according to the novel, the correct translation was Red Blood Ygritte instead of Igris and Hyakki translates to White Walkers so the author was a bit of a Game of Thrones fan (even the artstyle of the Hyakki has the uncanny resemblance of White Walkers). The Daily quest as well (100 push ups、10km run etc) shows that the author is a One Punch Man fan as well since that training regimen was made popular by Saitama himself to be able to beat monsters in one punch

so, there was a tomb "kobayashi family grave" in chapter 1 at the beginning. i don't like to think that it means our cinnamon bun aki is dead. maybe it's his fam? since kazushige is also using a smartphone and talking to someone, maybe aki is the one on the other side of the phone hmmm also there's an artwork in the beginning pages of chapter 1 where kazushige is holding an umbrella (cos he a vampire rite) and both him and aki are wearing modern clothes HOPE RESTORED











i thought it was ogawa chise's art for sure
Damn right, it looks similar to ogawa chise art
IKR, glad someone else thought so too lol i thought i was just being stupid
Maybe she ever be Ogawa sensei's assistant. That can be the reason for similiar art when you learn under someone.
