Chapter 5: Licking Planet

>>280216031
excellent choice of chapter title, Ito-sensei

>>280215985 (OP)
Licking Remina... Getting licked by Remina...

>>280216069
The oceans must be going crazy right now.

>>280216141
dude just wanted to be king kong the whole time

>>280216158
>BOING

>>280216002
>>280216031
>>280216040
I love the panels in this story,
having the huge planet size monster appear over everyone's heads is inherently cool.

>>280216116
Bro stop it's over, just accept the apocalypse in peace

>>280216141
What the FUCK is his problem

>>280216069
They should all be dead by now.

>>280216141
Comedy mangaka

>>280216116
He really loves his job as a cult leader.
I wonder what I was doing before all this end of the world stuff.

>>280216172
Educated hobo

>>280216141
he really hates her lmao

what the fuck is going on

Ito really likes flying madmen

>>280216185
Is it a planet-sized monster, or a monster-shaped planet? How would we even know the difference?

>>280216303
>this is my window! it was made for me!

>>280216241
>Heard you liked the tornado riders in Uzumaki, so have some more of them!
Ito-sama, please, have mercy

>>280216269
I wonder if they are being mind-controlled by Remina.

>>280216352
Thanks, Homeless-kun. I never would've guessed.

>>280216069
>sob sob sob sob sob sob

>>280216395
>remina noticed

>>280216431
>using up all the fuel
Gee, I'm sure that can't possibly backfire on them!

>>280216431
I hope we get to see more of those twisted aliens.

Someone liked Raiders of the Lost Ark.

>>280216303
Reminds me of the story where the humans are mosquitos.

>>280216536
Only fitting with all the Star Wars references

>>280216551
is he ok

>>280216536
>using him as a guinea pig

>>280216640
everyone wants a remina

Done. I can't lie, that looks really really fun. I'm sure physics work like that, because it's what I want to believe.
Have you ever chased someone as part of a mob?
Only one chapter left. See you tomorrow!

>>280216647
personally I want Mo
>>280216654
Thanks, OP.

>>280216654
That one guy with the sunglasses looks like he's just trying to have some fun and get some air.

>>280216141
>You gotta be shitting me.
My reaction to this whole ending when I read it for the first time.
It's certainly memorable.

>>280216571
He's just dreaming.

>>280216002
Remina just smoked Radahn.

>>280216654
Homeless-kun loves his idol waifu

>>280216654
>random lady in her bikini/underwear because why not

>>280216395
That's a pretty slick transition.

>>280216457
That sure looks inviting. A veritable paradise!

>>280216457
What a vile landscape. I wish he did a spread of just the third panel.

>>280216188
>It suddenly turned into Indigo Fucking prophecy
Ah, shit

>>280216488
It's like the perfect mixture of recognizable deformity and alien, undersea life form. I'm both sickened and captivated at the same time.

>>280216057
Wheeee!

>>280216536
What did they think might happen? it's not that shocking. They'd get a similar result if they took the guy's helmet off in the vacuum of space. Remina doesn't need a toxic atmosphere, since he'd still get boiled and decompressed in no atmosphere.

>>280216623
>How is this happening?!
>It's just happening
Dude explained the entire manga right there.

>>280216654
I bet 80% of them just want to have fun and forget the world is ending.

>>280216640
RE-ENTER

>>280216141
Cult Leader is dedicated to making Remina suffer for reasons unknown.I don't think he ever believed his own lies about killing her would save the world.

>>280216431
never noticed that he grew a 5 o'clock shadow

>>280216188
Hobo=hero

>>280216425
I think they're being manipulated by the cult leader or just went crazy and decided Remina would be a scapegoat.

>>280216654
Thanks OP
>Have you ever chased someone as part of a mob?
No

where's my nigga mo?

>>280216141
He's just having fun

>>280217619
Off to kill Remina.

>>280216654
Thanks OP. If playing manhunt as a kid counts, then yes

>>280216262
accountant

>>280217619
Mobah

>>280216654
Thanks, anonsito.

So we've reached the "fish walking machines doing circus acrobatics" part of the story

>>280217619
Where Tomie fears to look

>>280218362
It's a very important part of any Ito story.

