Class de 2 Banme ni Kawaii Onna no Ko to Tomodachi ni Natta - Ch. 27.2 - Life

[500w]

What kid loves to see their parents devoted to work? In what kind of nighmare world they live?

This is a constant theme i have seen in manga, the subttle message that is ok to put work over personal life, health and responsabilities, they work themselves to an early grave in real life and yet they romanticize it like a cool think to do in manga. Of course is wrong and one of the reasons their society has such a bad decline in birth rate, i try to look at it without judgment to others culture but understending the facts and their consequences.

IT'S NOT OK
I REPEAT
IT'S NOT DAIJOBU

I like how this manga so skillfully hits very sweet and warm moments, while also hitting ya hard with heavy points.

Respect.

I'm reading so many manga here that it's the only way I can keep them straight, especially when there's a delay and something doesn't get updated for a couple of months. I also usually reread the previous chapter before going into the new one.

Have they explained why the parents divorced yet?

Nothing explicit yet, but judging by this chapter and the few previous ones, seems like the dad just fell out of love.
