Most of the reason this chapter enraged me so much (especially since I already knew it was coming) is because I know that in the end Yukariko will be forgiven and receive no punishment. We have enough of that BS in real life...don't need it in my manga too >_> |

And as Randrak said, the worst part is there is literally nothing the story can do about it now. 'Revenge' would go against the whole point of the story. So basically Yukariko gets off scot free. That's the part which burns.

At this point of the game/story revenge is always pointless and more self-destructive than constructive...
The end never justify the mean... never... And the process is more important than the product But yeah Yukariko getting off scot free with all this will really burns... Karma Houdini in a way or two just rub us the wrong way... unless there will be an excessive drama/exchange between the sinner (Yukariko) and the victim (Yuuko) @ellifeedn If the police were to find it out then things will likely blow out of proportion with media following, buzzing and snooping around for scoop... after all that form of scandal is just too good to let go... But the shadow Yuuko... is it really just a manifestation of Yuuko's negative emotion or it is in a way a fusion of both Yuuko negative emotion (probably 30%) and Yukariko's guilt (70%) Last edited by NeutralZero; 2013-03-03 at 17:51.

Yukariko is still alive...
The only remaining guilty party that tries hard to cover everything by bringing down the old school building... Those/some that have died have the decency to left an epitaph depicting their sins... |

In 60 years has Yukariko done anything to seek forgiveness? From what we're shown, she had a pretty good life, a house, a school headmistress, at least a child (although presumed deceased) and a grandchild. Knowing where the body of the sister she condemned to death in vain was, did she ever moved it to her family grave? (no) Unless we are later shown solid proof of her regret and her attempts to atone I'm afraid she's gonna be a hate figure.
It would be poetic justice if she dies and is condemned to be a ghost because of her regret... |

Yukariko may have lived a longer life and had a family but she is never happy since no matter what she does, her sister's spirit is never in peace as she remains on Earth, which hurts Yukariko. That is Yukariko punishment, forever seeing the ghost of her sister hating her as a constant reminder of the sins she had committed. It's seems to me everyone has different opinions on what Yukariko did on whether she was evil or misguided, already punished or not punished, should be forgiven or not, etc Whatever the reason, i suggest we should all refrain from talking about Yukariko for now until the next chapter is out or we might end up bringing in unwanted topics into this thread.

but... Quote:
Not what she had done... so far or for the past XX years... But if you or others is in her position, what's the very first logical manner to do to ease the spirits of the dead? In different anime, media or culture is/are concern, isn't having a proper burial for the diseased the first thing they usually do? that or having put talisman unto the area where the dead lays... Then follows the prayer for the dead Christians do... Then there's the mahjong thing shown in xxxholic based on some Chinese belief and such... to ease the soul/grievance of the dead... If by chance it was true that she is trying to make amends, how come one of the most basic practice wasn't / hasn't been done so far? And compare to that method, how come she prefer to decimate the whole building itself? which is well if all things put into an account is more and much of a hassle thing to do.... Is she 100%trying to make amend or 70% trying to cover things up to foolishly ease her guilt and satisfy her ego with 30% amendment? Current question for the current chapter that may be answered in the next 2 or more chapter... Last edited by NeutralZero; 2013-03-04 at 10:05. |

No...wait...nope, no it isn't. Man...at least the anime version wasn't this rage inducing or controversial as all those to blame eventually got killed off by the plague. |

Now that the two Yuukos are one again, I wonder what will happen to her personality. Is the whimsical Yuuko who loves Teiichi gone for good and replaced with a more serious Yuuko? Would she ever forgive Yukariko?
Time to wait another month to find out. |
