I've heard this manga is pretty sad, but I really didn't expect it to be this way straight from the get-go. The ending was pretty dark, and the contrast between the lighthearted art and dark themes creates a really interesting atmosphere.

This really felt like a very unusual reading expierence, I really like how Punpun and his family are displayed like this and theres probably a very good reason behind it. I'm already feeling uncomfortable while reading first chapter, I guess I shouldv'e listened to the warnings of not attempting to read this manga but its too late now.

What teatcher adverts about dreams is so... strong, repressive. I mean, his speech is in a frame focusing on the kids, turning it weirdly powerful. A beautiful contrast creating a nasty environment.

I can't take this seriously yet. I'm sure after reading it for a while I will get used to the characters' appearances, but right now it just looks a little too comedic. After reading a lot of dark things with heavy imagery, I can't take the people who are already calling this dark and sad after one chapter seriously either. It feels as though they are just saying that because they know this has a high rating or they have never read anything with serious subject matter before.

saito_pure said:
I am same age as Inio Asano. I am near age as Punpun and lived in suburb town of Tokyo like a town of Punpun. So, I would like to add information about Aiko's "the end of world".

I believe almost all of kids of those days in Japan knew "Nostredame's Yogen (prophecy)". It predicts that in Jul 1999 , King of Devil will destroy the whole world. Because there are many non-scientific topic like ghost , UFO and UMA , I , one of kids, got to know these are fake . But, I believe this prophecy little bit and expected a termination of the world before we grew up an adult.

On the other hand, there are a lot of new religions in Japan , and they were preparing the end of the world . Actually, My mother also went to rally/meeting of one of them in a short period .

So, Aiko's words are very normal to the kids . At same time, I recall a feeling of hollowness to talk with who believe what i don't agree.


Thank you for sharing! Your story really adds a human perspective to this chapter. I am unfamiliar with Japanese culture but I know here in the states many people were afraid of something bad happening when the year hit 2000.

This was a pretty good first chapter. I like how everyone in Punpuns family is depicted as birds.

So Punpun is a human but drawn as a bird in this manga. He has fallen in love with a kid in class named Aiko. However, Punpun's life at home is sad especially because his parents are fighting with each other almost everyday.

I can say that I can somehow relate to his situation. Even I want to colonize space someday, but hopefully, Punpun's innocence won't be affected by the evil father he has. At the last panels of this chapter, it gives off the message that it was Punpun's father in fact who hurt his mother.

the first chapter is promising (this is my 3rd attempt at reading this as it gives depression)

I feel like the homework for pun pun will serve as foreshadowing of how the world does not always gives us what we want.

I also like pun pun wanting to find a career path relating with his farther ( which I and I think many others might find relatable ).
however once seeing his farther after what appears to be an abusive fight I believe the dynamic will have a heavy change.

Another thing I like is how sex is introduced. I feel in modern media we can oversexualise things or be overly sensitive, but in this chapter I feel its introduced to the characters to how its introduced to many people (just talking to friends). (I hope this point does not sound really really stupid I have the Iq of -100000000)

this was my small chat about the plot.