>>280216141
son long gay Remina

>>280216457
>>280216474
>>280216488
>>280216503
this does look pretty disgusting, just this fleshy organic shit everywhere. I think I would rather die on earth

>>280216188
Suddenly a shonen fight between a hobo and nutjob

>>280216116
What the fuck does he want

>>280216141
At least someone's having a good time

>>280216172
>yeah the world's ending
>but I really, REALLY want to fuck this guy up anyway
I like this hobo

>>280216221
Is anyone even left

>>280216269
Incredible panel

>>280216384
This manga's doing a great job of showing the sheer scale of events happening

>>280216488
I wonder what is going on there.
I suppose these are mini-mouths and mini-eyes for Remina to "passively" eat small meteors and the like while the main mouth eats planets, and the "toxic gases" are just Remina's secreting all the gases from said meteors and the like.
But still, why the tree-like structures?
Are all the eyes a single consciousness?
Anyway, since the very surface is sentient and toxic they have no chance of survival.

>>280216457
What a lovely place to settle down
Maybe the rent's cheap

>>280216640
Kino
>>280216654
Thanks anon
>Have you ever chased someone as part of a mob?
No

>>280216488
I bet it fucking stinks

>>280219087
maybe it's a whole ecosystem and they prey on each other

>>280216551
I like that Ito could've just made him cough up blood and die or something but decided that wasn't hellish enough for Remina

>>280216640
This manga's a good contender for having my favourite Ito pages

>>280216141
what fun!

>>280216654
Thanks OP
Only the opposite, as a young lad

>>280217264
Kinda hard to forget considering everything

>>280217619
Taken by the spiral

>>280216241
wasps

>>280217763
I wonder what he's doing right now

>>280216269
Im starting to think Remina is actually having fun watching the flying hobo vs the lynch mob and that is why it hasnt eat the planet yet

>>280219146
Fits for a Tomie planet

>>280216488
which junji itos could actually survive on remina?

>>280219087
remember that remina is from another universe
"parasites" able to survive on Remina's atmosphere and digest its flesh after it eats their planet are probably a lot more common there

>>280216269
That bottom panel is fantastic.

>>280219317
>not a single spiral in sight

>>280216395
bad idea

>>280219304
Just like us?

>>280216431
>He's actually excited to see his son

>>280219317
Tomie would probably subsume the whole planet once one gets killed on it's surface

>>280219699
Of course he is. This son actually made something of himself while his other son is a fucking loser. Or at least that's what he thinks

>>280216536
>>280216551
Ok. Now what?

>>280216903
>Indigo prophecy
Goddamn that is a name I haven't heard in a LONG time
My first vidya titty

>>280216654
This was such a cool chapter. Loved it. Thanks. No, I've never chased anyone like that.

>>280219291
He turned 30% of the world's children into dolls a few weeks ago.

>>280220371
I liked that one a lot, too.

Does anyone know the thread where The Seashore from Mimi's collection was dumped? I've tried searching for it name but can't find anything.

>>280220520

>>280220565
https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/279759256/

>>280216654
You know what, I dig the hobo guy.
The man didn't ask to be a hero. He only got involved in this whole thing by complete happenstance. Yet he's doing the right thing and protecting Remina even with the world literally spinning into madness

>>280220612
the panel with the ghost faces appearing on the graves during the lifter story was also pretty good

>>280220787
did you just say spining? rotation????

>>280216654
>Have you ever chased someone as part of a mob?
No one told me there would be this much hard work in the angry mob, I woulda stayed home if I knew that

>>280216430
You jest but I bet it would be impossible to understand what the hell is going on without this suspiciously cosmology-savy hobo.

>>280216522
>>280216536
No surprises there, the escape plan was always doomed to be a slow death even in their most delusional best case scenarios. It is now clear that these idiots should've stayed on earth and ritually murdered Remina like the smart and reasonable mob.

>tornado riders
>fart powered zeppelin for two
>antigrav mob
Maybe Ito's real passion is airborne movement mechanics. He should be making FPSs right now but he's stuck as a comedy mangaka

>>280219317
Byakuya Kyouko and the Reverend of Darkness. The creator of the universe too.

>>280216002
Made in Heaven?

>>280222424
damn not even tomie has simps like these

>>280219087
It's just the planets biome. Same way we live on Earth, and microbes live on/in us.

Honestly though? What would you do in a scenario like this when you know everyone and everything is fucked regardless?

>>280223651
Relax with my family and cats as much as I can before I die, I would certainly try not to work during that time.

>>280223651
Shitting and pissing myself in fear.

