Chapter 2 of the new series from Ryo Minenami, author of Boy's Abyss."Strange times fall upon Miko’s small town life when a mysterious man purchases his family’s mountain."Last chapter we were introduced to Miko's friends--a girl he has a crush on, and a guy who asked his permission to date her--and we learned that a strange, leaf-faced man had purchased part of his family's mountain in their rural town. At the end of the chapter Miko and his friends came upon this leafy fellow as he was constructing his mountainous lair. Will they confront him?
>>287334010Wait is this weekly?Naisu
>>287334068zero stealth from these kids
>>287334077Weekly indeed. And this chapter is almost 30 pages. Not sure if that's normal for Young Jump or if it'll go down to 19-20 pages later.

>>287334461Atleast he still has feelings for mountain-chan and not only being stupid to impress Momiji.
What a page.
>>287334512This fag is cheating on the Mountain.
>>287334512>imagine the smell
>>287334512Same, Miko.
>>287334557Maple leaf bastard is my favorite so far.
>>287334533>my friend just told me that his gf, who is my crush, is a bitch>>now's the time to woo her!
>>287334415I don't think he's gay. I think he's autistic.
>>287334415He looks like he'll snap and beat her ass Gen style
>>287334512I knew he was gonna sniff but I didn't expect full face immersion
>>287334585Happens more often that you think lol

>>287334512kek
>>287334512>SNIFFHe is literally anon
>>287334734Thanks Anon, it was a nice chapter.
>>287334659So he won't tell his friend to dump her but he will try to ruin their relationship, what is this mental illness?
>>287334441>I need you to fuck me, Miko, I need you to fuck me and rape my girlfriend>*Sigh* I miss my mountain...
>>287334557I think it's funnier that it's not a mask and he actually just stuck a leaf to his face
>>287334734Yeah I'm hooked, I'm expecting trainwreck cringekino misery(but actually comedic) porn storytelling here just like in abyss.
>>287334441Are we back to yanhomos?
>>287334734Thanks for posting OPI needed a new girl to project my rape fantasies onto
>>287334708I DON'T WANT TO LIKE EVIL WOMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>287335050Anon, all women are evil
>>287334233>>287334708I'm starting to like her honestly
>>287335194I like Roka way more, and Makita too.
>>287334540>This fag is cheating on the Mountain.
>>287335407
>>287334233Evil women all around me
>>287335050I like evil women, but I draw the line at manipulative evil women
>>287334579He's gonna lost both the mountain and Momiji
Friend is 100% gay, but will we see him in a dress and makeup like Gen? God that was the funniest shit
>>287334391>>287334415This guy has already caught on the bitch's act.
>>287334512Yep, this is peak indeed
>>287334708Damn
>>287334734Thanks for the dump, OP!
Is she using the gay friend to make him jealous? or does she simply wants every men to be in the palm of her hand?
>>287336149She's just bored, don't know if she cares about other men.
>>287334348>>287334391YESSSSSSS FEED ME MORE HATABLE CHARACTERS
>>287334360The friend knows she is a bitch>>287334110I feel this guy just wants to be left alone in the mountain without needing to deal with people bs
>>287334602Momiji has Yuko's vibes.The class queen... you know who had that power in the town.>>287336149>or does she simply wants every men to be in the palm of her hand?This.The synopsys says it's a love-hate story, so by the end, and knowing the foreshadowings, Miko will meet his end at the hands of Momiji, and not the chainsaw kamen.Unless it's a pun pun red herring and he's wishing to die bc he became the murderer against his desires, then he gets saved and owned by Makita.Knowing the way Ryo introduces characters, have a feeling Makita will become prominent too. Be the Protochunko to Miko's Akira, but only to make Momiji jealous because SHE wants Momiji.
>>287334010where's the special needs tomboy
>>287336634>I feel this guy just wants to be left alone in the mountain without needing to deal with people bsChainsaw Kamen is Makita... or her mom. Miko will get curious and go to the mountain alone and by accident will find out the masked woman identity. SHe will demand Miko to keep heris identity a secret and since then, they will share a twisted and sick bond between outcasts.The fact Ryo made this post where she put early drafts of panels with Momiji, Miko and Makita (but not Roka) make obvious who will be the predominant characters.
>>287334708>>287334734She's not wrong.
>>287337094That's the mistery...Chainsaw kamen has the same unkempt hair and holds a Makita chainsaw.The tomboy is called Makita.Make the connection. The chainsaw kamen dude isn't a dude, but a woman. And only pretends to be retarded.
>>287335087That's the best part.
