Ah, I suppose I’m missing some parts of the story as I’m going along. Admittedly I haven’t been focusing as much for the sake of catching up lol.
Oh ok, interesting, I hadn’t heard of that before.

this is fun…
this isn’t the title of chapter 41
I have found of few of these easter eggs as I’ve been going through and fixing them but this one took me a minute
edit…oh yeah just got to chapter 41!
OCR + small font size (on my monitor) = missing more than I should be…
I already fixed it…
corrected
just like a spot the difference game
Probably I should increase the font size on the page I use for managing the club…
Before:
After quick fix:
finally finished ch42… now I’m only 2 weeks or so behind…
I wanted to randomly add a theory from the last few chapters.
ラム is apparently going to become a 顔の見えない人形。Her memory will be wiped using the special coffee.
However, one of the few special attributes she had, other than being timid, was a fantastic memory (able to memorise the whole map). So does that mean she may be partly immune??
Oh, that’s really interesting! I hadn’t considered that. But if that were the case, wouldn’t she have memories from before she was kidnapped as well? I believe the coffee is how they initially “memory wipe” the kids to turn them into living dolls.
That’s very true! So probably not.
Unless she did have memories, which was why she was so unhappy.

With these chapters, we’re reaching the end of another volume!

Does anyone know what the word is right after こどもに? I tried using character recognition, and 開示 came up. But the first kanji looks way different. Is this a handwritten vs typed thing? Or was the character recognition wrong? I tried using radicals in Jisho, but couldn’t find it (looking for lantern + head, in WaniKani radical terms).
What about the kanji when John is responding while being scolded by Kate? After いや…ほめようと.
Woah! We’ve gotten to where the manga and anime differ. The anime made a pretty big change to the order of events. This stuff was in the beginning of the second season. I’ll go into more detail once we get to the part that was at the end of the first season.
開示 is correct.
Looks to me like the 略字 form of the 門 radical, though obviously in the slightly weird font that this manga likes to use sometimes.
思って, I’m pretty sure.
心 always looks weird in handwriting.
I have to give thanks to 五等分の花嫁 for all the weird fonts and handwriting. I got pretty decent at making out what’s intended thanks to that series.
Thanks!
Based on the context, 思って is what made sense. But I just could not see what was on the page as being that kanji. Handwritten Japanese almost seems like another writing system sometimes!
It almost looks like 鬼 but it’s definitely 思. In handwriting, sometimes the 心 part gets bent a bit. Here are some examples.
Exactly! I thought so too. Thanks for the examples. That last one is way out there!
This is probably the easiest-to-understand facial expression we’ll get to see in a shadow…
Finally finished ch46… trying to push through … not quite caught up but getting closer…
though the story is getting
a bit more disturbing and harder to read… feel bad for the kids
So started to watch the anime…haven’t started ch47 yet but watching the anime I noticed something that I remember reading but now I question it…
Only got through the first 2 ep of the anime…but had forgotten about some of the maybe side clues Kate is different…
Water is used to quell the soot monsters and what not… but Kate takes baths! hmm… didn’t really pay this much attention before… maybe it’s nothing…maybe it’s something different?
Just some random thoughts
