Baba Yaga

[risingstar3110]

Spoiler for Size and Front cover:

First, i have to state this manga have some violence screens. I'm not gonna spoil but it's not the type of "rolling head" and "chopped-off limbs" kind of violence.

Read this manga give me the same feeling of back when i watch Higurashi. Haven't read the ending yet(only read up to ch3), but a nice wrap up one will immediately make it a masterpiece. (IMO) The art is super nice also, I really like it. The story is a bit confusing at the start. But as you follow the storyline, then reread, everything seems to connect nicely. So many things left unknown through

The characters are quite unique but I'm not gonna spoil more than that

Finally:

Spoiler for Ch 3:

I never thought that a yandere character can ever be one of my favourite. But the author was success got me hooked with Inumaru's trait.

No one interested?

Oh well, i admitted i put up a too thick spoiler-proof barrier. Let me introduce the two major characters (i think) in this manga so far then:


Inumaru

Here is our little Inumaru roughly 10 years ago (she didn't change much through) . She would never lie, and she is the stereotyped sweet, innocent girl who keeps getting bullied on.

Spoiler for Ch 3 don't click cause it spoil quite a lot of Ch 3:

...however she has a strange ritual of pile up dead ants or toys as sacrifice to wish for something she want or pray for the well being of her best friend... Btw she is also a crybaby, a stalker, and an insane yandere character on top of that. Cool eh?

Mizorogi

She is Satoshi Hojo of Baba Yaga Inumaru's best friend. She is quite cool, friendly and tomboyish. Unfortunately (or fortunately...?) this is not a romance manga.... She good at handling knife for kitchen and have strange diet as sometime she skip breakfast but have quite big meal later on

I'm liking what I've read of it so far. It's a nice little dark themed manga with nice art.

It is difficult to keep track of characters though. If you can have more bios for other characters, it will be awesome.

Spoiler:

Especially the one who witnessed the violence/rape scene in the camp in the years before.

Baba Yaga is a child eating hag from some european lore. Can i assume she's in this?

Akko? She is just too normal to be mentioned

Spoiler for Akko , up to Ch 3:

As she is a girl who was bulled when was small, but after being motivated by an admirable female, end up to be a bully instead. It's nromal in both anime and in RL to have such character ^^

Ch 4 is out. I love how every chapter of this manga slowly unfold the story.

Spoiler for Ch 4:

Inumaru is just too adorable. The only yandere character that i really like, even when sometime it's hard to admit it......

Wow, what i thought is right. It was not Inumaru's doing. I even guessed right the actual meaning of Inumaru's ritual, even be4 reading Ch 4.
It feels good when you can analyze a character, make a guess, then later chapter prove what you thought is right


But yeah, it's suck to be a yandere when you are scared of blood ;___;

I feel sorry for Inumaru, such a sweet girl

[Diveman]

I'm pretty confused about the story so far

Spoiler for ...:

specially about the Glasses guy, I don't know what he wants to do or why is he friends with the other dude from the camp.

Also, the girls that was frequently bullied and beaten by glasses guy friend, is she supposed to be the Baba Yaga?

[risingstar3110]

Almost 4 years on and still no new translated chapters T__T

On your spoiler, They are friends since childhood, aren't they? And i thought the identity of Baba Yaga has already been clear. It just the impact of that incident and the culprit
