Major Character Death Musings

[echoslam]

Yesterday I drank three cups of coffee and binge read about 100 chapters of a popular ongoing manga series. I hit a really big MCD, and it affected me a lot more than I expected. They weren't my favorite character, but they were a lynchpin of the central cast, and things definitely won't be the same without them. (My actual fave is presumably running around still alive but MIA).

I gotta admit I am having some "done with this" feelings about the series itself. The 50 or so chapters I've read since haven't landed for me at all. Something similar happened to me with

in Death Note and

Nobara

in Jujutsu Kaisen and well, I never did go back. The story just didn't seem meaningful to me anymore without them.

I don't want to give details because spoiling this death really will ruin the whole thing. But just...man. Feels like such a waste.
