I just read all the translated chapters (I found this gem only a few days ago) and as I see it,
Like a scab that came off too soon? And now the open wound is open to all sorts of "infections"...
My guess for the bad shit is:
Talking about all that "foreign bodies" stuff. Does the chaos also expel bits of reality going the other way?
Finally, that is a pretty well set up tragedy. Been there since the beginning and now we're having the narrative payoff. There are a few more things that I can think off that should be getting a similar treatment soon. We have seen a lot of fucked up stuff happening in this town from even before the event with only the barest of context and background.
If the Suzushiros disapperaring was the way reality had to fix itself (I assume the flayed horse is some kind of reality guardian of sorts) why even weirder stuff started to happen afterwards.
Its like the Suzuhiros were a plug and once removed all kind of foreign bodies started to pour into Soil.
Man, this shit is good.
I think that the plot is becoming clearer and clearer, while things are getting weirder and weirder.
If you read it again, it's probably gonna come to you. I reread the whole thing, and a few days afterwards, Hox started publishing these again. Whew, lucky me!
I'm kinda getting lost now.... There're just a lot of 'Huh?' or 'wtf?' moments now...

Truck- san never tires.
So it's basically a story about meme magick: how the bizarre thoughts and beliefs of the masses eventually take physical shape.
For some reason I thought of this after reading the latest chapter:

Not that it's really relevant to the chapter but the theme of the series is a bit similar to its concept.
HOX many thanks for picking this up! a great rare psicodelic manga, the author probably has had his way with many chemicals , sitill it's a really cool work to enjoy.
all the best Hox, let's see if the soil is unveiled, great work!
Was reading this before on Fox, totally forgot about it.
The author has done some ball tripping, and i am just following him behind.
Happy to see new chapters after 3 years of break! Caught by chance the updates (was not following the manga).
I only found this manga recently and marathoned it in two sittings. Thanks for taking up the scanlating, Hox (if you read this)
Tripping time!
This manga has it all.
That horse has Shrek ears.
What a masterpiece, thanks for scanlating this.
Well, the art is kinda meh, but I'm enjoying the story. It's like a milder version of Junji Ito's work. Clear similarities with Uzumaki.
Damn, this manga easily goes into my top ten. Definitely worth a read.
I think I just soiled myself.
Finally!! There is a GOD!! Just didn't know his name was Hox!... Thanks Hox and Kid Kongo!!!!
Amazing! Thank you for picking this one up!
Guess someone did
And Hox of all people, too!
