    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 7 Ch. 69 - Light

    There we go... The burden of proof. It is on those who claim there is no bullying. I said last chapter that proof is an ephemeral thing when it comes to this sort of stuff... but, as stated here, the proof is the person or persons being bullied, and those denying the bullying must find proof...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 7 Ch. 68 - Black Mist

    They explained she was making an effort to intervene in past cases, but she had just become so distraught and defeatist, since evidence is not something you can really get when it comes to bullying... or, at least... it doesn't come in the form you expect. You'll see soon enough what I mean...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 7 Ch. 66 - Where the Sun Shines

    After so long with memories you just want to forget... to have so many you now want to cherish... I'll be honest, I've never really done the whole 'diary' thing, but I most certainly understand the sentimental value of such a thing. There's probably also an element of mindfulness associated...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 6 Ch. 63 - Kingdom (PART 2)

    To be honest, I can't recall from the anime if that's what happens. It's definitely a touching scene and a moment of them growing closer to each other. I just... really love these two. I look forward to their continued growth together. ... okay, just went back and rewatched the end of S2E9...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 6 Ch. 61 - Adventurers

    I really liked the ending of this chapter in the anime- the depiction of Nikaido actually having adventures while Rei narrated...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 6 Ch. 60 - Midday Moon

    "I am your father’s brother’s nephew’s cousin’s former roommate." "So what does that make us?" "Absolutely nothing." I appreciate Hayashida's passion, but yeah... Random teacher from another school shows up, why should they listen to him? The problem needs to be solved internally. Also...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 6 Ch. 58 - Start of the Rainy Season

    This teacher's about to have a nervous breakdown. You can see it, but I also know for a fact it's coming. And it's ugly.

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 6 Ch. 57 - Letter

    "When life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 6 Ch. 55 - Confession

    Not the kinds of confessions people usually think about in anime or manga, you know? But still very important ones that actually help strengthen bonds. Shared pains, and affirmations. Rei has been an unofficial part of this family for awhile, now. Soon enough, it'll be probably over a year...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 6 Ch. 54 - Sentiment

    Yeah... Hayashida is worrying, sure, but... I'm pretty sure things work out well in the end. Rei's just a bit too fixated on results and material repayment right now, even though he's emotionally indebted. He's not used to thinking of things in terms outside of what he can calculate and what can...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 5 Ch. 52 - Ladybug Tree (PART 2)

    Yeah, I really enjoyed this scene, and a later, related scene quite a lot in the anime. To me, this is basically Rei more-or-less proposing to Hinata long before he actually proposes (or even confesses or asks her out... that's honestly a big reason why I'm here, too- to continue past the...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 5 Ch. 51 - Ladybug Tree (PART 1)

    No, no... no massacre coming, people. As with the Goto and Kyoko situation(s), the perpetrator ends up being recognized as a victim in their own right, just one that, like them, turned to victimizing others instead of admitting their problems. Didn't stop me from wanting to give the little shit...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 5 Ch. 50 - June

    People be fussing over shoes and height, and I'm all too aware of why Hina is down at the end of this chapter. Brace yourselves, the drama is coming. (for reference, I'm 6'7", or just over two meters, and my shoes are size 13s, thereabouts, which seems to come out to around Kumakura's shoe...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 5 Ch. 49 - Kumakura

    Also something worth noting on the Goto-Kyoko situation... something Yanagihara said the previous chapter, "Don't make Koda cry too much," told me he knew what was going on. Pretty sure he was referring to Kyoko- though I suppose there's a possibility it was about her father, I highly doubt it...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 5 Ch. 48 - Disorder

    I was shocked to see Goto in the adaptation of this chapter saying these decent things in defense of Shimada. We had been presented with such a negative image of him up until this point, as if he was a villain to despise, and here he's telling off hecklers of a character we were made to respect...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 5 Ch. 44 - Small Whispers

    Hina wants to share things with Rei. Rei wants to share things with the Kawamotos in general, but he definitely brightens up seeing Hina in particular, I think. These two are adorable and still unaware. Still awhile yet before they figure things out. Though there's events before then where they...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 4 Ch. 42 - Kyoto (PART 3)

    I think the important take-away here is that Rei and Toya both made the same exact suggestion for how Shimada could have moved forward. The lauded genius and master has similar thinking to our MC. There's been a few points in this volume where this has been pointed out. It becomes even more...

    March Comes in Like a Lion - Vol. 4 Ch. 38 - Passing Time

    You know... I kinda wonder about the way Hinata has been reacting to the Kyoko situation these few chapters. I know about certain developments later, so I can't help but think there's a subconscious interest in any of his relationships with other women. Sure, she's worried he was being treated...

    The Duke of Death and His Black Maid - Vol. 12 Ch. 169 - Troubled Person

    All I could think about, here, was, "I want to know what 'I love you' means!" Violet Evergarden... such a fantastically emotional work. I was crying really good tears through just about every episode, and each of the movies.

    The Duke of Death and His Black Maid - Vol. 12 Ch. 168 - Promise

    What? The titular Duke of the series wasn't cursed until after grandpa Victor's death- he was cursed in front of his tombstone. There was a visual of the tombstone at one point when talking about Victor, in addition to it being shown when the Duke visited the site where he was cursed.
