Gakkou Gurashi

Everything is going to be daijoubu.

She'll never die!

That Kurumi cover is so good.

That melancholic longing look is so pleasant to the eye.

I want them to be happy. Are they still happy?

Does this look like the face of happiness?

Happier than they've been in a while. Well, except Rii, but fuck Rii.

Gladly. Rii deserves the most happiness

Damn, this chapter really made me skip an heartbeat. I really wonder why i've grown so attached to Kurumi, never happened to me. Usually i don't care who live or die in a manga.

There are only 4 mysteries left in this manga.

1.Who is Randall Corp and are they enemies that highschool/college girls can go up against?
2.Will the college group defeat or cooperate with the other group to survive?
3.Will Kurumi eventually turn?
4.Is the rest of the world infected like that person trapped in the lab says it is.

I feel like Kuromi is probably developing an immunity and will end up becoming key to create an actual cure for the virus.

So, all the guys left in the manga got killed off. Truly becoming a yurifest.

The virus kills off everyone who isn't a girl and only spares the ones with lily potential.

Who was in the wrong here?

The guy who tried to murder an innocent, cute, clearly fully sentient girl.

Don't worry, I'll save everyone desu-wa!

The guy.
Kurumi even let herself being hit to make sure of his intention. That guy was seriously into killing her and probably even the other girls as well.

when will they kiss?

And i hope it stay that way. When you put a male character into a girly manga everyone start to want that guy to do everything and bitch about everytime is not in the spotlight. Many mangas like freezing teached me that.

...

Never, Kurumi is for Miki.

>Kurumi kissed the pink girl.
>Pink girl become zombie.
>Kurumi either forced to kill pink girl or Pink girl eat Kurumi while Kurumi crying.

hooray

She's already dead.

I just want her to become Wesker.

It'd be much more entertaining and different from the usual OH NO HE/SHE IS BIT drama. What I like about Gakkou Gurashi is how unusual it is, which is why the latest arc SUCKED. FUCKING SUCKED

Yuki is for Miki only.

On that note Kurumi/Miki makes no sense, also.

Seven minutes. Seven minutes is all I can spare to bother reading this shit.

So the author is going to let Kurumi keep her human consciousness for how long?

Please don't keep this bullshit plot device.

I want a bullshit plot device instead of a cliche tragedy

...

Was this just her delusion or is Kurumi really fine at the moment?

>Kurumi came to her
>not to hug, but to eat
>this is all Yuki's delusional death moments
>Rii or Miki later find her disembowled body or blood stained hat

>Was this just her delusion or is Kurumi really fine at the moment?
Note Yuuki wasn't wearing her hat when she was talking with Kurumi. I think that's hinting that it was all legit.

You mean pre-RE5 Wesker or that complete turd & character assassinated "Global Saturation" clown?

Wesker was great when he was in the shadows and didn't reveal his hands or plans, just smugly furthering his own agenda and then he turns into that forgettable assclown for "end boss".

Granted it's not much more you can expect of Capcom and their writing for REs after parasite spics and african javelin throwers but still he carried a legacy from psx era.

RE4 ideally, yeah.

But yeah man
>complaining about Capcom's writing
they have gotten worse, though

Yuki hasn't been delusional since she killed the shit out of that zombie just before graduation

Rii is the new delusional girl.

Everything will be fire.

You got point.

You don't think that losing Kurumi might trigger her delusions again?

I'm pretty sure getting disembowled and eaten by Kurumi would trigger her delusions of everything going happily.

Well yeah, Gears of Chris actually brought a tear to my eye when I got to the car chase part in RE6. Luckily the other campaigns were bit better.

more like everyone is going to be diejobu

>You don't think that losing Kurumi might trigger her delusions again?
No, because she decided to resolve herself.

Also the author is usually obvious when things are not what they seem. Not the case here, just another character rescue since this has been built up for a while.

Art of Yuki making Kurumi wear handcuffs, doggy collar and muzzle when?

I'm suspicious how Kurumi looks a lot better in this chapter than she did previously.

