I just kena wish for at least a single happy ending... Everyone either dies or turn into freaks...
God!!
You need not forgive me.
For those I love,
The violence brought about by sinful men
Shall now be used once more.
If you were created to save this world,
If there is a single shred of hope left for the future of mankind,
I am very sorry, but, please begone!

errr... well, everyone became freaks... i am not sure whether to consider it happily ever after... the other one i had in mind is the "let an even better doctor make the doctor better" chapter... The doctor did save others, though fran made him rather... u know...

happy endings are happy. sort of.

I mean theres also the one where the girl chopped up her own body and served it to her family. Also the one where those two biological weapons lived happily ever after though poor fran's sister had such a crush on him

The one with the chopped off body if i recall isnt much of a happy end... but yeah, i guess the bio-weapon couple can be considered a happy end(?), though i get the feeling that it is due to Fran not helping out much in that chapter...

holy crap, I haven't checked out this series in years and looks like another group took to scanning it. Just finished catching up and damn, Poor officer Kuhou she's always on the bad end of all of Fran's stuff.

Also, the three sentinels are hilarious in an extremely morbid way and i'd never think I would see the Flying Spaghetti Monster as a non-joke cameo

N-N-Necro post. The manga just ended, and on such an abrupt ending too. Hopefully the mangaka will pick it up again though I heard rumors she ended it due to health (are all mangakas permanently sick?)

They don't really get a lot of break between deadlines, especially the weekly ones

A lot of them don't make a lot either so they can't afford to take a week off

It probably really is for health reasons. Mangakas are known to have carpel and other bad stuff

The ending was pretty touching of sorts (in its own special way) and does leave room for continuation at least.

I could handle the gore. But not sure about the jokes. Sometimes jokes just kill the series. Now here's the question. How's the storyline. I don't care for the plot, I've read it, I'm just curious on the storyline.
