Spoilers- due to this being a short work with only 16 chapters, I’ll try to keep whatever I talk about confined to the first chapter. In a way, this manga is also a critique of surface-level distractions or attempts to pacify people that don't actually help fix the root problems. And that ignorance is the source of most of the humor within the series, since Takopi doesn't really know what's going on and will sometimes misinterpret some pretty dark shit in idealistic ways. The manga has a lot of moments like that and it also uses its distrubing and shocking events to further illustrate what a fucked up situation each of these characters are trapped in. But then later on in the story there's a more sinister side to her as she tries to pin Marina's murder on Azuma, wanted to "check inside people's bellies" for her dog (I don't know what checking inside people's bellies means, but it CANNOT be good), started hurting Takopi and even in another timeline stole Azuma from Marina.

Another bullying and abusing manga that reveals the true nature of humans when they get pushed to the edge , the story at some point didn't make any sense but after few chapters we got it and honestly I've no clue why the author tried to complicate it like that , well his plot twist didn't impact me that much for like I said we didn't get what's going on however this manga gives me mixed feelings like I hated all characters and I felt bad for em at same time , I guess the story not recommended to everyone it's a bit dark so give it a chance when you feel you ready for it . As I said before, this isn’t an easy-to-digest stomach, and I’d say it isn’t for the faint of heart. The sentiment of how lonely all these characters are and how even though Takopi can't do much to twist the forces outside their control, he can make it so that they're not so lonely anymore.

Indeed, it’s clear from the start that Shizuka is the target of bullying with her only source of happiness being Chappy — her dog and loyal companion, given to her by her dad because he disappeared from her life — while her mom works as an escort and not seen at home during the day. I also really like the more simplistic style for Takopi which makes him stand out from the human characters.By accepting all cookies, you agree to our use of cookies to deliver and maintain our services and site, improve the quality of Reddit, personalize Reddit content and advertising, and measure the effectiveness of advertising.

Trigger Warning By UNLOCKMEN : ถ้าคุณมีภาวะซึมเศร้าหรือรู้ตัวว่าใจไม่สามารถรับความรุนแรงได้ อย่าอ่าน Takopi’s Original Sin เด็ดขาด!

I did find some things negative: there are a few things that I think should have gotten more of a focus, and there’s a certain event that happens purely off-screen — while I’m fine with it being off-screen, the fact that it seemingly bore no consequences makes it feel inconsequential. Plus it didn't make much sense that the people would then have, like, residual memories of Takopi or something--which is honestly what the entire ending hinges on. Overall, Takopi's Original Sin is an absolutely brillaint manga with an amazing story, great art that suits the series extremely well, and multi-dimensional characters who you can empathize and feel for.