Will she just escort Yuki to RV and then run away?

>Will she just escort Yuki to RV and then run away?
She promised she wouldn't run away so no.

>That Mii-kun X Aki sempai
>That Krurmi x Yuki bonding
>Kurumi is losing her senses gradually
>Kurumi weilding the shovel again
Great chapter

It is puzzling why Kurumi is taking so long to turn.

Maybe the cure/vaccine she took chapters back is still in her system but losing strength. It's no longer curing her but prolonging the virus
So the cure/vaccine isn't actually a cure but a "temporary fix"

user, everyone already knew the serum was a temporary thing. is just surprised the effect has lasted this long.

At this point we should be thinking than maybe just won't turn at all. Maybe she really will become a sort of hybrid.

*she won't turn at all

So are they going to have sex before Kurumi loses all senses entirely and turns or what.

I'm happy shovel-chan is fine. Tits-senpai should drop dead already

Early on in the university arc Kurumi mysteriously performed superhuman feats, knocking aside a crossbow bolt in flight with her shovel. Her eyes looked strange as well.

Given this and how she hasn't turned I've figured she's something like, well, Wesker; a hybrid or something. There must be SOME "good" reason behind the original virus, right? Why not military application?

I think they should get into the RV and leave Rii behind.

God, the RV's going to be a wild ride
>No Rii means no more crazy in exchange for no more moral support
>Kurumi's time is slowly running out if she isn't a hybrid
>Yuki's seeing Meguni again
>If the evil college kids don't die in this arc then crazy mcbloodthirst might trail them

>Evil Americans developed the virus as bioweapons
>Grorious Nippon try to stop them

Yeah, a bunch of us theorized this way back and it still seems eminently plausible that it could go this way. Corps and govs are generally interested in money and power, not random destruction (if the latter was what they wanted they have way simpler and more effective ways to do it), while it's clear some experiment got way out of control or some attack happened they were expecting as a worst case there has to have been some point to developing it in the first place, some money to be made or power to be gained.

And super soldiers/general human enhancement for the elite/similar seems a good fit. In that context, even losing senses isn't necessarily a bad thing to someone wanting to create soldiers and didn't care about expendability, lack of pain would just let them go even harder before dying. So Kurumi might end up being a random lucky "success" or at least partial-success.

If that girl's theory about them all having partial natural resistance is true, then maybe they're also natural "candidates" for successful enhancement unlike the normalfag population that wipes instantly. If there really is any benefit or purpose to the whole mess, maybe it'd be to identify those in the population who have the natural compatibility.

That would be extra stupid. Americans have nukes and have used them on grorius nihon already they don't need some shitty and dangerous bioweapon. If this thing is airborne there's also basically no way it's not worldwide already. Even ignoring air and boat travel entirely, dust from a saharan sand storm or subasia fires or whatever already has no problem getting blown worldwide. And if it can infect mammals it can infect dolphins/whales which means the ocean is now full of zombie whales too or maybe in water those get insta-eaten by predatory fish.

No, this has "government/corporate attempt to make superhumans" written all over it. Or at best some sort of super miracle medical cure.

Last chapter, we learned that the girls are still around because they have immunity to the airborne form of the virus, but they shouldn't test their luck about resisting blood transmission as well.

Dollars to donuts, that was setting up Kurumi being the one-in-a-million who has resistance to both.

You guys are kinda embarassing.
No, she's not turning into a Nemesis project or something, she just happened to luckily deflect the bolt with ther shovel's metal head.
No, Kurumi has no "double resistance" at fuck all. She was clearly and obviously dying fast after Megumi's bite and it was only the vaccine shot that stopped it, temporarily.

The only thing that's happening here is the virus building up its strenght again, albeit slower than normal. Vaccine is losing, hence why Kurumi's slowly turning.

Here lies grimderp, he was never right.

That's not how vaccines or medicines in general work user. You're reading your own preferred result into it.

No.

I think the girls should just all kiss each other, that's will solve all problems.

