No spoiler review! This is one of our favourite manga ever! After looking back and letting it sit for while, I just found it so depressing, might be hard for some people but it's worth it. I might do another review including spoilers so I can go in depth with the story and characters such as 'God' because they were so interesting! If you only watch anime, give this manga a try, it will turn you into a reader so quickly and let us know what you thought! Alsooo if you know any manga/anime like this let us know we'll try check it and/or review it!

Aiko's telling Pun Pun she will kill him is just something I think her own abusive mother said directly to her. Probably several times. She may be the most heartbreaking monster I've ever encountered in any type of media. God, i wish PunPun had just taken her straight to the police when she told him of the abuse instead of confronting the mother!

Yes, Aiko's story is the most tragic one. Her entire life was torment and she died all alone completely forgotten by everyone. The little paper wishing "May you never forget me" makes me cry instantly when I see it.

Well said both of you. The amount of confusion and hurt I felt coming to the realization of what aiko has been thru. I even felt guilty cause at one point I really disliked her. And then these two comments further her sad tale even more. She acquired happiness and that’s all I can be thankful that she got. As for pun pun I hope he shares her story with that kid and uncle. I know uncle and him will bond over their tragic tale. Also, haruma can tell him about the truth of his father. I hope they all really shed light upon eachother and stop with the secrecy with the past. Guess there’s a lot of hope and babbling here but in some way that’s life man. Good vibrations friends

I understand the sentiment but being “broken” isn’t a thing. “Broken” people are people with mental disorders that go untreated. The characters were horribly depressed, bipolar, traumatized, etc. They never got the help they needed. Punpun himself is the poster child of depression. He exhibits every sign of it. Thats why me, and a lot of other people relate to him. You can have a difficult childhood and do just fine, although with difficulties.

I understand what you mean... getting help is really good and everyone needs it. Thats the thing with a lot of depressed people now a days is they try to get help, they try to find people they can open up to, but sometimes they never get the answer they need or its just not enough and they still cant keep going and usually you know "end" themselves. Thats where "broken" people have such a hard time because they have been hurt in their past, they have had the worst experiences and it ends up burdening them for the rest of their lives that it becomes a thought in the back of their minds where it constantly destroys them eating them up. The story of Punpun is showing how "living is harder than dying" or "How the broken can never be fixed" it breaks them entirely, the person's pride, happniess, trust, and even their source of never giving up. Ive been hurt, destroyed, betrayed, and felt like a worthless piece of shit and so has everyone but having depression is somewhat different from a person being burdened by their past and constantly reminded of those moments.I guess you can say "traumatize" but even that isnt really fitting but to call it a mental disorder is a bit of an outrageous thing to say. Being "broken" isnt necessarily a disorder its a thing and I dont know what youve been through in your life but i hope the way i word this can change your standpoint/view on the matter. but i think saying people who are untreated is a better word. People like us or everyone in general opening up is hard because of how sad it can be and whether that person cares for what you say or not. That's where it'll never get healed but for us "living" is sometimes the only choice whether it be for others or waiting for that someone who does care enough....

punpun didnt kill his god. His god was his negative thoughts, you dont get rid of that by stabbing yourself in the eye. He didnt overcome his trauma. In fact he was left dependent on someone who was exactly like his mother in the end. Someone who took great pleasure in keeping him beneath her. Theres some argument this was the worst possible ending for him, as living is more difficult then death.

I think it should be interpreted this way: The broken can never be happy, but that doesn't mean the broken can never be fixed ( and then figure out how to be happy).

I’m on chapter 98 so far I related to pun pun so much at the start my only gripe is that pun pun isn’t likeable.i know its because of his past experiences that has shaped him to become the guy he is by this point.but the mangaka obviously wants you to sympathise with him but you can’t empathise with him because he is that unlikeable.and they keep beating into our heads that his life is terrible,but like what Sachi and his uncle said,he has a lot more free will than you think.i feel like he blamed his misfortune on everyone else,to the point that you can’t Say that Punpun is kind and generous.i also feel like they should of showed his high moments in life as we to make his downfall that much more tragic.cause bashing it into our heads that life is shit all life is shit isn’t that great of a concept too keep the reader interested sometimes. I feel like the point I’ve gotten in the series is pretty meh. But I will keep on reading to see if it gets better again. I’m not saying it’s not good it’s really good it’s just a few things that’s bugging me But I relate to these characters sooo much Btw the cult thing I’ve never found a meaning to that,I always just skipped those bits

SPOILER ALERT so I read it for me personally I have this habit of completely empathising with other people's pain, real or fictional this is considered one of the most depressing manga of all time so Idk why but I wanted to feel it fully and i regret ever doing so. Because at "THAT" scene i just froze and kept reading but as i kept reading it for a while i started grasping the gravity of the situation and cried bit by bit All i can say is this is a very harsh but realistic example of bad/abusive parenting pun pun couldn't make a smarter decision thanks to his broken family not teaching him to do so and also himself for not learning from past misdeeds. But everyone around him just assumed he was fine and even after then Aiko's situation was much worse comparatively No one not even sachi considered to reach out to him about his past failures and what to learn from them untill the inevitability The only positive thing i can say right now for the message of this manga is that When you're at your lowest point in life, just don't give it in, cuz There will always be a choice better than ending your life .

Goodnight Punpun is the only manga that truly understands what it's like to be broken in an as equally broken world. There are a few that come close... kinda... but never as close. I both needed this manga and needed to stay as far away from it as possible. It validates you. It understands you. But without the proper tools to get better it will only reinforce your negative way of thinking and feeling, and possibly traumatize you for life in the process.

