literally horrifying and she hasn’t even stepped foot inside the school yet
