Oh my gosh, Karen is one of the most hilarious characters yet! Being an angel, she's the epitome of "lawful good stupid". I also loved Akane in the background being used for sight gags.



Karen's halo is a light bulb :lol:

Also - they got "cries when exposed to garlic" wrong. They rendered it as "Onions" when even the images clearly depict garlic!!

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.
Not to mention the fact that everyone cries when exposed to onions. Garlics, on the other hand, are more of a vampire thing.

Loving the new character. Hope we see more of her.

So what're we gonna have next? Who's the next cute+dumb girl? We gotta complete our Halloween set!

We've already got a time traveler, an alien, a vampire, a werewolf, an angel, a demon, a childhood friend possessed by a spirit...

My bet is on "zombie" or "witch".

That was the last chapter in volume seven. So there's at least 18 chapters untranslated.

I'm on vacation in Okinawa right now, and when I went into the convenience store to buy some stuff I found a copy of volume 9 on a shelf. I'd put a picture here but my phone won't let me take any until I let it charge some more.

Reading it right now, and dang, I need some context from Volume 8.

There's only one thing in the mountains that leaves a track like this. The creature of legend that roams the Timberline. My people named him Sasquatch. You call him... Bigfoot.
As a side note, someone's started translation work on one of the author's other series, Sakura Discord, which so far seems to be a much more serious sports-thing- closer to the art style of the first chapter of Truthism. But well, that could change, and there are certainly hints of the goofy reaction faces.
