This is an idea that occurred to me while reflecting on the work after reading chapters 52 and 53 of the manga, along with reviewing the beginning of the story with the release of the anime. Well, you know that during the first half of the story we see how Yuru has to adapt to the fact that everything he believed was false. This supposedly reaches a key point with Danji's return, revealing himself as a Tsugai, but even so, I feel that it's not the end of it. Recently, Dr. Sakurazawa made a comment about using Yuru's "seal," which Gabby confronted her about it. in chapter 53, Yuru admits that he still doesn't trust the Kagemori clan, and that's when I remembered that Yuru only interacts with them for his own benefit and his search for his parents. I started to realize that Yuru still doesn't know who to trust and that he barely trusts Asa. Watching the anime, I remembered that Yuru used to be kind sweet with the fake Asa, while with our real Asa, he still struggles to show affection (like what happens when she captures Ivan). Now, here comes the mental rambling that comes from the hyperfocus I had on this work by Arakawa.

Yuru's mental breakdown:my point is that I honestly feel Yuru's stress has been somewhat sidelined since he fell ill danji appeared as a tsugai, but we know he's still suspicious of everyone. From a more realistic perspective, Yuru genuinely doesn't know who to trust. He can't trust Higashi Village, his home, and he's unsure whether to fully trust Dera and Hana because of their connections to the higashi village. He mentioned not trusting the Kagemori clan, and it's obvious that Akio's betrayal only made him more distrustful of the clan. To top it all off, Yuru can't even trust his instincts. He claimed he could tell if someone wanted him dead just by looking at their face, but he recently learned that he lived surrounded by those who wanted him dead, His best friend and his "sister" turned out to be Tsugai who knew he should die and never told him anything. Furthermore, learning that his parents abandoned him alone must have reopen a wound in his heart that he thought was healed.

Anyone would stop trusting someone after that, and I feel like Yuru only trusts Asa because she's his sister and because he desperately needs someone to trust... but what would happen if Yuru believed she was going to betray him too? It's silly, and it's similar to an idea Arakawa already used in FMA, but imagine what would happen to Yuru, a powerful hunter, basically a human weapon, if he were consumed by paranoia and anxiety, whether due to a misunderstanding or deceptions from the Nishino village thought Asa betrayed him too? What would he do in that case? How would they reason with him? I feel like it would be interesting to see that. What do you think?

I played the game when it came out; I remember playing until Aizawa was added to the game. The thing is, due to a mix of factors, my friends stopped playing, and honestly, I wasn't very good at it, so I stopped playing. But I recently decided to return to the game on the Switch. I just finished my first match with my new account and well, it was all bots.

So now I ask do the game have casual players or only competitive? is it still alive and fun? How does gacha work? Because I remember that he was one of those that only benefits you at the beginning and then it was impossible to get anything out of it (at least when the game came out lol) and above all, Nagant is a good character?

With the anime's release, I decided to finish reading the 13 chapters of the manga I was missing. The problem is that my source only has up to chapter 52, and I haven't found chapter 53, which is supposed to have already been released. I usually read in Spanish but I don't mind if it's in English But if you could recommend a website to read the manga when new chapters are released, I would appreciate it. Unfortunately, I don't have the resources to subscribe to the Squareenix platform.

Here's my proposal if Sony doesn't do anything with the IP by the end of 2026 I suggest that all members of this fandom create our own continuation of the story Whether it's a fangame or maybe a comic, create something to fill that void in our hearts.

(you can ignore this if you want, it's just a silly proposal)

Well, honestly, I'm making this post because I recently started university, I've never had a partner, and in a conversation with a friend I had at university about our past experiences with relationships... I started wondering if my friends are being honest about who I am or if they're withholding information about why I keep getting rejected.

To recap, I have never had a girlfriend So I want honest advice. It all started when I was 13. I was coming out of the pandemic after two years of lockdown. I fell in love with the first woman I saw, a rather cruel classmate who only spoke to me when she needed help. I spent an entire summer in love with her, but she rejected me at the start of the school year... Later I found out that she was talking badly about me behind my back, even to who used to be my best friend...

The second girl was a childhood friend with whom I became closer, but she friendzoned me. In the following year, 2023, I didn't have many romantic experiences, just a few attempts at flirting that were immediately rejected. But in 2024, I enrolled in a drama academy. There, I fell in love with a classmate. I spent a whole year talking to her, becoming friends, playing together, and going to the movies to see Inside Out 2. And through it all, with the help of my best friend, I tried to overcome my shyness to be closer to her. At the end of that year, I confessed my feelings for her. She ghosted me. I reflected a lot and understood that it was for the best that she didn't like me, and if my advances made her uncomfortable, it was better to walk away. It was unfair to get angry because she didn't love me back, so I let her go. Then, in 2025, something happened that I'm not proud of. I met a girl online who seemed to be flirting with me. After having a bad time with my friends, I ended up asking her to be something more. She said no (later I found out she had a boyfriend, lol). That's when I was advised to try flirting with new people. I wanted to, but whoever accepted was only planning to use me to make their ex jealous. But they regretted it and stopped talking to me. Finally, I started talking to a bisexual girl I had met during an art workshop. And this was the most confusing part? She would hold my hand, hug me, give me affectionate nicknames, send me messages saying "I love you," send me pictures of cats together saying "us"... We used to spend recess hugging and exchanging gifts... My sketchbook is full of hearts and ideas she left. I made two portraits of her, one digital as a gift and another in pencil that I drew on the back of a love letter I gave her... It turns out that during the last few months she got to know herself better and accepted that she was a lesbian, not bisexual... I accepted it as best I could; after all, if she doesn't like men, it was silly to be offended or angry with her... And we're still friends, although she unconsciously rubbed salt in the wound twice. The first time was when she said that after reading my letter, she had to wait for her partner to be someone like me... but not me... and then by wishing me a happy Friendship Day on Valentine's Day... And well, back to the present, I'm still single and Honestly, the accumulation of rejections makes me fear that maybe I did something wrong... I hope it's just my insecurity talking. And I dont know Sometimes I fear that perhaps my emotions don't come from the right place. When I fall in love, I always try to love in the most respectful way possible, to be good and be there... but lately, after so much rejection, I've started to doubt if I can be loved, and if wanting to love and be loved in return is selfish... Edit: people around me say that I am usually rejected because try too hard to be a good friend...
