your hypothesis couldnt be more wrong. eating, breathing, and reproducing are instincts, but i can choose to hold my breath or fast or be celibate. similarly, people can choose ignore their survival instincts to commit suicide, or to sacrifice themselves for somebody else. sociopathy is also a thing. for sociopaths, abandoning and harming others comes as natural to them as breathing does to everyone else; them being born without the same instincts as everyone else does not prove that those instincts dont exist.
So, guys, is this worth the read? Was the ending decent/satisfying? Pls no spoilers.
It's been quite a ride, boys.
Thanks again to all the people involved in bringing this story to us and to all readers talking about it every week! This might be my favorite manga of all time!
Now onto the ending itself, I really liked it. Turns out one of Mira's theories was indeed the right one (or something like that). Arisu's answer not being shown was strange at first but it totally makes sense since that's what the whole story was all about.
Wow, what a rare good ending lol.
What I hope Arisu said: "I don't care".
Thank you for translating this story.
And with this, Alice in Borderland is finally over. It's been more than two years since i picked this manga. I didn't know how far I would arrive. But we did it
Thanks batoto readers for being with us the entire time. Thanks nfinite for the translations, TheseDays for cleaning the raws and Voyrin for the proofreading. Without you I don't know if i could have done it.
(Btw, we had the enitre volumen 18 translated since the beginning of Febrary)
so the next borderland games, the only one that good is just that 2 psychopath for hearts
so something like purgatory dead roll manga
Nope, if instincts, instincts as the use of the word demands its, where a thing, mothers wouldn't abandon their children, and suicide wouldn't be a thing simple as that.
That's just basic group theory, not fucking instincts! no social theory of human behavior will use instincts to describe group mechanics, INDEPENDENTLY OF HOW SIMPLE THE INTERACTION IS, you will be academically lynched if you are seen using such ignorant language.
Again in the repertory of human innate behavior and abilities there is no such thing as instincts (even the famous flight or fight response is squandered by human culture deterring its characteristic as a proof of human instincts), the best thing we have are reflexes and perceptive theories, pattern recognition, and other extremely basic (albeit necessary and by comparison with things like AI, fairly complex) biological functions, but not instincts, let a lone a survival one that will let you spring back from an altered state of mind caused by drugs.
Well she says she wasn't lying about everything else not related to "answers" and we know that the citizens were responsible for designing games. So I don't see a reason to doubt that she designed the game and kept a dossier on anyone who played her stuff.
Did she really design that one though? It feels like she could've lied to make Arisu lose his shit.
"As a psychiatrist, my remuneration comes from saving a life"
"Seeing someone's life being saved before my eyes makes me as happy as they are"
But, but, but... *cough* Seven Of Hearts *cough*
His first manga was Hyde and Closer which was a bit inferior to Gash Bell.
But this, Alice in Borderland, is by far the best survival game series manga I had read. No one comes close in creating realistic and memorable characters. And he have them by the dozens! Dozens!
What are you talking about? The next chapter will wrap up a bit but it has clarified, pretty much, what Borderlands was.
Finale spoilers
It's a shame the nature of the Borderlands never got explained. I guess it's up to reader interpretation? What do you guys think it is?
"Sanzugawa", the river Sanzu being a sort of Buddhist version of the river Styx. Near-death stories often include dead relatives/friends beckoning from the other side of the river. The individual kanji are 'three', 'road/way', and 'river'.
Quick question: What do the kanji on page 30 of "Joker" mean/say?
I've been lurking here for a while and I just got a Batoto account. I also wanted to say that I've fallen in love with Alice in Borderland and I'd like to offer my most sincere appreciation to Nest Scans for bringing such a high quality, riveting and inspiring manga to an English-speaking audience.
And if for some reason Asou Haro is reading this, I'd like to thank you as well. Too bad more people don't read this series.
I'm actually liking where this is going tbh fam.
Quick, someone travel forward in time to bring us the next chapter! NOW!
WAIT!! WOAH!!!! Mind blown, yet again.