>>287337140>>287337176But chainsaw guy has a beard >>287334557and he seems bigger in size
>>287337272You've a point.We're 2 chapters in after all.But still seems strange Aspergers tomboy name is called after a chainsaw manufacturer. Then there's Ryo's draftshttps://x.com/i/status/2041162692392862095Either she's a gag or will start to get involved in Miko's mountain autism and her spergout is actually a show and happens she's also a devious tomboy.Considering it's a love-hate story, all this shit can perfectly turn into a love-hate square with disastrous results.>Momiji --> uses Roka to make Miko jealous ---> Roka is gay for Miko (slso has death flags raised) ---> Miko's a mountain autist <---- Makita takes advantage of Miko's mountain autism and gives him adventures on the mountain just to make Momiji jealous because she wants her.
>>287334512could've been worse
>>287334182That feral girl wouldn't twist her ankle.. momiji a pussy ass bitch
>>287334391I know that feel, you're alright
>>287338134Gomi... What a man you are...
>>287334010Boy's peak.
>>287334708This line will come back, I am sure of it...
>>287334391The thot patroller.John Peak.
>>287334512My kind of mc.
>>287334762At least Reiji's sniffing her asshole now.
>>287334391>>287334415Already miserable and it's chap 2, yep this truly is a ryo mineami mango
>>287339378>yep this truly is a ryo mineami mangoWe're still missing the tranny and the girl who was molested as a child
>>287334512Yelled ‘KINO’ after this
>>287339732I mostly miss sensei and her walking dildo turned Aliexpress Sasuke.SHE SHOULD HAVE WON!!PD: Kiyomi, it's your turn to avenge her
>>287340180>KINO instead of PEAKNgmi
>>287334721the PEAK(s)
>>287334708Cummed to this btw
>>287334322>>287334630>>287334708>these peaks... are HAUNTED!
>>287334708How do you respond without sounding mad?
>>287334585>skill issue, I'm different!Man moment
>>287341638>Ok I'll just go with your boyfriend instead. He likes me more anyway
>>287341638She is right though.
>>287341638I AM THE DANGER
>>287341638If the homo option doesn't work:>Hey, that nasty unfeminine classmate who made a scandal the other day seems someone fun to hang around and she offered herself to go to the mountain next day.
>>287341638>You are right, see you laterAnd then you act like nothing happened, indifference is what make this bitches mad
>>287334461So this guy's family is loaded now, right? They have a big windfall from selling a large amount of property, and this kid should see some benefit to his lifestyle and opportunities because of it? His parents aren't total bumblefucks who let it go for peanuts, right? ...Right?
>>287343190I wonder if the author even thought about that for a second.
>>287334213Well yeah, he has a tulpa of that girl following him him when he goes to the mountain alone.
>>287334391BASED
>>287334708
>>287343307What if the tulpa is real??And is a relative to Chainsaw Kamen?
>>287334708I love the way this artist draw boob tent.
>>287343409I'm guessing she uses herself as a model
>>287343368What if the tulpa is ghost girl?
>>287334708She definitely hates him.This is gonna go le CSM route, but as a BSS/NTR where she ends seducing and fucking the entire classroom simply to spite on him.
>>287343712Kek the tulpa is the ghost girl Miko imagines.
>>287343409Tarou fumbled HARD. Instead chose a fucking faux tranny with the body of a loli.Gladly Reiji and Kaito chose right.
>>287334182Rapeable
>>287334391>you gotta treat em a little like dirt
>>287334441>stable as the mountain that's been sold
>>287335024Machi and OboroFucking hell why'd you make me remember that one, another entry to my "I'll never forgive the Japanese" list
>>287334489Jerk off
>>287334579Yeah, from this moment everything's getting fucked
>>287334734Thanks for the dump
>>287334734Still hoping for a mountain ghost loli to appear
>>287334233>>287334708why does she hate him?
>>287345201He is more interested in a mountain
>>287334233Hot. But that's half the pages with Momiji tho.
>>287334233Yeah it's time to run away from her
>>287334233>slutstareAyy karramba!
i'd be surprised if Momiji were still a virgin desu, you just know how ryou draws female's faces that have drowned in semen
>>287334512SNIIIIIIIIIIIFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
>>287338134>Gomi-kun...
>>287340328What the fuck?! Do all Anons in thread are actually fans of the same kino fucked up manga?!
>>287345906It's worse than a slutstare.It's the utter contempt stare.
>>287334512>a faint smell of sweat, pussy and assholeSNIFF
>>287345970I agree. It's that kind of stare that is a red flag, but also makes you curious as fuck what's gonna happen next.
>hate Miko due to reason>she's also hated by her own bf on her backwill the leaf man take her?
