Thanks for the chapter.

So, now this is Kanae's arc, about her PTSD after saving Fuuka.

@givemersspls I kinda agree it on being drama fatigue, it definitely could use a couple of chapters to let it flow nicely into the buildup. Though I do get where the author is coming from, about showing how trauma can intertwine on someones wellbeing which prevents them from escaping it. Her choice of being alone was nicely put for me at least

Though Im hoping Yuuhi isnt the hero of this story as well, because that would be contrived beyond belief .

@givemersspls I agree 100% on the drama fatigue. I was surprised to find this chapter focusing on the next person to such a degree(naming the entire chapter after them). I expected the author to milk the aftermath "glow" of the solved problem for a bit while setting up the next problem and was looking forward to some shipping shenanigans and what not. Instead, the author jumped right in to the next problem which makes messes up the balance of slice of life/comedy and drama for me.

I think the best way I can describe it is that feeling when you finish a roller coaster and are riding through the low hills to slow down. You're excited and reminiscing about how awesome that drop was, and then instead of stopping, the car doesn't let you off and starts going back to the tallest hill. The whole time you're thinking "What's going on?" and "I didn't agree to this." and "I wanted to look at the pictures. Or at least catch my breath..."

I think the message is a second chance and the aim of this manga is to show that some people have to deal with some serious shit so it's wrong to write them off outright. It's kinda similar to ReLIFE, but here the role of second chance offeror is taken by the principal.

P.S.
Readers: "Whew, the drama is over, now we can enjoy technicolour rainbow."
Autor: "... NO! Let us gaze into depths of Hell!"

so it is said on the front that this manga has a romance tag on it. I take it that guy would be paired with the ptsd girl, and MC with seto?
