I cheered when Tosaki keeled over. What a piece of shit. His girlfriend (had she ever recovered) would have ditched his ass anyway for the inhumane shit he's done. Satou-chan should have a magical girl spin-off.

He's a gamer, though. You'd think this place would appreciate him more.

Would be fair to say that Ajin is a story about an autistic sociopath fighting a bonafide psycopath?

Kei is not a sociopath. Mommy simply trained him for efficiency.

I feel like pre swap the writer wanted to develop him in that direction and then as the artist got thrown to the wolves, told to write the story himself and instantly made the whole series popular, those undertones vanished quietly and he was a fairly normal protag (with the focus on the batshit insane antagonist that hard carried the Manga)

Ooh, jeez. When does that happen? I'm on chapter 20, so I'll hop off at the turning point.

I think there would be just a psychopath overload if more characters were psychopaths. Nobody wants to read a manga where 50% of characters are psycho villains and the other 50% their enablers or woobiefied collateral damage.

The turning point was like chapter 5, dumbass, and the only good part from there was the in-universe experimental black ghost fight. "Neither one of us really understands how the hell these things fight" is pretty good. Everything else about "we live in a society" was bad schlock

11 chapters. And that's still longer than he said it would be.

dude, what are you on about
he continues to be a selfish turbo-rationalist
other characters comment on it and it's why his ghost disobeys him
underneath that he still has humanity, but shows it in the most tsundere ways imaginable
and he's still pretty self-centred all in all
definitely not a goody-two-shoes protagonist

All the amazing side characters that get killed with no fanfare.

Pic rel was the best side character and didn't get killed. IIRC only a few die overall, so unless you didn't like most of the side characters, that wasn't true at all.

Most definitely inspired by him. Ajin is packed with western references.

if you're immortal, absolutely. weight/muscle gain/loss stays the same between lives, but fatigue doesn't. work out until the brink of exhaustion, kill yourself, repeat.
