Our parenting battle is just getting started, for real this time! I think.

The jokes are not funny and the "emotional" moments feel forced.
Also the plot really goes nowhere. I don't know wether the wants to make this manga a family drama or a super hero manga. At this rate it's probably the first one but I really don't like any of the characters.

so, there wasn't a timeskip... then what the fuck was the point of getting to hear the baby's thoughts from the future last chapter?

>Whatever she's made of now, it's tough stuff that won't be scratched by small debris
Just cut off any sense of danger from that, it's not like the last chapter that problem was the main focus and the source of conflict

>then what the fuck was the point of…
Welcome to Shinkai’s wild ride, where events, characters, and motive are all driven by Shinkai’s shallow attempt to bullshit his way into his one-trick emotional moments rather than logic.

What how? Because he's not being drained out of his life 24/7? I do have a Nephew who is fairly needy, and wants things to play in his own way, so I guess the baby is just super selfish already thanks to it's powers?

Would've been a nicer page if their relationship wasn't a chapter long.

End of chapter.
Death by psychic baby would be an interesting way to end the series.

looking forward to getting a few page flashback of their relationship every chapter or two, that sounds really fun

Maybe I'm imagining it but the text bubbles really make the panels look claustrophobic at times. It doesn't happen on every page, but it's still often enough to be distracting.

>my child only smiles when he causes property damage, so let's just leave him to it
>it would be selfish of me to place any restrictions on my superpowered son
>even if he fucking murders me
Good parenting. I can see why this man is the only one in the world capable of raising a responsible hero.

I feel like this chapter could have been split into 2 chapters, but then in jump you can't afford to go slow at the start, but maybe he could have split this chapter anyway if he hadn't wasted time on the pointless chapter 2

>No you dumb bitch, I just don't want you to get dragged into some weird shit thanks to you showing off for my sake
