This ghost is half ramen noodle.
He has a very trustworthy mustache.
>megu is a gainsgoblinMaybe the voice in his head is right about her.
Hooked.
S-tier hat game.
Believe it or not, even Naruse is capable of 99IQ level schemes.
i am here
>>283366410Welcome to the party.
Freudian.
The game was rigged from the start.
>doctor's excuses ran outPoor guy.
>>283365548Bump for spooky shit
Maybe that brain surgery wasn't worth it if this was the result....
I've seen rants exactly like this on /a/.
He earned this.
Look at 'him' go.
>>283366437thats a really fucked thing to say
She's got sharp ears.
>>283367555Some people have a way with words.
i am reading PSTD radio along with this, pretty spooky
Its so over. >>283367742>PTSD RadioSeems like an interesting one, I'll have to check it out.
>getting mindjacked by a pretentious assholeUnbearable suffering. Worse than the murderous impulses.
Giving him the run around.
Megu? More like Mogged-u
Nice grip strength exercise.
That is all for today. I hope you all enjoyed. Stick around for tomorrow when things start spiraling out of control. Overall, Naruse isn't exactly the most proactive about his circumstances, but he's really the trusting type more than anything else. His brain buddy isn't much of a researcher either, it seems. Are you the type to have trouble living? Not great at getting along in the world?
Is this manga like Homunculus?
>>283365548part Flowers for AlgernonI read ahead after yesterdays volume, the story reminded me of Bulgakov's Heart of a Dog.>>283367742>>283367783>PTSD radioI didn't like how most of the stories were just a few pages of random scary events, with stories barely connected to each other.But it gets really spooky when the author starts talking about his IRL experiences at the end of volume 5.
>>283368858Far less psychedelic than Homunculus.Stronger characters though.
>>283369495>Heart of a Dog I wasn't familiar with that one, but yeah. It sounds like there's some good similarities.Glad it interested you enough to read ahead.
>>283369495What do you meant everything is connected on Ptsd and also It is the spookiest shit ever
Have a bump
>>283373916Arigato.
>>283368858This and Homunculus are basically the diametrically opposed takes on a brain injury thriller series. With Homunculus going all in on the internal perception drama, and this on the interpersonal drama.
>>283368025>went from /tv/ patrician to /r9k/fagSad!>>283368815I'd sooner kms than accept developing such shit taste.
>>283366531Is Dougen supposed to not be Japanese? He doesn't look very Japanese and you can pronounce "dougen" in Japanese but it sounds like a Chinese name, Japanese surnames don't use onyomi like that. Sounds like it could be the Scottish "Dougan."
>>283368841Thank you for posting, OP.
>>283379141I don't think its said explicitly but he's plausibly/probably an immigrant. Like you say, the name doesn't fit and he doesn't really look Japanese in a work with a grounded aesthetic.
another bump
>>283383225Life is all about the bumps you pick up along the way.
>>283378322Its actually worse to have your brain taken over by a banal dumb and violent asshole with shit taste in everything than for the parasite to be a super genius villain. At least the latter has some cool aspects.
Fun that the thread survived the night. Onto Volume 3, where everything comes tumbling down.
The plot thickens.
>>283388505how is the other works of the mangaka?
This is what a trustworthy mustache really looks like.
>>283388960I haven't read it, but Ikigami, the artist's other manga, has a good reputation.
He looks like an Otomo character now.
His brain buddy's fastidiousness is its most unique trait.
The Japanese care deeply about gastrointestinal tract health.
He really fell for the oldest trick in the book.
He's officially the world's most honorable lawyer.
Dirty boy.
Out of the mouth of babes.
>>283389840>>283389863Wouldnt the out of tune thing work with ears and not with the brain?
>>283390012Do people with perfect pitch have structurally different ears or is it a brain wiring difference?
Police don't really care about confidentiality in this country.
My apologies, I'm going to have to take a break to deal with something. I do not know when I'll be back.
>>283390267Return
>>283388960>>283389025This one has a different author. Ikigami is done by just the artist. It's interesting how many panels remind me of Ikigami.
Sorry about the delay. All interrupters have been executed.
What a charmer.
>>283392551As if proove that you are the OP
>>283392659I can suck a golf ball through a garden hose. Who other than OP could have head game that good?
>>283392551welcome back
He's got a rough go of it.
When you can even dodge death, there's nothing to hold you back.
The slight art shift in how faces are shaded is interesting to see.
>guy stealing your brain turns out to have a big incest fetishNaruse really just can't win.
Poor cuck....
Kyougoku really was just the worst dude ever to get a brain transplant from.
What strange arcane ancient technology.
Surely all according to plan.
>taken over by a psychopathic incestual moronThree strikes!It can't get any worse, right?
>>283393589get fucked homewrecker
Megu is just too good for this world.
Maybe ride or die is too much of a commitment.
Thats all for today. Thanks for sticking with me through the interruption. Big things happened today, and they're going to keep happening for our finale. Someone has to be the first test subject for anything, but finding out what exactly you were a test for is not always a fun experience, it seems. When are you going to try killing someone for the first time? If not, what are you? A total coward?
>>283393753Well, that was earlier.
>>283394050Thank you for posting.
>>283394050Thanks anon
>>283391286There are only so many ways you can draw semirealistic distressed Japanese men.
bump in the night
>>283393131Going to be honest senpai, interesting premise, but it's going to shit for me here. Best girl doesn't deserve this. Also fucking your brain spliced patient who spelled out his gf problems in the name of LOVE...give me a break. Ill read on in the hopes it redeems itself
>>283401035Well, it really didn't go as she wanted it to. Turns out banging the mentally unstable violent madman, has the outcome you'd expect.
