This might be a silly question. But how do you suppose we should be counting our birthdays here?

I technically should be 19 now, I think.
But if it's Halloween, I'm still a bit away from my birthday, too.

Should I be 18 or 19?

...

And how have you dealt with that?

[anthropophagite]

Humans ghouls continuously hurt each other, unable to learn how to live with one another.

...

Which makes it impressive that you managed to survive this long.

[anthropophagite]

Ghouls can hide among humans easily. But humans have a governmental branch that hunts and deals with ghouls, too.

...

And how has that been going?

[anthropophagite]

Well, like I said, they just keep hurting each other.

[whatsamada]

There has to be a way, right?

To make sure that nobody hurts one another?

[anthropophagite]

It has always been like this. i don't know if either side are ready for such a thing.

[whatsamada]

It's still worth a try, right?

How will you know if nothing is done?

[anthropophagite]

It's nice to think like that but humans and ghouls have always existed side by side, all over the world.

The world doesn't change just because a few people want it to.

[ this is not a shounen manga, Ken! ]

[whatsamada]

I suppose not but it is still a thought.

If there's a way, then it is still worth a try.
