I wonder how Asami will react to Aki being in a coma.
He’s unconscious and seems unable to wake up at the moment, in simplified terms that would be a coma wouldn’t it?
From wiki - A coma is a deep state of prolonged unconsciousness in which a person cannot be awakened; fails to respond normally to painful stimuli, light, or sound; lacks a normal wake-sleep cycle; and does not initiate voluntary actions.
I am not a doctor, but there is a condition that is similar to a coma. In this state, a person is unconscious, but there are reactions of the muscles of the face and body, the ability to swallow and some insignificant reaction of the pupils remains, the person reacts to sounds. I dare to assume that Akihito has such a condition and Asami can help him if he communicates with him.
There is different levels of coma, some head injury caused brain damage which may require ventilator. Not all coma is the same, and the term is very broadly used. Also please remember this is a manga not real life. For aesthetic or convenience purpose, she might not draw exactly the detailed or accurate medical equipment. Ever watch dramas? Many have comas and no life support so the actors and actresses can still look beautiful.
We're talking of an author who is doing a lot research. But you're telling me now that for the benefit of aesthetics she just disregarded any realism?
So why draw Asami more "like in coma", but not the one you think is "in coma"?
Instead of taking what IS actually there, we should just accept "coma"?
From "no coma drawn" and "no coma mentioned" we should gather "coma"?
Why? How? How can one even interpret that in any of what we see or read? You can't claim "rain!" when the garden is obviously all dry!
This is nothing but a nonsensical hysteria based on exaggeration.
Yes, many works of art disregard realism for aesthetic and convenience. VF has never been hyper realistic in any aspect either. The hair cut + bandages is obviously meant to show that there was a head injury. Like I said, coma is a broadly used term and many works of art take liberties when it comes to medical stuff.
It’s not that serious at all, people just mean unconscious. Why do you care so much what people want to call it anyway? The fact that Akihito can’t wake up right now will still be a point of discussion even if people tiptoe around that specific word.
To be honest I think that I am just annoyed by the attempt to overdramatice what people see in pictures... or what they even don't see - because they didn't actually see the raws, they just READ about them.
How is it possible to turn a chapter that is 85% "NOT Akihito" into 100% "ONLY Akihito"? There are people who only READ that Aki was in hospital, who state that they did not see any pictures, and still went like "OH GOD, HE IS IN COMA, THERE IS GONNA BE AMNESIA, I AM SOOOO WORRIED!!"
And yes, of course they have their right to worry for the characters they like, and I understand that they care for them. I REALLY DO! And i do not dislike Akihito. I hope he'll be fine! I'm just annoyed and confused.
I don't get it how people turn nearly 'no information' into a scenario of armageddon as if the whole chapter contained nothing but Akihito lying in bed being reanimated and about to die. He clearly isn't. He isn't even on life support. Even IF he is in a coma it is obviously not life threatening!
And still the most common remark you read everywhere is about how bad Akihito is hurt, how he saved Asami and how bad the amnesia will be, though there is no reason at all to expect any of those - besides of wishful thinking!!! Yes! Wishful thinking to actually see him suffer!
Furthermore Finder is a story with many aspects, with many characters. Yes, Akihito is a main, but so are Asami and Fei Long. Maybe .... just maybe it would be ok to have our brave Akihito have some rest and allow other characters to have some panels for themselves without pretending that they actually didn't exist.
I'm sorry if I came over harsh. I know that I sometimes do, but believe me it's basically only because I'm annoyed beyond reason. It's just unbearable for me that there are some people out there who would have loved if Asami and Akihito had stayed on that island, happily fucking into eternity, because they don't WANT any plot. And now that there IS plot they have to make it about Akihito and nothing but Akihito again, when clearly, obviously a lot MORE is happening.
This chapter is not about Akihito, it is not about Asami! It is about another character that is a main character of the series those people claim to love and still their only reactions are "OMG AKIHITO".
It is just tiresome. Really!
People who are commenting on the raws on Instagram/Facebook, many of them also use the word coma though. I’d guess once there is the eng scans posted here, the comments would probably be around the same too. It’s just meant to be unconscious. Many people don’t want amnesia and are worried it will happen because it would take literal years to resolve, it’s not because they want to see Akihito suffer. The comments are just a way to vent their worries and discuss together with other fans. I don’t think anyone is trying to purposely go out of their way to ignore any characters or pretend they don’t exist, discussion will just naturally drift to whichever aspect the majority of the readers are most curious/worried about at the moment.
Lmfao sorry but I only read comments about Asami everywhere. Especially on Facebook. Everyone is like “OMG LOOK HOW SEXY ASAMI IST , HE IS DADDY” And Im like WTF
I’m glad that I found people talking about Akihito. I think you didn’t read the comments below the raws or else you would have seen this too. No one was seriously talking about Akihito condition. They were just glad that Asami is awake which fucked me up
I have been reading comments on several media for days since the first raws popped up and it was either Akihito is in coma and amnesia is coming - like that was already a universal truth and not interpretation - or yes about Asami looking sexy.
It's the same thing right now. There are chapter summaries with 30 sentences about Akihito's and Asami's condition that are nothing but guesswork and still drive people into hysteria, while 90% of the chapter are completely disregarded.
This chapter must have been hell for those people then, because all they want from Finder is AxA and nothing else. But this chapter was everything else and 10% AxA.
It's just tiresome.
The reason for the concern of readers is that what is happening in 9 volumes comes from Akihito's name and we see exactly his feelings: pain, suffering, jealousy, doubt. He has come such a long way to finally be near the Asami, they have become so close on the island, and here again there are battles, suffering and pain. After all, he was fully conscious as he flew down with an unconscious and injured Asami, I don't even want to imagine that moment of impact. And now he is lying emaciated, pale, with bruises under his eyes, because the blow fell on the spine and the back of the head, which in real life would lead to disability, if not death. And there is still a lot of trouble ahead if he wants to stay on Asami's side.
If the patient is stabilized then they have no need for machines or life support. Most states of unconsciousness are classified as comas after a day.
Hospitals wouldn't waste equipment on stabilized patients and most likely Aki have a nurse constantly monitoring for changes. On the other hand, Asami was shot near vital organs so he needs to be monitored.
Ignorance is unnecessary.