Worth a shot. Bet those so-called scientists never tried that!

That's how they work, actually. Viruses have viral charges of varying strenghts and people can have subsequent later breakdowns of an illness when not completely cured. Which is what happened with Kurumi, just temporarily lowered and now it's getting back at her body once again.

Reading all this bullshit about "Super-Kurumi" or her "being immune to both!" is fucking embarassing.

I know, right? It's like these assholes are talking about a fictional story where zombies are real. Morons!

If you're going to write off obvious setup as throwaway dialogue and arbitrary random events, I suppose there's nothing I can do to stop you. An infected character in a world of slow zombies showing superhuman agility instead? Yeah, probably means nothing.

Which makes even more sense for me to be right, viruses mutating to resist the "cure" are amongst the clichee'st of cliches in these sorts of things.
The fact that Kurumi's skin symptoms never completely healed show how the virus never left her organism. It took some time, but now it's building up in strenght again and overcoming whatever faux immunity the serum was providing.

You're fucking embarrassing. Kurumi isn't even turning. Her senses are just becoming numb. She got scared because of that and thought she was gonna turn, but it didn't happen, and now no one knows when it's gonna happen, if at all.

>killing a carrier
>bad
She's arguably more dangerous than any of those generic walkers.

or not

you're ignoring the crossbow thing

It's simple foreshadowing, storytelling, and playing with expectations. Also it's less cliche to have her survive that to have her die (the thing that happens in most zombie fiction)

Furthermore it would backpedal on the hard fought accomplishment of curing her in the first place.

>little girls in a post apocalyptic world
>not of them have being raped yet
unrealistic as fuck

We never had any real example of "superhuman agility" other than that questionable scene.
What we DID HAVE was an example of another guy (the pilot) trying to use the vaccine but turning before he could. That's legiptimate foreshadowing, not your fanfictions about Wesker Kurumi.

Occam's Razor says that I'm right here and that Kurumi is just slowly losing to the virus like the pilot did.

Jesus, no. Viruses (and bacteria, and complex parasites) don't have "strengths" they have mutations that may increase or decrease their fitness in certain areas, and those mutations come through replication. If someone is successfully vaccinated then their immune system is primed to deal with that virus type and it's done with, a new type or combination that comes along is something new, but nothing old is left. Someone can only get a new infection.

A powerful anti-retroviral might reduce viral load while not eliminating all reservoirs if they can hide in certain hard to reach cell types, so eventually load will return without new doses of cocktail (this is how anti-HIV treatments go). That's not a vaccine though, and the returning virus is still the same as the old one so you can suppress it again with a new dose of anti virals/whatever magic drug it is.

So if it works like that they could just give Kurumi a fresh shot and she'll be fine for another few weeks/months/whatever. Since she's the only one they need to treat and most of the rest of the world appears dead they could just drive around to various schools and grab their emergency storage doses and keep her fine for years and years before running out.

The virus circulating in the zombie population may have significantly mutated so getting a bite is a bad idea, plus it represents a massive immediate load, PLUS since they're rotting meat it'll be full of other deadly bacteria and toxins which will kill you plenty easily all by themselves (assuming bleeding doesn't). Presumably that's why that medicine was packed with antibiotics too.

All this assuming of course it's not something weird like it obviously is, because zombies.

>Kurumi isn't even turning. Her senses are just becoming numb.
Yeah I'm sure dreaming about feasting on human flesh or being repeatedly ignored by zombies is no sign of turning

>we had one speculative scene
>versus my one speculative scene
Are you retarded?

So you're balidating my point here, Kurumi's "zombie virus load" is building up again and her body's losing to it.

Thanks, I guess?

Actually nevermind it's two scenes for me; since there's the whole "immunity is a factor" thing.

Nightmares are a sign of stress

being ignored by the zombies can easily be take as a "bonus" of being infected

>A powerful anti-retroviral might reduce viral load while not eliminating all reservoirs if they can hide in certain hard to reach cell types, so eventually load will return

And that's Kurumi, yes. It's quite obvious that the injection never really cured the virus, just stopped it for a while and now the shit's multiplying again in her organism.

