Homunculus

What a god damn masterpiece. For some reason, this reminded me of Pi (1998) so I listened to the soundtrack on repeat while I read the entire manga.

Is It really that good?

Already did. Great fucking anime.

Yes, Homunculus is a work of art.

I'd say it's okayish personally, nice atmosphere and weird concepts, plot's pretty wonky at points (I still remember him raping some girl in a car for like 100+ pages while ranting about teen psychology and me wondering why the fuck I was reading this).

Can someone explain to me why he ate his own cum?

iirc he said he stopped being able to feel and taste after he got rich and so he tried to eat his cum to try and taste at least something.

Narcissist stuff, the ending references Yamamoto's goofy okama manga where a guy falls in love with his reflection in the mirror when he's crossdressing.

Was it that good ?

It was, but if you keep asking this, people will feel obliged to shit on it just to mess with people who like it or potentially will

I had no idea this was getting translated. I hope Voyeurs and hikari-man get picked up again

THAT good, no. It's okay. It's all over the place, it begins exploring an interesting concept but then throws it at the window and it's unsure where to go after that.

>and it's unsure where to go after that.
I keep seeing this meme and it's why I loved the manga when I read it a few months back. It's a pretty straightforward manga but it can get confusing if at some point in the manga you fool yourself into thinking it is about a premise that was never there.

Sounds like some crazy hoops you're doing to justify some mediocre writing.

I'm still not sure why the majority of people prefer it over Ichi the Killer. Homunculus is fine, but Ichi the Killer doesn't have a single wasted moment and is perfect in its execution. Whereas I don't think Yamamoto knew what he was doing with Homunculus both at the start and then around the three-quarters mark.

There's no hoops to go through when you haven't really adressed anything. You never made any real points, just stated a vague opinion and I stated mine.

2 posts in, the plot untouched and you're already confused.

Scanlation for Okama Hakusho is finished. Has been for over three years now.

It's because of the new stuff introduced as repressed memories to the point that it gets unconvincing. I like it on the whole too though.

The homunculi are this.
No wait they were all an illusion actually.
That's the point it lost itself in my eyes, that never sat right with me and never made sense from everything we had seen up to that point.

Kouji Yamamoto from Twin Engine expressed that seinen like Pet has a chance because big streaming services like Amazon have made it easier to reach busy adults and the Inception-loving fucks overseas, so even if the likelihood is minimal I'd say it's higher than 10 years ago.