>>287334391I feel so conflicted, in one hand I adore evil women, on the other, he's so based.
>>287334233>>287334415>>287334441>>287334708>dark foreground onto the characteryup it's Ryo Minenami's manga alright
>>287334708>slutface>slutsmirk>huge titsFuck, I know she's evil, but wow.
>>287343409Same.
>>287334182>wish he would carry me instead
>>287334461YOU CAN'T KEK ME OUT OF MY MOUNTAIN, YOU LEAF FUCK
>>287345201Maybe he rejected her. Gay friend-kun said that she is an alpha bitch and those bitches don't like when someone don't do what they want
I was ready the first chapter again and Momiji was a lot nicer to MC, this chapter it feels that she secretly hates him or something, maybe she hates him because the guy is an outcast
>>287347871*reading
lmao
>>287347871Miko seemed to only be passive until now, so him being proactive makes Momiji see him in a new light.
>>287334233Red flag that MC will gladly walk into>>287334262>>287334293>I can't carry her I'm wearing loafers>just put your bag between your boobs and his backI already guessed he's gay, but damn.
This seems fun to keep up weekly. How is mangaka's track record?
>>287334461>muh paperwork>muh brother in lawHow does this kid know so much about buying property? I'm starting to think he is behind the plot or knows the real truth about MC being cucked out of his mountain
>>287334585"She will be different for me" is eternal.
>>287348007Maybe she doesn't like him being out of his role
>>287335589Gen was a violent degen, but this fag is the manipulative type. He will put Miko in a dress before he wears on himself.
>>287348083>How is mangaka's track record?>himegoto>hatsukoi zombie>shounen no abyssall of them had regular chapter threads when they were being published, not sure about himegoto but it had threads back in 2014-2015
>>287345201Until recently he's been rejecting her for mountain-kun. For an attentionwhore like her that must have been torture. Now she finally has his attention, but she's also a manipulative bitch.
>>287348152This guy doesn't seem like the manipulative type. He just seem depressed maybe he knows what happens when you go against the evil bitch whishes
>>287334068>>287334110C-...Ch-Chainsaw Man?!
>>287334233>that smile>that damned smile
>>287334262>bowtiehe's a fujobait, isn't he?
>>287348229>This guy doesn't seem like the manipulative type.You're right, but I await his inevitable Ryo style suffering-evolution with great interest.
>>287348083>How is mangaka's track record?She's an evil woman
>>287334305even little bratty imouto?
>>287334734Thanks anon. I love Minenami manga
>>287334441let me guess, in the end mountain will get leveled by a landslide.
>>287334734>still wearing her boyfriend's tiekinda cute, even though their relationship seems doomed.
>>287348170>>287348319is she 'good' good or trainwreck good?
>>287348418both
>>287348418yes
>>287334734thanks for the dump.
>>287334557LeafCHAD.
>>287334557this maple-jisan is the manga's esemori
>>287348418People genuinely like boys abyss but everyone agreed it overstays its welcome and should have ended like 30 - 40 chapters sooner.
>>287349376yeah also ryo should've at least made nagi much more active, i guessrevealing her backstory when it's nearing the end doesn't help
>>287348170>hatsukoi zombie>shounen no abyssIs it weird that I just now learned those were the same person? I haven't really read either, just seen people posting about both here and there, mostly the Boy's Abyss, so I never actually knew much about them, much less who made them.So it's really fucking funny to try and reconcile what little I know about both as coming from the same person. Like Yakumo-san and Sumire-chan, I guess.
>>287334233>>287334348>>287334708>no blushoh boy
>>287334708Point made. She’s bored but not that bored. Not everyone is a glove sniffing mountain lover willing to risk their life against Chainsaw Leafman for the sake of the mountain. And they’re barely friends. If anything mountain boy is just embarrassing himself with his thinly-veiled crush that anyone within a 5 foot radius can see through.
>>287334010I'm betting a tenner, the romance aspect will never go too deep and MC kun will be hopelessly obsessed with the mountainAs he should be
>>287349939The romance aspect will stay in his mind. The girl doesn't care for him, maybe even will grow to hate him. She is nothing like his imagined version of her. She is dating Roka because he's the popular guy. Roka is dating her because it would be a pain in the ass to turn her down, but he clearly isn't into it either. She is the town princess(queen) and everything has to revolve around her, but it seems it's not enough for her. I kind of expect something bad happening to her further down the line and that being the turning point of the story.
