the manga died with twice
man. in a way.
honestly i'd say it's less that it died with twice - i actually think that outside of hawks being a bit of a weak mirror for jin, his death was one of the most well-written and impactful parts of the story, paying proper tribute to jin's development and the core of who he is and what he believes.
where the manga died is when it failed to follow through on the fallout and implications of it all. to take one of, if not thee best, developed character to such a daring fuckin climax and then nothing? fuck all? hawks is just like well he was a nice guy sucks how things went. maybe i should call my mom. whatever dude your mom never should have baby trapped your dad.
A gift for @dcay I couldn’t get it out of my head when at work they were talking about the spinner cursor and you kept thinking of our Spinner.
