And that's all for today. What's your opinion on meganes?
>>268813425they're great
>>268812343>>268813114>>268813425Can't have shit.
>>268813425Thank you for posting.
>>268813425They are cute OP.
>>268813425Thanks, OP. So we get another bullying chapter, huh?>QThey are cute on cute girls (not this chapter's girl though).
>>268812439Where's my positive effect of the NWA on the morals of the citizens now?>>268813245No evidence the fuck, she posted a point table for harassing and perpretrating crimes against somebody. Plus the phrase which the teacher knew was scribbled on the book is enough circumstantial evidence to get the law involved. Pass that to any press with her name and she'll die a social death too.
>>268817325>Where's my positive effect of the NWA on the morals of the citizens now?It would have been much worse without the NWA, dear citizen.For a better explanation on why, please stay put and ask our officers when they arrive.
>>268813425We could use more of them. That said, dear god, this is turning into something out of Jigoku Shojou/Hell Girl.
thanks, OP>>268813062fucking women, every time>>268813425megane a best, especially if they have thick eyebrowsi chose my escort in Tobita Shinchi because she had "oppai to megane" and she giggled when i said that
>>268817969>braid and glasses are the bestBased beyond belief.
>>268812203Wow, sensitive much?
>>268812411>>268812439Those are low interaction numbers for something like this.
>>268812570The font choices do ruin some moments. I wish the typesetting was better.
>>268812801Horror movie moment.
>>268813425Thx mate
>>268813425
>>268813425Thanks for the read, OPBuilt for getting flustered
>>268819482lol
>>268812086Are they supposed to be highschoolers?
>>268823360Wouldn’t make sense if they were in middle school
>>268824056Yeah but they look like adults
>>268823360>>268824056>>268824061Has reading comprehension fallen this far? It literally says she was in middle school during the bullying and probably elsewhere too.>>268812663
>>268825007>Has reading comprehension fallen this far? Back to you. I'm explicitly quoting this page >>268812086 where they're in highschool.
>>268825018Junior high school ( >>268812053 ) is middle school in Japan my man, even clearer if you can into nip since it says 中学校 right there. The only high school the ikigami'd entered is the nursing one.
>>268825356My point is that they look 20-25
>>268813425>QI approve.
>>268812801Deserved desu
>>268813062I wonder how long it'll be before that smartphone looks dated.
>>268817325Clearly we need to increase the quota.
>>268830614
>>268830614Way ahead of you, dear citizen.
>>268830874hehe
A bump for all the true patriots reading this.
>>268825367I could see them being 19-20.
>>268825367Maybe they couldn't get age appropriate actors because of the violence involved.
We're not dead yet.
>resort to using miscreants as couriersif the NWA was privatized this wouldn't happen
>>268837984But minister anon, think of all the sweet, sweet corruption money we'd be missing out on!
>>268838562even corruption these days are handled by third parties. just lay back and reap the profits!
>>268837984
>>268813425murder suicide lets go!!!!

Episode 2, Act 2: After-effect
>>268812027How does randomly killing off 18-24 year olds help a nation prosper and demonstrate the 'value of life'?
>>268846539It doesn't.
>>268846539There's very sound logic behind itRead the prequel manga
>>268846539That question is answered in Ikigami
And that's all for today. Are you a good speaker?
>>268846730What a self-entitled bitch. Just become the first TV announcer with a speech disability.>>268847042I won't be talk no jutsu'ing myself out of anything but I don't fumble too much either.
Howdy, OP>>268846789>>268846840spread>>268847042thanks, OP. I can give presentations well enough, but that's about it. I can't convince anyone of anything on a personal level
>>268846539It makes people value their lives by knowing it might end. In a safe, peaceful society, it's the only way for citizens to experience that so they don't become decadent and self-destructing. The feeling of loss is the only thing that makes us people. That's the glory of the National Welfare Act.
>>268847042Thanks, OP. Yeah. I can speak, you know, words and stuff.
>>268847042>Are you a good speaker?No.
>>268846539thats some dangerous thoughts citizen. keep talking like that, and i have to report you.
>>268847042Thank you for posting.
