Sera's big moment at the end of this chapter is obviously very cool and heroic, but I can't help but think that taking on this role is going to be extremely unhealthy for her. It seems like Sera might be heading for a parallel to Nat at the start of the series where both of them destroy themselves trying to do everything alone, not letting their weakness show, and not considering their own personal well-being. Whether or not we actually get to see arc 2, and please god let that happen, I really hope this version keeps Ventfleur being completely destroyed. I really love how this series seems to tackle personal-responsibility vs heroism vs selfcare, and I think Ventfleur's destruction is the perfect way to coalese those themes: A great tragedy that they tried their hardest to prevent but failed, that in some sense was caused by their actions, but absolutely isn't their fault. These last couple chapters are probably my favourites since the offical serlization ended, and I'm so excited to see this arc come to head.
Thank you for the TL!
