new chainsaw is a release of apprehension. we know that this is a manga where we cant have nice things, yet after weeks of slow progression, we (read: me) objectively know that nothing good will come, but hope weeds itself in. and predictably, after weeks of waiting for a deeper connection to be made between our main characters, weeks of yearning for something good to take place, for our characters to not be alone, even for a moment. after all that. yoru snaps us back into the story’s focus and yanks that hope away, seconds after it manifests.
