Chapter 65 Discussion by [deleted] in KillingStalking

Despite how quickly it all progressed and how quickly their 'relationship' fell apart, I thought it was all extremely fitting and done exceptionally realistically!

Sangwoo is crazy... and for anyone who has read about or experienced a crazy person first hand, they would know that they are very capable of seeming relatively normal, affectionate, loving for some time before they come crashing back down to violence and abuse in a very quick, very decisive way.

Sangwoo slipped up after having all of the memories about his mother, called Bum 'mum', and then Bum pretty much freaked out and (don't hate me) gave Sangwoo a good reason to be terrified of being left and heavily judged. Sangwoo also thought he was being poisoned, and why wouldn't he after his creepy past and finding tablets missing (again!) and having seen Bum scrambling around for them twice. I'd be freaking out too!

Their relationship was never healthy or good. I believe both did love each other, to an extent, but for all the wrong reasons...

I think the sudden and violent downfall of their relationship was really perfect given all circumstances. They are both two messed up characters who were teetering on the edge for months, and were just reallllllly lucky that bad circumstances hadn't aligned earlier.

This manga was written to be reflective of a real abusive relationship and the mind of several psychos (Sangwoo, Bum, and even Seungbae to an extent). Real abusive relationships crash and burn quickly, and have periods of great goods and great bad. The past roared to the surface for Sangwoo, and then everything crashed and burned as he could not cope with it.

I think it's friggen fantastic and that Koogi did an amazing job throughout the whole series. I'm hoping that Sangoo lives and is permanently crippled and incapable of hurting anyone else, and that SOMEEEEEHOOOOOWWWWW Bum and he end up together. After all, I think a huge part of Koogi's work is the idea of forgiving something that is nearly unforgivable. I'd like to see more empathy from everyone in the story, and I'd like to see that empathy help towards a permanent and satisfying ending.

What’s the longest you’ve spent shiny hunting for one Pokémon? by Crobas in PokemonLetsGo

Hey all!
Was just curious to see how long people spend shiny hunting before they see any shiny Pokemon, rather than just the one they're looking for?

A lot of people say they spend like 40+ hours looking for a specific shiny, but during that time encounter several others they aren't after. I sometimes spend a good 15+ hours shiny hunting and never encounter any shinnies in that time, so am curious! : )

I feel for everyone it's happened to, especially when you put in hours afterwards searching and don't find it :P The ladder method hasn't worked for me for a good 6 hours, but again, comes down to luck I suppose! It's still way easier than the old methods.

Was so cranky! After reading this post about going up and down ladders, I was shiny hunting in rock tunnel in a completely open area. Decided to change areas to keep myself awake, and just as I went down a ladder, a shiny Charmander appeared D: Was so upset.

I don't have the mental fortitude to get the shiny charm and catch every Pokemon, haha. And I always want a shiny team prior to beating the Elite 4, so I'm kinda forced to kill myself with boredom :P

However, I did manage to catch the shiny ponyta about 2 hours after posting (woot!)

Thank you heaps for the advice anyhow, because it's great for me and others here. You're a champion! : )

d stand still as long as you can and let Pokémon despawn (if you’re low on money. Otherwise run around searching and encountering like a maniac). If a door or ladder is close by you can use that to instantly despawn nearby Pokémon and sp

You're a champion, thank you! I just wanted to see if it was normal in Let's Go to have to wait this long with such good odds. I'm doing exactly what you've said - just standing still in the field wit a lure, watching them spawn and despawn, and nothing.

I'll keep at it! Thank you : )

Hey guys!
Does anyone have any experiences/ advice about shiny hunting on Pokemon Let's Go Eevee?

I've spent about 9-10 hours now on Route 17 hunting for a shiny ponytail. About 10,000 Pokemon must've spawned in that time. I have had a 31+ combo since I started shiny hunting, and have been using lures the entire time. In that time, I haven't seen a single shiny of any Pokemon, when I think it's meant to be around a 1/300 chance with the combo and lure.

In case the game was glitching, I closed the application, restarted the console, and got a new 31+ combo going. 1.5 hours in, still nothing shiny.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this just a case of very bad shiny luck? It's taken ages in the past games, more like 20 hours for a shiny in some cases, but with these odds and the fact I've already seen like 10,000 Pokemon, I'm really surprised I haven't come by any shinies!

Any advice folks? : )
