[Kirintei] Mina's Offline-Meeting

All board the crazy train; destination: Yandereville. It's time for some Kirintei!

A guy is waiting to meet up with some people he met online on "bixi"--where he draws an amateur web manga--but one after the other, they all cancel at the last minute. The only one who shows up in the end is a girl called Mina. After dinner and a short train ride, she suddenly confesses to him, and they both end up in his home. A bit forward, but surely nothing bad can come from this, right?

There's a lost-in-translation pun in the title: "mina" means "everyone," so you're led to believe there's going to be an offline-meeting with several people--which the protagonist probably though as well--but Mina is in fact someone's name.

A perfectly normal message from a girl you just met earlier today

  3. Nothing like a bit yandere taste to keep a day's meal perfectly balanced. Unfortunately, it was the lead guy the one that got eaten.

  4. Hell. Yes. Kirintei does yandere right. Focus on the crazy, not the violence.

  7. I'd have guessed bixi was supposed to be mixi.

    Yandere indeed. And it's fairly well-centered, so it's useful too. It's good to illustrate a concept so it doesn't become a confused clusterfuck over time like "moe".

  8. Pixiv was the first thing that popped up in my head when they talked about manga and whatnot, but if there's something similar called mixi, you're probably right.

  9. Mixi requires a cell phone # to register. That's why she has all those phones.

  10. Oh. Well, then things make more sense. I was wondering why she needed a separate phone for each account.

    I changed the link in the post!
