HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE DEAD, MOTHERFUCKER?

Bread Set Jettison posted:

Maybe she’ll make a powerful aquarium spear and feel extremely guilty about all the dead fish

She’s overdue for a long lasting weapon, and an infinite amount of compressed concrete, glass and fish guts has to be durable.

I dunno, its pretty fitting for Wars weapons to be constantly destroyed and requiring new crafting. Unlike Control, which just uses stuff forever, War destroys everything.

Awww, Denji just wants to send his friend/little sister to College <3

AWWW, Asa reminds him of Power <3 <3

Oh, he gave up his little sisters college fund for a vague promise to do something with Asa... My sweet, precious boy will never change <3 <3 <3

That something will be "Work your rear end off to give me a bunch of money to send my little sister to college", Denji is smart now

i figured there was no way denji could have burned through aki's inheritance to the point where he'd need to scrimp like this, his standards for living are too low to get really spendy and he'd tune out of any pyramid schemes before you got halfway through the pitch

finding out that Denji is trying to be a responsible older sibling / friend is adorable. missing out on his internal dialog really is changing the dynamic of the manga

he clearly still has personal motivations; so we're not above persuasion tho. Asa is smart enough to pick up on that and I'm proud of her. She's growing as a person

i hope denji & asa become pals for real now but asa still manages to avoid finding out that he's chainsaw man while he realises that she has some weird devil stuff going on but doesn't really care if she's not causing problems.

Seven dogs, a cat, and a kinda sister kinda friend kinda ???. That's not cheap, even if Denji's got a decent amount of money to start with from Aki's inheritance and his own Devil Hunter salary.

my posts are as bad the Current Releases review of Gone Girl

its also entirely possible that denji has enough money to not have to live like a penny pinching freak, he just does anyway because he saw one of those listicles about how THIS PERSON RETIRED BY THE AGE OF 25 and thinks he can pull that poo poo off by not spending any money, ever

idk how much university in japan actually costs or anything but it's very possible denji just thinks "university is expensive" and hasn't actually figured out how affordable it is for him to pay for nayuta as-is

Worth noting that with all the weird bullshit about the setting like the soviet union still being intact and no nukes (and thus probably no nuclear power) the cost of poo poo like aquariums and college could be completely different from reality, because there's no way to us to know enough to think about it

Of course Fujimoto could also just not give a poo poo.

If you must blink, do it now.
I also wonder if Denji just can't conceive of anything he'd want to buy for himself beyond basic amenities, and he's "Too stupid" for anything more ambitious than the life he already leads, so of course it's all for Nayuta's sake, what else does he have to live for?

Which is (comically, but also heartbreakingly) why it's so easy for him to just give it all to Asa in exchange for the nebulous promise of affection.

I think he’s also ok with giving Asa the cash because he’s trusting she does have a plan and it’s not just he wants girls to like him.

Also why doesn’t Asa eat fish

It's because of Bucky. When she mentioned that she can't eat the whole fish "because they look too much like dead animals" she thinks of Bucky, I think. Or even if there's not direct evidence, it's almost certainly Bucky.

Now that Yoru has been whisk away, Asa is acting relatively similar to Yoru who acts fairly similar to Power in the first place.

Accurate: manga captures the googly-eyed nosy manic energy of huskies

Inaccurate: they should be howling several times a minute

Lmao, Asa finally makes some progress with Denji and he immediately puts her in the Powerzone after she gets too swelled a head. At least she's trying not to turn him into a Denjitte now, though only time will tell if this solution works.

TBF, the Powerzone is a pretty good zone to be in with Denji.

Really enjoyed how impractical Bomb Devil’s costume was, and how she didn’t give a gently caress and her dynamite apron was just flopping everywhere like she was too powerful to let an impractical costume be a hindrance to her fighting

Soviet Union disbanded Dec 1991 so it would be neat to see how that plays out differently in this world
