      It f**kn sucks. Should’ve went with something closer the fancy outfits Taylor Swift wears. A sequin dress would’ve been alright.

      Get over it, its either for adult or kids. If the artist wants to draw it that way then let him/her be. It’s not like u’re the one making the art or story.

        Yes, the author can do whatever he wants with his story, that doesn’t make it any less weird and doesn’t invalidate criticism of any kind.

        I also feel like for Rin, it’s especially disrespectful because of her backstory. One of the main points was that she was being forced to do adult stuff at a young age, forced to grow up. Putting her in a bikini and being sexualized is putting her, a 15-year-old, in an adult situation. (I also get that Japan has different standards of what is “adult” or what is acceptable. I’m just saying how this comes across from my point of view.) I know it’s a small thing and doesn’t completely ruin her character, and others will see it differently, but to me, it feels hypocritical. Again, that’s just my view on it.

        I really hope that one day, the practice of sexualizing underage characters in media can stop. Wishful thinking, I know, but I can still hope for it.

          Rin is 17! But your point still stands.

          You forgot this is a Shonen/Seinen manga. Its already a given fan service will be included. Seiko is fan service, Momo in undies in multiple chapters, the main plot is Okarun loosing his balls. Yokai and UFO stories always has included sexual innuendos in them. The main plot is already a dirty joke and you just noticed it? Its just pictures and stories about a fictional world with close to real life situations and tragedies. You might end up going crazy if you can’t even differentiate fiction from reality.

          Its a story, you either read it or don’t read it, its not that complicated.

            “I really hope that one day, the practice of sexualizing underage characters in media can stop. Wishful thinking, I know, but I can still hope for it.”

            If you actually used your eyes that were given to you in your miserable ass birth, then you’d know that he meant all those things too. The fact that sexualizing minors have become normal bewilders me. Plus Seiko is an adult, it’s fine for her to be sexualized, not saying people should do it, but she’s over 18.

            The lengths you dumbasses go to try and defend CP is actually preposterous. If things are ‘just pictures’ then why is being charged with having CP on your person a crime? The only reason things like this are overlooked is because they’re cartoons and meant to be jokes. As if that’s any reason.

            “The fact that sexualizing minors have become normal bewilders me. Plus Seiko is an adult, it’s fine for her to be sexualized, not saying people should do it, but she’s over 18.” It shouldn’t. It’s has a long long history if you think about ideas about marriage and when a women was considered old enough to marry. I think we think a lot more about it (maybe actually idk) then we use to and it’s happening less and less I hope. If you’ve never read it Lolita is a really good read, it’s all from the professors perspective, but Nobakov slips in every now and then these little moments that give you perspective on how dark it is. I also think artist like to draw bodies, a great place to showcase skills, but I hate that so much of manga and media is orientated around highschoolers. It really takes me out of it personally when yeah s**t like this happens.

            Nah, y’all are wrong. This is actually beautifully lore-accurate. Remember that Mai’s spirit/yokai is the one that’s manipulating what Rin wears, and Mai always had a knack for “idol” outfits. Since Kawa mf is the one that became “part of” or incorporated into Rin, her outfit looks like that. Mai always wanted to please the crowd, and that’s what her spirit continues to do.

      Yeah it’s a bit unfortunate but it’s turtle themed and I think the point is to push Rin to be more confident and get out of her comfort zone

      Yeah…. “Kids” they are getting killed and aliens are even trying to r*pe them💀 and ur caring about the dress??
      The guy’s balls are the main thing of this manga so it’s actually not for kids. And what’s wrong with the outfit. It’s not that bad

      Honestly needs like 2000% more fan service that’s the only thing missing here. Have the bikini blow off thus unlocking her full powers.

      there would’ve still been a better way to draw an outfit similar to this style but with more clothes bro this is probably just fan service for the creepy people

    I love this manga but this mangaka is weird for doing this stuff to kids. I mean, plot is good, funny, and makes you keep reading it but after some times later -at this point we saw main characters underwear more than handful of times- readers getting seeing main characters -let me remind you, they are all still minors even they are 17- naked/half naked gets weirder and weirder.

    Why y’all fighting? Does the author give a f**k. No? Alright then. Get a move on. If you people don’t like the plot and be a karen, then don’t read it or watch it. If it’s not your cup of tea, then ignore it and move along to find another manga suitable to your taste. If you’re concerned about the characters, please keep in mind that it’s the authors to decide how the story goes, how they imagine it to be, and how they want it to be keep on flowing.
