Description: | Enrolled in a certain elementary school is an unpleasant 11-year-old boy with a highly cynical outlook on society. Believing that the world lacks individuality, he wants nothing more than to be unique and remembered. The boy seemingly gets the chance to leave his name in history when he becomes the first to be diagnosed with a new incurable disease that is estimated to kill him by the age of 12. Just as he is rejoicing about his newfound individuality, he meets a cheerful, prodigious girl who has the same disease—and is nearing her 12th birthday. As the boy realizes that he won't be the first to die from the disease and therefore won't be remembered, he forms a twisted plan: kill the girl before her illness does. |

Unnamed disease, first case guy encountered, they know everyone dies before they hit 12 (as if that mattered to a disease...), has no cure but they can diagnose it super fast like that?
Yeah, this is why Shokugeki no Souma has a chef assisting the writer... It's best not to write a plot-hole INTO the premise of the manga.
The disease is pretty stupid but so far the characters are kind of interesting. So long as it doesn't bog down in a billion rambling words per page like Medaka Box I guess I'll give it a chance.
fake spoiler, this is all taking place on the moon... in a different dimension!
That's the kind of crazy I feel this will escalate to.
The MC is edge incarnate
I bet he listen to this everyday https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gd9OhYroLN0
Let's hope the twist ending isn't that the doctor was planning on naming it after the first of the kids who already died of it and was just messing with the MC.
...and frankly, Kumogawa was never murderous. Twisted as hell, yes, but not murderous.
at first i thought this is kumagawa : the origin :v
Thats not how diseases are named.
Disease are not named after the first person to die of it. They're (usually) named after "patient zero"; the first known case of the disease. And even thats not necessarily true: Asperger syndrome was named after the researcher and Chickenpox is so old no one even knows the origin. And then you have SUPER exceptions like AIDS and HIV which were renamed because people calling it the 'gay disease' wouldn't believe doctors when were told that they had contracted it.
Interesting that they didnt name any of the characters.
He mentions this here too. I think it'll come up later.
if Medaka's box is not heating your brain enough then this one might be the one for you
Um... Shouldn't the disease already have a name? You know... For the first person that already died from the disease.
If a doctor tells you "you won't live past 12," there needs to be some basis on which they can measure that value, many in fact. So this disease should have killed quite a few people in order for any doctor to make such a bold prediction.
oooh medaka box artist... might follow
"What the fuck did I just read?"
NisiOisin and Akatsuki Akira dream team?
Instafollow. God bless you CXC. Doing god's work.
