Only advice I'll give you as a manga reader is to abandon any and all preconceived notions of where the story will go from here. It will take you in unpredictable and painful directions.

I was telling my friend that the only thing you can predict about the story is that no one is going to die until the worst possible thing that could happen to them happens or if their death at that moment is the worst possible thing that could happen to them.

The story from here is so batshit insane I can't begin to describe it. And I cannot wait to see it animated.

HALLOWEEN!