>>280216425
Nah, they've been influenced by the cult leader to finally kill Remina in revenge before they all bite it.
I do think the cult leader is putting on a performance for Hellstar Remina though, and the latter is really entertained by her pre-dinner show.

>>280223651
drink with friends and be merry

>>280223651
Is the internet still up?

>>280225129
no. all the satelites would have been destroyed by the lick

>>280189326
>>280189340
>>280189352
Supernatural fantasy it may be, but this is one of the most realistic looking depictions of a megatsunami I've ever seen; a giant explosion of mountain high white water with a flood like "shelf" of ocean behind it, rather than the typical Hollywood depiction.

>>280216425
This is the theory I've always had. It makes the most sense. Not necessarily mind controlled directly but made insane by the influence of the evil planet. It makes it seem like Remina is the only thing that can stop Remina.

>>280225801
I never read too much into it to be honest. Having an eldritch horror planet appear out of a black hole and do a bee-line to devour Earth is bound to turn a % of the population completely batshit insane to the point where any illusion of control or being saved would be better than just accept the powerless horror of their situation.

>>280216069
Not seen that kind of abuse to Earth since Torikos got spanked.

>>280216141
Cult Leaders up there with Uncle on just being the silliest fuck the Apocalypse has to offer.

>>280216654
When i started playing Space Station 13 i ended up joining a Cat hating Lynchmob that tore 5 Felinids, Security and the Captain apart before Admemes gave us all a timeout if that counts.

>>280221041
>someone said ROTATION?

>>280216474
Good job landing dumbass

>>280216551
You can see his eyes gain Remina lashes too. Nasty way to 'die'. (I'm unconvinced the dead die on Remina.)

>>280217797
I wouldn't repost this every thread. You'll get a paraphilia that manifests in real life and you'll never be free. I have seen this happen in /aco/ and elsewhere.

>>280227772
I think he posts it because he already likes old ladies

>>280227720
nice catch

>>280227794
No, you don't understand. It's not the old lady paraphilia he will gain. If he posts the same thing over and over again, his neural plasticity will reorient around that specific image. He will make threads asking for that exact pose. He won't be able to get it up if she's not wearing panties, etc.

I've seen it happen before.

>>280227931
Sometimes you have to let a man go

>>280216536
>What's wrong?!
gee I wonder

https://itojunji.com/
Who asked for this?

>>280229063
Surely they'll get it right this time
Right

>>280216069
The entire atmosphere should have vaporized and they should all be asphyxiating.

>>280216141
Remember how this guy wasted so much time saying that killing Remina was "sacred"?

>>280216241
>>280216269
How did so many of them survive and why the FUCK are they still so determined to murder Remina?

>>280216457
Wow, this sure does look hospitable towards life!

>>280229228
>we just need to kill Remina bros, once we kill Remina everything will go back to normal bros...

>>280216503
There isn't even any fucking ground beneath the canopy of those fucking things. One wrong move and you'll plunge forever into a literal hellpit.

>>280216536
>>280216551
Poor bastard.

>>280216654
Thanks OP.

>Have you ever chased someone as part of a mob?
Mercifully, no.

>>280217619
In the place Oshikiri is too short to reach.

>>280219317
Most of his other demons or evil spirits would find it very homely. Tomie would bitch about the lack of caviar or foie gras though.

>>280219317
The guy from paranormal investigation club would be like "Yoooooo this is fire!".

>>280216591
It's a paradise because you get to go quickly and without suffering.

>>280229701
Intersolar planetary horror tendrils typed this post

>>280219317
Oshikiri survives remina easy. desu

>>280216591
who could have anticipated that the planet with the gigantic eyeballs and tongue wouldn't be a nice place

>>280216069
The spin can do that?

>>280229273
>Just 2 more weeks to flatten Remina!
>We're in this together!

>>280219317
He thrives.

>>280216522
They're out of fuel anyway. It doesn't matter if they test it on a guinea pig or not.
If it's poisonous, they're fucked no matter what.

>>280216640
Hobo-kun is so fucking cool.

>>280230301
"Woah! This is the coolest place ever!" All the while, running around with his helmet off.

>>280230633
Oh, I was thinking about how he would survive, but him coming into the ship and driving everyone crazy with his crazy sorbennatural antics in Remina is more fun.
I can also see him slowly terraforming Remina by constantly "discovering new places." The end result may or may not be worse than the original Remina. LMAO

This is the stupidest thing I've ever read in my life.

Fucking hell.

