I hate when semi smart authors need to show how smart they are. It seriously offends me

You misunderstood Punpun. Not because you're intellectual dumb, but because you are emotionally apathetic to the character.

It's a series about people that don't have anyone to connect to. They are misunderstood emotionally. They aren't "le misunderstood genius." It's their feelings which are misunderstood.
This isn't to say they are the only ones feeling this, but they don't have anyone to support them.

Uncle: has deep regrets about his past actions and feels he needs to repent through masochism. It's why he doesn't feel Angry at Punpun for sleeping with his gf, because he knew he deserved to be cheated on. He obviously can't tell anyone.
Aiko has no independance, she's abused and is locked away. She doesn't understand herself and doesn't think she could find anyone who could help her understand
Punpun experienced very complex issues growing up. Stuff that he couldn't explain to other kids, and it grew to the point where he just covered up his own feelings to avoid having to explain everything. By the time he was an adult he never learned to explain himself or to communicate his feelings.

The theme of "you don't understand" isn't a knock at the reader for not getting some hidden agenda/message. The plot just follows the life of people hurting inside trying to carry heavy burdens within.

It also represents the authors transgenderism. Deep personal issues that can't be conveyed to even your closest friends because they couldn't understand.

There, I just explained Punpun to you. I hope you understand why there's a crossover between Punpun fans and Evangelion fans. It's stories about emotions, growth and development etc. It's not everyone's cup of tea.

This manga was insufferable.

This is your brain on WSJ.

I'm sorry I remembered people saying he was trans and I only got more confirmation from anons and online forums before I researched. He is not trans, and I have no clue as to why this meme started.

So disregard the part where I said he was trans. I think trans people took the message of holding onto complex emotional issues and so on and probably related that to their trans identity. This isn't the first time I've seen trans rights activists gaslight people and call them trans for them.

Imagine comparing 2 completely different stories and character together and thinking you're making some profound point. You're a complete idiot. And I don't argue with people who can't argue and only posts retard pictures that cherry pick because the guy who made it isn't here.

>I-I'm not assblasted, I swear!
Clown, if you don't care something, sperging out about how you don't care about isn't the way to show it, you're embarassing yourself.

Make a comic then.

If you're so smart.

there's a pretty clear reason the manga starts making less jokes as time goes on.

Your post was so profoundly stupid that I got asshurt, but I'll stop being mad in 2 minutes and you'll keep being a retard.

>implying they're not

It means smart, but not as smart as OP

>Miyazaki: I hate Inio Asano physically, I dislike that kind of man.
>Urasawa: I’ve never understood why. Have you met him?
>Miyazaki: Oh, yes. I can hardly bear to talk to him. He has the disease. That particular combination of arrogance and timidity sets my teeth on edge.
>Urasawa: He’s not arrogant; he’s shy.
>Miyazaki: He is arrogant. Like all people with timid personalities, his arrogance is unlimited. Anybody who speaks quietly and shrivels up in company is unbelievably arrogant. He acts shy, but he’s not. He’s scared. He hates himself, and he loves himself, a very tense situation. It’s people like me who have to carry on and pretend to be modest. To me, it’s the most embarrassing thing in the world—a man who presents himself at his worst to get attention, in order to free himself from his hang-ups. Everything he writes on the page is therapeutic.

So Asano is literally me?

How is it nihilistic?
