| THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER. ---------------------------------------- Wow... It was sad. |
| Best one-shot I've read. By far. It was so great. |
| This manga was incredible straight from the beginning to the end. The art was great and the story was fantastic, it really made me feel some deep emotions for the characters even though it was 140 pages long. Definitely my favourite one-shot I've ever read. |

| Really, really good!.. and sad.. Enjoyed it a lot! Also it wouldn't be Fujimoto if there wasn't a kino :D |
| cs |
| Pretty ok one shot |
   |
| That was fucking sad. Realizing that it's the second anniversary of the Kyoani arson made me feel significantly worse after. Incredible one-shot. |
| Can any one explain the story after the death of Kyomoto and ripping the Manga strip I didn't understand like time is turned back they didn't meet on that day then she save her on that incident in which she should have died I am prity confused |
 |
| Very good one-shot, liked it more than Chainsaw Man ngl |
 |
| It was simply amazing, Fujino sensei is top tier as per usual But please, stop making me cry T.T |

She comes up with this scenario in her head; "if I didn't do this, none of this would have happened." Obviously it's an outrageous scenario to come up with, where she just happens to be there at the time to save Kyomoto from being killed, but it's just her grief talking. It isn't literal. |

| Kinda makes me wish for a Shark Kick manga tbh, that looked fun. Good oneshot. |
 |
| Did Fujimoto had a friend at Kyoani ? Cause this oneshot is oddly specific |
| This was another really good oneshot from Fujimoto. I hope they release a volume compiling his other oneshots so I can import it. |
| :3 |
| damn that hit a spot . and the hypothetical situation she came up with in her mind made it even worse...... Letting the visuals do the talking , a very fine choice as usual . the spreads were damn beautiful as well . |
It would be funny if this one-shot turns out to be the prologue of chainsaw man part 2, but i guess it's impossible. |
| Im confused with the scene where fujino sees a drawing of her saving Kyomoto, what's that supposed to mean? like, kyomoto couldn't predict that, is she imagining it? If so, why? I know this fanbase is fast to hype up things but man, I can't believe that everyone understood that part at all. |
| ye looks like its KyoAni inspired with all the plagiarism motive of the killer |
| Well, there isn’t much to say about the story since it’s just a one shot but I really liked it for what it is. The art was great. I wanted this oneshot to have a teaser for chainsaw man part 2 but oh well |

| Honestly liked this more than Chainsaw Man, it's a beautiful one-shot that carries more impact than most other manga I've read, let alone one-shots. There's definitely some confusion when it starts going through the alternate timeline thing (though I don't think that's what actually happened, it was some weird grief thoughts from Fujino I think) and that's pretty much the only thing keeping this from a 10. Fighting tears throughout most of the end of it, and several minutes still now after finishing it and reflecting on it. Fujino looking back and seeing her signature. Then the whole thing about not liking drawing manga. I don't know if it's possible to be involved in a creative endeavor on any level and not relate to those panels. Then in the emotional climax we get the answer to the question, "why do you draw Fujino?", and it's not delivered in text, it's delivered in the memories. Kyomoto's smile upon reading her work, the emotional reaction it elicited in her, the tears, the surprise, the laughter. Those intimate moments spent together where her works touched her audience, and her friend. And that's just the story on a surface level, the background context make it even more powerful. Fujimoto = Fuji(no) & (Kyo)moto, there's clearly him placed within the characters. And as many noted, the "Kyo" being added is no coincidence. This is 100% written in response to that tragedy, in tribute to those lost. It's release date on the anniversary, the sudden horrific nature of Kyomoto's demise, the attackers claimed reasoning for the assault, Look Back just gets heavier with the real loss that inspired this tale. |
| The literary canon welcomes today a new work into its halls. All high school kids will hate writing essays about this two centuries from now. |

| Very good one-shot, One of the best ones I've read even though I've only read a handful of one-shots |
fegandr said: to think about the Once Upon a Time... In Hollywood BD/DVD on the floor, in the last page, Tarantino makes an alternative ending to Sharon Tate fate, like Fujino does. Oh, my. never seen that movie but i think its a popular western movie so maybe Fujimoto seen it |
| What an amazing one shot |

| Ohhh the feelings! :') "What if...." that hits hard! |
 |
| This was fantastic, such a wonderful one shot. |
