Chapter 39 - Spotlight #46: Stalker x Stalker (MMM#7)

Have you ever felt like you were madly in love with your other half? Well, given my main demographic probably not, but still, the question stands. Because if you want a definitive answer, then you'll just have to see me shine a light on this eerie story: Stalker x Stalker

Artist

This time we are returning to Princess Hinghoi for a final time.

Summary

Junko and Yukio are two incredible young yandere who is hopelessly in love with each other! With their love so eternal and perfect, that everyone else's lives are increasingly temporary.

Characters

Junko: When it comes to the concept of love, Junko has a pretty odd description of it. Out of the 2, she is arguably the most aggressive and least social. Though this isn't a surprise given her father is also a possessive killer in his own right.

Yukio: A young boy who is equally obsessive Yukio is willing to kill anyone who gets in the way of her happiness.

Overview

Overall this series is pretty okay; the jokes kind of write themselves for most chapters, but the series does mix up the formula a little bit with other recurring characters and future storylines, which puts me to talk about my feelings on the yandere genre. While I do kind of like the psycho or delinquent characters in media (Jotaro in JJBA and Karma in Assassination Classroom comes to mind), I never really liked it when people state they want a yandere as a partner. Of course, the less serious interpretations are fine with me, but direr interpretations kind of make me want to retch a bit. I've never had a girlfriend myself, but I do know that love is not all hot sex and rainbows. It takes commitment, consent, and communication all things that a yandere lack. It honestly kind of worries me how much media subverts abusive and messed up relationships, and I hope that most of you will be able to tell the difference.

Epilogue

That's pretty much all I have to say on Stalker x Stalker. I think it's a fun webtoon with some serious intensity to it that will simply grow with time. And with that out of the way, I'll be talking about the final webtoon that will close off MMM!
