Sensei: "I'm gonna flex my peaceful childhood to my student who struggles with divorce."
Joking aside, I'm glad someone picked this manga up.

 

[Churkey]

Of course how things start shape you, and what you believe shape you.
But accepting differences and normalizing them is how we get into a peaceful period.
Get through the rough initial period to learn that despite differences, they're still human. Just like anyone else.

Thanks for translating!

My parents lived well together until my dad passed away, so I never experienced anything like this. But my cousins did. My uncle was a very difficult person, and my aunt was not very different. My cousins grew up okay, but during their teenage years they often got into fights. Even if they deny it, it is clear to me that they were affected by their parents’ situation.

I can't say I agree with the message of this chapter, because at the end of the day these people are creating nonexisting problems because of what really is their own narrow-mindedness.

Wait, I think I read it too fast and didn't get the message. Is it "You need to talk about changes in your life", or something like that?

This is how I interpreted the chapter’s core message:

“Feeling pity for someone” isn’t usually meant as an attack, but it can still come across as humiliating because it puts the other person “below” you.

Takayanagi-sensei reframes it as:

• People’s reactions, sensitivities, and what they find “unbearable” differ, because everyone grows up with different experiences. So it isn’t strange if the same situation triggers different feelings in different people.
• Even if Tsuji wants nothing to change after his parents’ divorce, something will change regardless. The real task is learning to “make peace with it” and keep living with both the good and the bad.
• Tsuji’s breakthrough is admitting, “When it’s someone else’s story… yeah, you do kinda think ‘poor guy’”. So the feeling itself is human and understandable. The issue is how it’s expressed and how it affects his pride.

“Pity” and “looking down” are easy to confuse. Your pain is real even if it’s “not that rare”, and growing up means acknowledging change and finding a workable way to live with it, rather than pretending nothing affects you.

Can't relate to Ryu fully, parents got divorced when I was about 5yo so can't remember anything much just what was explained years later, but reason why it fallen apart is a good life lesson and relationship advice.

Had a fair share of stepdads, guess my mom didn't had much luck and no wonder with her narcissistic ego, another good life lesson and relationship advice.

I'd rather read about it than face it personally tho'


Thanks for the scanlation!