>>280230964
First Ito story?

>>280216721
Kek

>>280229228
It's just a couple dozens of survivors in a city that probably had millions of people

>>280229280
Interesting that Remina is so much bigger than Earth but they haven't complained about a high gravity
Makes me wonder how much of its mass is just bullshit like that

>>280229748
>Oshikiri opens his front door to >>280220346
>closes it and goes back to sleep
>wakes up and opens it again
>back to normal

>>280216654
Thank you for posting.

>>280230964
First time in the Itoverse?

>>280230964
Agreed, this one is very silly even by Ito's standards, great art though

>>280232502
Uzumaki and Gyo are just as silly

>>280229701
I give you the 'fast' part but if this >>280216536 or this >>280216551 looks like 'going without suffering' to you, maybe get your eyes or brain checked.

>>280230964
The only thing that's stupid to me is her becoming an idol but he needed a reason to make her recognizable enough for everyone to hunt down. Love everything else. Does the cool hobo guy and art not redeem it for you even a little bit?

>>280230796
He's somehow already been there and was the who made it look and act like that.

>>280233042
>peacefully melted by Remina's atmosphere
Imagine the smell.

>>280230964
You haven't read enough manga, or even enough storytimes

What would it take to stop Remina? How do you kill something the slams into planets at near light speed?

>>280234268
Yamcha solos.

>>280234268
A black hole is probably the only way.

>>280234268
Could the USS Ishimura take on Remina?

What I don't like about Remina is that it's supposed to be a living planet from another universe and it has eyes and a tongue. Somehow it doesn't feel alien enough.

>>280234307
>Yamcha sees it coming towards Earth
>throws a baseball straight through its big eye and out the back
I was thinking more sci-fi though. Like I'm pretty sure the Imperium in 40k could do it, but it would take quite a few cyclonic torpedos and other Exterminatus weapons. I'm not sure the UNSC or the Covenant would have the capability of killing it. Maybe the Forerunners since they were retconned into being straight up wacky strong.
A single Culture warship solos with Gridfire.
>>280234399
Considering its size relative to Remina, not a chance. It cracks earth-size planets and Remina is almost the size of a small gas giant.

>>280234399
Planet cracking isn't just shooting a missle at it and picking through the pieces, it's a lengthy process of slowly pulling the planet apart piece by piece

>>280234268
Maybe you don't kill it. Maybe you try to stop it from killing you. Like, camouflage our planet so that threats like Remina can't find us, would have to first identify how things like that find solar systems in the first place. Or try to find something Remina doesn't like or can't eat and use it to repel it. Or do some sort of scarecrow tactics where we present ourselves as a bigger threat than Remina even if we can't actually do shit.

>>280234268
it was never there in the first place. it's all a hallucination in remina's head.

>>280234268
just listen what it has to say

>>280234792
Elaborate a bit. Your theory seems interesting.

>>280235068
no.

>>280234268
Antimatter

>>280235068
>He doesn't instinctively get the magic of trolldom
Not gonna make it

>>280235265
For all we know it's made of anti-matter. Or some kind of foreign Strange matter. It can slam into planets at near light speed with no damage to itself.

>>280220255
>>280220346
>>280220371
>>280220612

>>280234268
The Earth's immunity system can protect us.

>>280234268
There's always a bigger fish.

>>280236372
But you posted the biggest jobber to ever exist, I don't think Remina can lose that one

>>280235714
Can he though?

>>280234268
By using Good Planet

>>280235478
Well we know it's not made of antimatter because when it touches shit from earth everything doesn't explode with the energy of a gazillion atomic bombs.

>>280235478
>For all we know it's made of anti-matter
If it were it would start ablating the moment it came into contact with anything in this universe

>>280236858
Pretty sure Mogo is at least as big of a jobber as Galactus.

>>280229196
I mean he technically doesn't kill her, he's just fucking with her. They also stuffed her face into the gutter and tortured her in other ways

>>280236772
Going limp never failed once.

>>280234268
this dude. believe me.

>>280239129
I remember that guy

>>280235714
Someone give Remina a knife!

>>280239129
Who this?

>>280234268
>What would it take to stop Remina?
Gagas Bandas

>>280234268

>>280234268
the ideon was able to slice a planet in half, so it probably has a chance (the idea of mecha fighting giant evil planets is too underutilized)

>>280240850
Unfortunately I don't think Megas has what it takes. At a minimum I think it would take a mecha on the order of Super Galaxy, but even then it might have to be the Tengen Toppa.

