[punpun]
trying to wrap my head around the main quirk of the series

that being:

why does punpun look like that

within the story's world, punpun seems to be a perfectly ordinary human boy

what does Punpun's weirdo appearance bring to the story

I don't know yet

maybe I will later

maybe I won't

I know what song this is

or well, I did the first time it was used

before this page that just names the song

i would love to give punpun a read one day but i've read some of the author's shorter stories and it's sort of like. the same effect jacob geller's content has on me. enjoyable in very small doses, depressing in anything bigger than that

are you enjoying it so far? '-'a

i wonder where the trope of "tsubasa wo kudasai, specifically, laid over a scene that is fucked up and/or generally unsettling" comes from

I finished volume 1

which I feel like has been insufficient to decide if I like it or not

/nods

the impression I get from Inio Asano's work is oh god. oh fuck.

It's symbolic in the grander scope of the story.

yeah it's symbolic. you'll get a feel for it as you keep reading

imo the series takes a while to hit its stride

the question was rhetorical yeah

I'm sure I'll understand it later
