Hanebado manga is really the worst thing E-V-E-R.
"You did nothing wrong" and "because you two love badminton so much there's no space left for me, goodbye".
This mangaka have some serious issues.
@HOOfan_1: The art's iffy here but the artist fixes it later on. I agree that the manga should've fleshed things out but it's not bad as you're making it out to be. As for Uchika, she's just being retarded due to being embarrassed at the thought of meeting her daughter face to face after so long,
but she'll realize later on that she was wrong. The manga makes it clear that she's wrong and apologetic for what she's done.
Ayano only has abandonment issues and thinks she got replaced by other people cause she wasn't good enough at badminton. Doesn't resent you at all btw.
God knows. But hey, Uchika is the worst mother of the year and apparently, as a father, if you don't step in when your family is falling apart that's just fine.
So a terrible mother and a deadbeat father. No wonder anime Ayano was so gloriously vicious. Really hope the author doesn't try to redeem either of them because no matter what he does, it'll feels like an unsatisfying asspull.