>>280241087

>>280234268
Getter Emperor

>>280241006
>the idea of mecha fighting giant evil planets is too underutilized
Because you'll never have the evil planet be voiced by Orson Welles ever again

>>280241463
But that planet IS a mecha

>>280216503
>People could live on remina

>>280220346
Whenever I end up revisiting this page I'm just reminded of one of my favorite death metal album covers for whatever reason. At least I imagine it's about as red.

>>280242174
Same. The nightmare of being is a pretty accurate cover for remina

>>280236463
>>280238500
Galactus is a jobber only when he try to eat Earth

>>280234268

>>280216188
HE STARTS FUCKING SWIMMING TOWARDS HER LMAOOO

Where the FUCK is OP

>>280243919
Remina is easily the silliest of Ito's works.

This manga has such a strong start and then gets retarded by this chapter

>>280244265
Hardly, Gyo easily beats it in silliness.

>>280244259
He got Uzumaki'd. RIP OP

This is the finale, right?

>>280240360
A JK loving PE Teacher from the manga "Hakaijuu" that scaled from PE Teacher to MGR Character, a Evangelion, Country Sized Kaiju and then Ultimate Lifeform.

He´s as entertaining as they come.

>>280244553
remina reminds me a lot of hakaijuu because of the increasing scale it operates on. when you start to figure out how truly fucked everyone is on hakaijuu is forever burned in my brain as one of the best manga moments I've ever read

>>280244259
Opobo

>>280244607
Remina kinda immediatley went from 0 to 100 in that its clear the planets done for, Hakaijuu atleast started as "just" a monster crawling out and bringing havoc before it showed how truly fucked mankind is. Just for HIM to kill it anyway and give humans a chance to survive.

>>280244670
yeah the build up was really effective there especially if you had no idea what kind of manga it was. the threat just kept growing until the very end

>>280235714
But what are we gonna do when Remina starts "scaling" the "wall"?

>>280234268
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0vCY3I5yxo

Gunbuster has Anti-Matter missiles, I guess that and Black Holes are the only thing the story didn't address directly. Gunbusters "Space Monsters" look like something out of Remina anyway.

Not shown in that clip, in the final episode they have a bomb that blows up the entire galactic core (leaving it with an even bigger black hole) in order to eliminate the birthplace of the space monsters.

What an absolute chad.

>>280245885
Considering the suit is intact, the plant must've basically sucked him out.

>>280246041
Absolutely

>>280246094
What the fuck is his problem

>>280246112
KEK

>>280246094
The sheer persistance on this man, if theres a Villain Team for Junji Ito stuff aswell, he´s got a spot.

>>280246133
WHAT A TWIST

>>280246133
WHAT

I unironically have never forgotten the final few pages of this since I read it ages ago. When I read it people hated it at the time, but it just stuck with me

>>280246133
I take it back, he´s just a fucking Idol simp afterall.

Once again the real enemy is idolfaggotry

>>280246190
>Idol Fan Club President is a literal fucking cultist.

Yeah, checks out.

>>280246133
Did this guy take up the mantle? I think the cult leader showed up when Goda was still with the group.

>>280246213
The End.

>>280246213
>The End.

>>280246193
How would you get out of this situation

Kino

>>280246224
Once the flying part started, the original prez flew around the planet so fast that he traveled back in time and became the cult leader, the cult leader was him from the future all along.

>>280246260
>Welp, what to do now.

>>280246241
Repulsive

>>280246276
I believe it.

>>280246279
We Twin Spica now I guess. Where the FUCK is Asumi

....Yeah alright, sure.

They didn't fly so good. Who wants to try next?

>>280246241
>OISHIIIII

>>280246241
Look at this smug satisfied bitch enjoying her meal

>>280246338
>>280246304

I have never stopped thinking about what living like this would be like

>>280246410
What else is there to do BUT fuck

>>280246429
Not that kind of fucked, the "A year left to live at best." fucked!

>>280246369
>Stuck in the endless void of space with two more idol flags while having literally nowhere left to run
Aye caramba…

>>280246426
What is with the sword/cross thing in the void

Butt fuck

>>280246453
And what better way to spend that year but FUCKING

>>280246369
>Maybe there'll be another miracle in that year.
Honestly, why not? The chances of them surviving so fare have been pretty much zero and it's worked out for them. Maybe God or whoever really likes them.

