Comment on ChapterOyasumi Punpun - Vol.4 Chapter 43

i still can't relate to this cr**. Punpun is a new level of stupid. That's the only explanation i got. 

cry about Aiko for years even tho all you needed to do was apologize. Finally have a chance to get back with Aiko and this idiot decides to do what again? where is the logic here Punpun? i'm sorry, I forgot you don't have a brain, you're a dumb bird. I know understand why he isn't drawn like a human. cause punpun ain't human, he's just an unrelatable idiot.

@Joe No one asked you to relate to Punpun. Punpun is his own person and thinks in a different way than you do ? Did you forget that he thought that Aiko hated him and that just the thought of her rejecting him would cause him a great amount of pain ? Not to mention that he used to be scared as sh** of Aiko killing him and that in their last interaction before now she was extremely cold to him which gave him another reason to be scared of rejection.
@Joe He's drawn as a bird because he's depicted as a flightless caricature bird, this shows a symbolic representation of his state of mind and the intention of the author to make the reader identify with a character. I agree with kashi
@Joe They are portrayed as a bird, but they don't consist of wings. It is because they didn't succeed in growing wings or at this point achiving freedom they deserved. They're stuck in their endless battles of depression and regret. They think of themselves as another species since they don't think they're human.
