GODDAMN look at those bazongas
That's a pretty sweet train.
very big tiddies
Don't do it, Punpun!
Why aren't these being uploaded online anymore? Am I gonna have to start uploading them on aggregate sites? I get immensely triggered when Scantalators try to privatize things.
I still have stuff to correct on the previous chapter. Have some patience.
It's usually a quality control thing. Some scanlators upload here first for corrections then later to mangadex or something for the final version.
RIP in peace kids.
very creepy
Not quite how I pictured Ryan to look
Ahh right my bad.
His hair is a bit goofy, but he's got the right eyes for his archtype
>"you look thirsty after all that coffee. Here, have a drink."
I was under the impression that they were in some way actual dolls. Like homunculi or soot animated puppets.
Turns out they were just brainwashed humans.
Also, it's ironic that shadows, who develop a personality by first imitating and then interacting with their doll, are in turn perfectly imitated by those very dolls as their face.
You left an 'upmost' instead of utmost on page 9 3rd panel of chapter 45.
Oh shit, was there a thread for 45? Missed out on that, gotta catch up real quick.
I don't have a better suggestion at the moment, but "deft" wouldn't really be used in this manner. Perhaps "with deft skill" or simply "adeptly" would be better
Have they ever mentioned how often new shadows are born?
Man, 25 really makes me think the Shirley that died was just a soot decoy. It's so suspicious being the first known case.
So out of all this morphs only three will become shadows.
Now that I think about it, you can also call the Great Grandfather, The Lord of the Shadows. What an ominous title.
This isn't Emilyko, this isn't Emilyko at all...
Who knows, maybe they'll all copy one of them but there's a preliminary which weeds out all of them except the best of each.
God, I want to fuck that Shadow/Doll. Hits so many of my fetishes.
Also, didn't expect the psycho shadow to look like that.
Oh shit, normal people? They don't seem like dolls.
Jesus Christ, her huge tiddies on panel everytime with those lips and corseted figure.
Just look at that overboob.
Oh man.
That's because they're not dolls, the "living dolls" are just human children brainwashed with the soot
Thanks for the dump.
I thought he'd be a lot more of an open mouth full of teeth smiles kind of guy.
>There's no need to be so nervous.
No, there definitely is.
sexy shadow is sexy
Your ESL is showing my friend.
Calmn down you little reddit whore.
It's been stated that a face's personality is very important to the development of a shadow's own personality.
In brainwashing faces with soot tea, the shadows themselves fall in line with the will of the shadows house. Only Kate seems to have shaken loose of this cycle, while Shaun and Ricky seem to have fallen right in line.
/ss/
>actual soot sickness being used to make humans fall in line
Hell l, burn it all down
gotta say they are pretty stylish
Just regular /s/. Ryan is the one touching little boys, not dorothy
"Hoarding" is misspelled, here.
The wording in the third panel is a bit awkward to parse, I would suggest putting commas on both ends of "inhaled daily".
/ll/
Thanks OP
I did too
Boy, can't say this was the exact origin for the shadows and dolls I had in mind. I thought it was something more like was thinking.
>straight soot
There should really be a coma between "daily" and "clouds"
Not correct
No, that's not, how, commas or, grammar works.
Thanks user
I really like how the author plays with the panels themselves, like how the textboxes become warped to show the brainwashing or how the panel's frame fell apart along with Shirley
Deft is not a noun. Either it should be chores deftly, of find a noun that fits.
Otherwise it's like saying "with quick" or "with hasty."
It's your choice, it's an anonymous translation after all.
you fucking retard
God, downdrafts in chimneys make me hard.
Same
1. Will Shirley come back or is the dispersion just a clue towards something? I thought they weren't just soot like Kate alluded to earlier?
2. Where did the grandfather and the morphs come from?
3. Do the hosts (dolls) expire which is why they need to keep finding new suitable ones, or are they doing all of this bullshit just to increase their count? From Ryan's "Faces exist to be stolen" and "They'll start to become attached to their 'faces'!". If it's the former, why do Ryan and co get to keep going on? How are they special?
4. Who's the shadow that helped Emilyko and friends earlier? Why does it seem like he has more individuality than the others? Does that mean something? Or probably it just means that that dude is also someone who unified already
5. Are the living dolls just kidnapped humans?
6. Has there been discussion already regarding the shadows being born from soot? A controlled "ghost" so to speak. Like every other shadow is just an offspring of grandfather? I dunno, just an idea to throw out there
^I guess this chapter answers question 5, but again not quite how I pictured it. It makes sense that the brainwashing works in a larger scale (although not as effectively I guess?) so they don't have to kidnap shit, just get given ones as tribute. Damn
The spot thickens
