This is the best possible backstory reveal that I could have ever hoped for.

Don't be a fool. It's never that simple. You think Hitomi hasn't made allowances in her plans for a past Hitomi attempting to alter the timeline and stop them?

Huh, just realized they removed Nitta's tattoo. I wonder if that's a Japan S&P thing or self-censorship.

Japan is still mired in the tattoo = criminal mentality, the slightest bit of innocuous ink is shocking enough that businesses may turn you away. It's probably a Think of The Children thing, like excising booze, cigarettes, and excess violence, but no idea whether it's based in any kind of broadcast code or just a self-imposed move to make Nitta a little more mainstream friendly

Good adaptation so far and that last chapter was just really on point. A super absurd route to the dark future and great reactions all around (though Nitta and Hitomi's kinda take the cake). Such a fun series.

Watching the anime is a great way to experience the early chapters again. It’s funny to see hitomi get herself into situations with such low stakes and get the whiplash from the past few chapters

So, I've, like, designed a really sweet attack plan that I'm calling Attack Plan Ded Moroz, like "Deadmau5!"

It really is going to turn out that she was born during a trip to Hawaii or something, isn't it? She wasn't a company president in the future, she was the US President in the future.

I mean, when police/whatever talk about someone as 'the president' it's kinda obvious.

They are going to change the constitution to get her in though.

And Nitta's reputation grows, just by being a good dad slash vase otaku.

This manga and Nozaki are my favorite ongoing comedies. Genuine laughs, every chapter.

Nitta understands this is a weird hobby most people aren't into. What a nice monster who lives only for blood, violence, money, and fine vases.

Watch the anime again.

Then, after you are done re-watching the anime, read the manga again.

Rinse and repeat.

Mami's pretty dumb.

I mean, she's in the complete idiot class with Hina, and Hina wasn't awake for a single lesson in middle school.

(Honestly, post time-skip, Hina's seemed passably bright when she applies herself.)

Besides, from her prospective, it's easier to believe in UFOs AND psychics than to think Hina'd scam her.
