(L) Spirit Circle

[Xical]

From Mizukami Satoshi, creator of The Lucifer and biscuit hammer, Sengoku Youko and more, come this manga: スピリットサークル -魂環- Spirit Circle.
Summary:

Fuuta Okeya is a normal 14-year-old boy, except for the fact that he has the ability to see ghosts. A cute girl transfers into his class one day, but acts particularly aggressive towards him. This girl called Kouko Ishigami is followed around by a ghost called East. Fuuta tries to get along with her but ends up failing after she sees the birthmark he usually keeps covered. She then declares him as her enemy, his birthmark as a cursed brand and claims they have a long history, while talking about reincarnation. Who is this girl and how are they connected?

Somehow it starts like a typical shounen, but as it unfold you can feel how much Mizukami as matured in his storytelling, with short arcs for the past lifes, complex relations between characters and hints of things to come in every chapter, it is a step ahead of TLaBH.

And now chapter 28 is out in crunchyroll.
It´s sad to see another fight between those two, but is even more sad they think that feel the more natural relationship for them, now lets hope robocat can save the day.

Chapter 29 is out. I wonder why Rune is freaking out over the next life. Is Fuuta's rushing worrying her? or is it just something she doesn't want him to see?

[ellifeedn]

I finished catching up and I like this series.

[XFire]

Oh look, the master of heart break and feels makes a mind-fuck series. How could this possibly go wrong?


*Begins squeeing like a ten-year old girl at a JB concert*

[ellifeedn]

Oh man, things get intense in chapter 37.

[XFire]

.............Fortuna is a dick.

[ellifeedn]

So if I understand right,

Spoiler:

Fortuna's time is in the future of Lafalle's time?

Are you talking about

Spoiler for :

The crater he saw? I kind of doubt it, he said the other lives were all different possibilities and points in space-time. It's possible, but I was inclined to think they were all separate timelines.

Spoiler:

Then what about the current Japan era and the older Japan era being in the same timeline?

[Kurohane]

I just caught up. Looks like Fortuna's arc will wrap up next chapter.

It looks like Fortuna realized how messed up he's become, but the reason we even have a plot is because of him. I imagine this leads him to do something even more crazy. The aliens talked about a planet class void.

[ellifeedn]

Chapters 39 and 40... holy cow.

[Kurohane]

Well, as the aliens foresaw, Fuuta's body just got hijacked by Fortuna.

[Kurohane]

Fuuta is getting under Fortuna's skin. I like it!

[ellifeedn]

I wonder how they will resolve this. Will Fuuta use the Spirit Circle to somehow save his sibling and mother?

New chapter:

Spoiler:

Fortuna in Fuuta's body goes to face Koko, but before that, he searches the internet! We learn more about reincarnation, and how souls are able to choose non-linear times to reincarnate from him. In addition, sucks for Lafalle, but the decreasing population wasn't because of the towers holding the non-dead, but souls choosing not to reincarnate in that time.

The face off begins with Koko having the upper hand due to Fortuna not accounting that he's using Fuuta's body that's not particularly athletic. Also, the rest of Fuuta's past lives are watching this along with him, making for some funny moments. Near the end, we get the call from Fuuta's dad... only to inform that the birth was a success and it's twins to both Fuuta and Fortuna's shock!

[ellifeedn]

Well, that was unexpected.

[ReddyRedWolf]

For a self proclaimed genius Fortuna is dumb. It's a multiverse the future he saw s not necessarily the one in the universe he is in.

[ellifeedn]

Chapter 44 was sad.

[Insaint]

While it was slightly sad and all, but man they pretty much ensured a guaranteed ship sailing!
