just finished Houseki no kunidid she deserve it?
>>282944362nobody deserves anything that happens to them, not the good things and not the bad things
>>282944362Only Phos was pure enough to turn suffering into something good, so like maybe she did deserve it
>If we make her hate us enough, eventually she will be too exhausted to care.>Genius!
lmao fuck Phos.
No, and the moonies didn't deserve the easy way out either.If ichikawa had balls instead of masturbating to daddy the whole last stretch of the manga, phos would have prayed himself away and fucked off, but nooo, Buddhism took preference.
>>282944362yes! that's the price of becoming a god
cinnabar makes me seethe more than Griffith, i just cant explain why.
>>282945062you think every manga should end with the MC killing themself out of spite
>>282945244i think it's because of the constant authorial intent that cinnabar is right and phos is wrong and that phos should care about cinnabar but it's ok for cinnabar to give no fucks about phos because it's all phos fault for going to the moon without her
>30 chapters of padding>Just to reach chapter 108 as finale
>>282945244Worst gem
>>282945407No, just this particular one, because >be the absolute worst humans around>zero self reflection>can't advance>torture someone else to pray you away>spend 10000 years partying instead of reflecting>... get what you wantIt was as unsatisfying as it gets.
>>282945964What's the point of Phos holding on to 10,000 years of anger? What does it achieve?
>>282945964isn't that the point? showing the retardedness of Pure Land?
It doesn't matter if there's retribution or anything, the ending just feels experimental in the worst of ways.>write 98 chapters about internal struggles, personal growth, post apocalyptic creatures>dude just run Disk defragment on that thing for 10000 years>time skip>everyone turns into basically a different being>poof>entirely different storySo yeah, not exactly the most satisfying of endings.
>>282946136>>282946153That's why putting the themes of a story before characters or rational actions sucks>no you see my story is about Buddhism so of course phos would let 10000 years if torture go away
>>282946278>it's bad writing when the character doesn't act like me
>>282946278You can't just say it's irrational. Why should Phos hold on to that anger, what's the point?
>>282946200Phos genociding everything would have been 10 times better
>>282946278>tfw seeking Enlightenment is just that
>>282946465Anon is NOT escaping samsara
>>282944362>did she deserve it?asking this question reveals that you have yet to grasp dukkha
>>282946278you need to remember that these "characters" are immortal rock people with no real conception of time
>>282946525dukk dez nutz
>>282945062You'll never reach enlightenment that way
>>282944362Deserve's got nothing to do with it.
>>282945964>>zero self reflectionThey changed their ways and made amends by fixing the gems>>can't advanceYes, that's the cause of their suffering >>torture someone else to pray you awayPhos wanted to be the saviour, he got what he wanted>>spend 10000 years partying instead of reflectingExistence is suffering for them, they waited 10000 more years in anxiety over whether Phos would pray or not
>>282946153Is it retarded if it works though? At the end everyone got what they wanted.>>282944362Phos burned through all bad karma from going into a revenge arc and ended up in a better spot. Usually Buddhist hells last significantly longer than that so Phos was actually lucky here.
>>282946278>>282945964Don't you see that this is the buddha nature?It means nothing, who these people are and what they have done. It is the same, whether they have wronged you or not. They mean nothing and it costs you nothing to send them on their way.There is no reason why Phos wouldn't just do it, because Phos has no attachment to this world. To borrow from another one of the vinegar tasters:>The heavens are not humane, they treat all things as straw dogs.>The sage is not humane, he treats all people as straw dogs.
>>282946407>inb4 ErenfagHonestly if you get to the point where the MC killing everyone is narratively sound but you can't actually do it, then you fucked up somewhere.
>>282946407i mean, she didShe make whole moonie disappear out of exitance
>>282944362>she
>>282946278your ass is going to Naraku for 1 billion years and coming back as a worm
You can tell that at some point Ichikawa had an itch, she just had to draw a bunch of impossibly pretty women being glamorous and wild and sexually unrestrained, and she destroyed her own plot to fit it into the story, then regretted it, wiped the board clean, introduced the rock bro collection, then quickly ended the story and pretended it was planned. I won't blame anyone for having a weird horny phase but if she had to schlick her rocks off so badly.she should just have put the manga on pause to get it out of her system.

>>282946407But that's ehat phos did. They killed all the earth gems and sensei. It just vot followed up by the moonies taking all the gems to the moon, because that's what they'd do anyway
Is there any way to read this without the tranny subtext, im not an esl and know that "they" can refer to someone in the singular, but im also not an idiot and know that "they" is used when the person that is being refered to is unknow/hidden/not present
