| Touko is often surprisingly really weird, moreso to the audience, since we see everything of her, but at this point... unless the truth of why in the end makes all the sense, most of this strange behavior seems poorly forced by the mangaka. Now, she asked Chika what's having a baby feel like, touched her belly asking if she's happy now compared to when she was pregnant, and then thinks to herself how lucky Chika was... wtf. Was she raped, broken, had an abortion and now has daddy issues or something... Chika has been paranoid since last night, and it's only getting worse with this. ... What the fuck, Touka. It's bittersweet how worried about her brother she is though. We also learned that they have another male sibling, Kousuke, with a baby son, named Minato. Apparently he couldn't come again for being busy. Sounds like Hiroto is the lesser sibling the mother is less proud of or whatever for not having his own child. Chika also seems disappointed he couldn't marry a childless woman. |
| Man this girl is creepy lol I don't even know what I'd say if someone acted like this towards people |
  |
| I'm not sure if the writing is bad, the translation is bad, or both. It's bizarre enough to keep me reading but I have no idea what exactly in supposed to be taking away from this trip they're on. Basically just waiting for the next "holy shit" moment. |
| My lists are way out of date... |

Forget about being creepy, it's just so weird. I couldn't understand why she did that to Chika. It doesn't make any sense lol. Why is she digging her own grave.
| @Daredevil_007 I may be digging too deep here but I have a suspicion Touko can't bear children. We still don't know what happened to her biological dad and what their relationship was. Could have been something awful and abusive (maybe even raped and had to abort the baby). I have my theories to why she's creepy and why she acts the way she does with her stepdad. Anyways, at the end when Touko's touching her stomach and saying "lucky you", the way I interpreted it was - she's envious of Chika since she herself can't ever get pregnant. Her creepy smile here may just be her "defense mechanism" (like when some people cope with stress by smiling instead of crying). Her asking what it feels like to be pregnant and stuff, maybe she's asking this because it's something she'll never experience, although we are led to believe (like Chika) that she just wants to get pregnant (from Hiroto lol). Dunno, I think this manga isn't as simple as it seems. Main "bait" here is that a crazy girl wants to sleep with step-dad, but by now we've seen enough (IMO) to deduct that this is highly likely not the case. |

waalex11 said: I have exact same suspicions. I don't think this manga will give us the most SIMPLE explanation, which would be "she's just horny for her stepdad". I'm pretty sure she has a sad past and the creepy smile is how she deals with trauma.Was she raped, broken, had an abortion and now has daddy issues or something... |
| @Sigmar-Unberogen I also have no doubt that it's not a simple dad crush. She clearly has some kind of daddy and/or mommy issues for being insane like this from some kind of trauma. Hopefully it's not flawed and all well established in the end. I'm looking forward to the upcoming chapters. |

| So both of them are crazy, damn. |
| I like to post in manga forum when I feel it is worth it, so people will think. "Shit, is her again" or something. People asked me where I read certain thing but the rules say no telling where did you read so maybe I am too boring for not saying? Or salty because you didn't check my profile that says don't ask because I hate people to ghost me after that. I love learning languages so maybe I did not read the manga in English. |