>>268846323>>268846358Geez pop, nice going.
>>268846730Some people just arent worth it.
>>268846920Guess she didn't see this one coming.
>>268847042Thx mate.
>>268846539That question doesn't sound very patriotic.
>>268847042>QOnly with a lot of preparation.
>>268847042Thanks for the read, OPNah
>>268848127Yo, anon.
>>268837984What would the profit model be?
>>268848829This is why need the NWA.
>>268856376You have to pay an Ikigami processing fee upon delivery. Yeah that’s right, you should have to pay for the privilege of being told you’re dead in 24 hours. This isn’t a charity!
>>268858649That would make being a messenger a far more dangerous job.
>>268812027Picked up, thanks OP.
>>268860797Based.
>>268860797You need to read the original first, silly.
>>268860468Realistically speaking this would be a quite dangerous job since they're the #1 target for frustration.
>>268860797Read the original first. Appreciate the National Welfare Act. Then come back.
>>268864039Yeah, the only defense would be that the person receiving the ikigami is automatically suspect and thus the pension is at risk.
>>268847411Gotta dream big.
>>268848596All hail the NWA.
>>268864039I'm surprised HQ hasn't gotten a mail bomb or something like that.
It's not our turn.
Episode 2, Act 3: After-effect
>>268876598and there you have it folksJust bully the mentally handicapped, they'll just get over it
>>268877299damn straight! god I love the NWA
And that's all for today and all for the last fully translated volume.You aren't under a lot of stress, are you?
>>268876670>>268876717And that should have been a spread...
>>268877490Thanks for the dump
>>268873540It would be hard to get/make one in 24 hours and The Nation is so full of glowies whoever is left would probably not be able to go very far.
>>268877490Thanks, OP. I'M NOT UNDER STRESS WHO SAID I AM????
>a woman was able to come to terms with her bullying and move on>she was learned forgiveness and kindness and helped her former bully>the bully became a better person and educated herself on the injustices of the world>all thanks to the GLORIOUS National Welfare ActMiscreants will still find a way to say these are bad things.
What if one of the people who get it is the stepson of a foreign politician? Like what if someone from Japan adopted a child and this one turns out have the it?Would that be considered an act of war? They would be murdering a foreigner from an allied country?
Howdy, OP>>268876835raw>>268877036i've seen this trick before>>268877490thanks, OP. Not that much stress, I can still pick and choose my battles>>268880422once again, the future is preserved and made a better place
>>268877490Ah, uh, no I don't have deadlines looming all over me while I waste time reading manga and shitposting, definitely not...
>>268882086>i've seen this trick beforePlace your bets:>glowie>revolutionary>just a busybody doctor
>>268876835all thanks to NWA
>>268880422I come everyday for this post...
>>268880422But mr. bald headed glowie, couldn't this have been achieved by training and employing capable school faculty workers who know how to handle bullying cases and don't budge at the slightest hint of intimidation?It would have been much faster, less expensive and best of all no one would have had to die.
>>268877036>>268877080Oh for fuck's sake!!!
>>268877490Thank you for posting.
LIVE!
>>268880422The lies miscreants will tell. Truly staggering.
>>268876914RIP spectacle monkey.
>>268877490>QI used to be but not anymore. It's a big improvement.
>>268877490nyes
I know it’s against the concept of the series but I’d really like to see more depressing kinds of ends and stories where someone just completely loses it or they get depressed and spend their remaining time getting wasted and then die a pathetic death alone in an alley between bouts of puking their guts our instead of the usual “they expired surrounded by their family at home”.
>>268894272This is not for you.
>>268894272>>268895577The hidden message: Thanks to the NWA, one in a thousand die a meaningful death, usually surrounded by their loved ones. Isn't that great?!
May this thread bolster the board's welfare.
>>268896400Outsiders don't understand the glory of the NWA. Only those who live it know the truth.
>>268897546Anon, too soon... again.
>>268897546What are you gonna if this thread hits bump limit?
A bump for the NWA.
>>268877551It looks much better that way.
>>268897546This thread has served in the war against The Federation so it doesn't need to die anymore.>>268896400Are you still alive, old man?
