Back after a week. Was waiting to see more of the mom and crazy backstory, Fujimoto strikes again. Why'd anyone wanna cheat on with that gyaatt though. Also that ending, ouf.

Such a great chapter. I loved it so much. Denji and Asa's laugh made it the best one in a while.

Asa backstory was a nice touch to her character and how she views certain things. As she mentioned, after her dad's death, their life got better. But, at the same time, taking a life is bad. So, her question was genuine to Denji. But Denji has a perfect answer for that. It was a wholesome moment between them, and the way they laughed was very cute. Loved this chapter.

Nothing like bonding over your dads dying 💀
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Neither of them is a good person, and that's fine, I guess. This series pretty much never had any morally just characters to begin with.
Pretty good chapter. Would like to see more of Asa's mom but that's probably not going to happen.

Ngl this chapter's short length made up for the amount of lore drops we got right here.

So many things fit neatly into few pages. Fajita Mat has the potential to surpass Part 1's storytelling in the next few chapters. Let's see if he banks in on it or fails miserably.

i don't know if this is trauma bonding or patricide bonding, but these two crazies are so made for each other. fujimoto better follow through on this peak relationship building. asa's mom was definitely going through it.

Wasn't it the yakusa that made it look like it was suicide to profit of Denji ? Denji's brain reaction to the trauma and the yakusa lie both helped him reshape his memory into thinking it was suicide.
Or did I read wrong ?

I'm very unimpressed by this chapter. They are probably on the hood side compared to most characters in this series but everyone is in a morally gray area. Even evil people believe they are good or arrogant doing things for a just reason, so......

Asa and Denji are at the peak of their battles and the backstories are getting deeper. It's time for Part 2 to attend now that we are in Volume 23. We're getting deeper into the backstories of Asa: insurance payout, mother murdering the father, losing legs by weak devils. This is getting deeper. ☹️

This sick and twisted chapter released on my birthday, and I gotta admit this was pretty great. Specifically the look on Asa's face after realizing her mom actually killed her dad. You can't just do that stuff to children, but she did anyways. So many manga go to the morally gray area, but this one I'd say works well. The laughing in the end is kinda freaky though.

- asa : ... okaa-san ... , watashi-tachi ... , otou-san ...

dad is doing the yamcha death pose ? lol .

- mother : ... otou-san ... , asa , call the devil hunters ...
- me : and mother shows her true intentions with that line . in this situation , 1st , you should call for helps / call an ambulance , then call the devil hunters / the cops later .

- mother :
yo my husband , in the past , you hurted me with your c0ck many times . now i will hurt you with this rock-hard rock , lol pun ,
... watashi am ... , otou-san 's most biggest crime was : he dared to cheat on me , his penalty was death .
i guess you can say : the NEET dead-beat dad was beated to dead , lol pun .

- denji : ... ore am , ... ore killed oyaji ...

so the punch-line here is : actually , humans are more eviler than devils ?

so far , we have 2 dead dads , and maybe many more dead dads in other manga-s of this mangaka . this mangaka had some troubles with his dad or something ? lol .

and sh0ta denji and l0li asa and MILF mother in 1 chapter , mmmmm .
