who is cheating, mother who is sliding to the crazy side it doesn't even matter what classification of disease and a boy who lives with it since he has no choice (Reference to a holes yes he has many choices, i know that but i'm talking about an average kid who doesn't have any trades and is of average intelligence (straight A's in school don't count )). you're interested in my reasoning for these points, then this is where I'll talk in more detail about them. The story is about a young boy named Seiichi Osabe, whose mother seems to be lovely from the outside and a bit weird. She is overprotective of his son but has some issues, some gravely terrible issues of her own. I also found the ending of the story to be unsatisfying. It felt like the story was building up to something big, but it never really delivered.

Stepford Smiler: The majority of the smiles in this manga are creepy, but Seiko wins first prize as she smiles throughout all the horror. Parental Incest: Downplayed, but not in a way that detracts at all from the horror of the situation. While it's unclear whether her intentions are sexual, Seiko does seem to have a confused romantic interest in her son, kissing him on the lips twice over the course of the series and becoming horrified when she discovers a girl his age has a crush on him. She tends to delusionally view Seiichi as a small child just as much as she views him as a lover, however, so ultimately her intentions are confusing. Character development....guys and gals don't get me started here...please just don't in short yes there is one and it feels alive. Character personality is..ALIVE, you can see messed up people here, normal life coercing with life behind the closed doors (when family acts normal but behind the closed doors we see real s& Time Skip: Between vols. 12 and 13, there's a 20-year gap. Seiichi, after leaving juvenile detention, moved to Tokyo and works a menial line job at a bakery, basically just existing and not really living.Bob Dylan — Matt Damsker interview. 1978. Hotel room. 1 PM in afternoon before the start of the tour , retrieved May 24, 2022 Empty Shell: The trauma of the events of 1994 has left Seichi as one by 2017, admitting to a hallucination of the long-dead Shigeru that he died inside a long time ago and is just waiting for his body to die as well. ANYWAY, Seiichi's having a hallucination which was coincidentally triggered by Shigeru talking about Seiichi's mom, and in this hallucination, Seiichi kills his younger self by pushing him off a cliff like his mom did to him all those years ago, but in real life it was Shigeru that was coincidentally lined up with young-Seiichi, and Seiichi ends up pushing Shigeru for real, which then leads to Seiichi getting arrested. Most of these events are straight up impossible, and so many of these factors have astronomically low chances of occurring on their own, let alone all at once. The author clearly had this intense urge to create a scenario where Seiichi would push Shigeru, to the point where he was willing to sacrifice realism and coherency to get it to happen. This is the mountain of contrivances and coincidences that acts as the foundation that the second half of the story is built on...YIKES Seiko tossing her own nephew off the cliff, before turning around with a pleased smile on her face, as if to say "I did this for you".

Jizzed in My Pants: When Fukiishi kisses Seichii, Seichii wakes up to find "stuff" in his pants the next morning. To further drive the point home, in the panel where they kiss, Seichii appears to have the "stuff" explode out of his body to symbolize the intense feelings he felt. This becomes subverted even further later on, first when Seichi remembers Seiko throwing him off a steep hillside when he was a toddler, and then when she shows up at his court appearance, says that she "quits" being his mother, and plainly states that she only ever had Seiichi for her own emotional gratification.

I'm very much enjoying this manga atm, we've gotten a time skip where Sei is now 36 years old and it is set in the year 2017. It'll be interesting to see where Sei's life ends up by the end of this manga. TL;DR : If you are looking for a psychological story set in a slice of life premise, Chi no Wadachi will fulfill your desires ( and might even haunt you a few days when you'll read it... ) The main players in this manga are Sei,Sei's Mother(Seiko) and his on again off again girlfriend Fukiishi. Sei is a likable kid at first, but after constant gaslighting by his mother Seiko, begins to take a swift change in personality a kin to that of the devil. Seiko(Sei's Mother) is a sexy milf, but she is 100 percent certifiably insane. Last is Fukiishi, you can tell she has her issues going on at home, and may not be the most stable as far as mentally goes, but her problems are on a much smaller scale than Sei.
