    I guess prolonged and/or graphic mutilation or torture, right? I don't think there was anything worse than chelsea smile you've seen in the trailer, other than the complete scene itself. One becomes kinda numb to the usual stuff after a while, huh?

    As a fan of the series, that scene is nasty as fuck. Just remembering the scene makes me a little uncomfortable.

    Warau Salesman-- not bad. OP is quite interesting.
    1.st story was kinda weird, but second one made more sense.
    Don't sweat the details!!!

    Random manga recommendation: 1/11

    Genres: Romance, Shounen, Sports, Tragedy

    Personally I'd say Seinen would be a way better fit than Shounen.

    The best way to describe this manga would be a collection of short stories centered around Andou Sora and the people he met through playing football. Some of the chapters managed to be pretty hard on the feels. I'd also have to say that the story isn't linear, which might be slightly confusing at first.

    From the 12 chapters translated so far my favorite ones would be chapter 1 and 12, both had me tearing up, and if you'd read them, you'll understand why. The combination of these 2 chapters is an easy 10/10 for me.

    For the rest I really liked the Shinomori Nina, Koshikawa Rinya, Oda Maaya and Konno Kanetsugu shorts, but there wasn't a single one that I wouldn't call good.

    Do you think Tanya the Evil is a better person at the end of season than she was in episode 1?

    No. I think they purposefully made her "more evil" in episode one with that last scene, but that seemed more like a producer choice to hook people. I would argue that her personality is actually pretty even throughout, although she's definitely getting more ticked at Being X by the end.

    In the beginning of the series Tanya was mean, she sent her two underlings to their death. At the end of the series she was very much trying to protect and save her subordinates. She was also desperate in trying to end the war and prevent more death. In the beginning she hated Being X at the end she was going to shoot the statue but decided against it. I think Tanya gradually progressed to a better person by the end of the series though she isn't perfect.

    She wasn't trying to end the war to prevent more death. She was trying to end the war so her life would become a whole lot easier.

    And the statue scene wasn't supposed to be taken that way, it was just a symbolic shot of her vs Being X. Obviously she wasn't going to actually shoot the statue because what exactly would that accomplish?

    As a business major, I can't wait for the industry to crash and burn, so it can fix itself, come into the modern age, and have actual quality take over.
