I came here after watching the anime which is still ongoing.
I kinda believed that Takopi's Original Sin was actually about the dark theme that usually such child friendly animation tells us. I mean, well..
Throughout the story, I don't really see anything happy. It's a very dark meaning of "I'm fine", "I'm okay".
The WORST KIND was, their Disgusting undeserving parents. My folks believe that, bearing children is the best way to resolve a marriage or husband and wife conflict or fight.
But for me, it's such a bigoted, ego-centric clownfullery mindset that...idk what to say anymore. Women aren't meant to be happy after marriage, they aren't meant to bear children or anything else after marriage. IT'S JUST TOTAL NONSENSE COOKED UP BY THE SOCIETY!!! NOW A DAYS, CHILDREN LIKE SHIZUKA, MARINA, NAOKI...THEY ALL SUFFER FROM SUCH HORRIBLE CHILDHOOD ALL BECAUSE OF THE DISQUALIFIED PARENTS, WHO KNOWS TO FOOL AROUND BUT NOT TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT IS A CONDOM OR WHATSOEVER IS NEEDED TO BECOME A GOOD PARENT.
These kids, were messed up all because of their malevolent family circumstances. ಠ益ಠ I can't find fault in the kids, they still wanted to be kind, Shizuka didn't know how to fight back as she never had an adult to learn from, Marina never learnt kindness as her mother was incapable of giving her any love, Naoki was jealous of Junya all because his mother made it a competition between the brothers, wtf! These scums don't deserve to be parents, rather I'd say, they deserve to rot away in concentration camps, neutered or something.
All in all, please read it with a lot of caution, their deeds won't be justified, just coz they are kids, but you need to understand the concept of this story, ot might seem meh. But you need to disect the meh to find the Psychological element.
