20th Century Boys Chapter 169 Discussion

We all witnessed the original friend get shot and Otcho and probably a coroner would've confirmed his death before putting him in a fucking casket. Besides, this friend is acting weird and also addressing his wife as "the holy mother".  we also didn't get to see what happened to that #13 dude.

"And the world fell into ruin"



such an amazing way to end the chapter and volume on my life

The Friend seems to be acting different, I think he is not the real Friend.

this feels like a "bad ending" from a visual novel



---------------



breathtaking. one of the best scenes

Wow Friend is some kind of genius..

poetic ends for the book 15th!!!

This would be so effed but what if Kenji is still alive and he is posing as a Friend double? Every time I see these songs being played or sung by people it makes me feel like the thing that was a big part of Kenji - music - is being alluded to us the reader to create that juicy build-up for him... I am probably just talking out of my ass though lmfao

What a way to end things! Some excellent panels in this chapter! This seems to be the end of the volume 15.

Absolutely fascinating. 'Friend' is the protagonist of what's happening... Manjoume said. Certainly, what a character Friend is. 

He won... Everything happens as he wants.

I think it's someone else

What's the point of doing all that if you're gonna kill everyone anyway

Manjome realizes he is not the main character... just before Friend achieves divinity. And the world as we knew it ended.



Friend's "God" panel is beautiful.



Absolutely incredible
