@iiyaya: hmm...an editor doesn't have to be fluent in english...I mean he only have to clean and typeset. It is proofreader's job to correct the grammar and mistakes.

Think Misaki lied to Sakakibara?

It might just be me, but does any one else think this reminiscent of Kuroshitsuji (some may know it as Black Butler)? Same dark auora and kid w/ an eyepatch, except it's on the left side (Ciel's is on the right).

@Jack Ryder @Holcrum I was thinking the same thing. What's really unsettling is that they claim to have two proofreaders and a quality checker... Along with the editor you'd expect the grammar to suffer less after being read by four people.

@Holcrum I agree. It's not just some spelling errors. The grammar is atrocious. I can't even make out what they're saying half the time.

I love the series but it seems like the translation quality has gone down recently. I mean thank you for the translating it at all but it's just something I noticed.

Crap.

And Through The Looking Glass We See Shes Painfully Returned

But Now Off With Her Head I Fear Is Everyone's Concern

Akazawa Akazawa Akazawa!!

yeah i can't get enough of her

Cute Akazawa!

The aunt is more sexier in the manga huh.

hmm did i confuss this with other manga?? it is very similar with this one but kinda focus on dolls

i now feel like this is the manga ver. of the sixth sense, so technically all im sayin is that, the main character is the <another one>

I didn't watch the anime, but IMO the reason why the misfortunes continue is precisely because they still continue the sacrificial ritual of a non-existent one.

I was my class's non-existent one but for other reasons for a few years. This reminded me of all the times I cursed the class. If I were some undead spirit plaguing it, I'd relate to the non-existant one and curse it more. -shrugs-

it seem both the character and plot is totally different from the anime

i don't see any spoiler at alll beside some deeping meaning of what thwe manga is based in .... that's like ... epilogue.... not spoiler at all

Just a quick question - people kept referring to the 1997 incident. I read the article in wikipedia, but reading a few chapters into the story they don't have anything in relation.
When they said 'based on', what do they mean? The actual situation, or the concept of alienation?
The 'A guide to understand the story' actually made me more lost.

The spoilers presented here don't ruin the story, especially with the recent updates. The quote that gremar listed doesn't really make sense of the manga it just helps explain where the premise of the story came from. More recent updates show that this isn't about primarily bullying but is simply a convoluted mystery manga that includes bullying. That and its damn awesome.

Yeah. I tried reading it, but I gad already pretty much figured out most of the stuff thanks to the comments, which made this a boring read. I don't see why people keep posting spoilers here, when there's a forum for just that.

For some reason, I kept thinking about The Brown Eye, Blue Eye experiement when I read this. Even though it barely has.. anything to do with it.

@Vay.... trust me ... if u stupid like me ....... you won't even understand much even if u look at the spoiler and the "guide to understand ...." forum topic

Thanks for posting spoilers here. Now I don't have to read this manga at all. It's cool.

ill just wait till the anime comes and watch it.

i feel sad for the nurse.

Mangas like this one where you have to read and re-read it to understand it are quite interesting, but also quite taxing on the senses. Although I am not superstitious and I have no connection to black magic or witchcraft(my family does), I wanted to understand the references in the story. It makes use of real-life incidents, superstition and witchcraft to enhance the story. It's not really weird, but a depiction of emotions and deep hatred stemming from bullying(in all forms). I had to research the name "Sakakiba" to derive where the real-life incident occurred(hint: Sakakibara Seito - Kobe, between March and May 1997), this incident shook the country. This quote, from the incident, should make sense of this manga for you guys "compulsory education that formed me, an invisible person".

confusing is all i can say