>>280246460
Yeah I noticed that, poor Remina.

>>280229063
One day they'll get it right.

>>280246465
Its the same cross that Remina was crucified on, I it was made of wood from Yggdrasil because its really fucking durable

>>280246528
Suffering and dying in all the most horrible ways

>>280246465
It's the cross Remina was on, obviously.

>>280245885
>Enter humanity's saviors
WAAAAGH!!!

Done. A hopeful ending? Or an even bigger horror than a swift death? You decide.
Did you like the manga? Favorite character? What could it have done better? What did you love and what did you hate? Any lingering thoughts?
See you tomorrow!

>>280246440

>>280246581
Fucking idolfags, man. Every goddamn time. Thanks, OP.

>>280246133
https://youtu.be/r3T8WbthnZ4?si=aM7guxXHCUqTdStB

>>280246581
Thanks OP
I liked it quite a bit. Ito really nailed the swiftness of such a total apocalypse, the imagery was fantastic. Worst boy was the rich kid, the hobo was the man

>>280246607
No it fucking shouldn't have

>>280246581
Like pretty much all of Ito's longer stories, it starts out great but becomes increasingly silly and nonsensical as it goes on. Still, it had pretty neat imagery and at least it didn't drag on after becoming silly like Gyo did.

>>280245591
Hobo is the ultimate badass

>>280246568
Is this image broken for anyone else

>>280246581
Remina always fascinated me out all of It's stories, but that may be because the concept of an Eldritch planet is interesting to me. Though, I wish someone was creative enough to come up with a satisfying story that goes more in-depth into the concept and doesn't just leave it to the imagination.

>>280246741
Yeah.

>>280246741
Yup, only loads halfway for me

>>280246748
You wouldn't still be fascinated with it if everything was explained

>>280246540
Thanks you sir

>>280246741
Works on my machine.

>>280246748
There's not enough eldritch/malevolent living planets in fiction. Even if it's not something coming at you to eat you, the cosmic horror of looking at the stars and seeing something look right back at you is fun.

>>280246058
An argument could be made that the hobo is the MVP of the whole Ito verse.

>>280246473
This. There are thousands of moons, dwarf planets, centaurs, asteroids, etc. in the solar system alone. Any one of them could be inhabited by a self-sufficient colony. (Which would be necessary if they're real far out) Remina's approach into the system would completely fuck up the orbits of everything so the chance of something ending up passing by their shelter is at least nonzero in the next year.

>>280246792
I get that's the supposed to be the appeal of Eldritch abominations, but I get the itch of wanting a story that goes into autistic levels of mixing occultism while giving it the same level of level headedness of a nature documentary revolving a demon planet.

>>280246581
>Done. A hopeful ending? Or an even bigger horror than a swift death? You decide.
They'll somehow land on some magical isekai planet. It's slow-life from then on.
>Did you like the manga?
Yeah.
>Favorite character?
Obviously the bum or the main cultist.
>What could it have done better?
I don't even know. Too wild of a ride for me to even think about what ifs.
>What did you love and what did you hate?
The absolute balls to the wall insanity of everything. It went from 0-60 in just the first dozen pages and just escalated from there.
>Any lingering thoughts?
Power tier charts.
>See you tomorrow!
See ya.

>>280246133
Huh? He was with the group when they first crossed paths with the cult leader, wasn't he?

>>280246741
It wasn't working before, but it is now.

>>280246865
Remina's human civilization was advanced enough to already have a colony on mars, it's not impossible there are other survivors as well.

>>280246899
The original cultists were likely killed by the nuke

>>280246899
Idolfags are just THAT fucked up

>>280246581
Thanks, OP. I'm torn whether to say that it needed more chapters or was fine as it is, since with Uzumaki and Gyo it felt like it was dragging on at times. My favorite was the hobo, he was a real hero by the end.

>>280246873
>but I get the itch of wanting a story that goes into autistic levels of mixing occultism while giving it the same level of level headedness of a nature documentary revolving a demon planet.
No I get it.
https://youtu.be/cofrpjJa5pc
Something like this but for a demon planet that's alive

>>280246347
>>280246338
This is actually a good twist.

>>280246865
How can they become self-sufficient on a rock with no atmosphere and no ability to grow food? Whatever is creating their oxygen will also likely give out or need to be replaced eventually and there's no chance any of them would know how to do that.

