Give me some recommendations of manga or anime that will hurt my fucking feelings.

I have almost all of Junji ito, seen perfect blue, didn’t love orochi, and I’ve been wanting more psychological horror lately. Give me something depressing and terrifying to fill the void of binging all of berserk in 2 days and realizing it’s not done.

I’m editing it as I read and ranking by how gutted I am.

Tried Oyasami Punpun first it was not that sad or scary.

Tacomis first sin was pretty depressing, the beginning was really good.

Ok ok Blood on the Tracks hurt my feelings, the ending hit home. Thank you all.

Homonculous was pretty rough.

No longer human drained my soul, the manga was better than the original book. Both were great,

Who’s sick of seeing “Scar kill a chimera” memes, tattoos, jokes, merch and anything else that makes the scene lose its emotional value.

Sorry in advance for somewhat contributing to the flow of episode 4 discourse.

I’m making this post after seeing 3 different Chimera posts today.

This scene wrecked me the first time I saw it, I was crying with snot coming out my nose and had to put on something lighter before I came back to the show. Now nothing.

I see her pop up on this sub and instagram constantly. Several times a week I see something about how it’s the “saddest thing ever” but every time I see it I become more desensitized to it. The memes have become more boring than “why the chicken crossed the road” jokes because I’ve seen more jokes about her than heard that one.

Now a scene that fucked me up is boring and im skipping it so I can move on to the next episode when I used to skip it because it’s so hard to watch.

I still watch the show once or twice a year and the rest of the sad scenes call at least one tear to my face but that one is watered down by the constant jokes about it.

If anyone starts making Winry with a gun on scar or Maes Hughes’ funeral shirts I’ll have nothing left. Those scenes still mess me up.

I’m looking for cursed books.

I have ptsd radio and most junji books but I’m trying to have a “cursed “ book collection. Books that make you feel like they are stealing your soul or make you feel like you’re losing your mind. I have been getting more and more into horror, shows and tv suggestions are cool too.

I’m looking for other series that mess with your head.

My favorite by far is no longer human.

The story is so well written, the art isn’t like what it usually is but the depth of writing I feel so deeply. One in like 3 books I’ll get a little shiver but I couldn’t put down no longer human.

Who’s got a collection to rival this?

Each of the 6 books of bill except the green sealed one is signed. I have almost all the supporting books. And that journal in the center is the signed black light edition, you can see the included $-12 bill, the official blacklight, the postcard, and letter from the finale.

Once I get the art book I’ll finally have them all.

I’m in AA and I’m using the truth as my higher power.

I’m your typical Reddit Athiest and it’s hard to stay true to my beliefs in a system that forces you to admit there is something more powerful than yourself but it is heavily influenced by the Christian god, especially in the southern US. My sponsor told me not to pick some silly cartoon specifically and me being a little rascal chose The Truth. He told me to write one page about my higher powers attributes attitudes and behavior, this is an approximate retelling of it.

99.9999999% of the universe is just molecules and lifeless planets. I asked how can I ask mars for the ability not to drink. But by adding in humans to the equation there are parts of the universe I can ask for help. Other people. By giving up my belief I can do it all myself and asking for help I sold my door for human connection.

Truth: Hello
Ed: Who are you?
Truth: oh I’m so glad you asked. I, called by many names; I’m the world, I’m the universe, I’m god, I am truth, I am all, and I am also you.

The truth is indifferent to most things on earth and really only exists when someone pushes too far into his realm of creation. There were two times the truth really showed any emotion. The first when someone tried to become or control god but couldn’t handle it and was sent to a hall “reserved only for the boastful”. The second time was when the main character gave up his alchemy, his ability to shape the world as he saw fit, to be reduced to “just a human” he replied “All I’ve ever been was a human” in giving up his alchemy he lost his ego for love. This time the truth laughs and applauds him for his decision.

He said “well damn I’m gonna watch my first anime since Aeon Flux” that’s all you need to it.

I just wanted to share. If anyone can guess every reference I’ll give you 10 upvotes on posts or comments you have made.

“People just need to talk to each other” THEY ARE HALLUCINATING HORRIBLE THINGS AND WOULD SOUND INSANE!

The amount of problems that would be solved by communication is a lot but the problems that would arise from that would be pretty bad.

Anyone mentioning a boy in white clothing would sound crazy or they would think it’s one of the smiling demons at night. They may even ignore what he’s trying to do or help them with.

A lot of the info that would be helpful is incredibly painful for the person who knows it. The 3 who got tortured in the cave won’t really even talk about it to the others who went through it with them. For victor the clues are remembering his mom being ripped apart.

Boyd probably wouldn’t be the sheriff and the town would fall to shit if he told people about the music box and the cave from the tree.

Despite there being demons at night that are warded off by talismans, the townspeople are relatively close minded. They still don’t believe their eyes after tears of insane shit happing to them and those around them.

The townspeople don’t trust each other that well and it’s incredibly high tension across the board. Bringing up creepy dreams or hallucinations every time would be a long list of info that isn’t helpful.

We the viewer know the full picture and we don’t even know what’s going on. If certain characters shared it would probably be helpful but a lot would cause panic, fear, or problems.

If I saw blood dripping down dismembered bodies on a tree I wouldn’t bring it up at lunch on the off chance it’s a clue. I’m keeping it to myself thinking my brain has finally broken under the stress. Even in a town full of magic curses and nightmare people it’s more likely to have a psychotic break than a divine premonition.

I already finished the sanctum showdown surge and I’m retreating for anyone chill.

All you have to do is dap me up with the emote and I’ll say I’m losing and retreat.

I bought all the packs and cards I wanted, Ive gotten the highest rewards. Idk it’s just really easy because so many people are just using their standard deck and not making one for it. I’ve got like 16 scrolls left and all I’m doing is getting some banners but I don’t like most of them.

Shuri, vision, and Arnom Zola are carrying me to the sorcerer supreme.

Be nice and emote with people more, they may bless you a little.
