Evil Punpun be like: My loving and caring mother and father emotionally supported me throughout a stable childhood, and after meeting Aiko we married and lived happily ever after in Kagoshima.

Evidently there isn't a single morally upright character in this manga, they're all predators,liars and manipulators

It's a good series to point to for people who don't really understand how toxic relationships can end up. Punpun and Aiko, two hopeful youths with growing troubles, become broken adults and were absolutely NOT what the other needed at that point.
But because both wanted that same feeling they had in their optimistic youths, they ended up being in an absolute trainwreck of an ending climax. Aiko really needed someone who was stable to save her, Punpun needed someone to ground him and be his guide rails, it was like watching a car crash in slow motion the moment they met each other again.

Nah bro punpun got assaulted and his uncle didnt do anything about it bro

@ember2.031 9 months ago

43:25 To be clear Punpun was ASSAULTED, he was a vulnerable minor and the woman took advantage of that. Affairs require consent, and Punpun was visibly distressed and only caved after being pressured. He's a victim of sexual assault, Child Sexual Assault victim to be exact, so the term "affair" isn't correct here.

Punpun is like Bojack since both are stories that are depressing with how real they get and also horrific with how both the main characters go from relatable to utterly irredeemable monsters over the course of the story. And both gave me depression

idk why i feel the need to point out how bad i feel for Nanjo being worried about PunPun. While also being unaware of what he became and all the shit he did 😭

Its so unfortunate that Aiko and PunPun had to meet.

Aiko held PunPun in such high regard after they were separated when they were young, not knowing that he was slowly shaped into a monster in that time. She built him up to be her savior from her mom one day that when it finally happened, she was so thankful that she dismissed all the warnings that he was so much worse until it was too late.

I have read all of Berserk. Berserk is often considered one of the darkest stories, but I genuinely think it's less dark than this becasue it also shows the beautiful side of the world and humanity. Punpun just shows us what happens when you only focus on the dark parts of your mind.

I remember the thing that devastated me when I first read this was how when Midori and yuichi first got together, Midori was the most stable and kindest thing in punpuns life. That's why he was always around her, because out of all the adults in his life, she was the safest and most calm.

Then yuichi went on a bender, and in her despair she committed the worst act of her life to a child. An action that, I believe, permanently set punpuns fate in stone.

To me, Punpun’s god is very reminiscent of generational trauma. Being passed from the uncle to Punpun to Punpun’s daughter. That trauma will always trickle down. Dear god dear god tinkle hoy.

Now that i think about it shimisu saw his "mom" as a hand probably cuz he already forgot what she looked liked alive

@jjrussell_gallery 7 months ago

Well that was miserable.

Hard to believe a man wrote & illustrated all that. Hope he's alright.

@piffny6666 9 months ago

I feel like too many people completely dismiss the cult subplot when I find it really interesting as it parallels punpuns mentality while serving as a cautionary tale for what could be to come for people like punpun

WOW this whole manga was insane PunPun should have lowk just got a theripist

Sad that Aiko had no one that cared enough to try and get her out of her situation. I also never understood why Aiko didnt go to Punpun herself, or leave her step-mom herself when she became of age but I guess the step-mom did a horrifically good job of keeping her stockholmed.

crazy how many emotions fictional stories can shake up

@user5-o2h 5 months ago

From a biblical perspective, the character "God" in Goodnight Punpun behaves exactly like the biblical devil (Satan). While he carries the title of "God," his nature is purely destructive and mirrors the biblical "Adversary" who seeks to lead humans toward sin and despair.

In volume 9, there's a true story regarding a man being accused of being a thief. A woman claimed that he had stolen from her, which resulted in the man being tackled. He ended up dying in the end due to everything, while the woman was never caught