>>280246967
Explains why the random hobo knew so much about physics

>>280225498
>>280229170

And somehow the g-forces involved haven't affected the survivors...

>>280246954
Yessss
I've dabbled in sci-fi literature here and there but I haven't found a story quite like it or even Ito's Remina.

>>280247042
You don't understand
There's a LOT of padding in there

>>280246967
I wouldn't call it good because it was extremely predictable, but it at least makes sense and has a setup unlike most Ito twists.

>>280246981
Idk, sci-fi shit man. They already had colonies on Mars and the Moon and people were driving flying cars like the fucking Jetsons. I'm sure they could figure something out.

>>280246822
>>280246748
I vaguely remember this being the plot of that old as hell 3D cartoon, Shadow Raiders. An evil planet was roaming around eating other planets, and at some point the main characters got propulsion engines strapped to their planets to run away from it. However, it was sci-fi, not horror or occult.

I just realized that Remina didn't eat Venus, Mercury or even the Sun.

>>280247254
Too spicy

>>280247254
You aren't supposed to eat mercury anon, that's how you get brain damage

>>280247309
no, that's the secret to immortality

>>280247309
Yes, but let's face it, Remina is a bit of a dummy. I don't think it would affect her all that much

We just witnessed billions of people die in fear

>>280247254
It went through the Solar System up to Earth. I assume it probably made its way over to the Sun and ate it too.

>uzumaki won
>remina won
>gyo lost
damn

>>280247254
Remina was about 10 times the diameter of Earth, roughly the size of Jupiter. The sun would still be huge in comparison.

>>280247402
Remina was eating stars

>>280246304
IT POOPED THEM OUT
THE FUCKING THING POOPED THEM OUT

>>280247334
This.

>>280247402
So there are lots of things Remains wouldn't be able to eat then. The sun is considered average size for a star. Then Remina would only be able to red dwarf stars, gas giants and planets like ours.

>>280247399
Gyo also won, the earth is completely fucked with a few immune survivors.

>>280246338
Who was this >>280245836 then?

>>280246581
Probably the most metal one so far, imagewise at least.
The sheer proportion of ICONIC pages makes it worth.

>>280247402
And Jupiter was eaten/sucked up in moments, just means the Sun lasts a little longer.

>>280247595
Could Remina eat a pulsar?

>>280247679
I hope it tries and cracks itself in half

>>280247556
He didn't even have the same name as his son. Dad was just coping hard

>>280247875
Yeah, that whole thing doesn't make sense since Dad and Mom didn't approve of him being an astronaut to begin with. It was all hysterics.

>>280246074
>no one can even open a fucking door without homeless-kun's help
can we stop pretending Remina was the MC?

>>280246581
Homeless guy is probably the biggest chad in any Ito story. Even Mitsumura is one of the better ones too.

>>280246193
rub a dub dub, thanks for the grub

could Remina eat itself

>>280248055
anon it was probably biometrics

>>280248201
If parallel realities are possible, then she could. Incidentally that could also mean they could make an army.

>survived (for a while at least)
>won the Reminabowl
>became an astronaut like he wanted
>inherited what's left of his family's property
Daisuke is the real winner of the story

>>280245623
Why did he even warn them.

>>280246369
I get that these are genuine fans who don't want to rape or kill her at the moment, but she's named after the fucking alien abomination that devoured their homeworld and doomed every other human being, even saying her name should be awkward.
Actually, Remina herself should probably want a namechange, daddy be damned.

>>280245980
ARE THOSE MOTHERFUCKING SPIRALS? AIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>280248547
I think daddy was damned pretty good actually. Maybe they're just normal people considering they weren't out with the cult looking for her. Actually, considering them surviving is a miracle all on it's own, they may even start worshiping her.

>>280248243
Yeah I see why now, but it just adds to him literally and figuratively carrying Remina for the past 3 chapters.

>>280245623
note the different font
chances are this gunslinger is american

>>280246581
i had a soft spot for that jetpack guy.
i also find interesting how ito's longer stories tend to have a small light of hope at the end. in uzumaki kirie and shuichi manage to defy the spiral, in gyo kaori gets rid of her stench and we know immune people are trying to figure out a solution and here the main cast survives and are left hoping for a miracle, but even at worst they are a remnant of earth for others to find, a sign that humanity existed as opposed to remina deleting them all

>>280246193
Well turns out torturing and and trying to kill a teenage girl won't stop remina from eating your planet

>>280248915
they didn't finish the job. real remina sacrifice has never been tried.

