Reading this at 4am instead of sleeping, having a nice little cry. Feels...good?

 

[Lililily]

I feel like I understand a lot of thing but also understand nothing at all.

 

[Ore]

This manga heals.

 

[dokidoki]

this ch made me sad with the switcharoo of the sisters sitting on the bed......man that was sad OTL

 

[Pyoro]

Just normal people living normal lives.

Best manga I'm currently reading in most aspects.

@Lililily
I don't feel like I understand anything and actually understand nothing at all.

 

[Serenata]

I feel like it was highschool that changed her sister so hard, like, she probably got shocked with the popular kids (maybe she got bullied like the small girl at Asa's school and decided to change) or the diligent ones and started throwing things out that made her look odd, but her sister didn't have that shock and continued being like always and she hated that, that her sister wasn't the perfect diligent sister that she could boast about with her "pack" .

If you see someone that reminds you of everything you gave up in order to achieve a normal stable life (even at the cost of your dreams like being a singer or an actress) just being herself and trying to pursue her dream without fear, that sting, so (and I know, this is just me rambling) she hated that... Her excuse was that she was protecting Makio of crashing and failing and that it wasn't going to work (society/economy wise) but in truth, maybe she was just jealous because it was working, she is a living proof that it could've worked for her too........... Maybe her sister lived her whole life thinking "I definitely did the right thing".

It might be a big stretch, but I think that part about the bullying was a hint of that.

Man, I’m bawling, something about that switcheroo really hit different.

 

[starlightcitypro]

What a fantastic manga. Thanks for the scans

 

[Purplelibraryguy]

@Serenata Well, we don't know if that's accurate, but it's a pretty decent speculation.

 

[livesofflight]

What an artful chapter, I nourish every panel. Thanks for the great scanlation work.

[BilliusX]

Wow, this series is really hitting its stride. The last few chapters have been amazing. Thanks as alway scanners. I hope you’re all keeping safe.

 

[The_DCG]

This can't be the easiest work to translate, with all the subtleties, but we readers really appreciate the scanlators' hard work. Such a great series about very, very human people.

 

[Darklight99]
