Thank you for the chapter. This manga keeps making me cry and making me have many emotions

Wait... He fought in the trenches? I thought the Japanese mostly fought trench warfare when they fought the Russians 120 years ago, but he also lived long enough to learn about NEETs?

Not sure how I feel about this. The idea that the dead will be angry or jealous if you keep living and that living partners have to compete with dead ones feels off. Interesting story though.

Wait... He fought in the trenches? I thought the Japanese mostly fought trench warfare when they fought the Russians...

Trench warfare was a part of WWII defenses for the Japanese occupations of Iwo Jima and Okinawa. Bunkers, pillboxes and caves were connected by surface trenches and underground tunnels.

A man divided by two woman, tragic for him but even more for them

I don't know how to feel about this chapter and I don't really like it

The dude played down his attempts at suicide but his wife subtly explained to the ex that he actually kept trying it, not to mention being a dead husk most of the time that she had to constantly look after him. This caused the ex to reconsider her jealousy and realized that the wife did much more for the man than she ever did. Her letting go was symbolized by dropping that comb into the bottom of the river, which of course the man also does next as he finally crosses to the afterlife with the wife. At the same time, the pieces of the comb left in Limbo now serve as an eternal memorial of the man and the ex's young love. This story is definitely one of the saddest I have ever seen.