>>287349796We know from chapter 1 Miko's gonna die a slow death or be in a near death scenario. And i'm 51% sure Momiji may be the executioner of that.But still dunno what happened to make Momiji spite on him. Doubt he's *just* after a tulpa. Maybe there's something more to it. Probably someone who shared the same mountain 'tism, but died or had to move in and Momiji felt disowned as the alpha bitch because Miko prefered that person over her.Miko being at the bottom of the social hierarchy also seems artificially made, because otherwise, Roka shouldn't be his friend. I wouldn't be surprised if we get other characters (special needs tomboy or other characters) be actually nice or even start hanging around and telñing him dark facts about Momiji..We may end getting more friction as the chapters go in.
>>287350000>Miko being at the bottom of the social hierarchy also seems artificially made, because otherwise, Roka shouldn't be his friend.Wouldn't they just be childhood friends? They played together when they were kids, but when they went to school the social hierarchy formed and he is at the bottom, but they still interact outside of school.
>>287349989Doubt it will be just in his head. It's a Ryo manga, so the bare minimum is having someone orbiting the MC other than the male friend.Gotta bet there will have a bitch who will develop feelings bc "weak MC who can't back his proactiveness up with a talent to always get in trouble needs 2b protected" and become the direct target of Momiji's hatred against Miko.And maybe a twist... Momiji's hatred may not be because fuck yeah, it may be rooted.Gotta leave this: hate isn't the opposite of love, but rather another side of it.Miko will also end hating Momiji at a certain point.
>>287350055>but they still interact outside of school.But Momiji now does it in a passive-aggro way. Or maybe it was always like that and Momiji's hatred is deep rooted since childhood.
>>287348087It doesn't take a lot to know that buying property has more to it than just giving someone money and calling it a day.
>>287350221Guaranteed that something happened between Miko and Momiji during childhood. Miko responded to it by retreating to the mountain while Momiji became the town princess.
Inb4 JC momiji got raped by ojiisan while miko only watched from afar
>>287350528Nah, they are too amicable for something that extreme. It has to be something petty or subtle.
>>287350344Probably Momiji having a woman moment about Miko's obsession and insulting his dangerous hobby, then Miko being a tactless kid lashing out declaring his utter contempt at her, causing her transformation, realizing then that he fucked up big, but not realizing that he made something change in Miko's heart 'till years later.
>>287350708I don't know what the moment will be about, but from the two chapters out I can make the following observations/guesses. - The past event that screwed everybody up revolves around Miko, mountain-kun, Momiji, and possibly tangentially Roka. - Miko can't car about/maintain relationships outside of mountain, Momiji, and Roka because of this trauma. He is unpopular at school because he doesn't make an effort to relate to anyone. - Roka is a bro who has been waiting for Miko to break out of his isolation for a long time. - retard girl seems like a gag but will be plot relevant
>>287351044>retard girl seems like a gag but will be plot relevantShe's called Makita, just like the irl chainsaw manufacturer. That should be enough of a foreshadow of her getting more involved.My hunch is that she'll become Miko's sort of bodyguard when Roka can't be there for him bc she'll think he's weak and her retardation is just a facade. In Ryo's fashion, Miko will see a side of the "retard" that will leave him curious and will delude himself that maybe she looks a lot like the tulpa... slowly making Momiji more triggered.The 1st third big reveal will be Momiji having had feelings for Miko, but *that* incident having turned them into hatred. Makita may be one of the triggers for that moment, the other, Miko having a near death experience during one of his escapades
https://x.com/i/status/2042209277180530800>Well, heroine.(Ryou going ironic towards Momiji lmaoooooo. She already found her newest creator's pet. In abyss, it was shared between Yuri/Yuuko/Gen depending on the arc, in Zombie, it was Ebin, and in Himegoto, it was Mikako).
>>287350528immense ntr doujin potential.
I'm just waiting for more of the lanklet gremlin. Especially when she gets moments where she's drawn more feminine.
>>287351677>Genko but uglieryou fags are attracted to this ?
>>287351677>Power: Minenami editionShe has never done such, it is intriguing.
>>287351972Knowing the lore, Miko will see her more feminine side and see something others don't. and make Momiji go full Makima on him, showing her hatred by stripping him away of the things he has or craves
>>287351972
>>287351972we like reading drama queen please understand
>>287351972you wouldn't get it.
What's that? Some kind of property marker?
>>287349616Funny enough in the first chapter she blushed when she took the leaf out of his hair, when she asked him to take her to the mountain and when Miko took her hand at the end of the chapter. She also asked Miko to leave instead of Roka. Between the two chapters she gives a lot of mixed signals
>>287352660I thought it was a stone shrine.
>>287334441Anybody getting the ick vibes? This constant self-deprecation attitude is kind of disgusting.