>>280246581
My favorite part is seeing the surface of Remina and the fates of those on it. Lots of really memorable stuff in this story but also lots I had forgot. Thank you for sharing OP. It has been fun reading an Ito apocalypse while my world is being shook up.

>>280246581
Remina in color adds another layer of sickening. Imagine the surface

How would Remina fair against the spiral curse? Would it just turn into a massive spiral? Or even a snail

>>280249181
It's perfectly safe

>>280246260
>>280246241
What will the monster do now? Eat stars and planets until the universe dies? Travel to another parallel universe and devour another Earth?

>>280249276
Until all idolfags are dead reminas quest must continue

>>280249161
>while my world is being shook up.

>>280245591
he's so cool

>>280246581
>Done. A hopeful ending? Or an even bigger horror than a swift death? You decide.
no
At best, they commit suicide when they are left without food, which is a much better end than the rest of humanity.
>Did you like the manga?
I loved it. Probably my favorite Ito long story. Much better than Gyo. I think Uzumaki is technically better, but I love Hellstar Remina's imagery too much to not have it in the first place.
Favorite character?
Remina the monster, a huge, monstrous planet that flies at the lightspeed and is beyond human understanding? Perfect.
If we're talking about human characters, then I really like the hobo.
>What did you love and what did you hate?
Remina playing in the earth was fun, as was everything that happened on its surface.
I didn't find the cult very interesting for long stretches.
If I were to change something it would be to see what happens on the surface of Remina, what were those monsters that we saw the silhouette of.
>Any lingering thoughts?
What will Remina do now? Will she stay in this universe and eat planets until the end of time? Or will she travel to an alternate universe and devour another Earth? Also, Remina shares the same mole in the same location as Tomie. Interesting.

>>280246581
Thanks, anonsito.

>>280246388
>>280246369
>Nuclear Bunker only contain 5 people
>6 people in it
So, who will become emergency food?

>>280246981
it is futuristic bunker
I expect it to contain at least ability to generate oxygen, in case of Nuclear Fallout where environment is unhabitable

>>280246017
I got real sad for a second. Ito got me. Can't keep the coolest guy in the story down.

>>280246581
Thanks anon
I liked the story, pretty weird though

>>280245591
Ho-bro is a real Ho-man being

>>280246094
Oh for goodness sake

>>280246133
What a loser. Nice twist, though.

>>280246466
>>280246440
>>280246426
>>280246414
>>280246388
I love the ending of Remina, it's like waking up from a long nightmare

>>280245809
This was a revenge killing.

>>280246338
Thought so when he knew how to get that door open. Great twist.

>>280246133
Idolfags, man.

>>280246581
Definitely a hopeful ending. I choose to believe that that miracle happens for them. I loved the art and imagery. Daisuke was the best character. He was so cool. I really liked this one. Thanks so much for posting.

>>280246581
It's still a fucked ending but these guys at least get the choice to end themselves on their own turns. That's a luxury in the Ito-verse not offered to a lot of people. Any people really.

>>280250222
Them surviving more than the year hadn't crossed my mind during my first read, but I hadn't been taking into account this takes place in the future. Like the other anons said, there's a possibility moon/mars people also made it out (with some of the colonization technology) and they all get together and make it to a new planet/moon.

Hobos are very strong...

>>280246581
Remina's probably my favorite of Ito's full volume stories. It's more action thriller than horror and the sheer scale makes it fun. I like how the mob in the sky >>280245582 now includes people from all over the world shouting in their own languages

>>280246581
Thanks OP
>Did you like the manga?
Yes
>Favorite character?
This one
>What could it have done better?
Remina playing more with the planet
>What did you love and what did you hate?
Loved the hobo, hated the idolfags
>Any lingering thoughts?
What taste have the Earth?

>>280246581
Loved it. It's like John Carpenter horror movie in a manga form with the ending.
Hobo is the obvious #1, second place is the non-Goda original cult leader, the costume is cool and his autism is endearing for someone so evil.
I would like to know more about Remina's ecology.

>>280245623
Could it be that they're right that killing Remina would save the planet?

>>280251247
Strange that Remina let Remina go if it was.

>>280246213
At last, TND

>>280246041
Who's in the team so far? How many are there?

>>280251364
No, that would be logical. It even seems that Remina purposely allowed Remina to survive so that it could eat the planet. This implies even more strongly that this is the case.