You said "vaccine" and implied she was done with and will turn. When if it's just an antiviral treatment that needs to be ongoing once every few weeks/months all they have to do is give her a new dose each time and they can manage it indefinitely. It's not going to "lose strength". Hell, if it was a vaccine it'd be the OPPOSITE: every booster would mean she'd GAIN strength and be more resistant not less. Although booster normally are only needed over the course of years.

If it's actually vaccine based though like rabies then that's great news, because they can almost certainly cure her entirely and give her total resistance with a few more shots.

You dream about BEING EATEN by zombies, not eating people. You'd have to be quite dumb or baiting not to see the correlation between this and Kurumi's symptoms and previous bite.

>Girl scared of turning into a zombie has nightmare about turning into a zombie

Well, that clinches it.

She's getting symptoms, but they don't seem to be typical symptoms. Her physical ability is clearly not negatively affected like every other zombie, since she just vaulted a wall last chapter, and she currently appears to be in full control of her faculties, just scared.

"Vaccine" is obviously wrong here as a term, my point is that while the first shot fucked up the virus for a while now it's ramping up again, especially since its confirmed that this one can mutate.
Kurumi's done for.

But that's not what Kurumi is stressed about. She's worried that she'll turn and ruin everything, hence running away, not of dying, which she'd already convinced herself was necessary.

>You dream about BEING EATEN by zombies, not eating people.
If you're aware that you're infected, it's quite natural to dream that you're eating people. Dreams feed on your fears after all, and right now Kurumi's greatest fear is that she might turn any day.

Do you retards still think HIV is a fatal thing rather then just a condition to be managed these days as long as you're rich? If it's a treatment then that's great, they're set. Each box had multiple doses and they only have one person to treat, in fact that very person can by definition ignore zombies! So it's not even a fight, they just drive to a school or government office or whatever, then they can just fucking wait outside while Kurumi walks right in to the shelter and grabs the medicine. Everyone else can play cards or whatever, no risk. They can gather hundreds of doses in no time, then fuck off to the countryside and spend the next decade or whatever together. Clear out some nice onsen or something, fence off a nice little farm. Go grab some solar panels and shit.

So we agree that she's turning, good.

It's a zombie virus kiddo. Kinda worse of an illness than HIV if you ask me.

No, we agree she's scared of turning and that's more than enough to cause a nightmare about it.

What about the million symptoms we've seen so far, or her talk with Miki about being about to turn?
I don't see myself ignoring them just because they don't fit with your fanfic I'm afraid.

If it's a magic virus then she'll gain magic resistance and super powers. If it's a normal but nasty virus then normal treatment regimes will work too. Sorry grimfags.

>What about the million symptoms
Like being cold to the touch or getting ignored by the zombies? She's being like that for ages.

>her talk with Miki about being about to turn?
She's scared. We already went over that.

we've seen so far, or her talk with Miki about being about to turn?

>What about the million symptoms we've seen so far
None of which have included any form of mental degradation; she's cold and numb, but hasn't started to approach zombification either physically or mentally. She's clearly just as possessed of herself this chapter as she ever was.

>or her talk with Miki about being about to turn
Is there any point in me continuing to point out the difference between being scared of something and that something being true, or will you just keep pretending not to notice?

>my senses are fading

Boy, the denial is strong here. It's even kinda insulting to Kurumi since you're ignoring her plight in favour of your fanfics.

>muh ebin edgy headcanon
lol!

And then she turns around, rescues Yuki and has a friendly conversation - with the hat off, just to drive home that it's not another delusion.

>I don't want my waifu to die
>so I'll ignore all signs and subtexts and dialogues about her impending turning because they don't fit *my* narrative

I guess that's a "no" to my question.

>Zombie manga
>People bit by zombies turn into zombies
>Character is bit by a zombie
>She is slowly turning into a zombie
>Is now talking about how she's losing herself

>MUH EDGE