>>287336149She is the type to control you by saying what you did wrong with her face. A smile? A stare? Sad but inappropriate puppy dog eyes? Blunt statements and rhetorical questions that you should know the obvious answers to? You are a fool and she is trying very hard to educate you. Now wear this girly chest ribbon with a girly school bag at all times and bend over it’s time for your training…
>>287353917>ickfaggot
>>287354261I don't know. She gives mixed signals between the two chapters. I think whatever she has its personal against the mc
When will Roka bang her?
>>287355017He already has but he kept his eyes closed the whole time
>friend is clearly miserable with this girl>doesn't inquire why>doesn't ask friend if he's ok>goes on and on about muh mountainMiko is a bad friend.
>>287355151He imagined it was Miko the whole time
>>287351256>don't hate meWhat if I already hate her?
>>287355739>hateYou gotta read that again. She's trying to warn you.
>>287355180It's clearly part of the MC's emotional baggage/problems. Look at how he reflexively tries to pressure his friend into staying with her. There's literally no reason to do that, other than him trying to pretend he's not into the girlfriend and trying to avoid actually committing to pursuing her. As well as defaulting to socially tinged excuse (it's good for everyone for you two to be together!)The MC has desires for the girlfriend, but is self conscious and lacking self esteem enough about it to keep trying to tamp down on it even as he's obviously doing things to try and get with her. That paradox is very obvious to his more aware friends.
>>287356463So basically he is a coward who doesn't want to take the risk and instead pretends to be a good friend. He is going to lose both of his friends if keeps doing this
>>287355739>>287356373It says "don't help me", illiterate retards.
>>287357110>He is going to lose both of his friends if keeps doing thisAs far as we are concerned, he's gonna lose his life by the end.
>>287357384Yeah, unclear if it is because of her or because of leaf-chan though
>>287357361What did you think I was correcting the first anon about?
When will the peak become haunted
>>287358062It's haunted already. Miko's dad selling the mountain has unleashed it.
I wonder if she ever even cared about seeing the youtuber. She tried to hurt her leg before they even got to see him.
>>287358243I doubt she actually hurt it, she was testing her power level
>>287358062Trust the plan, ghost loli soon
>>287358243>I wonder if she ever even cared about seeing the youtuber.Vaguely interested at most but her real goal in coming up there was to mess with MC's head.
>>287358303She doesn’t seem like the type to have a brain let alone the skill to play pretend. If one were to peek inside her head you’d probably find nothing but sex anywhere you look.
The MC is kinda of annoying trying to force this mountain issue on the girl who clearly doesn't want be be involved with it even if she's manipulative. I understand he has a crush on her but this isn't the right approach.
>>287358243I think she did since she mentioned being bored.
>>287358557Its a matter of wich one do you trust, gay bro or the stacy
>>287334010How did the mountain end up getting NTR'd too, can't trust anything these days even nature
>>287359072Land is the ultimate NTR of mankind and always has been.
>>287351972Well the main heroine is a piece of shit who hates mountains so this side character must be a million times better, my wife must be able to accept muh mountain in the relationship as well
>>287359276Inb4 she becomes more girly due to Miko's influence, even making him delude she looks like the ghost only to be killed by Momiji or someone under her influence, Makima style
>>287360407At this point Momiji being a good person would be the biggest twist
So far the signs suggest that both the girl and the mountain are more trouble than they're worth, and it would be better to move on from both. I'm betting that Leaf Man is also miserable and he wouldn't be living on the mountain if he had another option.
>>287360407>Inb4 she becomes more slutty due to Miko's influence ftfy
I don't think the tomboy is going to be that important

>>287360514So far, they're all plausibly normal.Mikoma is crushing on Momiji and tries to be helpful and show off., It backfires twice because he didn't read her right (and she's not into him).Roka is dating a girl he doesn't like, so when she wants stuff from him he just thinks it's annoying.Momiji suspects Roka isn't into her and has Mikoma in the friendzone.
>>287361557>(and she's not into him).>has Mikoma in the friendzone.Worse, she's passive-aggressive and holds a passive hatred against him because of a reason.
>>287361865She blushed at him a couple of times in the first chapter, this bitch is bipolar when it comes to Miko
>>287362294This right here. She wants Miko but also wants to hurt him, the classic bipolar bitch combo.

Reading japanese comments, one put that Miko seems an extremely selfish and egocentric and are deeming Momiji's passive-aggressiveness as righteous callouts to that.It would be hilarious if Miko's death is caused by his own arrogance. Maybe the reason Momiji hates him is because Miko's the only one who looks down at her.
>>287370616I don't think he will die, but it looks he will come really close to it. The manga literally opens with Momiji leaves on his face, no way that girl is not connected with it.