(no spoilers as such but you're better off only reading this if you've read it all🙏) I appreciate your views of the show and how it should be relatable regardless of ones place in life, I feel the same. However I don't think punpun and Aiko understood each other all that well actually...I think that because of the intense emotions between them they just strongly felt that they did, emotions are like fire. They can light the way or burn down a house depending on how willing we are to confront them and see the way forward...in the case of punpun and Aiko, I think they ended up letting those emotions burn fiercely until they were reduced to ash...in my humble opinion, I think Sachi was the antithesis to Aiko. Sachi and punpun were actually friends, not just "destined person's" that never truly confronted their issues with each other or themselves...Sachi and Punpun's friendship went through stages, stumbling along at times but progressing all the same. And while it was clear at some point that Sachi never truly understood him either, the difference is this: she acknowledged it and made an effort to get to truly know him through the eyes of others.

damnnnn :(( You might not want to watch this one yet but it's AMAZING

Honestly this looks fucking boring. It’s just desperately grasping at shocking, painful or dramatic events which could happen to people in their real lives, seems like a plotless/meaningless drama grab. Nobody can ever experience happiness. Everyone experiences trauma. It’s just dramatising all the little things that people go through which tend to be the ones causing pain (death, addiction, abuse, ect.) to the point where it’s oversaturated with characters who all have individual reasons to be unhappy (duh, humanity) to the point where not a single one of them is unique, pityable or worth caring about. In real life if someone shares their main trauma with you, or one that hurt them so badly they don’t usually talk about it, it’s very dramatic and sparks a lot of interest because that’s unusual. That’s how tactful placement of backstory is successful in most media, it’s shocking and explains their character. If the whole character of every person is being hurt by a thing (yknow, like everyone else on the fucking planet) and they have no development outside of ‘this person is one of the broken ones and soon you’ll find out why they’re broken, wow’ it becomes predictable and no part of the plot or cast will be interesting or spark any emotion. Stating that life is shit for everyone in different ways doesn’t warrant a whole manga. Maybe a half-size volume of cute character summaries but how anyone actually enjoyed this as an extended story is beyond me.

I want to thank you for sharing your views and giving your reasons to why you think that way, I really appreciate it. Some people might feel that it dramatises the smaller things that people go through I get that, but it is so much more than that, the only thing I can say is to try to give it a read and see why it's not as predictable and boring as you would think I missed out a lot of deeper pages of content to not ruin the story and because it would probably get rated 'inappropriate' or mature by youtube as it can get pretty twisted. I think for me and some people here, the life of punpun, his family, friends etc connected with us deeply. I felt like I was reliving my life through punpun by going deeper and deeper in the rabbit hole even though I've been through a dark hole and probably you have too? I've been told that this manga was eye opening and that was exactly why I wanted to make this review. For others with a much darkerrr outlook on life in general I can understand why it would seem boring too and maybe something like solanin and nijigahara holograph will connect more. If you do finish punpun please come back to this comment and we'll speak on it more, even if you still dislike it Thankyou!

Spoiler alert!! I thought PunPun's face would be revealed in the end, and when it didn't, I looked it up, and I really can't describe it, it feels, weird, and unfamiliar, he also looks creepy, I know it isn't his actual face, but I would guess it's pretty close, the long hair is shown when he kills Aiko's mom, and the entire bottom half is shown when one of Sachi's drawings starts talking to PunPun, we can also guess that that was Sachi's drawing of PunPun because she's shown sleeping next to it, which would mean that the drawing talking to PunPun was just him talking to himself, he just looks so fucking creepy, I don't know why...

There is no such thing as being "broken" unless you are in an asylum smearing shit on the wall with no medicine being able to keep you lucid. Punpun wasn't broken, he was just damaged, and he could have found happiness if he'd made different choices. If he had gone to a psychiatrist for help with his obvious depression and antisocial tendencies and had distanced himself from the toxic people in his life, it would have been possible for him to find some sense of normality and content. That's why i bristle when people are so quick to call themselves broken. It's a defeatist mindset.

(don't read this if you haven't read it. Minor spoiler) I must say, I thought the title would be more of a clickbait title leading to a not so obvious conclusion other than that the broken can never be happy....that said. I disagree with the conclusion that the broken can never be happy. Imo oyasumi punpun highlights that brokenness exists in us all, in various shapes and forms and for various reasons or circumstances, some within our control and some outside of it. So there are no broken people and unbroken people really, just human beings all with our own cracks to fill. I also don't think that happiness can only be found after completely being sufficient on one's own. I think that goes against our interdependent nature as humans. I believe more in a healthy balance between self sufficiency and interdependence. Heck, take Punpun for example...if there's a character that told himself many times over that he'd be 'fine' on his own or that he 'didn't want to be a bother to others,' it was him. How different would the story have been if he just leaned on or sought help from those that genuinely cared for him a bit more, because imperfect though they were, we readers can testify that there were characters that cared about him enough to go out of their way for him in a genuine way (I COMPLETELY EXCLUDE HIS UNCLE'S GIRLFRIEND FROM THE LIST OF SUCH CHARACTERS, IF YOU'VE READ IT YOU KNOW WHY, I THINK WHAT SHE DID GREATLY WORSENED ALOT OF THE SUFFERING PUNPUN HAD TO GO THROUGH...).
