Just read through volumes 11 to 13 and damn I didn't think he could beat eating his own semen but that scene was gruesome as fuck. Had me cringing from start to finish. 2 more volumes to go right?

Ugh I could barely get through
! the self-trepanation. Still awesome though. Weirdly enough though, I still think this is one of the more beautiful stories I've ever read.

Yessssssss
Time to catch up on this series, GO!

What? 2 more volume then it ends? Then the girl IS his old gf after all. And I hope finally they show their old faces. And the msytery of the egg guy should be solved too.

Is this series being sold anywhere in English? I feel I ought to pay my respects.

Heh, I've had the very same thought yesterday and am now bidding on the first 9 volumes on eBay.
Unfortunately I only found German ones … but I didn't really bother to continue searching after I found those. -
Girls and boys.
It might have taken a while. But. Illuminati Manga finally brings us two last volumes of Homunculus! Now hurry off to their irc channel and download these 600 sweet, sweet, twisted pages.
And don't tell me you don't know how to download from irc because I won't be having none of this manga reader nonsense.

! That was a fucking stupid ending.
-
That ending…
[hide]
[hide]Up until the end, I kept having conflicting thoughts on what was to come. Will our protagonist get gunned down by the mob? Will he actually find the truth he seeks? Will we learn a little bit about ourselves on the journey? Then we got 14 pages of a dude fucking himself.[/hide][/hide]

I love the feeling of confusion and adrenaline I get from reading this manga. It's quite unlike anything I've ever read.. I'm still trying to wrap my head around that ending.
-
It was a stupid ending. Just stupid. I don't presume too much on this series and always give it some leeway with the psychoanalysis but this was just…ugh. How did the story devolve so much from a journey of self-discovery into...that?
But I'll be lying if I said a part of me didn't like it based purely on the WTF factor. But at the same time, I have to stop taking it seriously as a manga that actually wants to talk about complex issues and just this visceral, guilty pleasure trip.

Damn, I didn't keep up after vol 11. Got a lot of reading to do to get to this ending everyone doesn't like.
-
What the fuck was that?
Did he really just bang himself and realize everyone is like him?
-
Iam bit late with reading it finally to the end but i don`t dislike the ending afterall as much as you guys do.
In the end he found out, that everyone is just like him, which he in a way couldn
t handle, because he keeped searching for another "the better" answer.(see all the new holes in his head at the end) Thinking to have a "key" or an advantage against others lead him to believe that he would get more insight in something a person never will be able to explain..the human mind. You can expalin how thinks are working but nobody will be able to give exactly a view of yourself as good as you could(how should that be possible) He searched for someone who could look at him, but the answer was that everyone is like him which wasn
t satisfying.Nanako seemed to see his true face, but that wasn
t the case..he thought so because she was the only one(not even his father) who accepted his older self in the first place. He didn
t understand that a person is never able to understand or see someone for real and so he wanted to show her his new "key" to look at thiungs which resulted in her dead(most likely)
He wasn`t able to understand that in the past she was just able to like him without a "key" which resulted in his madness. -
Oh wow I just noticed that this was finished.
I mostly liked the ending. Anything with that much voluntary head-drilling should probably end in literal madness imo.
-
Yay, it's finished. Need to get to reading it.
-
I finally finished this last month (mid to late). The ending just left me staring at the page wondering what the hell just happened, especially after reading the part with him and Nanako at the hotel. Left me with a very odd sense of emptiness..

I just saw this thread pop-up a week or so ago and saw that manga is from writer/maker of Ichi the Killer.
I just finished it and i liked it.Its was better then Ichi.I also liked the ending and it was foreshadowed when he
! drilled the second hole into his skull.
