@malagigi_encantatore Interesting catch! Ueda Ryouko is a much more prominent character in Aoi Hana, where she attends the same girls' school as one of the lead characters.

@nha9x1996 Officially, yes, this series seems to still be ongoing. The series is listed as still being serialized on Shimura's official website. But like you said, the most recent chapter (21) was released a while back, in April of 2019.

This chapter heavily references chapter 1. We recommend revisiting that chapter since characters can be difficult to keep up with in this series. The musical Saeko watches is linked here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elisabeth_(musical)

Shouldn't Aoi be 17 years old, not 18? The first few volumes (all taking place only 1 year ago in the story) would say that Aoi and Shusei were 16.

Yes, as one of my friends and editors put it, this series goes "full Shimura" almost right away. Aoi Hana started off as a very normal story structurally, but became more abstract and artistic as the series went on. Awajima is only on volume 2 and already jumps at random between people...

Fix: Volume 3 finally gives the reading for Onoda's full name. Sachie has been fixed to Yukie. @ngkn92 Yukie is the one in the hospital, Emi is visiting her.

@nasebein: Pretty much! Basically kanji carry meaning, so 美子 literally means "beauty" and "child," but leaving it in hiragana makes the meaning for "yoshi" more vague or up to interpretation. For instance, instead it could be 祥子, 欣子, 佳子, 淑子, or even more possibilities, with all the first kanji...

TL Note for those interested: Yoshiko is written with the kanji for beautiful child (美しい子), but the "beautiful" part was left in hiragana (よし子).

Yes. Aiming for weekly or biweekly releases.
